Be careful, I logged out for too long and forgot my password and they wanted a copy of my driver’s license before letting me have access to my account.

I’d guess that regulations for earthquake safety make tall buildings very expensive to build. The only way it makes financial sense to build them is to put them in the most expensive areas and load the units with luxury finishes to increase profit. It’s far more common to see 5 over 1s, and yes there is a lot of resistance to even those.
Yeah, I wasn’t trying to give you a hard time, just sharing how drastically different housing markets can be. I could sell my house in California and buy a 400k house outright from the equity that has accumulated. Alot of middle class Californian are doing just that, selling their houses and buying in the south or midwest with cash. It’s part of what is inflating your housing costs because your market is more affordable than mine. For comparison, the median houshold income in my city is 89k but the median house list price is 1 million, making your market more affordable and attractive for those that need some relief from inflation.
Those numbers mean nothing without knowing the local wages. In my neighborhood the lowest priced 800 sqft homes are 950k and one bedroom rent is $2400. So your area sounds like a killer deal.
One floor of my office building is a very well known gaming company. They’ve been remote since I started my job in 2021, but they have started coming into the office recently. I’d say 75% of the people I’ve seen get off at that floor have appeared to me to be LGBT+.
So many but Lamictal is my current favorite.
This is a discrimination case, which currently only applies to protected classes, such as race, religion, age, etc. But age discrimination can begin at 40 years old, so it’s a class that everyone eventually gets to be a part of…if they are lucky enough to live that long.
We bought in 2016 with 50k down at 3.5% and our payments were $2,800. We refinanced and now our payments are $2,400. Zillow says if we bought our same house today, at today’s rate with the same amount down the payments would be $7,700, an utterly unfathomable amount.
I think they are pointing their fingers at “Biden” on the flag.
I really feel this lately. The news is shit. My anxiety has been high so I go straight to the NYT games app instead of scrolling through the front page.
I started taking a medication recently that has “enlarged spleen” as a side effect. Okay doc, I’ll keep an eye on my spleen.
Because this stupid shit is spreading like wildfire. My mom won’t stop sending me videos like this.
It’s been Core Keeper for me.
A degree can be earned slowly with a lot of outside assistance. A lot of jobs can’t be handled like that.
We use an assessment that provides feedback on 12 metrics and the most important to me are logical problem solving, vocabulary and aggressiveness. I can have several applicants from the same school score wildly differently in those metrics, even if they all have the same degree.
What else should employers do if they have 100 applicants for a role? Interview every single person? We need to weed people out somehow. If you don’t provide a cover letter, you’re eliminated. If you don’t take the assessment, you’re eliminated. You’re saving us time.
I’ve noticed a lot of people lately thinking that college is the hard part and if they get the right degree they will coast into a cushy, easy job. Truth is, being an employee is work and at best executives and owners get to coast on cushy jobs, so unless you manage to get a degree that instantly qualifies you for a CEO role, you’re going to have to work your ass off to climb a ladder or build a business for yourself.
Seriously though, I’m an office administrator and your degree in administration is going to make you the meat in a shit sandwich. Everything that you hate about recruiting…don’t be surprised if you end up being responsible for it. You’ll have to conduct those 100 interviews, then hire and manage staff that have your same burnt out attitude. Your subordinates will bring you endless problems. But that’s only half of it. You’ll be also report up to executives who will push you to be callous and heartless, while somehow magically also increasing production and morale. Did your degree give you all the tools and skills you need to do that? Bro good luck.
Oh so you need a time dilation potion.
Legal field for me, but I’ll be honest. I was planning on quitting Reddit cold turkey and doing something else with my free time but my software project manager husband kept talking about Lemmy, so here I am.
It’s fine for news, tech and memes but none of the niche subs that I loved are here. I really miss the sub for my city.
My conservative parents have also been complaining about the economy and their financial situation. In April they spent 4k to get a box at a baseball game and asked me for money to pay for it, citing that its a special spend to celebrate my dad’s 60th birthday. Then last week I found out that they are going on a 16k eastern European river cruise this summer. Talk about temporarily embarrassed millionaires.
