Hey all.

Playing on Windows 10 with a Dual Sense (PS5) controller. I was wondering if anyone knows how to work around some of the PS5 controller issues I am experiencing. Better yet, is there a better method to mapping buttons controls outside of default?

Big thing is that players will automatically slide to the base on offense, and will endlessly dive/jump for balls on defense when switched to. Its like the right stick being in a neutral state is also triggering something. Some controls dont appear in the settings such as moving in or out of the plate.

I was wondering if there was a tool or a pre-configured controller file that someone has used. I pulled up my own controller file but I'm not sure what changes I should be making, if any.

Oh, and is there any way to use the controller in the menus? or not.

I've been out of a job 6 months. I started a new position as a SOC T1 3 weeks ago, and am still being reviewed for my ticket accuracy and shadowing/reverse shadowing. I honestly enjoy the work. I got a call today from a previous employer stating they would like to hire me back, even as soon as next day. They are offering double of what I currently make at my new position. I've already signed and accepted the offer, but told the previous employer that I want to handle resigning from my current position professionally as possible. They confirmed that I can start the next day after giving them notice that I'm avaliable.

I work nights, the opposite shift of my manager. This makes resigning difficult outside of just sending an email after my shift. I feel guilty knowing the shift is a little thin, and just leaving so soon anyway. I know 2 weeks notice is not a requirement, and given my status as a new employee still in on the job training, I'm not even sure its needed. Is it best to just do it as a formality? I figure it will be really awkward if they end up keeping me for the 2 weeks, but I'm okay with it. I admit that saying I quit effective immediately is daunting to me.

I left my previous employer after a few years due to feeling burnt out, but I did enjoy the work and remained on good terms, obviously. I am perfectly happy returning here, but did not expect them to ever reach out to me like this.

I'm hoping for some advice on how to handle this. In the end I know that they wouldn't have any issue firing me asap, and that there isnt any bridge to burn, but I would still like to make this easy and cordial for everyone.

I am a pretty anxious person, and this is a pretty anxiety inducing situation. I am hoping that anyone could shed some light into this process and maybe remove some ambiguity about it. I've pretty much never had to go through the hiring process before in my life so I am not sure about some of the courtesies and "rules" involved in multiple offers. I have no criminal or otherwise negative history, never even a speeding ticket. The only way I could have failed a background check is exactly how I failed it.

Made a mistake on an application I submitted months ago for a large tech corporation in the US. When I applied, I put the same name for a previous company I worked for twice, replacing the actual name of the older company. This was not intentional obviously. In my rounds of interviews, I explained this mistake initially with the recruiter when they noticed it, and then noted it at the beginning of my other rounds. I interviewed... directly... with the director of the entire organization and they loved me so and felt my skills and background was exactly what they needed that I was offered the job on the spot.

I accepted the offer formally the next day and didn't think much of the mistake I had made at that point. During the check, I supplied evidence and proof of the correct places of employment, but this week I was given a notice that I failed the background check due to an "Unacceptable Background, Employment" and the corporation was moving forward with a pre adverse action. I responded to the letter with all of the information I provided during the background check, and apologized for my mistake. They responded basically with "We are unable to reverse our decision because the information is confirmed accurate." The wording of the email scared me a bit honestly.

I REALLY want this job. It is a small team doing work that I am passionate about. In my research about similar events, most were related to a criminal past, but most outcomes were usually negative (job offer rescinded). I have a feeling the nature of the incident doesn't matter much. But I'm not sure if this means that they are definitely or most likely going to pull the offer. When I asked, the only answer I was able to get was that this was a required process due to the failed background check without any clarification. I figured I've done all that I can do at this point other than wait to hear from them again. I wanted to reach out to the director (my potential manager), but I feel like that is probably going to look really bad or set off some type of issues so I haven't.

Luckily for me, fairly recently I've had successful interviews with another corporation that I would be excited to work for, and I just received an offer. I told them I would like a few days to respond. But if its hopeless for me in my earlier choice, I would like to start working ASAP. I have been out of work for a long time and just ran out of all of my savings, so my situation has become a bit dire. I might have enough to make rent and food next month, so I need to work to bring home money.

So again, could anyone provide advice about what to think about or do in this situation? Does a Pre-Adverse Action of this manner ruin my chances? Should I just accept the other offer and start working next week? Would you hire someone with this incident? What goes on in the minds of the HR/Screening team during a pre-adverse action? Or anything else you may think could help me. I don't really have anything to dispute, since I made a mistake.
