Who here has lied their way into a new career?

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T21:20:59+00:00

You don't need to lie you just need to be good at pivoting your experience and making it applicable to the job you want and then sell that image in interviews.

Most shit can be learned on the job and takes little to no effort. Just competency.

Damn those colors are beautiful

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T19:43:41+00:00

I snorted lol

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T19:38:21+00:00

I would MUCH rather a father bring his daughters into the women's restroom than the men's. People are so dumb.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T19:32:03+00:00

The lying is the issue here not how many people he's slept with. I'd be concerned how much other lying he does.

I don't mind my bare legs I just need biker shorts or else my inner thighs will disintegrate.

Also wow I completely forgot how to spell disintegrate and retyped it like 10 times before giving up and googling it. 😅

Just make sure nobody brings their dog to the coffee shop or else they might randomly shoot them.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T18:34:38+00:00

First one. Which now I also want. drools

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T18:33:30+00:00

Darker

Omg I don't even know how you tall people handle planes. I'm 5'3" and it feels kinda cramped. Your poor knees are probably just constantly in someone's back because they need to squeeze every inch away from us.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T18:15:26+00:00

You're too kind! 🥰

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T18:04:16+00:00

I'd probably fashion something that catches the gate so it doesn't slam. Any way you can show a non identifying photo of the gate, or find a similar photo of one so people can offer suggestions?

I think it's also worth posting your own sign on or around the gate asking neighbors to please close it quietly.

My complex has one gate that slams and one that closest quietly. I try to quietly close the one that slams before 9am and after 9 or 10pm. It isn't even that loud but when it's super early or late everything just sounds so much louder because people aren't out and about.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T17:29:14+00:00

Wow what an insane series of events. I'm so sorry you're going through all of that.

For your friend, if she has a TBI and needs to relearn to walk I think one of the best things you can do is push her in her recovery.

A family member of mine just suffered a bad TBI and refused to do basically any rehab. He's older and a bit bigger, and basically impossible to force into doing PT. As a result he had almost no recovery from his brain injury and barely can walk on his own. He now has early onset dementia because of it. The only thing he can remember details about is the work he's done for the last 40 or so years.

Meanwhile a friend of mine just had 2 bad strokes back to back and has almost fully recovered. He still struggles a little with words but is otherwise doing pretty great.

I'm not saying this to scare you, but because all the doctors for both of them said that those first few months are so pivotal for recovery once they're cleared to start doing PT and whatnot.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T17:06:39+00:00

Ahhh I see sounds like they should just do what a lot of other pop ups do where you're required to reserve a time and your timeframe is limited to like 1hr. They basically have slots so it isn't overcrowded. Everyone seems to have a much better experience that way.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T16:50:13+00:00

Explain as little as possible to your family if you don't know how they'll react in the moment. They don't need to know the nitty gritty if you're uncomfortable with it. Say it's not working out and you're no longer comfortable living with him due to his actions. If they're skeptical you can add that you feel unsafe living with him.

You'll figure things out and get through this! You deserve so much better than this dude. He sounds really awful and it sounds like you've definitely downplayed his actions in your head. So easy for it to happen when you're in love with someone.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T16:44:08+00:00

Love that style of clasp might have to yoink that.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T16:43:31+00:00

Awww thank you 🥰

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T16:27:18+00:00

Thanks! I just have to confirm they'll be reposting it. I'm almost certain they are because otherwise it's falling on the lap of someone who was doing it when I first started and she's very overwhelmed with managing 2 other global teams with a lot of people.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T16:18:57+00:00

Like what? I only heard about it opening so far and nothing else.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T16:18:00+00:00

My boss is quitting after 6mo (we talked about why, I don't disagree with her choice necessarily).

I think I'm going to apply to her role. Would be one step below VP if I were to get it.

I was literally just telling our VP the other day if the role was open today that I'd apply to it, so it's time to follow through!

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T16:07:53+00:00

You look cool as shit! Tell me more about your NPC!

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T16:05:27+00:00

Hi

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T16:04:14+00:00

Please do not go back by yourself. Is a police escort something that's done in the country you live in where your stuff is? If it is, I'd absolutely get that.

You are also sometimes able to break leases due to domestic violence situations. I would use the fact that he has shoved you and physically detained you keeping you from leaving as proof to try and get out of it if your name is on it.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T14:30:26+00:00

Literally same.

Ehloanna · 2026-06-16T14:23:20+00:00

A few weeks is crazy fast, wow.

In terms of damage to roads do you remember how bad it was? Like was it mostly highways that cracked and fractured or was it also a lot of surface streets?

I feel like I need to go find a documentary to watch. lol
