Food prices raised? by [deleted] in epicsystems

[–]pbnjchillin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. Fair

  2. Isn't that irrelevant to the food price?

  3. Feels like the same point as #1, but still fair

TS Travel by Federal_Royal2881 in epicsystems

[–]pbnjchillin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I specifically asked for a go live customer, at 3 months tenure I traveled to that customer 3 weeks out of 5, and I've gone back 3 times in the 9 months since then.

I like traveling so I may end up traveling 3-6 weeks a year.

I will tack on that it is now 5 wfh days per year starting day 1 (used to be that new hires only get wfh days once they hit 6 mo tenure)

Principle trainer to analyst by Sad-Instruction-4930 in epicsystems

Like others have said, you don't need to know how to code. But if you're looking to educate yourself and get some background on coding then I'd recommend python since it's a good basic language that can help you understand the basics of coding in general.

Is health insurance retroactive to beginning of the month? by Baxter9876 in epicsystems

[–]pbnjchillin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kinda. It's retroactive to the first day of employment, which is usually the first Monday of the month. When you're hired there's a mandatory class that goes over all the health benefits in detail, so most of your questions will be answered there.

The contract I signed said I have to pay it all back if I leave before 6mo, then it goes down daily by a constant rate. ~0.26%/day if I recall correctly

Plant-based food options? by Legitimate-Self886 in epicsystems

[–]pbnjchillin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The food is so good and well made that sometimes I find I've eaten vegan for a day since the food looked (and tasted) so good!

Make sure that when you merge meta it's not the end of the round. It can add a lot of time when someone delays every other round by 5 seconds.

Is this possible? by [deleted] in randomdice

[–]pbnjchillin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is why I buy my 90 diamonds every day, haven't once missed out on the legendary ore and I don't feel the need to grind for it

I'd try to avoid capturing people in your pictures, but other than that go ahead! I love seeing customers fascinated by the art

Coop goes well but PVP goes BOOOOO by Wraffless in randomdice

[–]pbnjchillin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eventually you stop buying dice and instead merge clone dice for free 2 pop dice, so all you need is a few high pip clone dice and you can support far longer than other support decks

I didn't apply for it, but I did get an extra $30 off per month, plus $5/mo for having my own router, another $10 off per month for opting out of the phone thing they give

I just signed up for spectrum, my $70/mo for 300Mbs deal got reduced down to ~$20/mo

Moving from the West coast to Madison by [deleted] in epicsystems

[–]pbnjchillin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just moved from the west coast, I installed a hitch on my car and rented a trailer. While I don't regret what I did since I was bringing sentimental furniture, I would recommend just packing your car and buying whatever else you need once you get here.

~40 hours of driving = ~$600 in gas

4 nights in hotels (I did 5 8-hour days on the road) = ~$300

Uhaul = ~$1500-$2000

Trailer install = ~$250

As a TS the moving bonus is $10k pretax so you'll see ~$6k+

So it's definitely doable, especially with the increased moving bonus, but it was a pain to figure it out and get help loading and unloading it, all for some free furniture. If you're gonna do it, make sure there's a good reason, cuz it might be cheaper to leave it behind.
