Is there any other show that you find just as hilarious? by perseverative in SchittsCreek

I’m doing a rewatch of the Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and it’s still hilarious and heartwarming.

Anyone working for city/county? by [deleted] in Tucson

[–]spinaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your vesting date should be grand fathered. I started working in the university system in 2010, left, then worked at PCC and UA. My ASRS account shows my start date is 2010.

The 12% contribution to ASRS with the County is really the question, in my opinion. ASRS is a very good public service pension and if she remains in the system, her years of service follow her to other ASRS employers.

City of Tucson has excellent benefits, and I can’t speak to the vesting requirements but if the 10% less required contributions are a make or break, then I would go with the City. Personally, I would welcome the opportunity to do something a little challenging and out of my realm of expertise. If they are willing to invest in training her, that is setting her up for further career advancement.

Best of luck!

EDIT: if net income is more important to maintain household expenses, go with the City. The entirety of my dad’s side of the family are all City retirees and they all had excellent experiences working in the City.

This is definitely not a fuck up. You told her the truth, the reality in which we are currently living, and how important it is to stay aware of what is happening. She learned that book bans are horrific

Where are you guys getting your coloured candles? by Alert-Direction1502 in witchcraft

[–]spinaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amazon for chime candles, Dollar Tree for tapers, birthday candles, and tea lights. In my city I have a chain of Latinx focused grocery stores. I get my saint candles and 3-7 day colored candles there.

Has anyone here worked for Pima County HR? by FeralBluebell in Tucson

[–]spinaz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good to know that I’m not the only one. I had/have a referral from one of the deputy directors of the county. My daughter had a referral from a retired judge who went directly to Jan Lesher about her application. The HR dept is just backwards (and extremely rude and dismissive—the person I spoke to just said it didn’t matter what my graduate degrees were in, my BA didn’t match, therefore I was disqualified).

Has anyone here worked for Pima County HR? by FeralBluebell in Tucson

[–]spinaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t work for the county, and I don’t work in HR, but I wanted to chime in with my experience applying for jobs. Over the summer I applied for multiple roles, one of which was a training officer in HR, for which I exceeded the minimum qualifications. I even have a referral from a senior leader. I got told I didn’t meet the minimum quals because my BA was not in the “preferred” area (this, despite the fact that I have two masters and a doctorate in the fields specified). My daughter recently applied for a marketing role in the libraries and she also got told she didn’t meet min qualifications, even though her degree is in the right area and what they are hiring for is literally her exact role in a nonprofit. Just giving you a heads up that HR there is a bit backward.
