Or, you're getting City of Pittsburgh (3%) withheld, vs. most localities (~1%).Local refund would be if you had PA UE credit - union dues, educator expense, etc.

I'm glad I popped in here. I have been mulling over calling Insulwise as I'm convinced our house (circa mid 60s) has zero insulation. Wildly varying temps and so damn cold in the winter. I know two of the biggest culprits are the crawl space and the 3 season porch. Not much to be done about the porc...

I did see that. I didn't even try to pay match this time since the last time that was a hard no. I cared more about the time off, which they also hard no-ed me on. :) However, I did get a recruitment bonus out of the blue a couple weeks back. $30k over 3 years. I'll take it. My instructions at least...

I loathe Cook. All the man does is say something, and then immediately repeat it but slower. It drives me insane.

Oh interesting. I didn't even think of the wash sale rules. That's sort of confusing because that's if you sell at a loss I thought? Oy. Sorry I'm of no help, mac. But I'd be interested in hearing what the final resolution is.

Right, sorry, I explained poorly. You paid ordinary income tax when the shares where exercised. So, the 115 x 150 shares. If you sold them at that exact price also, you would pay no gain. Because at that time, the calculation is based on your sale price ($310) vs. the market price at the time your o...

So my option price was $195 and the sale price was $310. As mentioned I executed the option and sold the shares at the same time. If I'm understanding properly I pay ordinary payroll tax on $115 * 150 (shares) Then I pay short term capital gains tax on the same $115 * 150 shares Is that real? Over ...

Welp, turned in my resignation this morning. It was awkward and awful, but I did it. Boss was, as expected, surprised. Stunned would be a better term, actually. I found it really interesting that he immediately went to "I wouldn't have been able to jump into this role as successfully without you. I ...

Yeah, there is no reason to give more than 2 weeks. Sometimes the employer wants to move on as well instead of dragging out a lame duck employee. 2 is fine and I wouldn't feel bad about it. I'm stuck on a comment my boss made not that long ago - that anyone above a staff level (I'm manager level) o...

The more you talk, the more likely it will be you say something you don't want to say. Yes, this exactly is my fear. Regarding helping people - I am torn on that.

honest question, any particular reason why you're doing it over Teams? I personally would prefer to do the initial message in email or whatever is the main form of written communication. It would allow me to really develop my thoughts and how I want to present them. I'm sure my boss would want to h...

I'd say be as candid as you feel comfortable being. If I was your boss, I'd want to know why you're quitting, because I'd want to know if it was something operationally that needs fixed, so probably plan for that question to come up. I've been very candid in meetings (with both my boss and the SVP)...

I will be giving notice to my employer next week. I know this will garner lots of joking responses (which I fully appreciate) but I'm legitimately asking what I say word for word when I leave.

Company I (somehow still) work for is splitting off into a couple of different companies. I will be placed under a management company that's based out of Florida (no state tax).

I saw someone on Reddit say "Paul Zeise sounds like a tuba eating a rancid sandwich in the fort Pitt tunnel" and I thought that was pretty apt.
The Fan having both Zeise and Kaboly on this week was a decision. I guess there was some sort of oaf quota to meet.
