Happy Thanksgiving
Hey Billy, can we chat on mumble sometime
8611 N Mopac Expy #400, Austin, TX 78759
What dates are we considering?
don't have dates yet
I'm looking at local prices and I definitely can find something within the 60 to 100 range
60k -100k?
huh? I'm just trying to find you somewhere to stay for the nights you need. Once your trial period is over you'll be signed on, and you can use that to find an apartment.
See if anyone would be willing to be a roommate, too
what's the 60-100 range
per night rate for lodging
that's like 6k - 10k a month, isn't it?
If you need monthly rental, we'd look for something cheaper. But your thing is a 5 day trial, right?
I think it will be a 5 day a week 13 week trial period
Oh, then we need to find you a monthly rental.
What is the best estimated start time you are aware of?
None yet, the guy that can get me in is still figuring things out
Find out how much you can expect to make those 13 weeks, too.
I forget the details of the deal since it has been so long. I believe there was some sort of hourly or salary compensation. Although if there is also commission, hopefully that is more bonus than not, otherwise that risk needs to be considered.
Could you possibly sit on the call I'll have with the guy probably tomorrow or the next day?
I believe he said there'll be a base pay and then "spread" pn top of that
Tomorrow would be better for me
What do I need to sit in for though?
The guy said he has the process sorted out on his end
Awesome! Do you need anything from me right now?
not right at this moment, but when we have a time figured out when we're having a call you could sit in on it. I'm asking the guy if you can. It because I'm just not that great at explanation, especially not with things I'm new to, so I think if you listen to it you can make more sense of it than what I told you.
It is a staffing gig in Austin
I get the gig
Same guy I talked to.
Probably the money thing I haven't explained well
he talked about there be a base and then a "spread"
i guess that's a bonus on top of the base.
The only income I'm concerned with is the income from the primary staffing job.
He said the training period would be 13 weeks iirc
5 days a week, on site.
Which you should be paid for
Will you work from home after that?
If I stay up here with my Mom, then that's 2 hours round trip everyday.
I believe there could be 3 days on 2 days off
Yeah, we'll get you a place for 13 weeks.
If you have to do something in office from there, we'll look for an apartment for you.
James said he'd get with this landlord to see if I can stay at his place. I'll need to ask him about that.
Questions we need answered
(1) What's you monthly income for the 13 weeks?
(2) After the training, what is the work location?
San Marcos is closer, right? But it's still quite a drive.
The address you gave me, you'd be better off in Round Rock or Pflugerville.
Maybe even Cedar
Alternatively, we can look for camp grounds, and you can take showers at a gym.
Yeah, either my Mom's or Jame's place would both be 1 hour to the sport
If the weather gets bad, we put you up in a hotel until the cold front is done.
which is cheaper Cedar or RR?
For apartment? I don't know. I haven't looked.
But, from what I gathered you'd be making like 50k per year.
That's just the primary job
So you'd be pulling in 4k a month
Unless my memory on that is incorrect
both Cedar and RR have good demographics.
For now
But yes
\I don't need anything big. Just a bathroom and place to put my bed and not in a black neighborhood.
You need to be able to cook, too
I can
Food can get expensive
Oh yeah an oven
they don't always come with apartments, do they
They do
But, there might be options for you that are just a room and private bath if you want to save money.
Those are airbnb ideas
but those would be around 60-100 bucks a night, right?
You can work out better deals with owners sometimes.
But if it's for short term, then there is that premium on the price
sorry but what's a premium
Premium is in reference to an increase in price because you're receiving a special service.
like interest?
When you do short term rentals, while there is a market rate, the owners take on a large risk than the expense you're actually paying. So they charge you extra than if you stayed long term.
No, not interest
It's just a way of saying you're paying a higher price than one otherwise could.
Understood
When you do a 1 year lease, you're buying time in bulk.
When I ask for you to sit in on the call, would they know you as Billy or Evan?
Billy
Ok
Do I need good credit for this to wokr
I doubt you'll need me though. This is a pretty straight forward deal.
Apartments do a credit check, yes.
But, what your credit needs to be, I don't know.
They know there are young people with no credit. So I don't think you have much to worry about.
Everyone needs to start somewhere.
Get a credit card. But make sure you pay off your balance each month to improve your credit score.
I would suggest a good credit card that gives travel rewards which you can use on hotel or maybe even car rentals.
Otherwise, the next is cash back, but usually those reward programs provide the most value, and since you'll be traveling a lot, that might be worth it to you.
Understood
I am about to go cook a bunch of food for the week. So, I won't be available.
I currently do have a credit card, but nota debt at the moment because I got scammed by some guy in California
no debt is good
If you end up with a time, shoot me a message. I can't promise to make it until I see it
Will
Debit card and credit card are not the same
I know
