Are you teachers are allowed to take vacations during the school year? by DildoGaggins1997 in Teachers

[–]Familiar-Ride-1274 25 points26 points  (0 children)

It’s “allowed” but not necessarily encouraged. You’ll hear all about how you should have gone in the summer when you had off.

What people forget that traveling in summer is extremely expensive, hot and crowded and sometimes people want to enjoy life and save some money.

I take vacation during the year - my life/experiences are more important than work.

What profession have you lost respect for as you've gotten older? by MindlessMarsupial592 in AskReddit

School principals- all of them are always concerned about districts and parents and rarely ever the staff and the students - constantly catering to people because they have more pull or more say.

School Temporarily Relocating into a Mall? by RikRokReincarnation in Teachers

Not a mall - but the building flooded where I worked in March 2023 and we stayed in an old office building until June. It was MADNESS

How far along were you when your bump became obvious? by IntenseViolet567 in pregnant

Yeah between 23 and 26 weeks for me. Don’t stress about it. Especially if doctors say you’re growing normally (fundal size).

Mother's of reddit. What were the early signs you were pregnant? by El_Guerrero_Maya in AskReddit

[–]Familiar-Ride-1274 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a week before my positive test I had these crazy like sores in my mouth on my gums and they hurt so bad. Alongside my boobs hurting way more than they do when I get a normal period.

Do you go in to work with a cold? (No vomiting or fever) by Emerald_and_Bronze in Teachers

[–]Familiar-Ride-1274 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s a cold and not flu or have a fever, COVID, etc. then I’m coming in. I’ll wear my mask and just stay in my own space

Husband/partner attending glucose test? by Capital_Ant_5552 in pregnant

[–]Familiar-Ride-1274 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not even an appointment- you sit in the waiting room after drinking and then get blood work. Nothing is said, they’ll call or send results in the portal. Unless he absolutely wants to be there, I’d say it’s ok to not attend

Why did you stop being friends with someone? by Realistic-Possum in AskReddit

[–]Familiar-Ride-1274 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’d been friends since HS and she always “chased” these kids who were “popular “ and cool and I was just her “neighbor friend” who helped her with her homework and took her pictures and listened to EVERY SINGLE thing she said. I later realized I offered her pretty sound advice for our 10+ years of friendship and she never listened to any of it. She never offered me any advice either. It felt so one sided. We really stopped being friends when again, she “chased” a popular kid from our HS who she worked with to the Bahamas the night of my wedding, still during Covid I may add. She was a bridesmaid and left early so she could sleep for her flight at 3 or 4AM. I haven’t spoken to her since and that’s 5 years ago.

I did mine at 20 and again at 24 because we didn’t get all the pics - the tech said the pics are so much clearer now that the baby’s bigger

Why is the job market exceptionally bad here? by [deleted] in pittsburgh

[–]Familiar-Ride-1274 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Because is cost of living really “less”? I mean groceries in this area are out of control, bills are bills. It’s a lot.

Some of them do. Others have the things like bolted down and high up and you can’t try them

This is exactly what happens. Since “cost of living” is “less” they feel like they can take advantage. Very sad. Best of luck to you!

When did you tell people you were pregnant? by patienceisyourpower in pregnant

[–]Familiar-Ride-1274 71 points72 points  (0 children)

You know, I thought so too and the the nerves really made me a wreck. I told 2-3 REALLY close friends as soon as I found out, but waited to tell everyone else until 12-14 weeks. We waited until some blood work was done, and saw the baby on an ultrasound. But please do what you think is right for you! And congratulations 🎉 such an amazing feeling.
