Just applied for a new job for the first time since a couple of years ago. Here's hoping it works out, since it would pay more, have more PTO, and would give me more retirement accounts to max out (pension, 403b and a 457!). I've been in my current role closing in on a decade. Usually, when I apply for other jobs by the time I get to the interview stages I'm not as interested in leaving. I'll see if that happens this time around or not, since I'm doing this in response to RTO after being WFH for the past 4 years.

Good luck. I hope it works out well!

Wondering how the new Fed rates will be today? Also I am finally on the lookout to buy a house but it seems bleak already. ๐Ÿ˜‘

Well, if you didn't get the news, they dropped by 0.5%. However, mortgage rates aren't directly impacted by fed funds rates, so it'll probably take some time for rates to come down.

I hope we get there though. If we get <5%, I'll probably consider moving and/or cash-out refi, but we're still a ways from that.
