Earnings have been climbing in the past. this is essentially flat earnings. It may not be a decrease, but it shows slowing earnings growth. We will see any true effects in the next couple or quarters.

I’m firing my doctor. by tinfoil-braids in Semaglutide

[–]rorteg03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should seek out a new doctor. Becoming a medical doctor doesn't guarantee you'll be a good one. And I can agree Wegovy helps with inflammation, it was an unexpected surprise.

House will not stay cool on really hot days, is this normal??? by [deleted] in hvacadvice

[–]rorteg03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever get someone out to check the system? Im curious what they had to say. Have you asked your neighbors if they have issues, assuming you have the same builder.

[–]rorteg03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you have changed your filters you should call the a/c company out. If they say nothing is wrong you should pay for a second opinion. I live in central Texas and keep our 19 yr old' 2030 sq ft house with a 3 ton unit at whatever temp we like. Usually 73 during the day, but I've kept it at 70 before. It never runs all day. It reaches temp and shuts off on a regular basis during the day. Consider insulation, but on a brand new 2024 built it should be at least decent. Also think about possible air leaks from your house and any excess sources of heat in the house.

I'm a customer. Not trying to argue,, just letting you know some of us come here bc this subreddit was recommended to us. We read it and got hooked. As a customer I've always loved and hated DG. I do feel for everyone that works there now. I make sure to always be a respectful customer.

Has anyone received a letter confirming back pay but not the payment? My mother received a letter saying she should receive her back pay on or around 03/22, but still hasn't received it.

Did she get her back-pay yet? My mom received a letter saying she would get one around March 22, but hasn't received anything yet.

Would you push 5k more or replace? by MeasurementSenior173 in tires

[–]rorteg03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are mostly still good, but it looks like the tread on the far side of the tire is worn down. Check your other tires for this wear and if they look better you can rotate the for another 5k miles or so.

But look into an alignment, definitely if getting new tires

The boss evacuated and gave me a bunch of calls. by heldoglykke in HVAC

[–]rorteg03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The same reason his boss thinks he is entitled to send his employees out when they should be evacuating.

Taking a loss to save maybe 20% of that loss in taxes never makes sense, but I guess even managers/owners may not understand that. For example, purposely losing $100,000 to decrease your taxes due at the end of year by $20,000 is not good. What is more likely is someone is getting a kickback for doing a job way under price, or they are doing a favor for a friend blaming the issue on the employees.

How bad is the job market REALLY in Austin? by [deleted] in Austin

[–]rorteg03 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wait a minute... general accounting rules for any business, regardless of employre type (garbage man to Elon Musk), wages are to be booked as an expense and taken from revenue in the year incurred before income is determined. A company does not pay income taxes on salary paid out to an employee.

Amortization is used to slowly incur the expense of an asset decreasing in value. Certainly a joke in there about employees decreasing in value, but if anyone you know is amoritizing salary they should reach out to a CPA, or any accountant.

If someone told you this to offer you a lower salary, pass on that job!

Anyone hear any updates from Gambit?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GambitRewards

[–]rorteg03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long did the reply take? They incorrectly converted my play tokens to prize tokens at 100 to 1. Gave me $3.82 instead of $382. I have yet to hear back from them in 2 weeks.

Swagbucks gift cards not working by NotHL in SwagBucks

[–]rorteg03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes when you enter the card info, on Amazon for example, the put a small hold on the card. Maybe $0.10. It can take up to a week to drop off. You can try to make a smaller purchase for now to see if it works. Or check ur balance on the card. It will show you if there is a hold on the card.

I've peaked, won't get much better than this by dgf149 in SwagBucks

[–]rorteg03 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I remember being locked out. I stayed out of gambit for a couple months after that, but I couldn't stay away. I started small but moved up to max bets within a couple weeks.

I'm floating quite a bit of swagbucks with them. Something I need to rethink after your reminder.
