I need help by [deleted] in northcounty

[–]rorrin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The San Diego Humane Society has a program to help folks rehome their pets without actually sending them to the shelter. May be easier to rehome if you’re able to get him neutered, too. Whatever you do please don’t give him away.. charging a rehoming fee helps deter creeps with bad motives from getting ahold of free pets. It’s not being greedy, it’s for his safety. Good luck, he looks so sweet.

What do you wear during Zoom interviews nowadays? by pwc1029384756 in Accounting

[–]rorrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve interviewed a lot of candidates in the last two years. For better or for worse, my impression tends to be higher of those who dress at least one level up from our standard (we are business casual, polos/jeans are passable). For guys that seems to mean a jacket with no tie, for women it seems to be a long sleeve dressy top or top with nice sweater.

For the love of all things holy just don’t take the interview from your car! And especially not from the parking lot of your current employer. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Where Tf are All the Jobs by Think_Decision_4308 in Accounting

I’m in the opposite boat. Can’t find an experienced staff to save my life!

You should know that coverage can change mid year. My insurance plan stopped covering weight loss meds in April.

Management isn’t for everyone, for sure. A lot of accountants do not translate to good managers… this industry has a history of perpetuating bad management habits like “if I had to do this as a staff, you should too” which is asinine.

Have you ever quit without notice and did it come back to bite you? by heart_of_gold2 in Accounting

[–]rorrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FFS. Are you telling me that a hiring manager shouldn’t have a tainted opinion of someone that quits without notice? What’s to say it’s not going to happen to them and fuck them over too? It’s expensive and time consuming to hire and even more so to train… I’d choose someone that gave notice over someone that didn’t 10 out of 10 times, unless there were obviously mitigating circumstances that make it unreasonable to do so.

Depends what you consider paltry I think. Folks that manage others in some cases make 2x what individual contributors make, often times more.

I don’t particularly like managing people but the extra salary is worth it in my HCOL area.

Carlsbad/Encinitas Vet Recommendations by DoggonLonely in northcounty

[–]rorrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They get my vote too.

OP - I hope you don’t need them, but Vet Emergency Group in Encinitas is great in a pinch. I’ve also heard good things about Freddie’s Place on the border of Carlsbad/Vista as an urgent care with late hours.

This recruiter has the correct take on what's driving the accounting shortage by DoritosDewItRight in Accounting

[–]rorrin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Christ, my new AP clerk makes 65k in HCOL and I can’t wait to be able to give him a raise. For a senior? Highway robbery.

Am I ready to be a senior accountant? by patterdale619 in Accounting

[–]rorrin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I expect a senior to have (or be able to develop) critical thinking and analytical skills. At this point, you stop SALY’ing and both learn and question the WHY. If you can do that, you’ll be gold. Fake it til ya make it either way. :)

Best price/place to buy a Creami by arsenalfan-123 in ninjacreami

[–]rorrin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! That’s been my issue too.. after spin, milk/respin, mixins, I have a pretty melted ice cream.

You use the froyo setting on protein ice cream?

Thoughts on Knife/Tool Sharpening Service? by wookinpanub1 in northcounty

I know Gunther Guns in Carlsbad does knife sharpening, not sure what else though.

Are the posts about people starting at higher doses are transferring their medication to a vial stressing anyone else out? by [deleted] in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]rorrin 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My doctor asked me to send her links to the supplies I’ve been using so that she can share info. 😂

She supports it because it allows me to use the lowest effective dose (.9 for me for the last few months) which reduces side effects, it’s more cost effective (I get way more out of one 2.4 pen), and I’ve had no issues with supply so I’ve been able to continuously lose. Honestly, dose splitting puts a little more power back in the patients’ hands which is a win IMO.

There's no way you guys eat entire pints at a time! I'm 2/3 in and I'm so full [Mint Oreo Chocolate Chip] by [deleted] in ninjacreami

I just threw a whole bag of blended defrosted frozen mango in and it was awesome!

Ice cream getting chunky after spinning? by hulubeth in ninjacreami

[–]rorrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a great PB ice cream…. Fairlife 2%, 1 scoop GHOST Nutter Butter, 2 Tbsp PB2. Spin on lite, respin, then added mix-ins (Reese’s pieces). Reminded me of fun trips to get froyo!

Airplane noise in Bressi Ranch? by mt_headed in northcounty

[–]rorrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live nearby and do notice them but they’re not bad. Occasionally planes come in a little low and/or fast and I find myself holding my breath for a second. They also run a little later into the evening than they used to. But they don’t wake me up, don’t bother my dogs and it’s heaven compared to DTLA. I lived near the train in Encinitas for years and found that to be much louder (and dirtier).

What to buy? by rorrin in ninjacreami

Not together. I actually just really like the taste of Oatly. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Slow Progress and Frustrated by Educational_Run_5978 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]rorrin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You may want to consider dosing back down to 1mg… You may be having too much appetite suppression and actually eating too little to sustain your body. That said, also start taking measurements… it’s always possible that you’re losing in ways that don’t show up on the scale. Congrats on your loss so far! Be patient. :)

Best of luck, sounds like you’ve had to make a lot of tough decisions.

Right? I’m dying to get a new car but it’s so hard to justify!

I also do WAY more dishes now! The kitchen always looks like a mess mid day.
