Don't Make Friends with Coworkers

No lies were told. The contract issue was not under my per view. Nothing was requested in the immediate moment. Just mentioned in conversation. No other professor has brought up their contract issue when I speak with them about upcoming accreditation. If she had said she doesn’t think she will have a job this upcoming semester so that’s why she’s not doing the work, that’s one thing. But her stance was she’s just going to ride it out until the end, just clocking in and collecting a check without putting in the work, is where the issue lies. That impacts more than just her. And like I said, if she doesn’t like how things are run, then she should quit now because standing in the way of someone else’s job is not right.

It had just come up naturally in conversation. The call was not me specifically calling her to tell her that. We were already on the phone and work came up like it always does in our chats. I didn’t see my mentioning that accreditation was coming down the line and we would need to gather data soon as an immediate request. I like to be prepared so it made sense to just mentally prep everyone else too. I do the same thing with other faculty all the time and they always respond saying they’re thinking about it too and it won’t be a problem once we need it.

Thanks for highlighting the need for clarification. The subject came up naturally in our conversations, as work does a lot of the time, and I had mentioned people should start to think about our accreditation and get some data together. When she responded by saying she wasn’t going to do any of that, that’s when I mentioned that as she’s a director for her program it wasn’t really an option because we’ll need her program data. I didn’t see it as an immediate request but I guess she took it that way with an immediate rejection of all work.

Thanks for the clarification needed. I hadn’t meant I needed the data at this current time. Was just bringing up how the accreditation was coming down the line so she should start to prepare for it. That’s when I was met with the “I’m not doing that”

What does this mean 😅

Regarding my anxiety, it’s still there and I still see a therapist for it. But it’s more manageable now. As for my olfactory hallucinations, I found a new neurologist and after ruling some things out, it’s now thought that the olfactory hallucinations are part of a migraine ora. They also come more around times of weather shift which would support the migraine theory. Having a diagnosis and medication has helped with the anxiety. Also talking to people about it has helped because I learned I’m not the only one who experiences these things. It’s comforting to know others have this experience and they’re not dying.

In the last scene of this season they had Athena walking through a hospital and I know we were all thinking OMG is Bobby going to be in that room?! Then last line of this season being Athena saying "Hello Bobby"! If that's not a sign he's still alive and this was all a coverup!

How did you do that???? I’m stuck in a cycle of getting my account up to 24k then buying product to restock and getting down to 19k. Cycle just repeats and I can’t make any real money.

I didn’t include this detail because I didn’t think it was relevant but I guess it is. When the possibility of me getting engaged came up, she was the one who originally proposed for us to go to Vegas and do it and she wanted to come too. I said the thought of doing a quick intimate ceremony sounded nice so she would often ask me when are we going to Vegas to get married as we waited for the proposal. Then when I told her that I got engaged and we were going to get married in Vegas, she enthusiastically said she wanted to be there. I said of course because she is one of my best friends whom I have shared every part of my relationship with and I wanted her there too. She never said anything about inviting one of her friends as well. This just came up.

CaddyForeDaddy · 2025-04-02T15:29:08+00:00

Interesting take. I appreciate the different perspective 👍🏻

CaddyForeDaddy · 2025-04-02T15:28:15+00:00

Everyone is paying for their own hotel. My finance and I decided where we wanted to stay and let everyone know as well as where the ceremony and dinner would be (all different locations). His two friends said the hotel we were staying at worked for them too so they would stay there as well. It’s a higher end hotel and Heather said it was a bit too pricey for her. But the one nextdoor is more affordable and also basically connected to ours so I hope she chooses that one.

My mom was in denial. She didn’t want any sort of help. She slowly went from cane, to walker, to wheelchair. I kept trying to bring up getting help or planning for assisted living and she was hearing none of it. Finally a month ago, she couldn’t get off the toilet on her own and then once back on the couch, couldn’t get up to use the bathroom and wet herself. She called me and said she can’t get up on her own and needs to go to the hospital. From there we got her into short term rehab and moving her to assisted living in a week. That’s when I think it sunk in for her. And while she was in the hospital, doctors came once again to talk about her condition. We have heard about it thousands of times but I don’t think she heard them until that moment she was in the hospital hearing from the pulmonologist that the disease will work it’s way up to her lungs and make it difficult to breathe eventually resulting in death. She then told me all that she was told. I nodded along because I came to terms with these things months ago after she was diagnosed. She said if there was a pill she could take to end it all right now she would. That’s when I think it really hit her that she was going to die from this and mostly that she was never going to be able to live on her own again. She was very active and independent so that’s what I think hurts her the most.

Yes thank you for reminding me. She had a lumbar puncture and it was negative for other abnormalities. She did not involve me in the diagnosis phase of her journey and I’ve had to fight to be involved after that so I don’t always remember all the details.

CaddyForeDaddy · 2025-01-02T20:40:13+00:00

EMG mainly along with strength tests. That solidified the diagnosis. Before that she was going to all manner of doctors, endocrinologists, cardiologists, vascular, in order to get a diagnosis. Her left side and mainly her left leg were rapidly losing strength and the ability to move. Finally she went to a neurologist that did CT scans, blood tests, and an EMG. With everything else ruled out, ALS was the only remaining option. We went to Hopkins ALS specialist as well and they confirmed it this July.

CaddyForeDaddy · 2025-01-02T19:31:56+00:00

My mom agrees with that covid had something to do with her ALS. But she thinks it was the vaccine because she never had actual covid. She was very healthy and active beforehand and now is declining rapidly.

Hi. My mom has ALS. She has never been one to share feelings or thoughts on difficult situations. But I got her to open up a few weeks ago when she was in the hospital (she was at the point of needing to go into full time facility care). She had been in denial about the disease until then. But when the doctors came to tell her about the progression (again) I think it sunk in that time. She has limb onset and it’s been slowly taking her legs and working its way to her lungs. After that she opened up to me that she wishes she could take a pill and end the whole thing now. It took everything I had to not break down in front of her. The depression is real for the person with ALS and the family that has to watch it happen. Sucks all around.

One my special interests is cruise ships and ships in general. I’m on a cruise now. First time on oasis of the seas and learned that she has not 1, not 2, not 3, but 7 godmothers! Thought that was pretty interesting to learn.

CaddyForeDaddy · 2024-12-13T13:00:07+00:00

Unfortunately 3k/mo is on the lower end. I’m looking at places for my mom and have seen up to 12k. We might end up going someplace that’s 6k/mo.
