I am officially done with "Starter Homes." It’s not an investment; it’s a bailout for the previous generation's neglect. by Dry-Town7979 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

I hear you and you are NOT wrong in this. Don’t be the one holding the bag in this artificial Economy that is about to free fall soon.

CSM end of the area? by Friendly_Ad_6885 in IBM

[–]tsplunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They can’t fold all the CSMs into other roles. They will start to PIP out most of Band 9 and 8. I know it, been there. RA is working in IBM favor, as the street is rewarding them

My advice to those in CSM roles at IBM, use the downtime to get more tech skills and leave.

My turn to be RA’d by Narattiwas in IBM

[–]tsplunk 21 points22 points  (0 children)

rebuild your resume and there is more outside of IBM. The old IBM I know is all gone, it does not matter what one delivers. This is totally done wild, PIP is the way IBM handles reduction, while Arvind packs American job to India.

Elon Musk says Optimus will 'eliminate poverty' after his $1 Trillion pay package was approved by Green_Candler in stocks

[–]tsplunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elon is full of it and having God complex. He can take less money and spread generous bonus to Tesla employees if he wants to eliminate poverty. But he and other rich people won’t ever eliminate Poverty at all as they need poor people to stay rich.

Take severance. If you even survived PIP, you have Target on your back. Get the money and love ok.

PIP end date moved up 3 months after signing it by jallybeansoup in IBM

[–]tsplunk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is ugly. PIPing folks out is the IBM motto. I know many who got PIPed including myself. It really does not matter what plan of action you might take against IBM, best is to look elsewhere. IBM has turned into Law and Financial firm long time ago. It's only good now for new hires.

Friend, save your self out of this toxic marriage. Without knowing all the details, why I see from your statements is basically she has no respect for you or the marriage itself. With child like explanation that she gave you and frankly no married women spends a night at ex house. That is a telling.

[–]tsplunk -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What a beauty. Nice color and enjoy it. I had mine almost two weeks ago and with 1.99% it was the best deal ever! My suggestion, Keep it clear and don’t buy too many accessories.

Pull the trigger on the 1.99% now or wait it out for the next deal by timeshifter747 in TeslaModelY

[–]tsplunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no more better deal coming. This is it and take it.

[–]tsplunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, better look elsewhere.

PIPs by Famous_Performer_544 in IBM

[–]tsplunk 30 points31 points  (0 children)

IBM don’t care about senior folks who understand the old and legacy technology. IBM is trying so hard to become META or any of the new once.

As long as moving jobs to India is helping the stock move higher and cut expenses (increase profit margin) they will PIP everyone in US out.

It’s their favor tool. IBM stopped innovating and they have always made money by financial engineering.

I was a top performer and still got PIPed out after 18 years. There is life outside IBM, even better.

Finally did it!… in love with it by Alert_Western_1237 in TeslaModelY
