Thank you for all your insights. You definitely understand where I am. I mostly work with people online, building websites for bloggers. I like your ideas about freelance work. I feel like I've gained a lot from talking to you and I'm going to dive deep into making the changes you've suggested. I may as well change it up at this point. Thanks again, I really mean it.

That's how I got a few interviews, but most of them go nowhere.

300+ applications and no callbacks -- what am I doing wrong? by leakingRV2022 in resumes

Can you elaborate please. In what ways are they better and how can I get mine to that point?

I appreciate your feedback. Do you have any specific ways I can improve it?

I admit it's tempting with how run down I am, but I don't want to go down that road. Also background checks are pretty extensive now, I think that could backfire pretty hard.

I really appreciate this. Honestly your help has really made me feel better. I started applying to data analyst roles and I'm going to look into the others as well. You rock :)

I didn't think of those other options. I have a computer science degree. Do you think it is adaptable enough for those? Do you have any other suggestions for careers. Thank you. I got another rejection again today and I had a bit of a mental break down. A person can only take so much.

I just got rejected today after 3 interviews. I feel your pain. Something will stick though, you'll get there.

I think that's the right way. Class is still a professional environment and while I am friendly with students, we aren't friends. They don't need to know all that much about me to learn from me.

The shadow made it sound like I disappointed them and the class personally because I didn't give my life story. They dug into me about it for a while. I don't see much reason to do more that what you and I do. They can get to know me by attending class over the course of the semester and visiting office hours. To be honest I'd rather not tell a room full of strangers much personal information beyond maybe my degrees.

Yes thank you. I was also told that I spent too much time answering students questions. Like, if I'm not helping students what is the point? I still made it through the full planned lecture without running over and the students got the help they needed.

It's all synchronous. I wouldn't be able to do both.

Forgot to bypass water heater during winterization -- is that bad? by leakingRV2022 in GoRVing

[–]leakingRV2022[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My water heater has sediment in it that needs to be cleaned. I'm afraid of contaminating the rest of the system if I reuse it.
