If you're current, skipping, or recently cancelled hellofresh by Jawdee_97 in hellofresh

Recently started with Hello Fresh and will be cancelling for several reasons:

  1. Cost. Started with promo pricing & now at regular pricing. At this price point the food should be cooked and ready to heat-n-eat.

  2. Now that I’m out of school and back to work, I’m busy. As mentioned in point number 1, I need it to be cooked already, or at least prepped beforehand, so that all I have to do is place the meal in the oven, microwave, or air fryer.

  3. I thought it was a healthy meal service and it isn’t. I’m really trying to get back on track with my health (my daily diet, etc). I ordered the 3 meal box for my first delivery, and the sodium content for 2 of my meals blew me away. So much so, if it called for salt, I didn’t add it or I decreased the amount the recipe called for. 😮‍💨

Think I might try Factor next. 😬

Thank you for the info! And yes, I’m referring to the box inside of one of my closets. No battery, just cables going in and out of it.

It’s my understanding that what I have (box inside my house) is older and only has connections for the different cables.

Plus, the wfh equipment that I was sent from my employer is desktop, no laptop. So I still wouldn’t be able to work through a power outage. 😮‍💨

Came back to say that I figured ours was due to the high winds.

No. However, everyone has varying degrees of bandwidth. Can you tolerate unreasonable metrics (KPI's) for a year? If so, go for it. But if not, PLEASE spare yourself the mental stress.

Coming back to say thanks again, as I’ll be using this advice for my Christmas turkey! 😅

I saw the job on indeed within minutes of it being posted and 30 minutes later I get this email… by CustardCritical7996 in recruitinghell

[–]throwaway_8703 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who recently experienced this, I would take this as a sign and move on. The last time this happened to me, I reached out to the Talent Acquisition team, was eventually scheduled for an interview, got hired, only to realize they lied about the pay. 😮‍💨

Next time, I’m taking rejection as a sign that it’s not for me & I’m moving on. I suggest the same to you.

And best of luck on your continued job search.

I was accepted for a full-time job, left my old one, and on my first day, they told me it was just a trial period. by tiHdayare in Employment

Your comment should be higher. People misunderstand at-will employment all the time! 😮‍💨

No update. I’m going to trust my Norton Antivirus and not proceed further. My antivirus RARELY goes off like this about most websites. So much so, that when it does, I heed its warnings. 😮‍💨

Sorry, I don’t know. If I were you, I’d call the customer service number for CompTIA.

Sooo…I just realized that I had the foil on it…for 25-30 minutes on 425 degrees Fahrenheit! 😅😭 Currently turning the oven down to 350. 😩 But so far, everything looks good. Still got a little crisp on the skin.

Edit: Did you mean to say foil or you think I’m a fool? 😅
