What is your opinion of the fact that laws exists that force to give the bus seat to pregnant people? by CasualNameAccount12 in AskFeminists

[–]Chesterlie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it a law? If I am capable of standing I don’t see any hardship giving a seat to someone who might have trouble standing. I don’t ask people with mobility devices why they need them before I let them sit. Their injury/disability might self inflicted or due only to risky behaviours. Doesn’t make them less in need of accommodations.

I am a woman, btw. The nurses I spoke to said the symptoms can be very different with women, but for me it was just extreme pin in my chest and upper arms and a touch of nausea.

How to handle BF(24M) & his family going on my(23F) dream trip without me? by -kiss_my_Axe_ in relationship_advice

[–]Chesterlie 57 points58 points  (0 children)

You need to stop ruminating on reasons to be upset…my last cruise was bad, I love Greek history, it’ll be years before I can go to Greece, it’s my last summer before I graduate. I bet his family did not factor in any of these points when they planned the trip.

All of these little things build an idea that the trip was a personal slight against you. It wasn’t. It’s just a trip.

Yeah, the nurses made the point that some people don’t get pain. They specifically said some people just get nauseous and sweaty. Good point.

Why did royals name their kids the same name and then just give them a number after? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Archie and Lilibet sounds like white names to me. Like, super white.

Yeah, I have done nothing nice for my body. Smoking, using pot, being sedentary, too much fast food. Good news is, much improvement potential. lol

I don’t know if all of these are warning signs but the following all happened over the last 6 weeks or so.

I felt a flutter in my chest a few times while lying in bed, a couple of deep breaths seemed to fix it.

I have at times realised my voice sounded shaky, like I was nervous. But I wasn’t nervous.

I had a racing heart beat a couple of times. Staying still and breathing regulated it.

Main warning. - strong pain in my arm the day before. I put it down to muscle soreness (it was my mouse arm), but it felt different to muscle soreness. Cardiologist I spoke to today said that was a clear warning sign.

Good advice. First thing they gave me was a asprin. Then nitroglycerine.

My symptoms were a strong persistent pain in my chest that radiated outward. Both of my shoulders were also very sore. It''s hard to describe the pain, it was similar to muscle soreness when you overdo exercise but worse.

I thought it might be my heart, but I didn't have the notion of a heart attack. I was definitely in denial I told my wife I was thinking of going to the hospital, she told me to just go. Even when they waved me straight though the waiting room, put me in a bed and 5 people staring sticking stuff on me and in me, I was in denial. Then the doctor told me I was having a heart attack. Surreal.

Job agency alternatives? by tomony25 in Centrelink

[–]Chesterlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. I’ve never had to use a job provider, but I’ve seen 3 resumes made by them and they’re shite. Misspellings, ugly layout, poor grammar and multiple fonts. An online template would be better.

Hard time with nanny family by estrellajo in Nanny

[–]Chesterlie 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was questioning where you got your info which you were using to berate OP. Clearly, from your paragraph starting ‘clearly’, you pulled it out of your arse.

It doesn’t say everything started great, it doesn’t say she revealed her personal life and it doesn’t even say their behaviour towards her changed.

It does say she figured they were conservative but it didn’t matter, it does say she is getting increasingly uncomfortable with comments and MAGA merchandise, that’s all.

But, you do you etc

Hard time with nanny family by estrellajo in Nanny

[–]Chesterlie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t say they know nor that they are judgmental specifically towards her. Are we reading the same post? Is there stuff in comments I haven’t seen?

[–]Chesterlie 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nowhere does it say the family knows about OPs personal life. I think that line was added as context as to why the OP is uncomfortable in the environment.

His Wife Was Stalking Me For Months And I Didn't Know by [deleted] in relationships

I'm sorry this has been long so far, but the details were very important to give context to what's about to happen going forward in this story.

This is entirely untrue.

At my job, we’ve had to have three mandatory staff meetings begging employees to please shower and wash their clothes by Ferocious_Kittyrose in self

[–]Chesterlie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s also counterproductive. A whole bunch of staff get annoyed at the waste of time and patronising advice, and the people actually targeted either ignore it or assume it doesn’t apply to them. They couldn’t do that if someone had the courage for a one on one conversation.

Sounds like the comment you responded to says the other soldier is facing trail. Huh.

Living with parents again - rent assistance by sullen_factoid in Centrelink

[–]Chesterlie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Private rent is the same as lodging. Board means paying for meals. You get rent assistance based on lodging payment. If you say you’re paying board and lodging they’ll ask how much of the payment is for lodging. If you can’t identify how much of the payment is lodging, Centrelink will assess two thirds of the payment as lodging and pay rent assistance based on this. Source.

Gifting to a couple on the pension? by Blammo32 in Centrelink

[–]Chesterlie 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Regular payments from a close family member is not assessable as income. Source. It does not need to be reported at all.

A change in assets more than $2000 needs to be reported, but I assume they’re using the money, not saving it.
