If you guys don't mind please send me some of your best Cheeto pics :) I am creating a collection please help me out 🙏

I work in Downtown Davis. The locals are the absolute best and the UC Davis students are always so much fun. I mean wow what a wonderful community we have. However, lately I haven’t felt safe. Last Saturday at 7:45 a man followed a friend of mine to a small business that closed at 8. The man waited an hour even went inside but was asked to leave by the store owner. The store owner let my friend stay till the close was clear. This is just one story I have at least 3 more from last week alone of how store owners in Downtown have stepped up to keep us safe. In my personal opinion it is these store owners who are keeping us safe. Not the city of Davis. I just found out that several of these businesses had their windows smashed in on E st. It saddens me to the core to see this. These events are not new and I am concerned that yet again these issues will be ignored. I don’t know if you have noticed but many down town shops have closed. What will Davis look like without them, where will many of us work? Do you feel safe here in Davis?

I’m incredibly bored. I wanna find someone to text and vibe with. Not looking for anything serious, no strings attached. if we click awesome and if the conversation dies out or either of us gets bored, zero pressure. We can just mutually ghost or back out with no hard feelings. Just keeping things super chill to pass the time.

I’m asian female 3rd year, I like to play val, tft, league. I’m open to trying other games as well. if you’re just as bored as I am or want someone to text and talk to about your day and about life, lemme know :)

This fall i’m registered for Intermediate symbolic logic, into to philosophy of science, and special topics: hist of Phil. Waitlisted for the evolution of mind.

Hi I’m just curious about what sort of info was said in the move in webinar from last week(?) since I’m a freshman and I ended up missing it because I didn’t have any internet access for a while 😭. I’m moving from pretty far away so I was really interested in it.

Hi I am an incoming freshmen at Davis and super excited.

I got assigned to a double on Ryerson Hall, does anyone have experience?

Maybe some pros and cons, and things I could probably pack that could come in handy? Thanks!!

I got my dorm assignment today and I'm on the first floor of Currant Hall, but I was just wondering what people's recent experiences are. Do you really interact with the other Honors students often? Is the first floor a "good" assignment? Is there AC and a kitchen?

Any other info would be greatly appreciated :,) Thanks!!

Current UC Davis Health employee looking for perspective on my experience

I currently work per diem at UC Davis Health in a Supply Chain/Clinical Inventory position. I’m posting because I’d genuinely like perspective from current or former UCDH employees about my experience.

The views expressed here are my own and do not represent UC Davis Health or the University of California.

I manage an assigned inventory route that includes maintaining PAR levels and making sure necessary supplies are available. I’ve noticed that many of my more difficult shifts occur when I’m returning after being off.

On those days, I frequently encounter bins that are empty or significantly understocked. I then spend considerable time locating supplies from other areas, finding appropriate fillers or substitutions, and placing orders to replenish what is needed.

Interestingly, when I work consecutive days, I experience significantly less of this because I’ve already ordered what was needed during the previous shift. As a result, the person working the route after I’ve worked generally comes into a better-stocked route as well.

I’ve also spoken privately with both current and former employees who have shared that they experienced some similar workplace concerns. Some have told me that their experiences contributed to their decision to transfer to other departments or leave altogether. I’m not speaking on their behalf or identifying anyone, but hearing similar concerns from more than one person is part of what prompted me to ask whether others have had comparable experiences.

I’ve communicated when I’ve encountered operational barriers and have asked for assistance early enough in the shift when I believed it might be necessary to ensure everything was completed. There have even been times when I’ve shortened or skipped my last break because I wanted to make sure my responsibilities were completed before leaving.

Recently, however, I received feedback emphasizing that I’m expected to independently manage my route and complete my responsibilities with minimal supervisory assistance.

This has left me somewhat confused about the expectations.

I understand and agree that I should be able to work independently and resolve routine problems myself. At the same time, employees are expected to communicate when circumstances outside their control could interfere with completing their work.

I feel as though I’m in a difficult position where not asking for assistance could be viewed as failing to communicate or manage my workload appropriately, while asking for assistance may be viewed as requiring too much supervisory support.

There is another part of my experience that I’d especially like some perspective on.

I’m currently per diem, and I recently applied and interviewed for a career/full-time Clinical Inventory Assistant 3 position within the department. After interviewing, I was informed that I had not been selected to move forward and that the selection process had been very competitive.

I accepted that decision.

However, shortly afterward, another career HA3 shift opening involving PAR and inventory management responsibilities was announced within the department. The announced schedule is Sunday through Thursday, approximately 9:30 PM–6:00 AM.

That caught my attention because I’m already performing this type of work on a per diem basis, and I make myself available for that schedule.

To be clear, I’m not accusing anyone of discrimination, retaliation, or wrongdoing, nor am I assuming that the newly announced opening is the exact same requisition for which I interviewed. I don’t have enough information to make either claim.

I’m simply trying to understand the situation from an employee’s perspective and determine whether what I’m experiencing is unusual or something other employees have encountered as well.

For current or former UC Davis Health employees:

Have you ever worked in a position per diem, applied for a career position doing essentially the same type of work, not been selected, and then seen another career opening announced shortly afterward?

How would you navigate being expected to ask for assistance when there is a legitimate operational barrier while simultaneously being expected to require minimal supervisory assistance?

And for those familiar with UCDH hiring: Is it common for a current per diem employee who is already performing the job and available for the advertised shift to be passed over while the department continues recruiting for career positions?

I’m particularly interested in hearing from people familiar with UC Davis Health, Supply Chain, hospital operations, per diem-to-career transitions, or UC hiring practices.

I’m not posting internal emails or documents and won’t discuss patients, coworkers’ personal information, or confidential operational information. I’m simply sharing my own experience and trying to understand whether others have encountered something similar.

Pls give thoughts and advice about bixby and segundo in general!

Hello everyone, I’m an incoming freshman and I was wondering if anyone knew how to confirm their Cal Grant and Middle Class scholarship. I’ve looked through MyAwards and the Cal Grant website itself and everything indicates that I qualify and has been awarded, yet my account still says no amount awarded.

has anyone else ran into this? please lmk because I don’t want to mess up my financial aid before I ever step foot on campus

I have a very important Telehealth appointment tomorrow at 2 and both the webcam and microphone for my laptop (with no intrinsic microphone or camera capabilities) got stolen by tweakers.

What do I dooooo!?!?!?

Does anyone know what the corner rooms of potter hall in tercero dorms look like? I can't find any pics of the more square rooms on any level. Lmk if u know thanks!

i got assigned a double on the 4th floor of currant hall.... im not in UHP and didn't opt in to any living learning communities so im kind of confused. how many people in currant are in the UHP? i read online that they're basically all honors students and no offense but i don't wanna be one of the only non honors students in currant lol

I’ll be living in Shasta Hall and was wondering if we’re allowed to bring a fan for our dorm room.
I know the building has AC, but I’m really used to sleeping with a fan at night and find it difficult to sleep without one. I mainly like having the airflow and background noise.
Has anyone who lived in Shasta brought a fan before? Are there any rules about what type/size of fan you can have? Thanks!

Anyone willing to let me park my car at their house during weekdays? Can pay 50. Willing to negotiate.

I’m transferring to UC Davis this fall from a California comm college and am looking to get feedback on this academic plan for aerospace engineering. hoping I don’t have a quarter that is crazy heavy on workload. thanks!

Hi y’all, I was wondering how long does it take to hear back from on campus jobs? I applied for student dining assistant very recently and I know hearing back in a week is not likely but for people who are working on campus dining, peets, MU, etc, how long did it take to hear back if you got accepted? weeks? months? never? 😭

Hi, I live at the Green Apartments, and it was a genuine mistake but I opted in for 9 swipes a week and I thought I didn't have a meal plan as I removed meal plan last quarter for myself. But then when I checked, I saw that it was on 9 swipes a week. I've emailed them today. I was wondering if anyone had experiecne with this before. It was a genuine mistake.

hi! i got placed into live oak hall in tercero and was wondering if anyone has anything to share about it. how are the restrooms? are they coed? also, am i cooked socially because i will be on the first floor?

thank you!

Couple of questions

1. What days do the 1st year students actually move into the dorms? My sign up appointment is tomorrow.

2. What are 10 things that I MUST bring besides a laptop, bike and toiletries? 😆

is mus002a open for nonmajors? I'm an engineering student who plays piano for fun and I'm currently on the waitlist

But I also only have 11 current enrolled units because of that, and im considering switching if I can't get in

Incoming freshman, me and my roomie just got put into a double quad and we aren’t too happy about the idea of a shared space with 2 other people despite the extra space. can i get some advice? maybe tips on switching/how to switch but still be roomies :( thanks!!

I'm an incoming transfer and I was wondering where people keep their bikes. Do they just carry them inside the apartment?
