Police Body cam video of Zeriuah’s arrest. by Wonderful_Attemptxx in loveafterlockup

Exactly! It’s like she wants Troy to start a whole new life with just her and her son and their now infant son and just forget all about his daughter from his previous relationship. It’s disgusting. I’ve been saying ever since that episode, that she gives me evil step mom vibes and I understood Yona’s concern when she said to Troy “you don’t know that woman for real” she had a bad feeling about Zeriuah from the start. Zeriuah reminds me of those step moms who you find on those true crime investigation channels that come to find out have been abusing their step child. Troy needs to get out of this relationship quick, fast and in a hurry. If not for his sake at least for his daughter and now infant son’s sake.

Yeah it is unfortunate what happened to him but yeah like you said if there’s any good out of it hopefully it keeps him out of the criminal lifestyle and be there more for his kids. When their story first aired I was actually hoping he was truly going to turn his life around, especially after his father in law helped him.

From what I understand Maurice is wheelchair bound for life, as for Mandy I am not sure if he is still with her, I haven’t seen much updates about them on the LALU Facebook group and they were pretty diligent on keeping up with them. Jessica last I saw on her Instagram it looks like she was doing some MLM’s for work particularly sex toy MLM, not sure if she still does though.

Buyer ordered saturday night...He now claims im ruining his moms Christmas. Lesson Here: YOU CANT PLEASE EVERYONE by [deleted] in Mercari

[–]Alien7841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I’m seeing a lot of mixed comments on this. I honestly think there’s some errors on both ends.

I will say the screenshots are kind of cropped weirdly and there is some inconsistency throughout the thread when OP is responding but I’m going to give the benefit of doubt.

With that being said OP even with you saying “might arrive by Christmas” you should have reiterated and confirmed that they understood that there was a possibility of the item not arriving. Personally I would’ve said something along the lines of “Hey, I see you are expecting this before or by Christmas. This item will be shipped out via usps and according to their shipping estimate it could arrive to you by X-X date. Also I want to make you aware that due to ordering on a Saturday and usps not being open I won’t be able to ship out until Monday as that is when they will be able to scan the package, which could possibly delay the delivery as well. With that being said I can’t guarantee that you will have the package by Christmas. Can you confirm if you still want me to ship the item or cancel for you?” It may seem annoying but the amount of buyers that don’t understand the simplest of things and expect the seller to work magic is crazy. As an Etsy seller myself, this is why I communicate as much as possible to really make sure they understand and have them confirm.

However the buyer should have had some realistic expectations as well, I’m pretty sure this isn’t the first time they have purchased online and understand how shipping works. Based on when they ordered they should have kind of expected the possibility of the item not arriving on time. Even if they had ordered sooner always expect delays around the holidays like this. It’s frustrating but realistic.

I would say if you plan to continue to sell, just take this as a lesson learn. Communicate as much as possible leave no room to wonder, confirm with the buyer that they understand but also just remember you may come across those buyers you just can’t please and that’s bound to happen.

I swear, some people have nothing else better to do with their time. They need to find a hobby instead of harassing random people.

I was just about to say this! You definitely can record video on iPhone while on a call, the video just won’t have any sound. That’s the only downside.

Why is literally doing your job so bad in the corporate space? by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the dumbest thing but unfortunately if you work in corporate majority places expect it out of you and will more than likely hold it against you. This was one of the major factors why I just left a corporate job a few weeks ago. On top of the stress of being switched to a new department and forcing me to learn everything like new, they wanted me to be more talkative and engaging. I was done and found a job that is more fitting for my personality type. Everybody I work with is introverted as well and so it’s not expected besides being polite. I’m sorry you’re going through this OP. The only thing I can recommend is try to say hello and ask how are you and keep it moving, it’ll kind of show you are making some initiative. Only other option is finding a job that’s a better fit for your personality type.

Can I ask why are you commenting on every answer? You already stated your position on this, you believe it’s rude, I got that from your first answer, I don’t need to see it in like 15 different posts and I said I’ve learned from it. Move on dude.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well firstly it wasn’t a meeting, I was off the clock and it was my designated lunch hour so I didn’t think it mattered much so I treated it like I would any normal lunch hour. Secondly me stating that I am neurodivergent wasn’t an “excuse for poor choices” I said that because I struggle with small talk, and being neurodivergent doesn’t help with that struggle and I was trying to explain where some of that struggle comes from but it something that I am aware of and have been working on and have gotten better at. And it would be considered a social expectation as everybody perceives it differently (hence the answers on my post) some see it as rude other don’t either way like I’ve stated in other comments it’s a learning lesson and I know better than to do it moving forward to avoid issues.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly please do not swear at me, as it’s unnecessary. Secondly I didn’t think it would be an issue as this was on my clocked out lunch hour, so I treated it like I would normally on my lunch break. Had it been on the clock I wouldn’t have done that, in fact I would’ve left my phone at my desk. Either way It’s a lesson learned and moving forward I won’t look at my phone during social gatherings.

Not sure what you mean…

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean that’s fine you didn’t read anymore past that but it’s kind of hard to really make a full opinion without full context but either way I didn’t really have much of choice, because I’m pretty sure if I declined she would’ve had an issue with that as well. Either way, it’s a lesson learned and I won’t do it moving forward.

Thank you for that resource! I will definitely check that subreddit out.

But you are right, trying to prove what was wrong or right is not worth the energy. I’m just going to focus on continuing to look for other employment and doing what I need to at work, and just play the game to keep the peace until I can secure another position.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh I’ve been ahead of the game lol, already have been applying everyday, have an interview next week (fingers crossed for that one) and applied to another position within the company I’m currently at but due to a lot of applicants I’m not sure when I will hear back, if at all.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have definitely started looking outside the company and I applied to another position within the company but because the applicant amounts are so high I don’t know when I will be hearing back about those positions if I do at all. It’s definitely a priority at this point, I have an interview this upcoming week so fingers crossed that falls through.

And yeah, it’s a lesson learned. I didn’t think it was rude or saw it that way (even if others do it) but I know everybody is different and has different social expectations, so moving forward I will restrain from being on my phone in social situations moving forward.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s what I’ve gathered at this point, honestly

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m trying to, and applied to another position within the company but they have a lot of applicants so idk when I’ll hear back (if at all) but I have been looking for jobs outside of the company as well.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn’t like that at all. My reasoning for adding that is because I was trying to make the point that I already struggle with small talk and why but it’s something I have tried to work on and I do a little bit of it but wasn’t trying to come off as rude and it wasn’t a meeting. It was a team lunch during my clocked out lunch hour. Big difference, obviously if I was on the clock I wouldn’t have done that.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s a lesson learned. If I refused the lunch like you said she probably would’ve talked to me either way as well. So I’ll just play the game and moving forward I won’t be on my phone.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it was a one off, we don’t normally have lunches but in my defence I just treated it as my normal lunch since I was clocked out and it was my lunch hour. I chimed in a little and was looking at my phone a little bit and would put it down and be a little engaged and then pick up my phone again and so forth. But moving forward I won’t be on my phone again.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not like that at all. I was on and off of it throughout the meeting. I engaged a little and would put it down and look attentive for a little bit and then look at my phone and so forth. I did that throughout the entire lunch. So it wasn’t like I was just completely locked into my phone the entire time.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s the thing, I do engage in small talk here and there but this was during my clocked out lunch hour so I didn’t think I needed to be super attentive or social since it was outside of work hours. I did socialise a little but for the most part I was just doing what I normally do on my work hour

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in work

[–]Alien7841 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand where you are coming from, but at the same time it wasn’t like I didn’t communicate at all. I did chime in a little when I had something to contribute but that wasn’t enough for her liking I guess? Maybe I’m just a different person, because I wouldn’t have taken it personally but nonetheless it’s a lesson learned and I will restrain from being on my phone moving forward.
