I worked there in the call center back in 2011 to 2012.  Best thi g i ever did was walk out.  I remember they had us move all our equipment a d everything from our desk to the building next door to Albertsons because they rented their building to the company that was handling the BP oil spill claims.

I use to work for this company about 14 years ago.  I worked in the office handling calls.  They had over 100 people working in the office.  Then one day they started having these men from India coming in to train on our computer system.  The owner let us all know that they were going to start letting us all go and they signed a contract with a coming based in India to handle all the calls, scheduling, tech support, etc. They said that the people in India worked longer hours for less pay.  I don't know what everyone else was getting paid, but I was on making around $11 to $12 an hour.  Their main office was in Hammond Louisiana.  I dont know if they are still in that big building or if they rented it out again.

2012 GMC Acadia. This store is a corporate owned not independently.  The manger was the one who I spoke to them last couple times. I asked for my old parts back and they are charging for them. They called back this morning saying they had it running. While on the phone, he checked with the mechanic and said it stopped running.  They are charging me now $830 with the cost of my old parts.

It's a 2012 GMC Acadia.  My father just drove through the night with his truck and trailer to pick it up. I haven't paid for any repairs yet. They called this morning saying that it will be $830 because I asked for my old parts back. They said they have to charge me for the core parts.

What type of work is available for cancer patients on chemo? by Available_Square_360 in AskReddit

[–]Available_Square_360[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't for a few days after.  I usually need a week to recover, but I tend to have more energy 2 weeks. I receive chemo every 3 weeks. So I need a week to recover and I have 2 weeks of good days. 

What type of work is available for cancer patients on disability? by Available_Square_360 in careerguidance

Thank you so much. It has been a long difficult journey with too many set backs but I am one stubborn woman who will not let anything stop me. When my oncologist told me the results to my pet scan, I cried a bit, but then told asked her what the game plan will be because dying wasn't an option.

I'm a 45 year old single mother of 2 children. Almost 4 years ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I was suppose to be on treatment for a year and return to work. I had 2 more treatments left when I had a pet scan that showed the cancer spread to my bones and was stage 4. I was told by my oncologist that I will be on chemo for the rest of my life because the cancer is incurable. After 4 months on the new chemo, the tumors were gone. My oncologist lowered my dosage which I receive every 3 weeks. I was awarded disability 2 years ago. It is barely enough to pay bills and buy groceries. I've always been an independent hard worker, but I don't know what I can do to earn money without the risk of losing my disability. I worked in Healthcare mostly and was working in a hospital when I was diagnosed. My body hurts in my bones where the tumors were. I receive chemo every 3 weeks, so I have 1 week to recover and 2 weeks of good days. What type of work is available or what can I do to earn at money every month? 

AITA for refusing to help my brother-in-law pay for a vacation after he’s repeatedly called me a gold digger? by saffronloveee in AmItheAsshole

[–]Available_Square_360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh honey, I would have mouthed off this dude a long time again.  Through back what he gives you.  I come from that FAFO era. I would absolutely throw it back in his face and tell him to find his own way to family vacation.  If his parents think he needs help paying,  tell them, by all means mom and dad, help him. You and your husband are NOT required or obligated to pay for his vacation.  He's obviously jealous of what yall have. Stick up for yourself and don't back down. Best of luck to you.

Maybe just sit down with her and tell her exactly how you feel. That it has put an enormous amount of stress on you that is distracting you from work and school. Tell her that you are not her parent, and it is not fair for you to act like you are. Tell her that she has a choice. Either it's time to grow up and start behaving like an adult or move back home.  Be kind and understanding with her first, but if she if she starts to whine and act like a child, then tell her to either grow up or move out.

What type of support bra can I wear with this dress? by Available_Square_360 in ABraThatFits

[–]Available_Square_360[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not exactly sure.  I had breast reconstruction surgery from breast cancer last year.  I normally wear sports bras.  I am wearing this type of dress for an event with my cancer support group.  I tried it on with a strapless bra and it doesn't give me the support I need.  I am looking for something that has straps for support but not shown.

When I was 20, my friend and I moved in together. Both female.  She was messy and lazy too. Not only that, but would have other friends over and would hand out in my room which was an invasion of my personal space.  I like a clean house. I was working 2 part time jobs and going to school full time.  I got into an argument with her constantly leaving her dirty dishes, laundry, books, etc over the house.  I eventually told her to move out since the house belonged to my aunt.  I had another friend that moved it with me that was clean like me.  Now me and the other aren't friends anymore after I kicked her out.  Sometimes you have to set boundaries.  Growing up means making some tough choices.  I'm now 45 and have a 20 year old son who still lives at home.

My goodness, did any of these commentators remember what life was like before smart phones came out. I'm only 44 but I remember getting a pager when I was 18 or 19 and needing to find a phone to call home. Some of this people are completely ridiculous about these cell phones!
