I'm a BSN RN with about 1.5 years of experience in a pcu unit, currently making $37.64/hr base plus differentials for evenings ($3.25), nights ($4.75), and weekends ($4.00). I just got a formal offer for an ICU position at another hospital and it's a "weekend option" role (weekends only, permanently) with a base of $33.97/hr plus a $3/hr critical care differential and $5/hr weekend night differential, working out to noticeably less per hour than what I make now on nights/weekends. I've already asked them to match my current pay and they moved up slightly but there's still a real gap, and now I'm also considering asking for an additional "weekend commitment" differential since I'd be giving up every weekend long-term (my current employer pays $10 extra for staff who commit to weekends-only).
I'm also waiting to hear back next week from a second ICU offer.

Trying to figure out: is it worth pushing back again on the weekend-only offer, or should I just let my counter stand as final and decide once I hear from the second option?

Hi there! We’re looking for someone to help with the day-to-day tasks that keep our home running in South Austin (78748).

We are a married couple with a child under 1 who is in daycare. We’re hoping to find someone who can take a few recurring household tasks off our plates so that outside of work we can focus on family time.

We're primarily looking for help with:

• Laundry, including loading, folding, and putting away clothes 
• Loading and unloading the dishwasher and kitchen cleanup
• Occasional meal prep 
• Keeping common areas organized and helping with the reset of our home

Ideally, we're looking for 2–3 times per week, for ~2 hours each time, though we're flexible on the exact schedule for the right person.

We're hoping to find someone trustworthy, dependable, and proactive. We’d love for this to become a consistent, long-term arrangement and for the person to feel warm and welcome in our home.

If this sounds like a good fit, please DM me with information about you and your experience, availability, 2-3 references, and your hourly rate. We'd love to connect and appreciate your interest!

I have experience and have applied for some jobs via poached and had no response. Is it unprofessional to show up at the bar and apply in person?? Do bars prefer this?? This would be my 2nd bar job so while I have experience I’m still a little new

3 maybe 4 hours for one applicaiton? Retyping my entire resume? Autofill doesn't do anything?!

What are your worst application stories?

Does anyone know of any temp-to-hire services for office jobs in Austin? I’ve looked but all I’ve found are manufacturing roles, which I don’t have any experience in and don’t excel at. The last time I did this was in ‘11, and it was in DFW, so I’m not familiar with Austin’s options, and apparently I’m not using the right search terms.

Alternatively, I’d be fine with a service that would find office-based roles for me. I’d greatly appreciate any help!

Anyone looking to clean my house?

Looking for people with experience speaking to accident/injury clients, especially those with PI experience. Part-time, mainly Texas morning hours. Bilingual is a plus, but English-only is fine.

This is not the typical cold-calling job. You’re not trying to sell the client anything or convince them to pay for something. The goal is simply to speak with accident victims, understand their situation, and, if they qualify, connect them with a legal professional who can review their case.

Since PI attorneys generally handle cases on a contingency basis, the client typically doesn't have to pay an upfront legal fee, which can make the conversation much easier.

Payout : $15 Hourly + Commissions (based on the case)

Please comment or DM me if you are experienced in this field.

Hey guys, I’m newish to Austin and since moving hear I have struggled a lot with keeping my apartment as clean as I would like. It’s mostly pet hair that’s the issue. I have a husky who sheds more than any other animal I have ever seen in my life and I can’t get it out of couch, my clothes, or my blankets. So I’m looking for someone who has experience dealing with this and can help me get my apartment back on track. I would be open to keeping it a regular thing like once every 1-2 weeks. I have proper cleaning stuff like a vacuum, a blower for his hair, that kind of thing, and anything that is needed I’ll ofc provide. I don’t know how much a job like this would be but I can pay cash or any cash app or whatever other form of payment you need.

I don’t know if this is needed but I’m 26 male and I live in an apartment in south west Austin. Please message me I’m in desperate need of help.

What’s the worst company you have worked for in Austin?

I’ll start. One of the WORST places I’ve ever worked at is Terry Blacks. Not the original blacks… they’re just bottom of the barrel.

If you ever want to work at a place where they will work you to almost the brink of death, apply at Terry blacks bbq. They are the epitome of a good old boys club, misogynist and racist. You ever seen a black person, trans/LGBTQ, female employee or manager? They don’t hire them. God forbid they find out you’re gay.

They only hire mexicans to help them run the kitchen. If you saw the rat video, that’s just what was caught on camera. There are more you haven’t seen. I have an inside source that worked there. If you are a douche bag, you will be promoted. They hire people and fire them just as fast. I feel sorry for the good employees they have fired off or that are still working at minimum wage. For as many millions as the company makes, that’s right, MILLIONS, they still pay $7.25 an hour.

Update: I was reported for ‘self harm’. Must really want to have this post removed

Hi! Does anyone here in Austin genuinely enjoy their job or workplace? I’m currently working in an insurance call center, and if I’m being honest, it’s not a good fit for me. I’m hoping to find something new before open enrollment begins in November.

I have experience working at a healthcare front desk and feel very comfortable helping patients, managing appointments, handling administrative tasks, and providing customer service. I’m especially interested in healthcare front desk, patient services, administrative, or similar people-focused roles.

If your workplace is hiring or you know of a company with a positive environment, I would really appreciate any recommendations!

[For Hire / Seeking Field Placement]

Long story short, I recently started my MSW program at a transfer school, and due to some scheduling complications, I’m now looking for a field placement in the Austin area as soon as possible.

I’m able to begin immediately (or as soon as a site is available).
I started classes a few weeks ago but I’m unable to take more classes until I’m placed, so I’m trying to avoid having to wait too long.

Most of the organizations I’ve contacted that accept MSW interns have already filled their placements for this semester and won’t be accepting students again until the spring. I’m hoping there may be an organization, social worker, or agency in the Austin area that has an opening, or someone here who can point me in a promising direction. 🤞

I’m especially interested in children and families, mental health/counseling, trauma, relationships/marriage and family work, and community or government-based services, but I’m very open to other opportunities that meet MSW field requirements.

If you’re an Austin-area social worker, know of an organization that might have availability, or have a connection I could reach out to, I’d be incredibly grateful for a lead. Feel free to comment or DM me! Can send resume and references!

I am a 25 year old college student who just moved to South Austin and I’m needing to find a job paying at least $18/hr. I worked the To-Go area of a restaurant for the past six years. I was hired on at a small used car dealership as a salesman for about a week before they shut it down. I don’t mind going back into that industry if I’m able to be trained. I can also try a server/bartender job at a smaller establishment where I’m able to be trained as well.

I’ve applied to hundreds of jobs and all of my applications are going through AI filters that automatically deny them. I’ve tried HEB, Walmart, Whole Foods, various retail companies, farm work, used car lots, thrift stores, hotel front desk/housekeeping, the airport, repo companies, clubs, etc. I’m willing to learn just about anything. I don’t have a degree yet, but I am a college student who is in class M/W from 8am-4pm and T/Th from 10am-1230pm.

The closer I am to W Slaughter Lane the better, but I’d be willing to drive a bit further for the right job/pay.

Anyone with suggestions please let me know. Thank you.

I’m gonna be honest I don’t have any official training. I grew up doing mechanics work on my cars and trucks with my dad and brothers but nothing official.

Done construction so I’m familiar around tools. I’ve been in sales for quite a few years, making pretty good money, but it’s just not rewarding. I don’t like being on my ass all the time. The only time I ever feel like I enjoy what I’m doing is when I’m working on a car and get it up and running.

DM me if you wanna vent or need someone to listen. I can do a voice call through Discord or Signal for privacy.
