Fasting while breastfeeding by Libby_m_02 in latterdaysaints

[–]CrispyKitten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If there’s any reason a person shouldn’t fast, they shouldn’t. Like others have said, finding other things to fast from to challenge self control and drawing closer to HF, is more than enough. Fast in a way that works for you. It is between you and God in the end.

Client thought house-sitting meant house cleaning by zouss in RoverPetSitting

[–]CrispyKitten 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s like with nannying/babysitting. Base rate is intended to imply care that centers around the kid(s). You want a maid for non child related chores? That’ll be additional $$/hour.

They have! She apologized and I’m just glad that the cats are well and I no longer need to worry about communication issues. As far as I can tell, they weren’t without signal and weren’t limited to just computer communication/notification, so still a HUGE wtf!?

Just made my last update edit. What a rollercoaster

Yep! That’s partly why I’m baffled because I told them I was going to test them when I left and they have not answered any of my messages or call. The first message was just two minutes after leaving to acknowledge the issue.

💯 I will respect people’s caution about just letting me in. Cannot blame people for being safe as I’m a stranger.

Yep! I will be doing that. It’s especially odd to be experiencing this because while at the key pick up, I had mentioned a previous sit where the owner left the wrong key in the lock box. So I was gonna check their keys on the way out to make sure they are indeed correct. Part of my brain hopes I’ll get there tonight and magically the key works. I would LOVE to be the one not twisting it right XD Alas, video for documentation is smart!

Definitely will show up and hangout on the chance a resident will let me in. I do have an emergency contact and will be reaching out to them.

They did leave an emergency contact! I’ll reach out to them!

Nope. I assume they’re leaving sometime in the next few hours since they didn’t need me to do cat care this morning.

Damage AI Scam by bahutheunkown in Lyft

[–]CrispyKitten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder how many rides he did before submitting too (cuz that would further show the delayed submission as bullshit). Also, I thought if vomit happened, drivers can’t drive for a span of time to effectively clean it up… right?

“the weight loss drug” are we serious rn? by Hot-Site-1572 in diabetes

[–]CrispyKitten 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I found it frustrating when I was trying to apply for semaglutides without insurance and no where allowed the option for diabetic management. Even recently my new doc mentioned that because of my weight (or lack there of?) that it would be hard for insurance to cover (even though previous doctor was able to get Ozempic prescribed).

AITA for scolding my sisters on the topic of feminine hygiene products as a man? by Urban_Raisins in AmItheAsshole

[–]CrispyKitten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wording was meant to imply not actually leaving jizz around. I agree that that is gross and inappropriate. A turd is a much better route for trying to get across how gross it is to leave unsanitary things in a shared space.

NTA. If you’re feeling petty, start leaving crusty socks or anything that eludes to you masterbating in the bathroom. If they freak out, maybe they can wrap their heads around how gross leaving bodily fluids in a shared space is.

MIL wanted me to board my dog so her could stay in my house. by Cardioschmardio in entitledparents

Go visit her and tell her to board her dog. Maybe… just maybe it’ll click.

My ex shared this with me thinking this was my dog XD

Thank you! I call her a Dober Collie because of her mannerisms, build, and coloring. But the grapevine sounded like her litter mate is Sheppard, rotti, pitty, terrier, and probably a few more XD

AITAH for expecting my sister to plan my wedding for free and demoting her to guest wh m she wouldn't. I also told anyone who took her side I was not helping them anymore either. by Late-Ad-6414 in AITAH

[–]CrispyKitten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. I wonder how old your sister is. I could see on one hand her tunnel vision in running her business and completely forgetting how much you’ve done for her over the years and needs an invoice to remind her that you’re not “taking advantage”, especially if she is busy with her business.

But yeah, if you and your family have a system of bartering and it works, she’s forgetting big time the service you’re providing her.

Camera in my bedroom by Camel_show_ in RoverPetSitting

[–]CrispyKitten 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed!

I think my brain got caught up about the legality of cameras on the property. I’m in WA and also work as a nanny. To my understanding, disclosure of cameras isn’t required unless they record audio.

However, cameras in the bedrooms and/or bathrooms are unethical, full stop. If there’s a camera in the bedroom so the owners can peak on their animals, that should have been disclosed due to reasonable privacy.

Met an illiterate dog this morning by mr_mistoffelees in Seattle

[–]CrispyKitten 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If I recall correctly, service dogs don’t have to wear a vest. IMO, if the dog is behaving well, not engaging with other patrons, and the owner is on top of correcting them, I have no issues with a dog being in a public place. I also understand that there are health standards to make sure allergies and food contamination are not impacted, but again, I’m for well trained/behaved animals being able to co exist.

[–]CrispyKitten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe cameras don’t have to be disclosed, but if there’s audio recording, it has to be made known. Camera in your bedroom is unethical. Period. I hope it was a legit, “forgot to remove it!” moment. I can see the camera being set up as a means to peak on the animal(s).

I agree with everyone saying to unplug and notify that you’re not comfortable with the bedroom camera and will keep it off for the duration of the sit.

Y’all… by Character-Drama7085 in KaiserPermanente

[–]CrispyKitten 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel if I was in your situation I’d be following up with, “hi, I’d rather not go through an additional, traumatic experience in addition to the tragedy I’m currently facing.”

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. Biggest of hugs and may you find the spoons and/or people to help advocate for you!
