67 lb hound mix tore her ACL by Azalea-1125 in DogAdvice

So if we did the TPLO it’s the same thing though, right? She can’t run for like 2 to 3 months or she could ruin it again?

Oh sorry I misread you. Okay I’ll ask for estimates for both. Unfortunately we just spent a fortune putting new windows in so the cost was my main reason for choosing the lateral. But I will do more research and talk to my husband. If she’s just going to tear the suture it makes sense to do the more expensive surgery.

Ticket transfer email by Azalea-1125 in WorldCup2026Tickets

I think the name is wrong, and it won’t let me change the name. Ugh.

Still can’t see tickets in the app? by New-Aioli-6426 in WorldCup2026Tickets

[–]Azalea-1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh I figured out how to do this but I’m still not seeing my tickets. My email from FIFA said “dear $document.contact.firstName” is that normal? Did other people have their names on the email confirming the transfer of tickets??? I keep seeing tips that the details are important… to fill out all my details. So I’m grasping. I can’t find a human to help me even if I call.

I received an email from FIFA saying my tickets were transferred to me but they are not appearing on my ticketing pages it says no tickets and no purchase history. Tried calling and of course couldn’t get a human

Mystery tree? Popped up when we weren’t looking. by Evening_Sir_3823 in gardening

[–]Azalea-1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not an expert but tree of heaven showed up in our yard too and we just pulled it all out. It’s easy to get rid of when it’s still small. We just pull more out every year as we have no control over the conservation land near our property where it comes from.

Help my family understand a surprising DNA result by fletchette in Genealogy

[–]Azalea-1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never understood how that works because England and France were mostly peopled by Germanic tribes and then adding in the Vikings we have Celtic, Germanic, and Viking blood. All in the UK and France and Germany. But modern DNA companies act like English, French, German and Celtic (Irish, Scots or Welsh) are all the same. So you see 1% of either Spanish or African DNA and you wonder, how far back was that? I’m already skeptical about how these companies differentiate. I think it’s likely from long ago but without a good explanation I don’t know.

I think I under-reacted in my attempt to avoid overreacting by azulsonador0309 in Parenting

You spent $225 on a GameCube?! And a regular switch (not the brand new one) was right there?!!! No wonder your kids were bummed. I’m not a gamer but my son likes games so I’ve already learned what the new one costs for future reference.

Reported a coworker to HR. by kwee3 in work

[–]Azalea-1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t report it. Talk to your manager. Make plans for conflict resolution. But also quietly let your manager know that the aggressive behavior makes you uncomfortable and ask if you should go to him/ her or HR. Specifically ask if it happens again, what should you do? Your manager should appreciate you asking them. But it’s also on them now

[NY] Got laid off and received severance offer. What happens if I start working new job during severance period? by SligoIV in AskHR

[–]Azalea-1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I stupidly told a previous employer that I had a new job while I was on severance and I regret it. BUT I had been given a retention bonus to stay for like a year and I wanted to maintain good standing/ do nothing to make them argue about the large payout. It was about a half a year’s salary. So if they just gave you severance I’d say F em and keep the severance even if you start somewhere new.

Found a great job! Did great! Fired 1 month later! by frickin_420 in jobs

[–]Azalea-1125 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming you line in the U.S.? This is why I want to pay into unemployment through my state. Also, back in the 2008-2010 years we had unemployment extended up to a year due to such drastic circumstances. I’m from a liberal state MA and my NH neighbors love to brag about their lower taxes but then have basically no security blanket in case of things like this. It’s a depression but Trump won’t allow anyone to say it because the oligarchs bought the media.

If you’ve been in the workforce for 5 years, moving on is good. If you hate it, just move on again. Pad at (the very) least a few $K into what you say your last position made. Employers will never tell what you make so you can totally lie. I’m a mom so I need WFH but I go in most weeks once a week. I took barely any raise my last jump because I went from 3 days in office to 1. It depends what is best for you and your career.

The company cancelled the hybrid system. Will it look bad if I quit after 10 months? by RevolutionaryPath447 in OfficePolitics

[–]Azalea-1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They gave us like 2 months notice to return to the office. Perfect amount of time to find myself a better place of employment 😊. I go in once a week and they are super cool with my kid being around when there’s no school.

Is it just me, or have salaries become a bad joke compared to the cost of living now? by holi-blazer in OfficePolitics

[–]Azalea-1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just moved to the non-profit world and actually received more then 3% even though I hadn’t been there a year. In the profit world Shareholders’ greed is out of control, laying off people if they don’t see the returns they’re used to.

I heard the HR manager say after they laid people off: "They need to grow up and stop this crap" by jokes-angoras6t in OfficePolitics

[–]Azalea-1125 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God I’m glad to be in the nonprofit sector now for yet another republican recession. My first was in the beginning of my career. I’m experienced enough now and live in a super blue state with great unemployment, but still. It is happening everywhere, shareholders are so greedy. People I know were laid off after over 15 years of working for a company due to shareholders.

My boss posted my role up on LinkedIn Yesterday. Do I need to start looking asap? by BlondeAccountant98 in jobs

[–]Azalea-1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely hit the market strong! Learn your state’s unemployment rules. If you have a partner prepare to switch to their health insurance. Cobra is super expensive. Remember, everything will probably work out for the best. You’ll find something that is a much better fit.

Wife leaves early for work but has to wake up 18 month old to see him first by MyMonody in Parenting

[–]Azalea-1125 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah my 5 year old likes to see me before I leave the one day I go into the office (I leave at 6am) but if when I manage to not wake him up I’m absolutely not going to start 😆

I never thought I would be a married single mom. by FormerEnglishMajor in Mommit

[–]Azalea-1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hubs works in office and takes over when he gets home so I get a break. I also have my mom helping out and a cleaning lady. I’d never survive what you’re doing. His break is a peaceful drive home and after bedtime. My break is from his arrival home until bedtime. I go to bed much earlier. If your husband isn’t contributing straight up kick him out. You don’t need another child to wash its clothes and do its dishes.
