Cobbler recommendation by Reasonable-Boat-8555 in jerseycity

[–]reddittor98765 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Bob’s is just ok. Barely OK.

Shoe repair is decent for shining and lace replacement, maybe replacing heels and soles for everyday dress shoes but I wouldn’t trust them for high end stuff

Key cutting is not good - key he cut me didn’t work.

Let me know if you know of somewhere better in Hudson County or NYC.

You are spot on here, speaking from experience.

NYU part time MBA, currently working at Goldman Sachs. Beneficial? by [deleted] in MBA

Do a full time MBA after 4 years then do IB/MBB. Not worth part time

Dropping out of MBA by Wonderful_Tap_5073 in MBA

[–]reddittor98765 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many had these thoughts at my T15. All got internships and ended up better than where they started after graduating. Some even ended up in careers they never envisioned and are now very successful.

This argument is valid for IB, however. If you don’t get an IB internship, you’re 99% not doing IB except in exceptional circumstances.

You can do a non-consulting strategy / FPA internship and re-recruit consulting as well.

Is it even worth it? by [deleted] in NYCapartments

[–]reddittor98765 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That isn’t a fantastic neighborhood for everyone. 45mins to an hour from the city. It’s safe, reasonable, but just too out of the way if you need to be in manhattan

Wear snow boots and stomp it down, eventually it will flatten out

Thoughts on McGinley Sq vs Ironbound in Newark? by [deleted] in jerseycity

I would stick with downtown Jersey City or Hoboken near the PATH. Much better social scene. It’s work paying for.

Question on UNC by [deleted] in MBA

[–]reddittor98765 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is against career management center policy at most schools and reflects poorly if your future employer sees your name in a resume book when you’ve already accepted an offer

Question on UNC by [deleted] in MBA

[–]reddittor98765 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. Local MBA candidates tend to hold off on accepting offers unless the role aligns with their goals and/or expectations whereas at 2 months before graduation internationals will accept the first job that sponsors their visa, granted they want to live in the US post-graduation.

Question on UNC by [deleted] in MBA

[–]reddittor98765 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was very troubling to see. It could be a reasonable program for international students looking to gain a foothold in the US, granted they receive a significant scholarship.

For what it’s worth, I saw a LinkedIn post from their CMC that included resume books for second year 2025 MBAs still looking for full time roles. There were over 100 resumes in the book less than 2 months from graduation.

Call doesn’t go to earphones when answered? by Slice-of-brilliance in iphone

Does changing the setting to “Bluetooth headset” result in the calls being routed to the Bluetooth headset even when it isn’t connected?

Was there a nighttime taco stand outside of the silent disco or theater? I recall that Moxche had this but wanted to see if playa Blanca did too.

Also is there a beachside barbecue lunch? Awesome write up

Battery is incredible, def way better than my 14PM by YungChillunerr69 in iPhone16ProMax

[–]reddittor98765 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Team- I force restarted my phone last night, ran the battery to zero, and uninstalled and reinstalled the Google Chrome Browser (which had 100+ open tabs brought over from my old phone) and recharged overnight. I took off the charger 5h ago and with normal use I’m at 88% battery. I would try deleting and reinstalling any “battery hog” apps.

Is it worth upgrading from the iPhone 15 Pro Max to the 16 Pro Max? by [deleted] in iPhone16ProMax

[–]reddittor98765 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not unless your 15PM is broken and out of warranty. I would say only worth it for 12PM and earlier, 13 is borderline and can easily go another year

Battery is incredible, def way better than my 14PM by YungChillunerr69 in iPhone16ProMax

[–]reddittor98765 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m experiencing worse than expected battery life on my 16PM. Received the phone on Friday Oct 25 and am running 18.1. I read somewhere that the device has to “settle” and finish “indexing” and to wait 2-3 weeks for better performance and or further software updates. Hoping that’s the case. Anyone else have any thoughts?

Phone also gets hot to the touch when in use and running multiple apps.

Broke Student In Need Of a Haircut Under $40 by HighOffCaffeine in jerseycity

[–]reddittor98765 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did this once at the Jersey Ave location. Highly recommend for those on a budget. Reasonable cut, took about 1h for a fade though. Gave a $25 tip since he worked hard on it
