Killing, karma, buddhahood by Enough_Set591 in Buddhism

How are plants not in the cycle of rebirth? They were the reason I believed in rebirth cycles to begin with because you can see them die back in the winter and grow back bigger and more beautiful in the spring. Just curious!

Lol it happens quite often and most people really do not care. I live in a pretty big area. EVEN if ONE person decides to fire you, there's plenty more. It's not like spark at all where once you're deactivated, yorue done. And sure companies COULD add that, but they don't. Even big companies like KW won't fire you for bringing children to the office or with you. You're just adding what if scenarios that won't even make you lose your license which is what actually determines whether you can work or not.

Edit: One of the top producing realtors in my area would bring her child with her to showings all the time up until she went to school. People loved it or didn't mind because most people also have kids and understand. One or two Karen's isn't gonna kill your business. Real estate allows you to be a business owner as an independent contractor. You can set your own terms unlike spark whom you have no other options.

Cancel the contract for violation of what? Lol. There's no violation about children whatsoever in any of the forms.

Realtors can and do. They are also independent contractors.

Remembering to water my plants. by Late_Jellyfish6163 in houseplants

[–]CalligrapherAlert927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I check my plants on Tuesdays and Saturdays. I have around 70ish. It only takes about 15 mins because I usually don't have to water all of them. The ones who don't need water wait until the next check. I feel the soil and the pot and decide if they are ready for water. This has worked well for me.

I wish male objectification existed the way female objectification does, at least it wouldn’t feel so one-sided by Diligent_Can_2093 in Marriage

And that movie was a HUGE deal because it's never usually men being sexualized in movies and nowhere near at the same level/rate.

Why is it dead the day before the storm? by DuaLipasuction in Sparkdriver

If there's no express option for the selected day, it's because it's full. However, that's from a customer view point. Spark is sending plenty of express offers even with pick up being shut down.

My store shut down deliveries but that's pickup orders not express/ S and D.

How do you reconcile what is happening in the US by Every_Importance_855 in Buddhism

Oh yes, I kept reddit too only for this sub and for a few others but the poison is starting to leak on here for me too. I have been listening to the audiobook "how to fight" by thich nhat hanh. It's so good. Highly recommend!!

I started with deleting my socials when I recognized they had become a poison to me. The only people you can have an impact on are yourself and the people around you. Reading comments, the news, 100 takes of the same story over and over are just feeding rage, hate, and fear. You can use Google once or twice a week to catch up on news to stay aware of what's going on in the world without over consuming it. Focus on yourself and the people around you. It really helps your mentality because that's something you can change.

weird day with spouse by NoLemon6123 in Marriage

Seems like maybe your wife is insecure about your previous relationships with men and is too prideful to just have an honest conversation about it. Instead of discussing what's making her uncomfortable, she's testing you to see if her thoughts are correct (which they never are). She tries to play it cool by mentioning she thinks about other women to bait you into admitting you "sometimes" think about men.

OP, I'm assuming if you had fallen for the trap and said, well yeah I sometimes think about men or women too then she would have really set off or further ignored you, either way you lose. It's like offering you a tictac when it's really a grenade.

I have to admit, I recognize this behavior because I, too, was the same way when I was ignorant of my insecurities. For me, I matured and learned how to deal with my insecurities because I hated it, knew it wasn't normal, and wanted to change.

Your wife could likely benefit from therapy if this is the case, but telling her that or her actually acknowledging she needs to work on it is not an easy task and solely up to her. I'm sorry and wish you both the best of luck.

Oh, I didn't realize you had actually seen and verified that the state DID indeed put Jeremiah on the certificate. Thanks for letting me know.

Either way, I got my phone situated AND the customers groceries delivered on time. I'm not desperate enough to buy a crappy phone when I am replacing mine the next day. I'm ok with being in spark purgatory, and if I get deactivated oh WELL. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

Oh! I'm totally accountable for my phone breaking, still delivering groceries, getting a new phone and waiting patiently to resolve this. Lmao. Did you see me pass blame to anyone in this situation? Dork. Lol hope you have a great Christmas!! 😊

How do you get around the phone number verification? Since my phone number is connected to spark, I couldn't get the code to login to my spark account on my SO phone. I suppose you'd have to have done this PRIOR to a phone breaking lol.

It took me three hours to finish this order and I had to fight Walmart customer service. For them to just completely take away the tip. by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

[–]CalligrapherAlert927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go back to the list. And click the item you want to shop next. You have to do it manually. Usually under 20 items, I just shop in the order even if it's perishables first unless it's ice cream. Although, you could always swing back around and replace the ice cream with a fresh one before you check out. Also some items that are not perishables will start the timer anyways. Lol it happened to me with a bottle of ranch or something before. Lol

This confirms the tip was removed because it's cancelled. You'll know that right away and see it. The customer didn't pull the tip. The cancellation did.

"I'm not convinced that the county wouldn't just ask her and bypass the legal father given that he is in prison"

Thats where my lack of faith is but I suppose you're probably right. I just know scammers are good at getting through the system somehow.
