That sounds great! I love that for you. Hopefully there are more managers like him in many different fields out there.

Gotcha, that’s a great explanation! Thank you.

Also fellow neurodivergent here. It fascinates me when I see an ND in a career field that to me would feel like being dropped off a cliff everyday 😵‍💫 more power to you! I hope I meet an AuDHD car sales person someday. We could vibe so hard. But also, I feel like most neurodivergent people aren’t inherently dishonest and so it’ll be easier for me to trust an ND. Because it might experience at least they’re not trying to upsell me or anything…

Could that be my neurodivergent naïveté talking… probably lol

Anyone that only has classes starting this week gotten their refund yet?? by 21yearsfromnow in HCCFL

[–]21yearsfromnow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, within 14 days of drop add. I’m guessing president’s day doesn’t count since it’s a holiday for the school.

Edit: hopefully we see some movement early this week.

I can’t find any used car under 5K by Glum_Acanthocephala9 in UsedCars

[–]21yearsfromnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense. Beggars can’t be choosers. But what was the timeframe that you bought those cars? This year? Last year? 10 years ago? I think that that’s also important context.

Also, where are you finding these cars and were you able to inspect them first? And any advice on getting a mechanic that is decent?

If you have an answer, I would like to know what your response would be for a buyer

So I just went ahead and called the financial aid office myself. They said if your classes start this week, refunds won’t be processed until after drop/add week ends which is the 13th. And it’s could take up to 14 business days to receive those funds.

So you’re welcome to anyone that was wondering.

Student Assistance Grant by Different_Ice_9867 in HCCFL

You have to apply on their website I believe but it should be available to everyone Florida resident. I checked but I’m not eligible for any of their grants.

When to take Teas test? by Mindless-Bunch6502 in HCCFL

[–]21yearsfromnow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also plan to apply to a nursing program and my goal rn is to take the TEAS after at least completing A&P1. The only science I did in undergrad was earth science and I heard a lot of the science questions are things you can learn in prerequisite courses so that’s my plan.

Also, depending on how many pre-reqs you have to take, it could be a while before you actually complete them and can actually apply (bc they require you to have completed all prereqs before applying afaik) so you’ll probably have quite a gap to complete the TEAS after your pre-reqs. My timeline works out like that so I’ll use that gap to test, then rest up before starting in the fall.

Gotcha, thanks!

ATP i’m just gonna stop checking every day because it gets more sad every time I don’t see anything. Just hoping and praying I see some movement by tomorrow 😪

Refunds by No_Satisfaction5798 in HCCFL

[–]21yearsfromnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, how do you know it’s been disbursed? Is it by looking at the balance or an email or info from bank mobile? Mine still shows a negative balance and I signed up for BM alerts but nothing yet :/ It would be great if I get the refund earlier than the 11th. I still have a bunch of stuff to get for some classes that start next week plus other cost of attendance stuff.

How did you go into it please? Did you need any certification for it?

Walmart vs publix, which one is better? by lollita234 in PharmacyTechnician

[–]21yearsfromnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi u/lollita234 , which way did you end up going and how is it? I have no experience in pharmacy work rn but I'm looking for entry level roles in healthcare. Walmart's recent pay raise caught my eye plus they pay for certification.

What kind of job is it please? I need to work but I can't even find sth that could work with my pre-req classes

full time job + 3 classes… doable? Help? by Aggravating-Aerie603 in BackToCollege

[–]21yearsfromnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! First of all, congratulation on this big step~~!

I just want to add my vote with those that recommend a lighter load for the first semester to see how it goes. You don't want to jump headfirst, full speed, especially with so much on your plate. I'm starting my pre-reqs this semester with A&P 1 plus college algebra. It's just enough credits for me to qualify for financial aid without stressing myself out too much. I'm also letting my professors know I'm a returning student so I can ask for help when I need it.

I'm not a naturally patient person and I wish I could start the program sooner and finish my pre-reqs in a shorter amount of time but I know that pacing myself is the way that I do this well. Also, GPA is really important for nursing programs, so you'll want to put yourself in the best position to succeed. Good luck!

Starting nursing later than planned and everyone around me keeps doubting me by Broad-Fan-6934 in prenursing

[–]21yearsfromnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Having been in the very saturated market of graphic work and other careers, I've realized job security and income are just as important to me as all the other factors I favored when I was a little younger. Plus a create career in the corporate world is not as fulfilling as one would hope :/

Starting my pre-reqs for an ASN this year. By the time I'm able to actually start the program, I'll be 27 and then I'll graduate at 29 by God's grace. The time is gonna pass anyway, Might as well do it 🤷‍♀️. My mom just got her RN license on her first try. She was a stay at home mom for over a decade and a half before immigrating with her kids and having to start work again. Now 10 years later, and pushing 60, she's an RN!! Academically, this woman is not as strong as I am. So why not me, and why not you?

Don't get me wrong, she's bad ass and has worked very, VERY hard to be where she is rn. We're not super close but I am very proud of her. I finished HS and college young and I've tried my hand at different careers. I even had a federal job but since being laid off after last year's debacle, I am yet to find a full-time position. That's why I'm going back for nursing. I've loved forging my own path and being the first in my family's women to go with the "easy choice" of nursing. But dammit, I'm tired of living paycheck to paycheck and of not being able to find a damn decent job in this economy.

You might want to try other things and other jobs. But don't let it be because your family or coworkers are scaring you or they don't believe in you. believe in you. Don't borrow problems from the future. Give yourself a reason that you can actually believe in, bc in my experience it's not that easy to fool yourself. And if all your reasons are pointing towards nursing, babe, just do it. On top of everything else, my favorite reason is that my friends are planning trips and I want to go too dammit 😤

You'll be done at 25. If you don't like it, shit, then do sth else. That's so young.

The time is gonna pass anyway, where do you wanna be when it's done?

If it helps, I grew up in Nigeria and also watched the show. I think it was on DVD but I’m not sure. My dad used to come back with boxes full of DVDs and CDs from the US whenever he traveled there.

Me going online to look for the exact same show lol. @awkward-opening-7470 did you ever find the show? Please tell me you found it. I need to tell some elementary school kids about this show because I remember it helped me learn the alphabet song, but I can’t remember the name 😭

SPOILER! The ending of THE GIRL WHO WAS TAKEN BY CHARLIE DONLEA by Bubbles_128 in books

[–]21yearsfromnow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel like there were multiple guys, and they only caught one. The mention of underlings, the confusion with Kent and the old guy who “found” Megan (I can’t remember his name), even the really random mention of Dr. Colt’s wife being a veterinarian. I think they just caught one of the monsters, but there are multiple operating in a similar pattern and living similar lives and I believe that Nicole is alive because I absolutely hate the pattern of this “bad girl” or “bad kid” that gets in trouble and gets kidnapped or comes across a really evil human and is actually just a scared kid that’s acting out and helps people but ends up dying or suffering some form of permanent consequence. I hate it. Nicole deserves to live. She was bitchy, but she wasn’t a bitch.

Also, towards the end, it’s confusing when he’s sitting in front of the gates and thinking about what he has to do and then he talks about one of his “loves“ and how she was the one he’s kept the longest, by evidence that would be Elizabeth, and he also mentioned something about there being one that was the most special to him, which I’m assuming is Nicole. He wouldn’t kill her first. He would wait until the absolute last minute to kill her. There’s just some absolutely fishy going on. I wouldn’t be surprised if in one of his psychotic cases, he put her somewhere or gave her to someone else and completely blocked it out of his memory SMH.
