How's your Tesla holding up in the Rust Belt?

Anyone who owns a 5+ year old Tesla in the Rust Belt, how does it look under there?

I ask because I live in the literal snowiest city in the US with plenty of salting during winter, have a 2018 Chevy Bolt that's... Weirdly kind of rust free (surface spots). The brakes get a little rusy, sure, they were only replaced/serviced once (in 8 years). I'll wash it occasionally during winter, but not radically.

It's not rare to see some seriously broken vehicles here, rusted to oblivion, so I'm wondering if vehicles differ by how they age in salted regions? And how do Teslas hold up?

Great customer service

Obviously, most people will post problems they've had here, and that's expected, but I just wanted to say that I really appreciate the great customer service Spectrum has.

You call, and you get through - agents are always friendly and helpful. I hope they keep it that way.

Not getting any leads from a company I started with

I recently started as a 1099 with a large national company, in-home sales, commission-only.

Was supposed to be getting 2-3 appointments per day right after training (which was 10 days long).

A week has gone by and I have gotten 0 leads. At first, since I felt I needed more time to practice, I didn't ask anyone about it, and took the time to rehearse and learn more.

Knowing that you can trap yourself in constant preparation and "get ready" to oblivion, after two days I suppose it's time to just hop in ready or not, so I ask my manager, and she says that it takes them a day or two to start leads up when you're new. Ok, now we're two days after those two days, and still 0. Sent her a message to which she didn't reply the entire day. Tomorrow I'll call.

is this normal?

Need to get stickers off a laptop ASAP

I had many stickers on it for a long time, but now I have meetings lined up, and I can't be bringing that with me.

Tried applying heat to no avail, they tear off and leave paper behind.

Rough idea on price to put in a prefab shower in place of a tub?

​

I want to update my bathroom one step at a time, and this year I'd like to get the shower done, as the tub is in really bad shape (should have been done a long time ago).

The space is about 60 inches wide between the wall, I think, and I'm looking at prefabricated showers (so not custom tile) but I want it to be of good quality, so not plastic, but rather those large prefab tile-like materials (not sure what it's called, but it's heavy and hard).

Would like sliding glass doors, and to update the fixtures of course.

I'm not looking for a quote, I know it's impossible to get one with a few lines of text, but just a rough range of what I'm looking at in terms of demolishing current tub and waterproofing and putting in a nice shower stall including work and materials all-in.

I'm in Central NY. Any rough pricing range would be appreciated.
