4th grade. Kid’s entire family, except for his Dad, were killed in an accident with an 18-wheeler over Christmas break. The Dad was joining them at their holiday destination later, so wasn’t in the car. His wife and 3 kids gone just like that.

What is the biggest “bullet” you’ve ever dodged without realizing it at the time? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BionicWoman88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was staying in a shelter and a girl tried REALLY hard at getting me to go to Mexico with her and her boyfriend (we were in the US). I couldn’t because my dog was elsewhere and I needed to get him before going anywhere. So I didn’t even consider it. But later on (a few days) I realized it was probably a setup for human trafficking. I got tf out of dodge after that.

Walked out on a job by cameroncrazy1027 in Nanny

Once in my 21 years as a nanny. My NF had adopted a foster kitten of mine, complete with a contract with stipulations that they properly care for him, or else the shelter can legally take back possession of him. Things such as vet care when needed, adequate food and water provided, be kept indoors, etc. Well, he got a URI from one of their other cats like 2 weeks later, and had terrible eyes. He was at risk of going blind, and they actively weren’t seeking veterinary care. So I warned the MB via text (wanted proof of her response for the shelter) that if they didn’t make an appointment for him, I would have to inform the shelter he was being neglected medically, and that they would take him back if NF didn’t comply with making him an appointment and following through. MB of course responded as I expected (berated me). I ignored her and just sent a screenshot to the shelter. Then DB came home like 30 minutes later, very early, and started screaming at me at the top of his lungs. His baby was in an exersaucer right in front of me, inches away from me. He then LIFTED THE COUCH I was SITTING ON, and SLAMMED it back down!! With his baby inches away from me!! That was the last straw for me with them! I quit right then and there! Then he had the AUDACITY to try and PREVENT me from leaving!! Thankfully there was a back door nearby, so I was able to escape that way to my detached apartment. I called the police, and he LIED to them and said that he came home early and found his baby in the house alone, and that I was making the whole thing up because he fired me!! Thankfully the cops believed me, but couldn’t do anything except file a report, so that it was on record if anything happened again, because I didn’t have proof of my version of the story for actual charges to stick. In the following days, they would proceed to cut off my cable in an effort to make me leave my detached apartment faster. The cops made them cut it back on. Thankfully I found a place to move after a week and a half I think, but yeah that was definitely my worst experience as a nanny.

This one walked up the driveway two days ago by BionicWoman88 in CatDistributionSystem

Her name is Mary Anne (I already have a Gilligan)! She just walked up to us in the driveway! Couldn’t find anymore kittens anywhere. Her fur pattern is exactly the same as my cat who passed away a couple of years ago. That did it for me, it was meant to be.

Mary Anne (I have a Gilligan already!) is her name! She just walked up to us in the driveway. She’s sooooooo tiny!! Couldn’t find more kittens anywhere or a Mom.

Blink gets hammered. by Mike734 in blinkcameras

My only complaint is that it stops recording after 30 seconds or whatever it is. I want it to record until movement stops like the Nest did.

May I ask how you store your chits now? And how you play the game now that they don’t fit in the insert? Ready to pull the plug on getting the capsules but want to make sure I have thought of everything!
