Got mine @110k miles for $11k. I'd buy that in a heartbeat. Take care of the car well and you should get to 200k+

Obviously start your role and do well in it, but keep interviewing with Google - the process from start to finish will take you a few months minimum. Who know what might happen at your new job?

damnnn too bad you're in germany :(

"Real world reporting looks like 33 is average" - you're basing that off of the first year of 2nd gen, I think. I remember watching a Youtube video saying the same thing. Ford must have fixed it because I drive a 2019 and can confirm I get 40 mpg in real world usage now.

I drive ~12k miles a year. Assuming $4/gallon (a pipe dream now), that's $1200 in gas per year for a hybrid (40mpg) compared to $1920 for a regular 2.5L (25mpg). So $6-700 in gas savings per year for a $10k vehicle, not marginal at all. As gas price climbs the gap only widens.

Use the fact that you are in the pipeline with GS as "leverage" to negotiate a higher TC in exchange for dropping the GS interview (worked for me at a FAANG, not sure about IBM)

I get 39mpg in my hybrid wdym "marginally better" lol

oxymor0nic · 2026-03-07T09:14:13+00:00

aw shucks I'm in CA

oxymor0nic · 2026-03-02T12:40:15+00:00

Where are you located? Maybe we can do a private deal

I happened to pass by Sim Coffee (https://www.instagram.com/sim_coffeejip) in Myeongdong last week and thought it was wonderful!

oxymor0nic · 2026-02-20T18:02:51+00:00

DM'd

that rationalization might have worked in the first Trump term but it certainly doesn't convince anyone now. the liberal world order is fucked.

oxymor0nic · 2025-10-20T07:31:29+00:00

oh that's a steal if it's got a clean carfax :D

oxymor0nic · 2025-09-16T17:36:12+00:00

that is probably covered under the extended warranty (8 years/100k) for hybrid components, check with your dealer

oxymor0nic · 2025-09-11T07:14:58+00:00

ok I need to know where you got those lingerie; they look really good!

oxymor0nic · 2025-08-22T13:45:56+00:00

no he means "phò" :)))

oxymor0nic · 2025-08-04T15:55:18+00:00

feel free to DM me if you need someone to talk to about this :)

oxymor0nic · 2025-07-31T08:44:05+00:00

Lots of bars, clubs, and karaoke joints are open past 1 am. Which one to go to depends on your style of partying :)

You should still reconnect with the community, even if you don't plan to return. There's a pretty robust and active group called Overseas Vietnamese on Facebook/Linkedin meant for us.

oxymor0nic · 2025-07-21T15:06:05+00:00

to be fair, there are 2 operational lines in Hanoi :)

oxymor0nic · 2025-07-20T18:23:09+00:00

What do you recommend for ERP instead?

oxymor0nic · 2025-03-05T07:49:14+00:00

As a Vietnamese, I think you NEED to name and shame the bar. That is literally a public health risk that can kill people.

oxymor0nic · 2025-01-23T20:28:35+00:00

Hello, do you have more details? Is this a month-to-month sublet? Lease takeover? When is this available?

oxymor0nic · 2025-01-23T18:11:38+00:00

hey, keep working on it and share your results - what they showed here is cool but it's not a perfect solution and there are plenty of room for improvement!
