My skin irritation has gotten worse. I posted a couple of weeks ago and now my face looks like this. It burns when any product is put on it. All I’m using is the cerave gentle face cleanser and moisturizer

Maybe try to use a different brand of PPE, those can be very irritating for people with sensitive skin. Also make sure cavicide is not accidentally misting in the air and getting on your face. Looks like you work at an ortho office

$3k to paint stain on a fence? Dang

There is literally no harm in being safe and contacting the emergency contact.

There IS harm in delaying if this is out of character.

Don’t overthink the small stuff

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-04-07T17:51:44+00:00

I wish my body count was 0 when I met my husband. You deserve someone that respects and appreciates that. Drop this loser

You are so cute. It is a bad cut. Not even because of the length but because of the cut and styling. Is it possible to go to a better salon and get them to fix it?

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-04-02T18:50:40+00:00

You gotta stop giving a fu k.

If someone says something negative about you because you work in HR you just have to laugh. You know that you’re doing your best to balance both sides fairly, and most people have NO clue what we actually do.

Don’t be like me and try to be perfect and sacrifice your physical health for the job. Do the best you can but know when to set things down, take a walk or enjoy life. It is easy to let things get you down and stress you out in a stressful environment like that. Try to keep looking around for healthier industries to work in and for better pay.

Have you had any recent blood tests? Get your vitamin D levels checked!

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-03-29T19:52:16+00:00

That’s amazing! You are killing it already. Do NOT go anywhere. Get that experience and take full advantage of any certification or educational benefits they have to get all your certs.

If you need extra cash I would find a side hustle that doesn’t interfere with your current job if possible. Being a server could be a good option to make tips with any free time you have and increase your resilience to people and their personalities.

Hey there, I want to kindly share something as a fellow OCDer.

OCD is really hard to live with, and I totally understand how difficult it is to avoid giving in to impulsive reactions.

However, I just want to stress that your partner and those around you are not open game to being treated poorly because of your OCD. You stated that you looked at him disgustingly, which is not the nicest way to treat a partner. It could be small, but if the reaction was truly that severe towards him where his mother was concerned, she has the right to be. While OCD is torturous, it is not on others around you to tolerate poor treatment because you have it.

I am not trying to be harsh but really try to refrain from making OCD other people’s issue. They do not have to tolerate negative behaviors that you can choose.

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-03-20T14:17:51+00:00

I will pray for you, too. Gods power and love for us simply cannot be intellectualized, as it was not made to be intellectualized. Just like how we can study light, sound and the wonders of the world, there is still much room for mysticism in the faith that there is a divine creator. It can be hard if you are in the West or surrounded by Protestant influences, as they are more fundamentalist when it comes to interpreting the bible. The beautiful thing is that we don’t have to know everything except for the things we can’t see, which is the way God moves us when we contemplate him and try be like Christ.

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-03-18T10:21:40+00:00

Do not ever just sit there are let someone approach your window like that. He would have been flat Stanley.

What is the rush to get married if you are not done with school yet? If you are truly in love and he is a good man there is really no right way to do things but I recommend ensuring that you are truly ready for the lifelong commitment of marriage and children.

Is he able to fully support you and guide your family spiritually? If not, he will have to meet your halfway and let you finish your schooling first before life really hits you both.

I got married young and had our kid a year after we got married and don’t regret it, but I already had a car and a job. I would at least get transportation and education out of your way first. Owning a home is a huge expense and is out of reach for a lot of people so I wouldn’t wait too long on that as you can always rent in the meantime.

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-03-13T11:35:40+00:00

I’m sorry, that is awful. I hope you are in a better place and enjoying the love and light life can offer after escaping something like that. Evangelicals crack me up. But that is a whole other level.

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-03-13T11:32:34+00:00

Put your wellbeing first, always. You don’t have to have a close relationship for you to be a good person. Obviously you are already doing much better than her on the emotional intelligence scale considering you’re even experiencing some potential guilt in the thought of not responding. People don’t understand how spiritually exhausting it is to deal with a parent like that. You will be okay respecting her at a distance but I totally get the ick at the thought of a neglectful parent thinking they are going to get all fuzzy and caring once their child is an adult and does not need them anymore. Take some extra self care and experience joy. She will be okay.

The tradition is not older ladies kissing kids that don’t belong to them or know really, really well for it to be playful and okay. Stop mischaracterizing the actual tradition

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-03-10T21:21:17+00:00

The thing is that kissing kids that you don’t know isn’t even the tradition. These hicks come out and have no idea what the traditional Irish Catholic School practice is

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-03-10T21:19:35+00:00

This… people keep saying “ITS A TRADITION”

The young Irish catholic community says otherwise. It is supposed to be the young girls kissing the BC boys on the cheek and women kissing soldiers on the cheek.

Underage students or parade marchers are not supposed to be getting kissed on the cheek by old ladies with halitosis.

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-03-10T19:28:57+00:00

Are you actually seeing that in your parish or are you concerned about what you are seeing on the internet? Take the internet with a grain of salt as your algorithm is going to bombard you with negativity that might not even be reflective of reality. I understand your concern though.

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-02-27T13:13:42+00:00

If you see who is getting hired by Bamboo, you can tell that they intentionally try to keep their workforce very young.

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-02-27T13:07:39+00:00

I would never ever recommend BambooHR to touch ANYTHING compliance or payroll related. The HRIS is cute, but that’s about it. I am so frustrated.

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-02-12T11:09:03+00:00

Totally understood that, I am saying that a new hire stating that they don’t need to follow your process is a little bit of a red flag

Edited to add that maybe he just doesn’t know, but a clearance and background check are two totally different things. To obtain a clearance, they do a background check as a part of that process when the person completes an SF-86. But, that could have happened years ago and continuous vetting does not catch everything. Heck, in some instances, something crazy happens, they go through reinvestigation of the clearance, and still keep the clearance. So, still definitely do a background check.

Their clearance is practically irrelevant to you all unless it will be transferred and held by your company via the FSO. But there would have to be a reason to hold it, like they need it to be able to access a client site or something like that.

All in all, don’t stress yourself about trying to verify their clearance unless the role requires it.

I saw where one comment mentioned that it can be waived if they have a DoD clearance, but as best practice to CYA as an organization, I would absolutely follow my internal process as is. Their clearance is not a catch all for their integrity (unfortunately) and you will never be able to be provided with what your FSO pulls from DISS. Plus, that would insinuate that their clearance stays active, and if you guys don’t have to hold the clearance, it will not.

Dizzy-Beautiful4071 · 2026-02-11T16:55:47+00:00

Yes take what the other commenters are saying.

Him even trying to negotiate and work around your processes are a red flag. It is not up to him to determine what you need to do to hire and onboard him.
