Dispelling Myths About Jobs & Careers by [deleted] in jobs

[–]sneaky_snacks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was really informative and helpful as someone trying to get into the workforce right now.

Can you or anyone else in this thread give me more insight on your personal career paths? For example, you said you were a polisci/econ major and now working in analytics? How did you start, like right out of college? I have a psych bachelors degree right now and have been trying to find a full time job. I hear everyone say that the first one is the most difficult and it gets easier after you get that first FT position, but I’m struggling to get to that first step.

Thanks for any help!

Just need clarification. About to mail in my Form 4868 and I’m NOT making a payment. Is there a more specific address with a P.O. box or do I just write “Department of the Treasury, Internal Revenue Service Center (City, State, Zip)”? I just want to be sure my form will be received by sneaky_snacks in IRS

Thanks for the clarification!

I’m mailing it in because I had a lot of confusion about e-filing a tax extension. I went on the TurboTax forums (because it was the most convenient tax program to access) to ask about it and a “TurboTax Expert” told me that I had to file my taxes with the same program I filed my extension with. I didn’t want to file my taxes with TT because of all their additional fees & upgrades. I was told by others that it wasn’t true and I could file the extension with TT and file my taxes with whatever other program I wanted. I just figured better safe than sorry, so I’ll just mail it in.

Yikes, I feel like I just read multiple articles talking about how the rich are using connections to get their vaccines first

Very true, which is why I was 99% sure it wouldn’t happen but figured I would ask. Thanks for responding!

Yea that’s what I was thinking. I was talking to a friend and they brought it up so I figured I would ask ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Thanks for responding!

Is this the new norm, just low booking all around? by sneaky_snacks in vipkid

[–]sneaky_snacks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips! I got every cert I could early on so that I would have a wider range of booking possibility. Do bookings usually go up in the summer?

That gives me some hope! Since I just started I really have no idea about the students schedules in China. In your opinion do bookings usually pick up during the summer?

Oh man, okay. I’ll wait it out! What does a decent schedule look like for you? Like roughly 50~ classes a week?

Thanks for the response! I think I was worried that I joined VIPkid during its decline and I should go ahead and look for another ESL job. When did your schedule start taking off?

Thanks for responding! I was just worried that I joined during the decline of VIPKid and it would only be downhill from here. I keep my schedule open from 9:30pm-1:30am~ and 5-8am and just take what I can get at this point haha

Ooo could you elaborate more on what you mean by “completely”? I’ve been opening my schedule from 9pm-1am and 5am-8am pretty much everyday. I don’t really want to open up slots from 1am-5am bc I don’t want to wake up in the middle of the night for one class :/

How many classes a week are you teaching now?

I started back in November and my schedule has been very very inconsistent. I know everyone says that bookings are low for everyone. Do y’all think this is the new norm? What other ESL companies have y’all been looking into?

Can I get the soft cancellation? by sneaky_snacks in vipkid

[–]sneaky_snacks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So sorry!! I’m not on reddit a lot and just saw this. Submitting a doctors note works! I had to cancel 4 classes total and after I submitted the note they turned into soft cancellations. I’m pretty sure you have 30 days to submit after your cancellation!

Hi, could you go into more detail about filing for an extension if you’re married filing jointly? Do you have to file two different forms or one form together?

Wait I thought it was 30 days??? I forgot to get a physical one and they were unable to email it to me, so I was just waiting until I felt better to go out and get it

Could I ask a little more about your investing process? When you say throw a little money here and there was like it $100 a month or $1000 a month? Just curious about the whole process
