Filed UI in December, went on SDI January.

My SDI benefit amount has been exhausted. I’m planning to call tomorrow to reopen my UI claim.

Can they really not adjust my benefit amount? It’s $78 right now. With a new period it would be $369. $78 is utterly pathetic. Am I just stuck with it?

I think Ulquiorra is one of the greatest ever made.

Maybe those who don’t suffer from depression won’t feel the same way, but after watching videos on YouTube again, I genuinely think he is one of the greatest anime characters ever made.

He defines nihilism, he defines searching for something to feel, a reason beyond his duty. Yes he was cruel and absolute, but he was curious and aware. Somehow within a manga/anime we got a character who was curious and felt pain. I don’t care, he’ll always be my GOAT.

This has been my wallpaper for 4 years.

Taken on the streets of London. I refuse to change it until I finally obtain one.

As someone who likes to be in control, our transit system is a nightmare.

I lost my car around November in an unfortunate accident and I can’t afford another right now.

I’ve always liked to be in control, I like being the driver no matter what. I like being in control of where I’m going and what time I’m leaving/getting there. It’s just how I’ve been. Doesn’t help I also love cars and have been an enthusiast since I was kid.

Taking the transit system anywhere that requires more than one bus has been a nightmare..

Today is the second time this month that my 2nd bus was delayed so much that I wouldn’t make it to my 3rd bus. I missed my 3rd bus and was stuck at the bus stop for 49 minutes because that’s when the next one was.. my only other option was to walk 36 minutes to catch a bus.. 9 minutes sooner

It’s about this time I really wish we had a subway system or something..

Guess I’m just ranting because I’m so tired

Are there Operations roles at firms?

I was a Director of Operations at a start up with 25 employees in an entirely unrelated field. I handled day-day, training, managing, data analysis, research, market predictions, file management.

Was just wondering if there is a role at private law firms that fits these duties and if so, does it have a different title?

Desperately need a job, should I just do it? Local Hyundai?

I’ve heard for years the pay is rough, the hours are rough.

I have 3 years of sales experience and very good at being in front of people and reading their social cues.

I’ve been around cars since I was 9, have a knack for reading all the features and different trims, and knowing how to explain them without making a none car person get it.

For the time being I just need at least $50K a year for bills. Should I just at least finally, just give it a shot, see how I feel about it? I’m single and no kids so very eh right now about hours.

First watch: only continuing-Tom Ellis

The first couple seasons were SO good, I’m on season 4 and I’m honestly starting to get bored. I literally can’t stop watching though because of Tom Ellis. Lucifer may honestly be one of my favorite TV characters of all time, and I’ve watched alottt of shows. That is all lol.

I admittedly have never been evacuated, no car, cat, terrifies me.

I live 4 miles away from the evacuation zone as it’s extended. I have no car, a cat and I never thought I’d have to think about this situation. If I end up being evacuated, what am I supposed to do with my poor kitty, and no car? I just want to be prepared.

I love buddy shows, probably because I’m at a stage in life where both of my best friends are very far from me. Looking for shows that give me that feeling, examples:

Suits
Elementary
Entourage

Basically anything that shows good friendships and ideally more like Suits and Sherlock/Elementary where it’s a different plot every episode

My next watch is Supernatural

You guys have given me great advice in the past so I'm reaching out again.

- I've been an SDR at a mortgage company, a BDR at a water restoration company, and finally landed a role that I actually see giving me an incredible opportunity to learn and grow under an incredible boss (the CEO) as a Client Acquisition Specialist.

- The issue is our business is essentially consulting for law firms, I won't be specific on what exactly we consult just because it is such a targeted niche it'd be easy to dox myself.

- We already have clients just through what the CEO has done himself so far so we are comfortable at the moment, but I've been given the role to get us more growth. I've already landed a client that gives us access to a new niche of law firms, but that was honestly through sheer luck.

- Attorneys are so incredibly busy and do NOT want to be sold to, I've tried cold emails, 250 of them with different messages, 0 responses. Haven't tried calling because I was told they hate that. I've completely reformatted my LinkedIn so it represents the company and built up my connections from 7 to 200 and they are all attorneys.

- So my question is, where should I go from here? I've never had a position before where it was essentially created for me and given free reign to basically figure it out. Any advice would be appreciated. And please don't say "find another job" because my boss is incredible and the role is remote so I'm taking this challenge.

- Was on my usual grocery run, was walking by the cold section and then I saw it, the classic large red carton. There was only one. I didn't care that it was $9.99 and not at all in my grocery budget.

- Got home, poured a glass, and the moment I smelled it all the memories flooded in. They say scent is one of the strongest triggers for memories and they weren't kidding. My mother is on her death bed and all these memories of her and I on the beach, me pulling her along on her floaty snorkeling because she's not a good swimmer searching for a honu (I'm killer at finding them for some reason), pulling her along searching for moorish idols because they're her favorite fish. I miss Maui so much. I miss front st so much and it still pains me so much how much those in Lahaina had to suffer. I adopted my cat from Maui and he was found after the fires.

- Insane how a glass of juice could just about make me cry.
