Lol the fearmongering with this clown is crazy. "Austin’s leftist policies"?? Where? Words have ceased to have meaning, I guess. Not to mention the entirety of Texas has been under GOP rule for pretty much my whole adult life. I want whatever they're smoking over there.

Policies do have consequences and Sylvester Turner with his cronyism did manage to screw up everything from street repair to the firefighters contract. And Hildago deciding to spend all that flood control bond money on equity issues rather than flood control....well we just saw those results.

Nope but I am heavily considering leaving Texas as a whole because of the Republican regime.

I have been thinking about leaving Austin but not because of the Mayor, more like the entire state. Its kind of just a mess in Texas and I feel like Austin has just gotten too big for me. Might be time to pack up and start a new adventure.

I am writing this message besides the staff group of EY GDS. Specifically Staff -1 at assurance level. I would request everyone to spare few minutes and read it -

Wanted to bring out that staff-1's are paid peanuts (3.33L CTC) please don't expect them to slog 12-13 hours. They don't have enough motivation or incentives to work that long. Seniors,AM's and Managers should be more kind and explain the work to them clearly rather than making last minute changes.

I’ve been approved for a transfer to the AUS office. Early 30s couple, no kids, small dog. Wife will work for the state but doesn’t have an office assigned yet. Looking for a SFH (that isn’t soullessly modern) in the 600-700k range that will suit our interests: walk to a grocery store, maybe a restaurant or two, commute to work in <30 min. Where should we look?

What can I do if I believe I’m being overcharged for utilities. I was charged prorated around 125 for 11 days for water and electricity (this is my share in a four bedroom apartment). I think this is crazy expensive for utilities for 11 days. I did just move to Austin, is it normal for utilities to be this high ?

My partner and I bought our home back in 2020. We got a good deal, low rate. But we want to move into a more spacious SFH. However, as we all know this market is crazy. Everything we want costs $620k+ and bc of rates it makes our mortgage estimates $3500+. We are currently paying $2k. And it looks we need to sell the house simultaneously as look for a new one or our contingency isn’t as attractive. I know it’s based on personal circumstances. But what would you do? - not move, sell and buy?
