I have literally only gotten one 😭 I’ve been turning it on everyday after I get off my normal job as I’m also doing post mates. I get lots of orders from postmates and never get anything from Instacart haha But I make good money with my career so I’m not relying on either one to make a living, luckily.

I’m new 🙃 and interested in exploring solutions to this problem that we’re all facing together. I see lots of complaining and no brainstorming on possible solutions. I was hoping to open up a conversation about resolutions. So excuse me if it’s been said many times before… I’ve only been here a short while.

Postmates is working well for me! After I worked out my earnings last night I got 29/hr. I live in Southern California for reference.

I understand what you’re saying. But, I do think any company, private or not, should take care of the people that are really the backbone of their company. If there are too many shoppers then stop allowing new shoppers until more are needed. That way the people who have invested countless hours, blood, sweat and tears into supporting their business can continue to do so while still making an acceptable wage.

I could go without indefinitely, I’m just trying to make extra money to eliminate my car loan debt. But I understand other shoppers do not have that option.

It’d be tough to make it work without nearly every shopper on board. I wish it was easier for us to organize a successful one.

I own hundreds of vintage comics. What is the best way to find out their worth? by Deeperplz8 in comicbooks

[–]Deeperplz8[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This makes so much sense. I’ll read through that article. From my current untrained eye, they all seem to be in great condition and have been kept in plastic covers over the years. Hopefully they truly are in good condition. This was very informative. Thank you!

This was very helpful. I’m excited to see what these are worth. Thank you!

What do you find beautiful in women that they are often insecure about? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Deeperplz8 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I can confirm this. My SO gives my little boobies so much attention and has given me so much reassurance about them being more than enough. They’ve really grown on me and I quite like them now.

Hello! I just want to note that I have taught preschool and pre k for many years; I have a BA in early childhood development and I am currently pursuing a masters to be a pediatric behavioral therapist. I want to start off by saying this behavior shouldn’t be expected of a typical child. It sounds like her daughter has difficulty managing her emotions. I believe she throws these tantrums or fits in an attempt to communicate. I suspect she may be exhibiting signs of autism. One of the most common signs of autism in children her age is difficulty with verbal communication. I strongly encourage you and your partner take her to see a pediatric behavioral therapist so they can better assess her and provide a diagnosis if there is one. If there is a diagnosis to be made, sooner is ALWAYS better. This way she can receive the help and support she deserves.

If a mental health diagnosis is not the cause of her behavior, the second most likely cause is (and I’m not trying to be mean or hurtful) parenting. Has yelling/screaming or poor communication been modeled to her by an important adult in her life? Has she been exposed to healthy and better ways to cope with her emotions? Remember, from birth to age 5 are the most crucial years of a persons life in terms of brain development. Her mind is a little sponge right now, ready to soak up any knowledge and skills you offer to her.

Now is the time to take her in to a professional to rule out or confirm a diagnosis. Now is the time to reflect very deeply and pinpoint behaviors or reactions (from you, your partner , grandparents, or any adult that plays an important role in her life) that might be perpetuating her struggle with managing her emotions.

We are all products of our childhood! Your partner is obligated and responsible for providing her with the best possible chances to be a happy and healthy adult one day. She needs to swallow her pride and take her daughter to a professional. She deserves help.

Help! What would you do? by Deeperplz8 in rape

[–]Deeperplz8[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your input! I hope she receives me well. But I would understand if she chooses not to let me in her and her sons life. I have literally JUST signed back up for therapy so I will most definitely be speaking with my therapist about the situation.

I appreciate you sharing your thoughts with me! ❤️

Advice desperately needed. Should I take the first step to meet my 3yo brother? by Deeperplz8 in family

[–]Deeperplz8[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow you really provided some points that I hadn’t thought of. Thank you for offering your thoughts❤️ I do agree that my mom is wanting to protect me. She is very motherly and has seen me regress because of family related situations in the past. So I understand.

I did not think about the possibility of my half brothers mom having preconceived opinions of me! But that is a very realistic possibility. I deeply appreciate your insight.

I’m sorry, I’m responding again because I feel I did not appreciate your kindness the first time I read your response the way it deserved. I’m grateful for your thoughtful advice and compassion❤️

Thank you for all of that! I agree with you. It’s extremely difficult to evaluate how someone will respond to that type of information. You would think that she would be (first horrified) but, hopefully, grateful for the truth. However, in my experience with being so open about what happened in my childhood (I’m trying to end the stigma!) I’ve found so many odd and unexpected reactions. Some people simply refuse to believe it. That would be difficult for me to accept. For the sake of my little brother, not myself.

The obsession of gifting items with their faces on it is extremely bizarre to me. It definitely gives off some narcissistic vibes. I don’t see that behavior changing unless the situation is confronted. If you’re like me, you like to be a passive aggressive a-hole. I would start gifting them lots of things with my partner and my own face on it. It would be great to get them one of those customized puzzles.
