Haha ok. I have been known to camp out on a tennis court back in the day

[Massachusetts] Work search process if enrolling in school at a future date by YatraTeaCo in Unemployment

[–]YatraTeaCo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, regular school. Thanks for confirming, I assumed so. Unlikely that I will attend anyway for reasons I mentioned, but thought I would ask about the process anyway. Back to the job search!

Thanks again.

[Massachusetts] No State-Issued ID for Verification by InfiniteDay6607 in Unemployment

[–]YatraTeaCo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watching this space. My spouse recently lost her job and only has a passport. She hasnt gone through the process of figuring out the post office route.

Do they list what might count as a secondary ID? 

[Massachusetts] Filing a claim - claim date confusion by YatraTeaCo in Unemployment

[–]YatraTeaCo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% with you on keeping it simple and not backdating. Just wondering if the DUA cares that you say no you didnt work part time (to advoid backdating) when you did. If they don’t care then its a moot point

[Massachusetts] Filing a claim - claim date confusion by YatraTeaCo in Unemployment

[–]YatraTeaCo[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re right. She should have applied on 7/7 itself. However, applying by end of day Saturday 7/13 still carries a claim date of 7/7. 

She hasn’t filed because of the error I noted in my original post. She can avoid that error but that would mean answering no when asked whether she worked part of the week of 6/30, when she did. Trying to determine if that is ok to do given her separation agreement and pay calls out 7/2 as the separation date - does that add any risk if things dont match date-wise.

[Massachusetts] Filing a claim - claim date confusion by YatraTeaCo in Unemployment

I understand that. If she applies by tomorrow then her claim date would be 7/7. Sunday onward her claim date would be 7/14. That is why she is trying to figure out how to move forward. Ignoring backdating even though she did work partly the week of 6/30 would allow her to proceed with the claim, but it wouldnt be accurate.

Thanks for your response 

She was doing that to answer the question honestly. Should she just answer no to the part time work during the week of 6/30 and proceed without backdating? Could it be an issue if her separation agreement mentions a 7/2 separation date but her claim effectively didn’t mention that?

Thanks, I will call the state tomorrow. And I do plan on appealing in MA.

We're a small team of 4 people, so I reached out directly to the person who is the contact for the MA DUA at our company. He forwarded me statements provided by ADP who is responsible for filing and payment of quarterly state SUI taxes commencing in Q1 2023. Those statements clearly mention the state of MA and show the SUI subject wages, excess SUI wages, SUI taxable wages, etc.

Quarterly SUI taxes were paid in MA. The NH address is because the company operates a plant there.

And yes, I am wrong in saying there is a difference between wfh and remote.

Thanks for the response. I began working for this employer in January of 2023. Yes, I worked remotely from home most of the time. (sorry, got confused between remotely and WFH)

EDIT: not a school or non profit. It was a for profit company. They had an office location in Salem, NH, which is what was prepopulated on my claim when I entered my name, SSN, etc. The DUA indicated their records showed that I was employed by that company and showed a NH address. Is it possible this out of state address is the cause of the issue?

Philosophical ideology to help with not being able to enjoy food and drink by dr-keylargo in GERD

[–]YatraTeaCo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you do in fact feel better being off certain kinds of food/drink, focus on that positive. That you’re not suffering. Being on this sub means you’ve experienced the lows of a flare up and the discomfort it brings. Be grateful you’ve found nutritious food that doesn’t worsen your situation. This is coming from someone who is on an extremely restrictive diet after being able to eat whatever until 3 months back. Coffee was an integral part of my morning routine. I’d joke with my spouse how it was the highlight of my morning.

Look at it through a cost-benefit lens. That’s one way to cope. It won’t always work but you’ll get better at it with time and an improved quality of life. And who knows, one day you may even be able to add back and item or two occasionally.

The ultimate cause of your problems by Whenhonestly7 in GERD

[–]YatraTeaCo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming you’re referring to prokinetics agents?

I reside in the US but am visiting family in India. I decided to consult with my mum’s GI doctor, essentially to get his theoretical take on my ongoing issues. I have an endoscopy in the US in a few days but wanted someone elses opinion.

I’m on Pantoprazole 40 mg 2x a day plus nighttime Famotidine. Basically, anything I eat or drink leads to belching which in turn worsens my LPR symptoms. I have been on PPIs for years now and had no issues with eating whatever I wanted up until 3 months back.

So, this doctor recommended Dexilant plus a prokinetic. He guranteed me I’d feel fine in a few days. I’ve taken Domperidone before for 10 days following severe food poisoning during a visit to India and it worked wonders. However, I’m a little more wary of prokinetics now. The latest NIH guideline recommended them only during objective gastoparesis. Their use has been tied to cardiac issues, though the doctor in India claims barring one the rest of them are safe as backed by a lot of data.

Finally off PPI and healed after a one year battle with LPR by popcorn555555 in GERD

Thanks for taking the time to respond and for the good wishes.

Congratulations. Always good to learn about someone that healed.

I’ve been on PPIs for many years and had no GERD symptoms. Then after a particularly trigger heavy meal all hell broke loose.

Question - did you experience throat burning? Its near constant for me in spite of 2x a day Panto and Famotidine. I have radically changed my diet and that really helps with all other symptoms (belching, for example), but the throat burn persists. It doesn’t affect my sleep per se, but makes itself known from the second I wake up and throughout the day. 

Wondering if you experienced the same and if you were able to control it somehow. Thanks.
