Kit,

Crawl -> Walk -> Run.

We’re in the crawl phase. Let’s leverage less-harmful technology to reduce our impact on the environment while simultaneously investing in ideal solutions like public transportion and walkable/bikeable cities. It will be a slow transition and we need to embrace every step in the process.

Kit,

Yes, I was agreeing with you. That was the point of my reply.

Why wasn't NYC's Central Park concept copied by other cities?

I’m talking about a massive park in the absolute heart of the city. Located such that is naturally surrounded by city high rises. *People are giving examples of parks that are way off in the boonies. I’m trying to say located centrally, heart of the city, you know where the high rises are. Yes I understand nyc has more, the...

Kit,

Pittsburgh has three major parks in the city limits - Point State Park downtown, which is a small area that hosts events, Schenley Park which has plenty of hiking, biking, and fishing, and Frick Park which is massive and allows you to get lost in the forest in the middle of the city. It’s a great way to get out of crowded areas without traveling.

Kit,

It also means that remote employers can pay less for better talent due to the intense competition. It’s somewhat of a win-win, as it results in cost savings for companies while allowing workers to choose if they prefer flexibility of remote work versus a higher paycheck. I imagine that the pay doesn’t make much of a difference in pocket money when considering commuting costs and higher CoL in areas closer to jobs.

Kit,

I mean, companies that forced back to office had massive exoduses. It makes sense that they have to pay more to find replacements. I personally went from fully remote to hybrid and nearly doubled my salary.

Kit,

This is yet another intimidation tactic. I have a 1200 day streak on Duolingo because the owl bullies me and I am weak.

Kit,

I feel this. It’s kind of addicting to chase a bigger paycheck. I actually talk about it a lot in therapy and it’s been helpful.

Kit,

I was an IT help desk manager for 10 years. Your attire is perfect, and it’s a good sign that you’re concerned about looking professional.

Here’s a pro tip - In your interview you will almost certainly be asked how you’d solve an issue that you have no idea how to approach. What they’re looking for is how you’ll respond emotionally. The correct answer is to assure the end user that you will find a solution, don’t panic, and then check internal documentation. “Have we run into this before?” Insist that the company should never have to solve the same issue twice because documentation is paramount. Never be afraid to say that you’d escalate the issue but KEEP OWNERSHIP. Ownership is huge to these people.

I’d be glad to go into more detail about what they’ll be looking for if it will be helpful.

I won’t wish you good luck because you’ve already got this!

Kit,

ConcernedApe is a national treasure.
