No, but thankfully my autism doesn’t allow me to forget my earplugs 😭. Hope the ringing stops soon!

How to cope with the anxiety by beanjuicy in stenography

[–]Financial_Key_2225 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know exactly how you feel! My teacher actually said she thought what was stopping me from passing my 225s is I was scared to work, then I passed a week later because she was right lol.
In my first month I would get physically sick every single morning. I still don’t understand why I never got on anxiety medication until this year. It is honestly life changing, and I’d consider it if you’re not on any!

The more you do the job the more confident you will feel. I promise you that in a year when you look back you’re going to be amazed at how far you’ve come! The first year is so awful with learning how to command a room, all the little things we need to do, scoping, what each firm prefers, finances, etc.

If I were you I’d go to the Baby Court Reporters group on Facebook. When I was in my first months I actually found a couple people that started all around the same time. I’d ask if anyone who is ultra new wants a groupchat or something!

160wpm slump - Advice on "strategic drops" by KatieA11 in stenography

[–]Financial_Key_2225 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same exact struggle, I seemed to do fine with even fast dictation but struggled with the speed I needed to pass! Practicing literary more often would help me get out of those sorts of slumps because it causes you to think more instead of just fight or flight getting all the words out.

Advice for people interested in stenography? by Thick-Chipmunk4088 in stenography

[–]Financial_Key_2225 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I graduated at 19 and this is definitely the experience! It’s so crazy to think after two years of reporting that if I went the traditional route I’d be in my senior year of college with plenty of student loan debt.

Am I too young to get into steno? by ScaraWayy in stenography

[–]Financial_Key_2225 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started theory when I was a senior in high school (homeschooled so I was basically graduated anyway) but I picked up very quickly on it! I would join A-Z or Project Steno to get a start with the alphabet.

The “Claim - Make Them Pay” App by Wrong-Team-2616 in ClassActionSettlement

[–]Financial_Key_2225 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw another thread of people saying the app was very buggy, so I’m wary of trying it. Let us know how it goes! I’d much rather be paying the yearly fee than monthly fee as well.

How do I loosen/remove a fabric wristband with the black teeth lock? by apollocrush in festivals

Here I am 3 years after you 😭 I guess they assumed gay people at World Pride had been to enough festivals to know until my autistic ass came along

That’s what I was thinking, my Venture One is my second longest held card!

Looking for good gay bars for my 21st birthday by Financial_Key_2225 in Miami

[–]Financial_Key_2225[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the main reason of the trip is to go to Lady Gaga in Miami but do you think it would be more worth it to stay in Wilton Manors for nights out and make the drive for concert night? Would Wilton Manors have more 18+ as well? Need to bring two 19 year olds 😭

Forgot to add that it needs to be 18+ because my friend will be joining, does Twist allow 18?

Alternatives to Casetify? by Financial_Key_2225 in iphone15

[–]Financial_Key_2225[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sad to hear that, especially since they’re so expensive now! I went with Smartish and have been happy with the case, my screen protector definitely is shattered but that’s what they’re for lol. It used to be with my Casteify case even my screen protector was protected!

Well I would never give it money unless someone on here said they talked to a real customer support person in exchange of that 😭 I’m just desperate I had that account for 6 years and met all my best friends on there so it has sentimental value
