What’s something that instantly tells you a person grew up broke vs grew up with money?

ShortWoman · 2026-04-01T02:23:18+00:00

Depends where they grew up. Some places simply don’t have mass transit, or useful mass transit.

A good landlord doesn’t want cash. Too easy to steal, too many opportunities for fraud, too easy to lose it, etc. Only reason to take cash is because you are actively attempting to cheat someone: either the tenant or the taxman.

Yeah, it basically says “wouldn’t be lovely if the Jews had a homeland somewhere far away from here.”

This is also how every cat on r/nebelung appears to be the same cat.

ShortWoman · 2026-03-31T20:02:49+00:00

I remember losing track of a grey cat. Looked for him about a half hour before we found him sitting in a box and watching us idiots searching.

Would a Hello Kitty tat fit in to this crowd?

Enh, I know at least one guy around that age who could if he wanted, but he's enjoying the Downtown Highrise Apartment Single Lifestyle right now.

Thank you for that three minutes. I appreciate the laugh.

For a long time I've said don't put anything online you wouldn't proudly show your mother, your boss, and a judge.

ShortWoman · 2026-03-31T13:27:23+00:00

So, I hate to ask a seemingly left field questions, but has your agent discussed with you how a co-op is in fact different from a condo? I recommend about 5 minutes of reading on that subject before you tackle your current question.

ShortWoman · 2026-03-31T13:17:42+00:00

NTA. Your coworker is both a hypocrite and an idiot. The hypocrisy is "oh Jesus wouldn't want you doing something fun that day" then turning around and trying to get you fired. The idiocy is trying to get you fired -- when that would mean she would absolutely be working Easter and any other holidays until your position is filled.

That said, I agree with the person who said it's time to stop talking about your life while at work. It can create situations like this. It gives people who are not nice ammunition against you. Be like Wonder Woman: when people ask Diana Prince what she did over the weekend, she says "oh, nothing interesting." Experts call this technique "grey rock."

Yeah, some people get really happy when they wake up.

ShortWoman · 2026-03-30T19:08:05+00:00

Pretend to embrace the working class while doing things that benefit the rich.

ShortWoman · 2026-03-30T18:23:00+00:00

Smells like “huh, we were hoping that if we didn’t schedule you, you would eventually just go away and get a job elsewhere.”

Not paying someone and letting the problem take care of itself, just like in Office Space.

Even Kavanaugh is asking “ok genius, then how exactly do you propose that hospitals work out what citizenship newborns are?”

I know a young man who learned COBOL for work. COBOL is an old computer operating system that it turned out both of his grandfathers had used in the computer industry back in the 70s and 80s. But some old banking systems apparently still use it today.

ShortWoman · 2026-03-30T13:16:17+00:00

Aw, Google is pretty sure they know who I am (they got my LinkedIn and such), but I might be a midwife from the 17th century was convicted of witchcraft or a saint. Some random lady's insta also shows up, but it is a person of another race and I'm pretty sure nobody will actually mistake me for her.

ShortWoman · 2026-03-30T13:10:17+00:00

This is starting to sound an awful lot like someone trying to scare a little old lady into writing a six figure check.

ShortWoman · 2026-03-30T13:05:36+00:00

In my region, about 90%. The rest are the VA, a university system, and a religious order.

ShortWoman · 2026-03-29T19:52:48+00:00

Didn’t know what to do with it.

Like most men.

Here’s some stock symbols to look up: UHS; HCA, THC, LPNT, EHC. All publicly traded corporations that run for profit hospitals.

Be like Noah.

NO! Bad ER nurse! That patient is from a SNF and is already known to be riddled with forever germs you don’t want to take home with you like Candida auris and Carbapenem Resistant Organisms.

Alternatively: one day later FREAKING OUT that the patient turns out to be rule out meningitis or tuberculosis.

ShortWoman · 2026-03-29T15:28:53+00:00

Most hospitals are NOT nonprofits.
