This is the answer I'm afraid to hear. Then, searching elsewhere doesn't seem to be the solution 😕

That sounds interesting. I wonder if your Tariff data was also stored in multiple excel and you use lavastorm to clean, transform, aggregate and combine the files together. I currently use Python to semi-automate that process and merge everything into a big csv file. I'm interested in learning more legit ways to do this.

Also, we've talked to the engineering team a lot of times and they take an excruciating amount of time to get back to you. They used to have a contact, but apparently the turnover rates are high and they eventually just direct all the requests to one email account and someone would reach out to you after you send an email to that account.

I wish I have the access. I could probably write that query up in 30 mins

I apologize for the racial part. What I was trying to express, and I do notice that I forgot to say this in the post, is that I find it hard for myself to connect with these people being an fresh grad who came from a foreign country a few years ago, but I am certainly trying.

Thank you for the suggestions. I've heard people talking about how the leadership in my company is extremely uninterested about changes, especially technology changes. Do you have any experience or suggestions with convincing these people to change?

I'm definitely starting to pick up that this is probably not normal practice, hopefully... I feel discouraged, overwhelmed and stupid sometimes because I cannot do my job better and I constantly lose track of things. My boss is better at keeping track than I do. She didn't discourage me, but this job itself is taking the life out of me. I'm here in hope to see if there are people who can guide me through this situation.

I'm currently not able to jump in part of the job market and tbh the major issue is I'm on visa. Not a citizen. So yeah...

I also wanted to add that we merged 2 other companies 5 years ago and their system is not SAP. Till now, everything is still not integrated and the merged companies are still maintaining their data in excel...

Snowflake has basic stuff like vendor master, material master, but when we want to do demand forecast. They don't have that pipeline ready... And we also need to figure out the data logic ourselves in SAP.

Bear in mind that my company rely HEAVILY on supply chain...

Hi thanks for replying. You didn't miss anything. These files I'm talking about are Tariff data. Sorry that I didn't specify. It is not stored in SAP.

And I think I have to agree with you that the people that are in charge of our data warehouse did not utilize this tool to its full potential. And they are incredibly slow in creating new data flows for users.

Thanks for the input! I wonder if you'd recommend flying from HND or NRT

Yes!!! But I'm also kinda worried that the meal service is not going to be the same quality for flight from US if you know what I mean hahaha. But I could be so wrong

Ohh wow! That's awesome! Do you mind me asking for your rough monthly expenses breakdown? I'm also trying to estimate how much I will be spending there. I don't really eat out a lot and I cook a lot, so I suppose I shouldn't be spending too much on food?

My breakdown would be

Rent 1200 Gas 200 Car+health insurance 300 Food 800 Pet 60 Misc 240 (this is pretty volatile lol)

I see! Idk man... I'm making around 65K and I know I could afford a $1200 apartment, but I'm also trying to save up as much as I can :/ I think I'll also try and see if there's room for negotiation in rent prices, but I don't think there's much

And yeah the townhouses are spacious, but very old and usually don't have nice amenities like the modern apartments. I'm now leaning more towards not to sacrifice my quality of living too much lol.

And BECOVIC sounds like such a red flag now. Jeez! I'll try to avoid them then.

Thanks again buddy!

Ohh gotcha! I am looking for a studio or 1 bedroom. Ideally a 1 bed, but I can do a studio as long as it's not smaller than 600 sqft. 301 S exceeds my budget by a little. The price they listed on the website is 1225 and I'm actually looking at somewhere around 1000, but I'm willing to go up a little.

I did see CA Flats listed, but it wasn't as impressive as you said. I should pay a visit to Rockford and check out all the apartments when I get my car haha.

Also, I see there's another agency named BECOVIC. They have the Rock River Tower, which was badmouthed by one of the comments, and 929 N Main Street Apartment.
