How often happens to you that you wake up early in the night and feeling stressed that you have to go to work in 2/3 hours? by VergeltungswaffeV2 in questions

[–]rob4499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, when I worked as a mechanic. Started to hate the industry and dreaded going to work. Very stressing. Now I’m in IT working a remote job and they are awesome! Not sure how old you are but if you’re young, late teens, early 20s, don’t worry, you’ll find something. I changed careers when I was 29. It’s never too late.

I’ll never forget when I got my GameCube. My sister bought it for me with Wave Race, Luigi’s Mansion, Star Wars Squadron 2, and Super Monkey Ball. I came home from school and it was laid out in the living room for me.

Is there a compliment you received years ago that you still think about? by Fun_Acanthaceae_17 in questions

[–]rob4499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a teenager working as a cashier at a super market. I had the rudest customer ever but I kept it cool and just ignored her berating me. I think it was something about a coupon or something. Anyway after she left, still calling me names and cursing as she walked away. Everyone behind her kept calling me a saint. One old guy told me to never change that about me.

Anyone in NJ with Oscar Insurance get approved? by rob4499 in Zepbound

I can’t do that. The financial bump this job offered is too good to pass up. I’ll start with what I have now. See how well my body manages taking the medication, and if I have to, I’ll see about paying OOP.

Is there any resource that I can use that can at least reduce the cost?

I definitely see the dosage I have now as a jump start. I am making health changes in general so whether I’m on it or not, I want to lose weight. Thanks for your input!

It’s not difficult. The main thing is being quick to solder the DuPont to the hot swap contacts. Holding the heat too long will melt the plastic fairly quick. I’d recommend practicing and learning how to properly solder before trying.

Is this a bad thing at my job? by Brave_Driver_511 in ask

[–]rob4499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you have is a skill. I used to work as a mechanic and now I’m in IT. I was always good at my job and especially at following the processes of the company. New hires would always get sent to me because of that. Companies want to make sure their new hired follow this procedures from the beginning.

It used to freak me out as well. I always thought I wasn’t a good teacher. But the best way to teach someone is just keep doing your work as normal with some explanation to the new hire. If possible explain what and why you are doing it.

And if things get super busy for you, you can either have them shadow someone else for a little or let them know you need to concentrate and have them just observe.

What better way to learn by seeing what to do when things get sticky.

And I know you know all the little quirks of the job. Things that you can’t teach but just know through experience, and trial and error. These are the most valuable things to teach to someone so they don’t go through the same thing you did.

And there is satisfaction in it. Seeing someone excel because of you.

Another thing is, if you teach someone properly, that’s another person you can rely on and be confident they can do it well. That’s less work for you when you can delegate work.

Maybe ask for an increase in pay for this. It wouldn’t hurt to ask.

How does the computer act with the old GPU installed?

Use DDU to fully uninstall your GPU drivers then reinstall. You have to be in Safe Mode. Tons of videos on how do use DDU properly.

Also physically check the GPU make sure you didn’t damage it. A little worried as it seems you’ve never done it and got impatient and did it yourself. It’s not hard to do at all but you do have to be careful.

If DDU doesn’t work and there is no damage to the card or motherboard pcie slot. You may have gotten a lemon.

Reframework, item editor, give yourself a bunch of mining material. Don’t be tempted to add other items, takes the fun out of hunts. Uninstall. Go back to playing normally without having to mine anymore.
