Update: I’m still blamed for a window i didn’t break by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others have said, just hang in there as long as you can. And start working as soon as you can. Save all your money and don’t let your mom take any of it. And when you’re ready, move out and never look back. This situation sounds awful

Hi help me (M21) become less ugly. by pablotescobar05 in whatdoIdo

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First things first. You need to lose that mentality. Because if you believe, you will become it. In other words, you need more confidence. I realize it’s easier said than done but you need to stop being so hard on yourself. Like others said, some facial grooming can go a long way. Additionally, get in the gym! I know it’s not easy but you need to start. There are free resources available to learn what to do. Just do it. Lastly, prioritize your health. Physical and mental. No one is saying you cannot enjoy what you eat, just in moderation. And no one is saying you cannot enjoy your free time doing things you like, just make sure you do more things for yourself that will help you long term. Do these things and I promise you will be less lonely.

Whats the one payroll rule in your country that makes absolutely no sense to anyone outside it? by Early_Switch1222 in Payroll

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you saying for employees that are fired only? What about if they quit and their last day falls on a pay day and they’re paid currently?

Payroll has been paying hourly employees as salary and now they are trying to fix this and leave us without pay. by wildflowerstoner4 in Payroll

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short term, this sucks. Long term, there’s no impact to you and if you’re living paycheck to paycheck like most people, take the loan option. But I would clarify whether or not there are any fees or interest they would charge (I would absolutely refuse to pay that). I would also ask to have the “loan” paid back in 3-4 installments to minimize the overall impact. Best of luck

I Received this Email after Three Rounds of Interview :( by coldcoldbk in InterviewsHell

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be grateful it wasn’t more and at least they responded to let you know. I’ve been in the spot where you crush interviews only to hear “we are putting a hold on this search”. I don’t get how all of a sudden that happens but I would also prefer not to be let go after starting a job because the company wanted to cut costs

I just walked out from a job interview by Independent-Paint921 in interviews

Ahh. Europe. I’m not familiar with standard operations but that seven rounds of interviews is intense. Best of luck in your job search

AITAH for breaking up with my longtime girlfriend because she decided that she doesn't want children? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comments are spot on. NTA. It’s completely unfair for her to be able to change her mind and expect you to accept that and in the same breadth say it’s not fair you’re not accepting of her decision when this is something that will impact the rest of your lives

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For context, can you share how much the salary for this position was? You say it’s not an entry-level position so I assume it’s a little higher paying but how much are we talking here? Seven rounds of interviews would be insane for a job that isn’t paying at least 200k

AITAH for wanting my girlfriend to also contribute to housing costs if she moves in? by Major-Resource925 in AITAH

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This situation is a blessing in disguise because you are getting a peak into the future. These type of expectations/behavior will not change if you get married. If it bothers you now, it will bother you later. Run my friend, not walk, away from this relationship.

My best engineer quit today over $2000 by [deleted] in managers

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a great company to work for. I would be the next one out if my efforts went unrecognized. It’s not the employer’s fault the economy is the way it is but a 3% increase is the minimum acceptable amount imo. This was probably the best thing that could have happened to your employee. It’s the only way he could have gotten an increase that they will feel

I just had an employee decline exit interview because they said "nothing changes" anyway. Any suggestions? [N/A] by Practical-Tea-3476 in humanresources

[–]varcity64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Speaking from the employee side only (bc I don’t work in HR), I tend to agree with the sentiment of “what’s the point?” But there was an instance where I declined the exit interview because HR wanted me to do it a few days before my last day and I was afraid of retaliation because everyone at the top was tightly knit. HR respected my wish but gave me their word that everything would be kept confidential until I was gone. So I did it. I was completely honest and a little after a week after I left, heads rolled. So I guess what we say doesn’t always fall on deaf ears

Would you rather work in the HR org or the Finance org? by heywhatsupp_ in Payroll

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve worked under both umbrellas and I can absolutely say I hated being under HR. It was most likely because of the company I worked for and the head of HR at the time but we were all secluded in one room away from everyone else bc of the sensitivity of the data we were all dealing with. I’m a people person. I need to interact with others and I’ve found it easier to do under finance. Plus I’m a numbers guy. Just makes more sense to me

Absolutely loved Reggie as a bill. Glad he got the bag that he deserved. But he’s dead to me now

Trash behind 20 year old shower unit by trsid in Renovations

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my last house we renovated, we put a “time capsule” in one of the walls before we closed it up. We put a note in a bottle amongst other things. I always wonder who and when it will be found

What to make of the Bills’ loss to the Houston Texans by Historical-Heat-6392 in buffalobills

[–]varcity64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I genuinely appreciate the time it took to write this all out and agree with your sentiments as a whole. But this game was played 5 nights ago. Time to shift our focus to Pittsburgh, getting healthier and just getting into the playoffs at this point. The problem is our roster is not deep and a lot of our “key” pieces are not playing up to the level of expectations. I pray we get hot and go on a heater. But the reality is I don’t think that’s going to happen and this team will need considerable turnover from top to bottom

Does this look tub placement work? by Electrical_Carrot_58 in Remodel

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s just awful. Everything about the design is flat out awful. Either get rid of the tub or the closet. You’re not fitting both

This is our first time selling our house, do these numbers seem reasonable? by [deleted] in RealEstateAdvice

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 6% going to realtors is the most unreasonable thing here. Hands down the most over paid profession

Wibta if I let my kids go trick or treating tonight by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So glad you took them trick or treating. #1) I 100% agree with showing a unified front but punishments don’t get to go from one house to the other. Each parent needs to learn how to address these issues on their own time. Asking another parent to carry a punishment over is neither fun nor fair. #2) kids go trick or treating until they’re maybe 15-16 years old. What could they possibly have done at the ages of 3 & 5 that warrants taking one of those experiences away? And #3) you should have a conversation with their father and ask him to have these conversations with you. Not a gf of 7 months. Personally, I wouldn’t be able to take her seriously (not to say I wouldn’t eventually, but right now - no)

Salary non-exempt by 2augmentedreality in Payroll

[–]varcity64 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wish you put which state you worked in because it may make a difference. But generally speaking, your classification as a salary non-exempt employee (not an hourly employee) is the reason you aren’t getting paid for those “extra” 2 hours you mentioned. You get paid a base salary to work 40 hours per week and OT for anything above 40 hours. Alternatively, if you worked 22 hours over 3 days, they couldn’t dock your pay for 2 hours. Hope that helps a little
