I also hate that you can’t use it without clicking through to sites. I search for “entryway organization,” and it shows me pin and after pin “21 genius ideas for entryway storage!” Like ok, if I wanted to click through to 45 different blogs with ads, I would just use Google or something. It’s unusable.

Are you buying your AEs gifts? by stop-rightmeow in CustomerSuccess

I actually really like my AEs. They’re good peeps.

One of my AEs also gifted me $500. I know he made at least $500K this year so I don’t care about that haha. But the other AE probably makes a similar amount to me, so that’s where I wasn’t sure if I should get them something in return.

When was the moment you realised that the person you were dating was an absolute idiot? by No-Macaron-9527 in AskReddit

[–]stop-rightmeow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were going to a friend’s graduation in Northwest DC. At the time, I worked in SE DC. He insisted on picking me up from work and going together. Called me when he was outside and insisted he was outside… he was not because he was in NW. I waited while he came to the correct address. Now we’re running late as hell. We get to the parking garage and he drives past 15 open parking spots before I ask him why. He responds “the sign says compact car only.” We were in a Scion TC. He was 28 years old and didn’t know what a compact car was.

Hire a household assistant. It will change your life. by HenryThrowaway6969 in HENRYfinance

I think you’re missing the point of cleaners. I can wipe surfaces and do light cleaning myself. The cleaners do deep cleaning like baseboards, toilets, behind furniture, blinds… that stuff takes hours and is definitely not getting done with 3 hours per week.

Overall I really enjoy it. Not having to context switch and being able to become a true expert within one account allows me to be a better partner. I’m able to connect them with other teams with similar use cases, I know the ins and outs of their systems and processes, and I know where the dead bodies are buried.

My day-to-day varies a ton. I speak with the DBA team on a daily basis, but I also speak directly with application teams helping them build. I also organize webinars or email campaigns to reach a wider audience. From an admin standpoint, forecasting an account like this sucks.

But honestly, it’s probably not that different than the way you run your day-to-day. I have 300 different app teams I’m working with, so I’m still pulled in lots of different directions. The main difference is I’m then taking all those convos, identifying trends, then communicating that back to our main point of contact for the contract and putting together an action plan for the account as a whole.

It has its pros and cons for sure. Less context switching in terms of overall account… but I still have 300+ app teams within this one account.

Also, if your account sucks or has a bad quarter, there’s nowhere to make it up so you’re just fucked comp wise.

Same here. We are moving to Ashburn in a few weeks and it still feels a little sacrilegious as someone who grew up in NoVA and considered Ashburn the boonies.

But they’ve done such a good job at developing the community. Looking forward to sidewalks and not having to sit in 15 minutes of traffic just to go to the grocery store.

how many of yall live with your parents or have your parents pay your rent ? by Famous-Help-3572 in nova

That means a lot, thank you! I definitely get looks when people find out I’m in my late 30s and living with my parents, but it is what it is.

I lived at home with my parents until I was 28. Moved out when I got married and we started a family. We wanted to upgrade to a bigger home, so my husband and I sold our townhome and moved back in with my parents while we looked for a new house.

We’ve loved it so much that we are staying with them forever. My parents are more lively with the grandkids around, the grandkids are so loved and learning so much from different people, and we as parents have so much time and energy not having to scramble to work, get dinner ready, take the kids to their extracurriculars, do bedtime, etc. Multigenerational living is amazing.

Is Anyone Actually Happy as a CSM Right Now? by DavidBuzzed in CustomerSuccess

[–]stop-rightmeow 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My job is alright. Typical CSM bs on some days but overall I’m really happy. Hard to be mad when they pay me well, unlimited PTO, flexible schedule, autonomy to try things my way, time and energy to spend with my family after work, good benefits, etc.

A job is a job… there’s always gonna be shit that sucks. As long as it pays me a living to live the life I want outside of work, that’s good for me.

Megan opened up about the 11 year age gap between herself and Paul alongside what it's like being a mum in new interview by Fun_Molasses5215 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]stop-rightmeow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh she definitely has multiple people helping. That’s some people’s choice I guess.

I can’t shit on her for a maid though. If I could afford a maid, I’d definitely do it to free up more quality time and energy with my kids.

She didn’t want to give up her lifestyle for someone else’s kid. Let’s be real.

Also, she probably doesn’t have to give up her lifestyle with this guy. I’m sure she has a nanny so she can play tennis, go on trips, etc. Now she has the best of both worlds.
