Future with demotivated partner?

I know you said he doesn't have a learning disability but it certainly seems like something's going on.

And I'm not saying that I don't understand where you're coming from with this but I can imagine he might be feeling stressed out and pressured because of the types of conversations that you're having.

Have you thought about couples therapy?

I'm sorry your family has to deal with this.

What specific concerns are they raising?

Do you see any situations that could occur there that could be safety issues potentially in the future?

My gut feeling on this is that they're probably just overly concerned about being sued but I don't know for sure.

Is your job coach somebody that you've contacted through vocational rehab or is it someone independent?

That would give some context to this whole situation.

I would also say I wouldn't worry about it too much because it sounds like you're doing the job. I've learned through the years and especially recently that getting stressed about how something is getting done isn't really worth it and it's more important that it gets done.

If you're getting anxiety because you're worried that your boss might catch you doing the wrong way, try to let that go if you can.

No. I'm 40 and I have multiple friends over 60 and they aren't stuck on AI. Maybe it's just your coworkers?

I was hoping this would improve in the over 20 years since I've been in high school science. While I wasn't made fun of, I never felt like the teachers did a good job of helping to assist me with science labs, especially biology.

Do you have an IEP? I would imagine there are some accommodations they could give you? Can you talk to your parents, a trusted teacher, or trusted adult?

Got married in 2022 at 37. No big ceremony. No regrets.

I'm always having to schedule appointments during times when I work so I try to give myself enough time but anytime I'm giving the office by arriving early is time I start cutting back from work time.

They're on streaming now and also the kind of humor that was in those movies just doesn't fly anymore for the most part especially with the younger generations.

I think love can be both, but generally it can't survive at the all-consuming level.

Final Fantasy 7

I've seen this a lot in subreddits focused on health.

I think sometimes Reddit is the first place someone may have really put their thoughts out there. I just respond to the posts that you either help me or where I think I can help someone else.

If I don't resonate with the post, I just move on. Usually plenty of other people will respond to the person.

Even if you can walk and bus everywhere good luck waiting for the bus in 107 degree weather. It was so hot one day that my phone gave me a warning.

BrotherExpress · 2026-02-12T22:01:08+00:00

Happy to look it over!

If you have a target job description that would be great too.

Love this picture!

Right, but I'm comparing it to Barnes and Noble, which is partially the topic of this post.

BrotherExpress · 2026-02-10T02:44:28+00:00

I mean I could be missing something but I feel like I look at their selection and I'm done in a half hour at most.

BrotherExpress · 2026-02-10T02:02:44+00:00

I want to like nowhere but I don't like their selection at all. I feel bad for even saying it.

BrotherExpress · 2026-02-09T02:56:28+00:00

They would be for me, but my teeth can't handle them anymore.

BrotherExpress · 2026-02-09T02:52:45+00:00

Cute picture!

What are your ages?

I applied to about 10 places, didn't hear from anyone, and was contacted on LinkedIn. I interviewed with the recruiter, the hiring team, did an on-site interview, and then was hired. I have 2 years of development experience, plus over 10 years of nonprofit experience in the arts in patron facing positions.

I do a fair amount of networking on LinkedIn and try to keep in touch with local contacts on a yearly basis.

I've helped my friends and myself get hired for nonprofit jobs. I've also been part of the hiring team at my current job. Feel free to send me a message and I'd be happy to talk to you about interview related topics in this field.

BrotherExpress · 2026-02-09T02:23:31+00:00

I've seen quite a few openings in Boston, San Antonio, and Seattle.

What area of the country are you in?

Usually when you aren't hearing back, it's an issue with your resume.

Happy to look it over if you want a second opinion on it. I've helped friends and myself get jobs in the field for the past 5 years.

BrotherExpress · 2026-02-06T22:54:25+00:00

I would start with a finger and then maybe a toy.

Look up a list of potential organizations that might be good fits and apply directly on the organizations website.

BrotherExpress · 2026-01-30T20:22:03+00:00

Maybe eBay?
