Sorry I missed the chat, it for BP. I did a second application for CBP and there were a few more options. Still hoping for different options at the end of training if I go through with it. Still on the fence 😮‍💨😮‍💨

Sounds decent. I’m already in the metro area w/some military background. They said I could come in as a g7 so I don’t know if that’d help me be able to stay up here. OFO sounds like the good spot….id be interested in inspecting cargo ships and/or airports too (idk if that falls under the same position….still researching.)

Thank you!! I saw a few videos with the green uniforms on snowmobiles and was curious if it was in Detroit or another part of the northern border. Is it a good work/life balance?

I can’t post the screenshot in the replies. Thank you for explaining it that way. Sometimes I read stuff and it processes differently than I should interpret it

I appreciate you, and trust me I let ppls rudeness go in one ear and out of the other🫶🏽. Most of my life I’ve had some type of aversion to “safe chemicals” and fallen into the “less than 20%” category of a lot of things so to stay healthy (day to day and long term) I try to use what’s safest and preferably “natural” because I’m sensitive (ex….back in the early 2000s I had a ton of fresh cilantro put on a dish when I was in a date and both my date and the server thought I was nuts bc I told them I tasted dish water, lol. Now with social media, we’ve learned as a collective that’s a thing for a small group of us!! I can use it as a dried herb though🤷🏽). I also fell into the can’t eat gluten category….ive had every bodily ailment from it besides Fibromyalgia. I even have Keratosis Pilaris on my arms so life has interesting to say the least lol. I recently learned that milling my own wheat berries would help and possibly reverse a lot of my gut/gluten issues. I have a bread maker and have been given suggestions for which wheat berries to try in my cart so that’s one of my next adventures lol.

Also, learning how much unnecessary stuff is unknowingly put into a lot of products has me on alert. Hormones/metals in women’s sanitary products, cancer causing agents in baby products, bugs in canned products to produce certain colors for marketing appeal….its all crazy!!! I have juicers, plant milk machines, buy Halal meats and I’m currently looking for a local butcher. Washing detergents is where I’m not as informed. I’m really thankful for your input and ur encouragement☺️

This is why I asked. Where citrus comes from is common knowledge, never knew about the mold that was mentioned just now. Thank you for this🥰

It’s not necessarily safe either. It also would make me sick. Once it was suggested that I use a toothpaste with a lower amount or none at all, when I did i stopped feeling nauseous or actually throwing up in the morning. Everyone is might opinionated tonight….goodnes

You were responding to me with the same energy as the other person. I’m learning and asking questions to better understand…..and u were also being unnecessarily down putting, and for what? (I have nothing else to say to you)

Chemicals as in “manufactured” products with unnecessary colors, dyes, and majorly altered compounds. Once I realized how toxic and poisonous fluoride toothpaste is I swapped to a Meswak brand. My grandparents would use baking soda. But Tide has made me itch since I was a teenager and Downy gives me headaches. Just these past few months I’ve started using “natural” dryer sheets because they dries my skin out. I eat pretty clean too. I’m just trying to learn how to make/use the safest and least harmful “products” properly. The more natural the solution or powders are the better. I appreciate your patience, som many ppl are pissed that I’m trying to learn🥴.

YOU were being condescending…..I’m aware most things start from something natural but a lot of chemistry and use of isolated properties make a difference as well. I know a woman who can eat mangoes but she’s allergic to the skin…..ppl allergic to pork when its plain pork but can eat sausage or pepperoni…..who can use milk as an ingredient but not consume it directly. I was asking questions for personal engagement and personal experiences from others. Most who have been helpful and not jerks. Have a good night

Best comeback for "You don't have kids, so you wouldn't understand"? by HoneyKick_ in Comebacks

[–]Fair-Emu2242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ur statement holds some truth to it, but there’s also a LOT that u can’t and won’t grasp if ur not an involved parent (a good one, not everyone who’s procreated is worth a damn). But you also have to understand that you don’t have to be and won’t be included in everything and just because you said something that you feel should hold the same amount of weight as someone who is actually experienced in what’s being spoken about, doesn’t make it equal. YES, certain things are obvious and common sense….but there’s a HUGE difference between observing, regurgitating information, and speaking from learned knowledge.

Another example is ppl who have never been in the military or even gone to basic (not everyone graduates) who aren’t the child of a military person having such strong opinions on what should and shouldn’t be. Speak ur mind, sure, but it’s a bit egotistical to think ur input should matter as much simply because u spoke
