I work remotely but working from home is difficult. Looking for a space that I can pop into a few times per week where I can set up my laptop and work in peace. I don't have a personal need for a private office, but I'm on the phone basically my entire workday (which is why I can't exactly work from a coffee shop) so I'd probably need a bit of seclusion as not to bother others in the vicinity. Looking for affordable recommendations and willing to drive up to 30 mins from the west side.

Just signed on with a new company. New to me and new in general. I'm transitioning from O/O carrier to a broker role so I knew my options would be limited when signing with a company. I'm just looking to gain experience before seeking an opportunity at a more established company, so this is a stepping stone.

I'm new, the company is new, and I'm pretty sure my boss (owner) is new too. Any time I ask a question or bring up a concern, it's "ok I'll put something together for you", then an hour later I get an email attachment with the company's logo and a title at the top that says "[my issue/concern]" followed by a very obvious long winded Chatgpt explanation. Even simple questions I can never just get an answer, they always have to refer to Chatgpt. Everyone (all the other new brokers recently signed on) in the group email thread is always complimenting the documents "wow! so helpful!" and "so smart!" but I'm annoyed that no one else realizes we're just being fed generic garbage.

If I wanted an AI response, I'm completely capable of getting it myself. I want actual guidance from my boss, the priceless knowledge that you only gain from experience type shit... not the basic information available on the internet. I don't need a 6-page document telling me how to find manufacturers in my area by using google maps. I don't need a generic script that can be found online that surely everyone else is using.

I thought I'd be able to lean on my boss as a mentor but it seems I'm on my own here. Just venting. It's going to be a long year.

I'm 34, have some crowding on my lower teeth and a very slight overbite (although unnoticeable to me). An ortho consult in my early 20s determined I'd need molars removed and estimated 12-18 months of traditional braces. We never discussed clear aligners.

I'll be paying out of pocket, so I'm trying to decide the most affordable route. I've read that traditional metal braces tend to be quicker and cheaper, and I'm not opposed to them, but I do like the idea of clear aligners as it seems much easier with less appointments.

I'm looking for opinions from anyone who had braces as an adult, which method you chose and why, and if you went with aligners, which brand did you use? I just want to have an idea of what to ask my Orthodontist for.

I was given someone's card info years ago to make business related purchases on Amazon, and several other people were also given use of that card (and probably even more in recent years). It's still connected to my Amazon account. Just found out it's still active because I purchased something with an Amazon gift card and somehow the leftover $4ish rolled over to that card. It was an "add to tomorrow's order" one click purchase so I didn't see the payment breakdown until it was too late. Now I've surely notified the cardholder that her payment is still floating around on another account.

If I bought something (else) with said card, would the cardholder be able to get any info from Amazon regarding what account it was purchased with or where the item was shipped to? I feel like I read accounts from others that have been on the victim end of this scenario and they said that Amazon wouldn't give them any info at all about on the purchase...

Just thinking I should take advantage of this card access while I still have it, before they notice the few bucks that was just put on it by this recent purchase and decide to shut the card down. They're never going to suspect any purchases were made by me, unless Amazon gives them the shipping address or name.

West side preferred but willing to travel for a competent office!

You get the initial summons which you show to your employer in order to be excused from work. Does the court then provide any type of proof/confirmation to give to your job to show that you went? Is my employer going to ask for anything to confirm the days/hours I served?
