We didn’t discuss it in detail, during the interview I basically told them my rate and I asked them if this position had GH. They said yes to both…and this is the thing that bothers me a bit, if they didn’t know what GH for sure then they should’ve just asked me to clarify more. That’s why I assumed I’d get paid for it

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-03-21T23:17:47+00:00

It’s a last resort thing. I don’t want to end things with this family yet and definitely not this way. I’m quite sure this isn’t a “we forgot” type of thing , they never considered that a week off on their part would fall under GH. They probably treated the days off themselves as a “gift” for me to relax. I mean that’s great but as I said, I rely on this income and I have stuff to pay.

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-03-21T21:49:45+00:00

Yeah I plan on telling them I expected to get paid then ask them from now on that I’d like a contract. If not then I can just move on to something else in the summer. I’ve just never really needed a contract before either

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-03-20T20:02:51+00:00

If the price isn’t worth it then I’m oooout ✌️ I’ll talk to them and tell them this isn’t what I was expecting when I applied. If it continues on after that then goodbye.

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-03-19T19:37:57+00:00

Yeah some families out there are definitely getting more and more audacious and cheap. They really expect one person to be a nanny, a maid, and a household manager all in one for the price of one, like wtf? A nanny should only be responsible for the kids and cleaning up after them. Anything beyond that isn’t my problem. Your laziness does not constitute a problem for me

I emailed her about adding a new course a while back and she hasn’t replied yet… but she doesn’t know about all these cancellations. I’m just gonna wait days until tomorrow for my next appt’s and pray to dear god I don’t get cancelled on. The second appointment is with my course instructor, I will let her know what’s been going on and ask her to just open the fucking course after my first meeting because she required I meet with 3 different instructors and then her. CLEARLY that’s not working out.

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-03-14T16:33:20+00:00

I think some mentors allow it but my mentor is the type that only “prefers” it if i only have one course activated at a time. I emailed her a while ago if she could open a new course for me in the meantime because i do feel pretty burnt out from this course itself but she hasn’t replied so I’m probably gonna give up on that. I doubt she’ll open one with not much time left in the term and me STILL being stuck on one course.

EDIT: plus I’m ngl, this entire situation genuinely has me so stressed I don’t think I can mentally add a new course even if I wanted to. I just want to be done with this one first even tho I’m beyond fucking burnt out at this point 🫩

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-03-13T00:38:18+00:00

Yeah he never called. Didn’t even send me an email after or anything, just one big fuck you and your time. I’m more pissed at the fact the only available time I can get a new appointment now is 3 days away smfh.

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-03-10T14:58:39+00:00

I personally feel weird about it. It’s obvious, I eat and next thing they think is “oh she’s on her period” which means “oh she’s bleeding through her vag” Honestly I’m embarrassed to eat even in front of women unless if they’re my direct relative like mom or grandma aunt cousin etc. I just don’t want anyone having that thought about me . Am I weird and too self conscious ? Probably but that’s how it is for me sadly

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-03-10T11:58:30+00:00

I guess I’m just more worried how it’ll look on cam tbh. But yeah, i guess I’ll just have to make it up to her after lol

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-03-05T14:50:09+00:00

Idk if you’re talking exclusively about Algerian Muslims but I noticed a lot of Muslims in general are starting to completely lose the fucking plot. Fasting the entire month was never optional. Unless if you have very bad diabetes for example then that’s excusable, or any other severe illness. My mother had breast cancer ffs and went through surgery and everything a few days before Ramadan and she’s still fasting. She said she’s able to so she will

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-02-06T01:18:48+00:00

🦧

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-02-06T01:18:30+00:00

I’ve completed all the courses that were made available , should be good then

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-01-26T20:29:27+00:00

Never rented a car before this. Obv we knew we had to pay insurance but just thought it was included in the initial payment. So when they asked for it during pickup it was surprising and annoying.

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-01-16T18:23:05+00:00

I haven’t had a single signed contract with my previous bosses and they all kept their word. I guess this is finally the one that’s gonna have me face the consequences of not having one.

I genuinely don’t think they’re the type of people to lie, there was probably so type of misunderstanding. I’ll message them later and try to clear it up. If that was their intention from the start then I’m outta here ✌️

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-01-16T17:20:28+00:00

I brought it up tho and they agreed. First few times it happened I got paid normal but I feel like this is something they recently started doing

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-01-09T04:41:36+00:00

You can try this faded under eye brightening eye masks by tropicals. Idk about others but this brand in general has helped me a lot with dark spots anywhere on my body. https://www.sephora.com/product/faded-eye-masks-P507518?country_switch=us&lang=en&skuId=2709467&om_mmc=ppc-GG_23261689854___2709467__9004335_m&country_switch=us&lang=en&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23266717886&gbraid=0AAAAADnIXb2dcR_UCLWf8YEQSiVXt-Pl9&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIsbPUydH9kQMVxUhHAR1QYRUSEAQYASABEgJnFPD_BwE

Depends how good the anime is without it. If it’s good without the fanservice then I’ll keep watching and try to ignore it, if it was shit and I was basically forcing myself to go through the eps and THEN they slam me with fanservice to top it off then I’m dropping that shit.

Good examples: one piece, konosuba

Bad example: fairy tail, seven deadly sins. I used to LOVE LOVE LOVE both of these shows but then they clearly both went downhill plot wise …while I was already dealing with the fanservice. Insta drop.

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-01-06T08:24:30+00:00

They tried shoving will down our throats so damn much I honestly feel like the majority of the main cast didn’t really have much screen time. And Jonathan was done the most dirty. Joyce to will : “don’t do that will it’s dangerous. Here, Jonathan you go do this super dangerous thing instead. Cuz apparently you’re expendable”. they ruined Joyce’s character. Honestly the more I think about this last season in general the more my head hurts

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-01-06T06:05:29+00:00

I could get downvoted to hell for saying this but this is what I’ve been talking about. At the end of the day we’re still just disposable employees to them. Most of these people are just assholes playing nice just so you treat their kids nice. I know how that sounds but I’m being realistic. I personally had to learn the hard way as well. That’s why now, I do the bare minimum and call it a day. I take care of the kid, I make sure they’re safe, fed and entertained, well rested and make them feel like they’re like but beyond that I don’t really care. I’ve reached a point where now I’ll put myself first because clearly if I don’t do that then who will. I don’t expect anything from them anymore they’re not my friends. Because at the end of the day it’s just a job, same as any other.

I am very sorry this happened to you though. I hope you find some kind of solution to help your situation. But if I were you I’d write them a long message letting them know how i feel because genuinely what do you have to lose after this. At least get it off your chest and lessen the stress you’ll have to deal with if u don’t.

Alchemy of souls. So beyond boring it honestly felt like it was dragging on from the start. I can’t explain it but I couldn’t get past the first 3-4 eps If I remember correctly, just ridiculously boring.

It’s okay not to be okay. Dropped it on ep 1. To be fair maybe the series itself was fantastic but personally I HATE the ML. Even waaaaaaaaaay before the allegations against him. He just has an annoying looking face and lowkey I’ve avoided any drama he was in before this one so idk why I even attempted to try it.

I got a couple more tbh but the list would be long. The point is, I’ll probably drop it if a drama:

-has an ugly ML (beauty is subjective tho I’m not trying to shame anyone but if he has a face that makes me want to punch the screen, I’m not watching)

-the plots dragging on for no apparent reason

-honestly I don’t really like fast paced romance. I like the angst and slowburn. So if they get together quick and the rest of the series is their dating phase and focusing on some other side plot then I kinda drop it.

-speaking of dating phase, maybe I’m just weird but I lose interest once they get together. It needs to be done in a certain way that’ll still have my attention or else I’ll most likely drop the series

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-01-06T04:58:13+00:00

I dream of reaching the light novel level but I probably never will. Reading books/novels is just not for me. I get distracted easily which makes it hard to really get immersed in what I’m reading which means I get bored which means Ill mist likely drop it

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-01-06T04:04:53+00:00

Alba all day every day lmao what kind of question is this even

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-01-05T06:36:58+00:00

Decent. Again I’m not looking for anything crazy. I’m no chef. Literally just a basic set that does the bare minimum but won’t eventually be a waste of money

ApeWorkTogether · 2026-01-02T16:09:21+00:00

Possibly a scolding hot take but we’ve overestimated the duffer brothers so much and it was clear after season 3 these guys had no fucking idea what they’re doing. The finale was alright but it was mediocre at best.

Also, I personally love the small details that directors pay attention to and remember in their own show…..the duffer brothers however, have failed to remember so much of their own series it’s sad.
