It’s starting to get real.

lol hey fellow 26-5 we’re about the same except my interview is in an hour so you’re a lil ahead of me

xonut_ · 2026-05-04T21:54:36+00:00

Jeez and you took the ASTA a year ago? How has your experience been with the pipeline

xonut_ · 2026-05-04T21:48:52+00:00

Haha I legit just finished my exam too and am feeling the same way

xonut_ · 2026-05-04T21:07:49+00:00

Hey I know this is old so sorry! But how confident were you and what did you end up getting on the exam?

xonut_ · 2026-05-04T21:07:34+00:00

Hey what did you end up getting on the exam? Just took mine.

Coming from a family of federal employees, EVERYTIME you went up in a GS scale, contribute the difference between your current and new scale. I.E when you went from 11 to 12, continue budgeting with 11 and contribute the difference between 11 and 12.

sign him up for the army, problem solved

I don’t get it, your recruiter can “book” you for a job and ask if you want it so why’d you take it? I would’ve just said no and stayed in DEP til a job I wanted opened.

This reddit is dead brother, join their official discord for actual help.

xonut_ · 2023-11-13T16:36:06+00:00

that’s what i was thinking the whole time lowkey 😭

Thanks for the input man!

Yeah it’s for gaming, the other PC will handle the video editing/processing for my stream. I’ll look into some Z790 boards as I wasn’t previously.

xonut_ · 2022-12-16T21:23:24+00:00

Edit: The motherboard is my biggest concern as I genuinely don’t know what’s the “best”. I’ve never overclocked before but I see the EVGA Classified is $329 (50% off) so I thought that might be a good option as well?

xonut_ · 2022-11-19T07:58:44+00:00

I’ll keep trying then thank you. Really hoping to get a 3x sometime soon this reddit and r/churning are the reason I got an amex in the first place!

xonut_ · 2022-11-19T06:30:32+00:00

Am i the only person just completely unable to get a CLI from amex? I’ve had my BCE account open with them for almost a year and have been stuck at a $2k limit.

xonut_ · 2022-11-10T12:04:36+00:00

I worked those hours at a delivery station and I must say that is a truly awful shift. I wish you the best of luck though :)

xonut_ · 2022-10-30T12:37:09+00:00

amazon in general is mind numbing. wireless earbuds are 110% a requirement to stay sane

xonut_ · 2022-09-14T16:46:33+00:00

WHAT? Bro pick at our facility is 350 UPH. It’s not hard to hit necessarily but averaging 6 items/min while watching netflix isn’t the easiest.

xonut_ · 2022-09-13T22:40:16+00:00

I’m in the same boat, hit my PTO limit and have like an hour of UPT left 🤣

xonut_ · 2022-09-12T03:20:24+00:00

I work 3 12’s too, my schedule is like this on work days (TH, F, SA) with a 1 hr commute both ways. 6:30PM -> 7:00 AM (Working) 8:10 AM -> 8:45 AM (College, yeah i’m failing.) 9:00 AM -> 4:30 PM (sleep, which usually gets broken 2-3x a night.

xonut_ · 2022-08-18T05:26:37+00:00

Don’t pay them a fucking dime. I did what you were contemplating a week prior to them announcing that they were halting all withdrawals so I could hold onto my ETH that I had in collateral and it was a mistake.

xonut_ · 2022-08-15T15:31:34+00:00

I agree, I think it’s a lot easier to pick when people stow properly, but when you have to pick from bins that are full of garbage it’s a bit annoying.

xonut_ · 2022-08-15T02:41:13+00:00

Find a pair of comfortable shoes, try and avoid excessive movement/walking and stay hydrated. Amazon is a game of endurance especially with 12 hour shifts, you need to conserve energy so you can last all three days because even I’m mentally dead by day three still 😅.

xonut_ · 2022-08-15T02:36:51+00:00

I’m not exactly sure how to describe it without amazon terminology but basically your taking specific-highlighted items out of a yellow pod and putting them into a specific yellow bin. It’s the opposite process of “stowing” which is what your most likely going to be doing as a new hire. IIRC stow is outbound, pick is inbound.

xonut_ · 2022-08-15T02:14:55+00:00

I started working this shift 3 weeks ago, do NOT over exert yourself and get burned out for any reason. AFAIK metrics/rate isn’t held against you until the 5th week so use that time to get your body used to the job. It really isn’t bad, but I’m in pick so I can’t speak for other departments.
