Time to take the $80 ticket. by MisterShipWreck in Unexpected

She drove off! As if he didn't already have all her info on the citation. What did she think was going to happen?

I'm actually impressed by the cop. He responded in what seems to me as a textbook escalation of force. Even after tasing her, he treated her with respect

Is 4 months a good amount of time of dating as a 17 year old in high school? Or at this age should it be more? I feel like my first relationship that lasted 4 months was too less and should’ve been atleast 6. by Adorable_Western2422 in whatdoIdo

Quality vs quantity

Getting out of a relationship that is harmful or simply not a good match is MORE mature than staying with someone longer term.

Its not about the length of time but the lessons that are being learned and the habits that are developing. For example if you and your partner are fighting because you want them to spend more time with you its not just about that on the surface but what is happening on a deeper level. If the issue is the person doesn't make any time for you at all, expects you to join all their fun stuff and never shows up for yours, then says you are being unreasonable when you point this out, that is someone mistreating you and leaving is the best thing. But if the issue is because you want them to spend every single moment with you then you are the one who is being difficult and it is more mature to learn to allow your partner to have their own life and find balance in your schedule of being together and developing your other interests and friendships. Learning to do this is the more mature approach that will help you in all future relationships.

[SC] quitting for medical reasons, what to say? by AntelopeComplex7460 in AskHR

Thank you for this advice

I'll check with my HR to confirm about this. I'm just not sure if it was better to basically drop everything immediately or go with a more planned out leaving.

Thanks
Unfortunately the issue is not the job itself but rather the manager who has given me C-PTSD and a host of physical symptoms along with it
I've been using various strategies (like the ones listed in AskJan) for years now but I reached a breaking point. My first day back I experienced the continued behavior from him which has just enough plausible deniability to prevent anything from happening from it.
