is anyone working?

December 14th, 2020 at 07:29 pm

Not a real question just a observation in my world if someone asks me to do a task i get it done not spread it out and use the work from home as a reason it takes longer etc.

In my area there are many jobs out there offering better pay then they use to and no takers ?   People have said they are waiting to see if the "extra" in unemployment ends...... Makes no sense to me if there was a job that paid similarly i would not sit and ride unemployment until it runs out then be more desperate in picking a new job/ industry /career.....

The company i am working for has been steadily hiring but guess what many stay.... 3months which is the amount of time in this state to re-up for unemployment. People are often complaining about those who want to get back to work in a normal way as selfish and money is a priority over lives but what do you say about these people who simply do not want to work at all anymore?   sit in the floaty chairs like the movie Wall-E and wait for grub hub to drop off food and a small check from unemployment they know they can use " covid" as an excuse for the gap in their resume etc. .......LMAO

Honestly this whole situation has made me see many people in a whole new light and often not in a good way. 

 

bad DATA

So I looked at Mint which I only  have one accounts added there but  I like the  credit score feature on Mint. 

I recently looked and found BAD info on their credit breakdown they say they use Transunion ........so i went to them to get my free credit report they offer.  One free weekly this year due to Covid.... but the item that shows on Mint does not show on transunion or experian  reports....... since it is not on my real credit reports i wonder where it came from or how to correct it.

I have had Nothing but trouble in trying to add accounts to one site to see big picture as a  CU I use ......does not want you to connect through others sites so they either dont update or have a connection issue every time.  also some items do not update for days so it is just as easy to get information from a few sites. 

I am amused at how different companies catagorize items 

my bank somehow lists all payments to Waste Management as Dining out....... LOL     

i am finding all these " helpful" features more work then doing by myself on an excel sheet. 

 

where to go from here

Since things will be changing as some people have lost their minds over this virus etc it has made me think about where to park my cash in the future.  I think many places and past items may be gone for goodfor investing purposes.   i know if i invest in the MANY people ( mask producers/ sanitizer and even packaging for take out etc. ) making money off panic it will eventually end.....I hope soon this has been nuts. 

i think having a good amount liquid is ok but each month my interest has been falling i recently opened a cd or 2 for better return. i also was looking at the savings account from american express that is paying .60%  quite a bit better then basic bank.   I find it hard to withdraw money from my basic accounts to put into other savings options. even if in long run are a better deal.
