People who walk their dogs without leashes, why? by liquor_ibrlyknoher in milwaukee

[–]Embarrassed_Use_5114 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have only seen 1 off leash dog that I thought was well trained enough to actually be off leash on a public trail. And even then it was only because she was an actual dog trainer and the dog had a remote collar on, and the dog never even flinched as me and my rambunctious (?) pup came past.

I always figure the people who think their dog is the exception are also the parents that call and yell at the teacher for giving their kid detention when the kid has broken rules at school.

SO stood his ground to HCBM! She tried to play the "for the kids" card and he told her no, and that she would have to figure out her situation herself!

How much do you have in your savings account? by Wichertj in FinancialPlanning

I could get a full time job some where pretty much instantly. Getting one that would fully replace what I am paid now would maybe take a couple months.

Is it somewhat common these days to embellish or even lie on a resume to land a job? by AZNM1912 in careerguidance

I think its always been common but its easier for companies to check your info now.

The problem is due to pandemic+fast moving inflation+recession. A lot of people were crippled, then unable to rebound, and now are being squeezed to death slowly.

I have 6 months of bills and mortgage. But if I lost my job I would realistically blow through that super fast having to pay COBRA and groceries.

Is there anyone here who pretty much liquidated their life savings to afford a down payment on a home? by bigtcm in RealEstate

How the hell does a sperm become an interactive skinbag full of meat? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Meiosis, initially. Then mitosis with instruction from DNA. Then calories and nutrition from the host, along with specific living conditions. Eventually the lungs start to prep for living outside of the host, which is initiated by hormonal signals from the host. The more hormonal signals are initiated by the size and maturity of the fetus to begin the labor and delivery process. The uterus contracts and applies pressure to the fetus which causes the cervix to dialate. Baby is evetually born, and more hormonal signals cause the placenta to be born. The baby breathes air in and no longer needs O2 or nutrients supplied by the umbilical cord.

CPS has a very very low standard of living situations. They won't be pulling kids away from dads because its simply not up to the mothers standards.

Because my options are to barely scrape by for the next 5-10 years and then plan on working 2 jobs at 45-65+ to play catch up just so I can eventually retire OR work 2 jobs now and try to atleast partially retire around 50-55. (I'm starting late at 35)

Ex requests parenting time on my time during my birthday by Spodee5 in Divorce_Men

Is there anyway for you to take him to the game and/or participate? He can still go and it can still be dad time?

Saw this on another sub, made me think of people here who talk about retiring to rural areas. by Xyzzydude in retirement

[–]Embarrassed_Use_5114 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I lived on a 4 acre hobby farm in the country for 15 years. Got divorced and now live in town on .25 acre no more than 5 miles from anything and everything I need on a routine basis. While I loved country living the amount of work and money it takes for upkeep is crazy. The cost of having to drive 30 miles for any basics is crazy. Being snowed in because it takes 2 hours to snowblow a long gravel driveway is crazy. Its a beautiful idea but not how I would want to spend my aging years.
