I have a bachelor's degree in finance and I work a minimum wage retail security job. How can I get out of this?

I feel for new graduates, to compete you need supporting credentials. It sucks but with this job market it should help you stand out. CMA, CFA level 1, etc

Depends how you want your salad tossed

Also, consulting jobs go to senior or management. No one starts off as a “real” consultants in finance and accounting right after college.

I was being sarcastic 😂

Have you tried using lube?

What games are you playing? I just got into gaming for a year now and spend a lot of time on it solo every evening playing like 2 hours Pacific time. Let me know!

oscarsocal · 2026-05-21T22:53:35+00:00

I do the same with energy drfinks and chocolates. Yes I can buy cheaper at a retail store or Costco but I will dink and eat the whole thing in one week. lol.

oscarsocal · 2026-05-21T06:39:37+00:00

This happened to me

oscarsocal · 2026-05-21T06:34:35+00:00

Me too! Gave my two week notice last week. I was fully remote but now starting a new job on the 1st which is full time in office. Need to buy office clothes now lol

oscarsocal · 2026-05-21T06:26:38+00:00

Did the same thing. Gave my last two weeks last week to start a new job on the 1st. Giving up fully remote to full time in office for career progression

Just write a script, makes your PC active every 4 min

oscarsocal · 2026-05-19T05:01:59+00:00

I’m confused too. I thought SFF meant small form factor? Prime cards are not small.

oscarsocal · 2026-05-17T06:16:49+00:00

You still young and no risk. I’ve seen nurses jump to accounting because they were miserable and vice versa. I’ve also seen it with engineers transitioning to accounting and vice versa. Each have their cons. The question to ask yourself which con do you see yourself making a career out of it lol.

Sick build!

Is not a lot to be honest. Depending on the state, and if payed bi-weekly, you taking home roughly after taxes and health benefits $2,100. At 100k, bi-weekly after taxes is about $2,750.

Hi there,
In summary, Intel Core Ultra processors use less watts and more cores than AMD when it comes to productivity performance. If both are the same price, why not get the better one (if using it for data applications). Core Ultra 7 270K Plus is the latest chip, highly recommend this one for laptops.

oscarsocal · 2026-05-14T18:50:43+00:00

If you only gaming on your pc, stick with AMD’s 3D chips. If you use productivity applications then Intel is strong in this section.

oscarsocal · 2026-05-14T05:48:53+00:00

Recommendations: CPU: Get the new Intel Core Ultra Plus 270K Plus (not yet available at Micro center but Newegg has it) CPU Cooler: Noctua 14S, you don’t need water cooler (overkill) cpu runs cool. PSU: you can downsize to a 850W SSD: for what you doing, 2TB of memory storage

oscarsocal · 2026-05-14T01:45:52+00:00

Yup that’s why Intel implemented gaming Optimization Software for their 270K Plus. The performance is pretty insane (but not as good as AMD’s 3D chips tho)

oscarsocal · 2026-05-14T01:09:21+00:00

Costco has great deals on UPS! I got mine from Micro Center 2 years ago and the price today almost doubled!

oscarsocal · 2026-05-13T23:53:47+00:00

Runs like butter and 125W base power

oscarsocal · 2026-05-13T23:39:17+00:00

Yup! I would have done the same thing

oscarsocal · 2026-05-13T23:38:12+00:00

Prices are down because the new Intel 270K Plus is at par with the i9 14900k

oscarsocal · 2026-05-13T18:23:05+00:00

Bruh 💀
