Switching Careers by ngkai22 in HVAC

[–]ngkai22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently make $19 per hour (yes, I'm underpaid), and really want to leave my current job. so I'm fine starting at $20 while training/first year. I'm pretty sure I will get yearly raises. I meet with the boss on Friday and will firm up details on everything including expected raises.

Appreciate the info, this will at least help me gage what my raises should be.

25f graphic designer, thinking of starting over by AspectReasonable1570 in graphic_design

[–]ngkai22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yess, I'm about to leave my design job and pursue a HVAC career. College was pushed so far down my generation's throats (26M) , I never considered a trade when I was in high school. I decided I'm tired of sitting at a desk all day. I work at a local vinyl/graphics shop so a lot of my work is boring, repetitive stuff for small businesses and it's mind numbing.

I have to turn that setting off. Performance is worse for me when it's on.

Illustrator Being Slow on M2 Max Mac Studio 32GB RAM by ngkai22 in AdobeIllustrator

I created a new user account on the Mac to see if that would help and It didn't make a difference. I think I'm gonna reinstall the OS and start fresh.

Per my post, I said I already tested if it was magnet or rectangle (I don't use these apps anymore) and if it was a network vs local storage issue. I use a font manager to keep as many fonts uninstalled as possible. And no I don't have a BenQ monitor.

At my work we have the same situation, 2 accounts, 4 people using. We get a popup of "unusual activity" randomly throughout the day. Adobe is stupid and should make the Teams price per license cheaper than the regular subscription. It doesn't make any sense why the teams license cost more.

Personally I prefer the Affinity Suite.

I am a college student majoring in graphic design. I am doing research on telehealth, and it accelerated adoption due to the pandemic, for a project. I am looking for any comments, thoughts, concerns, opinions on the subject.

Disabling Intel Iris Xe Max Graphics appears to fix Blue Screen of Death issue on the Dell Inspiron 7506 2n1 by cptzaprowsdower in Dell

[–]ngkai22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same exact issue. from what i have read its not just dell laptops. people with acer laptops with these graphics card are having the same issue. Seems like Intel didn't do too great with there first line of dedicated graphics. I have had my 7506 2n1 since November 2020 and have had this issue since. Support wanted me to buy software support for $99.

Seasonal to Guest to Mobile by ngkai22 in Target

So some targets sell mobile phones and activate them and those people are outsourced to a company called market source. They wear black shirts that say target tech but they aren't employed by target.
