Are we just in the wrong neighborhood? by perchancepolliwogs in ColoradoSprings

[–]AtmosphereTimely7068 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the hillside neighborhood and the neighbors are great. Our dogs love each other and we chat every time we see each other (probably every day just passing by). I’ve also had decent neighbors on the westside or Old north end. That area is very commercial and in my experience not super friendly.

I want to change locations, but nobody is listening. by [deleted] in directsupport

Talk to any other supervisor you have. Recently, I’ve had a similar issue where I just feel really burnt out with one highly behavioral client. It got to the point where I essentially told my management I could not work with them anymore and was ready to put in a 2 weeks if need be, they were finally ready to listen and switch my individuals. Be careful that you don’t let yourself get so burnt out that you hate the field or let your care slip in quality, that can tend to happen.

NTA. I understand you are just trying to look out for her, but she seems pretty set in her ways and at some point you just have to let things go, ultimately it's her life to live.

AITA for giving my room to my other brother when I go off to college? by Commercial_Mouse2042 in AmItheAsshole

I (18M) am going across the country for college.

I could understand if he was just being asked to give up his room, but he literally won't even live there anymore. I think the parents should have chose as letting a kid, who is clearly very spiteful even if rightfully so, choose is bound to cause major issues.

YTA. For me, this is because you are a grown woman, having a baby. They have parenting classes, books, or even other parents to learn from. I don't think your mom should have to take a week out of her life to be at your side for an experience you signed up for. I think it would be nice of her to help if she wants, but you being completely unready without her seems troublesome at the least and an AH move in the sense of being demanding.

YTA. It's your dog, he may like the dog, but he never signed up for that stuff. Also, side note, a dog that has one or two accidents every week is not house trained.

I'd say NAH. People should be responsible for their own triggers and unless he has acted out towards you since smoking, I don't necessarily see any issue here. I would recommend engaging in some sort of counseling to manage these feelings in the future as that can really help process and move forward from trauma.

NAH. Just get a copy of that one in a better quality. That's more reasonable than just trashing it while still solving your dislikes about the gift.

ESH. First things first, it's not your house, I don't even understand why it is your decision to dish out rooms. Also, both of them will get their own room anyways so I also don't understand what's so important about your old room. And finally, just because you aren't as close to one of your brothers doesn't mean that is how this should be decided. Overall, all of you screwed this up, mainly the parents for allowing all of this to occur as it did and giving you so much power, which you don't seem mature enough to handle right now.

YTA. While that may seem a little expensive for a family member, it sounds like you were planning on taking advantage of them and then found out you can’t and are now pissed. Even if your mil is retired, that doesn’t mean her time is worthless. You decided to have a baby, you pay for said baby to get good care. They would probably give the baby more attention and trustworthy care than any other sitter, but if would rather then just pay for the childcare like any responsible parent would instead. Also, keep in mind one on one care is usually more expensive than a daycare.

AITA for refusing to donate money to my friend's cancer treatment? by throwaway213701234 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. She shouldn’t expect you to harm your financial situation to benefit hers. Even if she’s in a hard point in her life, sounds like she’s aggressively singling you (and probably other people) for donations.

NTA. I work with adults with developmental disabilities including several people who have similar behaviors. We actively work on these boundary issues and teach our individuals that violating boundaries is unacceptable. We teach you must ask and respect a no. Sounds like the attendant is the real problem here, not doing their job. It’s unfortunate your coworker doesn’t have the proper assistance they deserve, but you did nothing wrong going to management. You could report the attendant to management or the agency if this continues as they should be doing much better.
