• Let MB know I know about new nanny ???? 😩

  I found it on care.com. Im waiting for her to say what she has to say Wednesday to make my next move because agencies obv want references. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Care.com struggles

  Just like most online narrative reviews people would rarely have reason to come here and post "I love care.com I just found a nanny!" it's a pointless post, people only tend to post to complain or get help with an issue. Care.com is more popular than ever and in most markets it's far and away the most popular app outside of Facebook and its various groups. I like the site but can still acknowledge its gotten worse...

• Asking for industry standards led to me quitting

  I'm glad you stood up for yourself, in this situation, but a word of caution that much like how the care.com calculator skews low, that one skews a bit high and can fluctuate. I just looked it up and for my area I am making what it suggests...for twins. I have the highest rate I know of (mind you, only after generous raises). I've talked to other nannies with more experience who make up to $5 less than me. Look at... Source: almost 2 years ago

• What to do when parents sell their house.

  Absolutely don't go into any home that's not government funded. If you have extra cash, pay it to hire someone through, e.g., care.com to visit your Dad in the home and provide extra assistance. Much cheaper to pay for some extra support in a publicly funded facility than to go into a 100% privately-funded one. Source: almost 2 years ago

• The Template for Hosting a Successful Tech Meetup

  Especially if this is your first meetup, you’ll want to “over-promote”. It’ll take time to get the message out to all relevant community members. Start promoting at least four weeks out. Share it within your local developer communities via Slack or Discord. Submit it to local tech newsletters, submit it to your city’s Luma calendar. Create listings on Eventbrite and/or Meetup.com (just make sure you’ve got a... - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• A place for things I can't talk to anyone about

  I've had success with https://meetup.com/ and https://guild.host/ for finding ; can't offer too much help with scheduling :P I generally check the above sites mid-week, and sign up for things in the coming week. That's been a nice sweet-spot for being able to be early enough before things fill up, while avoiding accidentally having to cancel other things in my life for the meetups. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Unconventional ways to find a software engineering job

  If you live in a larger city, it’s likely that there are events or meetups nearby. I recommend using meetup.com or checking local event websites for tech-related meetups. Although you may be looking for a job, it’s better to focus on making real connections here. Going to events and asking everyone you meet if they’re hiring isn’t a great way to go about it. To form connections, I’d recommend picking 1-2 regular... - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• I (24M) am unsure how confidence will fix my non-existing dating life.

  There might not be anything specifically like meetup.com but there are probably things going on. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Anyone willing to play Badminton this Saturday?

  It is a pain to find a proper badminton community here in Budapest. In other cities, all you needed to do is search up on google and then you are immediately greeted by a bunch of badminton-loving people online. Although there are, some niche and quite hidden badminton meetup groups such as the two large groups on meetup.com, however, the users there are not made to be active and you cannot host meetup events on...
