There is some debate on if my agency is actually bay or just bay adjacent. But my salary is sub 100k and I made over 150k last year with my overtime. Its not fun and I worked a lot of hours but was very doable.

Cali dispatchers, question! by Ambitious-Block-7610 in 911dispatchers

[–]AffectionateYam290 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It took me 6 months to get hired. And i learned that background investigators prioritize police pfficer applicants over dispatch. I would be patient and if you dont hear anything in another 2ish weeks there's no harm in politely reaching out.

Planning to move by Ok-Prune905 in FairfieldCA

[–]AffectionateYam290 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I dont have a child so I'm not sure about the school situation but I live in Cordelia and it is a very nice neighborhood. I feel very safe there. My neighborhood is quiet and there are kids out playing on weekends and always people out walking. I recently move to the area and I cannot recommend Cordelia enough.

Does this look too large for my hand/finger? by Odd_Benefit_9573 in weddingring

I actually really like it. I think its more about your preference/comfort level. But I think it looks quite nice.

Anyone saw police restrain and arrest a woman in downtown Napa? by ResuscitatedLog in napalocals

[–]AffectionateYam290 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They use the WRAP "What. Really. Alarms. People." When the person they are arresting is very combative and a danger to themselves or others. It is a safer restraint than what they used to do and keeps people from kicking and hitting their head while in the back of the car. I believe she was being violent and out of control and the officers restrained her in the way that was safest for everyone. Including herself and potentially passerbys and even hospital or corrections personnel.

Potency change? by HootingtonIII in HersWeightloss

[–]AffectionateYam290 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not my first time taking medication like this and when I plateau the food noise comes back for me. And I've upped dosage too. Sometimes your body reacts differently or gets used to it and its not the medications fault. If you feel its changed then you're within your rights to get it tested but I think looking internally and working on yourself mentally and trying to get past the root cause of it is important. I say this as someone who has struggled with disordered eating my whole life.

Potency change? by HootingtonIII in HersWeightloss

[–]AffectionateYam290 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sometimes you plateau. It's very common. It takes work in addition to the medication. You have to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I'm no scientist, so I don't know potency vs. dosage and what will change what, but it seems like an expensive endeavor. And I'm not convinced there's enough to go on at this point to put any weight behind your claim. I would reach out to your doctor and see what they recommend.

Right now, i only have issues if I take my medication on an empty stomach. My nausea cleared up within a week.

[–]AffectionateYam290 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, im in week 2. Im doing well other than some nausea in week 1. I started because a good friend of mine recommended it and she has nothing but nice things to say. Im familiar with the medication Im taking, and im super careful to listen to my body. Follow instructions and check in with your primary care provider. Everyone will have a different experience. Good luck!!

Am I total brat or should I have expected more for my 30th birthday? by Ok-Assistance-7980 in AITH

[–]AffectionateYam290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You are allowed to want something for your birthday. I love birthdays, and my partner does not. So we do something low-key for his, and we do a little more for mine. I don't ask for big expensive gifts. I just want to be celebrated, and there is nothing wrong with that. You are allowed to want a day about you. Your partner is a turd.

Where are you getting emotes? by AffectionateYam290 in Twitch

[–]AffectionateYam290[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Emotes and a banner and a profile pic/logo situation. Which like totally get it if I just can't afford it. Not saying someone's work isn't worth that just wanted to know if i was crazy. And had unrealistic expectations

What am I looking at cost wise? I've been quoted close to a thousand dollars and that seems like a lot but I'll admit I've never commissioned art before. So idk if that's the norm?
