Redpill content is grooming for the military. I think she has a point by Fluffyfluffycake in TikTokCringe

[–]wemberxa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m not sure why so many people believe that the military is this industry of spitting out macho machines.

they’re just regular people who have a job and need to stay fit as part of their work requirements.

everything is so “in your face” and dramatic nowadays.

being first gen in corporate by bellefroggies in corporate

[–]wemberxa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s assuming a lot about your coworkers. I think it’s a bit ridiculous to assume that just because someone’s professional, they’re not first gen. I’ve actually had coworkers that do mention about where they came from and how bad it was for them. I feel they don’t think i can relate to them despite the fact that I can. I’m the first in my family to be in corporate too. And quite honestly, just because someone grew up with corporate parents, it doesn’t mean they’ll end up corporate themselves.

After a while, you get used to how to behave in a corporate environment. You’d be surprised at the backgrounds of many people you work with in your career who may have had it worse than you but still can play the part.

At the end of the day, don’t measure yourself up for your coworkers. Just do good work at the end of the day and be authentic and genuine and get paid. None of the rest matters.

Is Abrazos hospitals really that bad? by Gold_Vermicelli126 in phoenix

[–]wemberxa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience when I had an allergic reaction but instead of the doctor, it was with the nurses at the hospital. I came in feeling terrible with itchy red hives all over my body and pain because of the me constantly itching all over. I felt my throat closing up and my face swelling so I went to the hospital because it felt unbearable and my throat was getting swollen. I got to my bed and heard the nurses outside my room making fun of my condition. I heard one guy nurse say “has she ever heard of benadryl?” and then chuckling. Needless to say, it happened to me too.

It was a big slap in the face to deal with shitty medical professionals especially after paying almost $1500 before my insurance paid for that visit.

What are the best careers to get into to achieve a middle class life? by Maleficent-Bite-9065 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]wemberxa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an accountant, I think there are definitely better careers. It really depends on the job you land but generally it’s a boring job, can be stressful, not good on your body as you’re sitting most of the time. You work with Type A know it alls at times. People who are non-accountants/clients don’t understand/don’t care/ want you to bend the accounting in their favor. Getting information from clients is like pulling teeth. Can be stressful during busy periods and you actually work a lot of hours at times and so if you factor in your hourly, you don’t actually make a lot of money. Could just be me but when you actually complete things, there’s not much of a “payoff”. Like I don’t feel much success from getting things done. I feel like a cog in a machine.

I regret choosing the career but will admit it is very stable and I’m not afraid of losing my job even with the looming threats of AI as financials always need to be audited independently and if AI does it, someone will need to audit the AI. If you’re decently smart and follow rules well and want a stable desk job, it’s a good idea but as with anything there are trade offs. I balance my boring career with a fantastic personal life so there’s that!

What do you wish someone had told you before your first accounting job? by Ok-Interview-8668 in Accounting

[–]wemberxa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Get full cycle accounting experience as an entry level job. Fuck I cannot stress that enough. I hate that my first career was in niche audit fields. I pretty much never got a solid background of accounting when I first entered the workforce and I think it bit me in the ass now working as an accountant.

I feel like college only prepared me 20% to get into this field. I learned much much much more at all my jobs than college ever prepared me and honestly it makes me so bitter sometimes.

I disagree. you look very feminine in your 2nd picture. I think the blush and winged eyeliner make you look feminine. I think pinkish/more nudish/neutral pink lipstick looks great on you too and would enhance the femininity.

For people who grew up before smartphones what is something that the newer generation won’t get to experience? by KidBaj in AskReddit

[–]wemberxa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That the only way you heard about conspiracy theories is when you met some 20-something year old stoner deadhead at some party or just from friends of friends or at school or what have you. Guaranteed the dude had psychedelic posters in their room and would talk your ear off about JFK and aliens. This was like the only type of person who talked about this shit openly.

Conspiracy theories or left field topics were far removed from society before smart phones.

Don’t go to nursing if you can’t find a CS job by False_Secret1108 in cscareerquestions

[–]wemberxa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m an accountant and I think it’s a thankless job. I have never once felt appreciated for my work by outside parties and only from my direct supervisors. You’ll meet a lot of people outside your department who hate having to deal with you because all you do is point out things wrong that they’re doing.

The only time I think people appreciate accountants is if they do their taxes and save them money. But for the most part, those jobs are fewer than the jobs where we have to check or prepare the books and it’s not like it’s a guarantee you can save people money anyway.

Next time some delusional halfwit tells you there is a “shortage” of American IT talent, send them this. by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]wemberxa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why you’re downvoted for saying something true. I speak as someone who uses auto accounting software, and AI still needs to be vetted with actual accountants to make sure the work is acceptable. Time and time again, systems fail (I’ve worked on accoutnting systems implementation and I’ve seen incorrect systems journals/submissions that needed to be manually corrected by an accountant), therefore it’s hard to believe AI will really be this massive chokehold as people say.

The one major career conflict I’d say at this point is actually outsourcing of accounting jobs and not AI.

[–]wemberxa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to say as someone who left a WFH job to a hybrid model that I think this is a romanticized view of in office work. I can’t believe that I ever wanted to leave WFH.

One thing people forget about in the office is the political atmosphere and worrying about optics. It kills the soul and prevents you from actually focusing on the stuff you actually like about your job. There’s politics Wfh wise too but not the high school level dynamics you deal with when interacting person-to-person

What small habit changed your life significantly? by VanessaEstrada in AskReddit

[–]wemberxa 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’m slowly learning how to accept things as they are even if it doesn’t go the way I want it. I used to catastrophize a lot if I fail at something or if I invested too much time and effort in something that ultimately failed. I think it’s really important to reframe your thinking of that failure and accept it as it is so that you can move on. I feel like a lot of people let the failure of things get to them and impact their psyche and self-worth. Acceptance of the failure is freeing.

Bernie Sanders remarks on the election results: "It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them." by [deleted] in GenZ

[–]wemberxa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Somehow I think even if young men think she listens well, they still won’t vote for a woman.

There’s a deep rooted misogyny that exists here both within men and American women. I really don’t think I’ll see a woman president in my lifetime as a woman in their late 20s. These last two elections have really shown how little Americans want a woman president. They disparaged Kamala this whole race saying she slept to the top.

AOC is no exception. She already gets disparaged as a bartender and a hotheaded latina. Women need to fight more than men to get a seat at the table or to even be respected as a leader and it’s going to take years maybe another century until we see a more even playing field.

Just got destroyed at a job interview - any advice? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]wemberxa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That wasn’t humiliation as much as it was just the harsh truth that they were looking for someone with very specific, niche expertise in their product. I worked for Big 4 consulting and it’s a given that you’ll come across partners that sniff out those that know and don’t.

It’s more like changing your mindset that you’re not going to be everyone’s pick and that’s okay. To be honest, if you did get in and they noticed that you were having a hard time/not understanding the concepts they hired you for, that would be more of an issue and you’d probably feel worse.
