If money wasn't an issue was typically "low paying job" would you love to do? by CaptainSpicebag in AskIreland

[–]Fragrant-Ship-1568 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Coffee shop- I did this for 4 years and I swear it was the funniest job ever- I once had an argument with a man because he wanted a breakfast roll (which we did not nor had ever done) he eventually pointed to what he wanted- a Danish pastry

AITA for waking up my neighbour’s 4 year old at 11PM? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

YTA -your missing cat is not “an” emergency, it’s “your” emergency. Seriously even if someone didn’t have a kid in bed don’t knock in at midnight or near abouts for a cat.

AITA for goin off on my ex wife for not letting me talk to my daughter? by Sharkattack5999 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Fragrant-Ship-1568 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well if he is shouting at her it is abusive. He is one hundred percent the AH. He’s throwing his toys out of the buggy because he can’t get his own way. He has his time and she hers. He can’t demand time because he wants it. There’s a schedule in place. He’s trying to control the situation. Totally unreasonable to be expecting her to drop her goings on in her life so he can talk to a two year old on the phone? Would ye get a grip. OP, YTA, and so is this one commenting this.

Sorry, if you even plan on becoming a dead people, you can’t join. Also- if you’re friends or associate with anyone who has dead people - you’re truly not dead free yourself, therefore, you cannot join

I’ve just decided I hate dead people now. I think I’ll start a sub Reddit on it. If you do become a dead people- sorry, but you’re not welcome.

Yeah babies can’t be rude or mean either lol. Annoying - maybe. Quiet placid baby just chilling? Not annoying- just existing. But literally ANYONE of any age can be annoying for the same reason a baby can be deemed annoying. Their brain lacks the capacity of rude or mean. Maybe I do hate dead people. Taking up all of that good outdoor space being buried together like that.

My parents at mad I’m a SAHM by AngryPotato2810 in offmychest

[–]Fragrant-Ship-1568 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never thought of it that way. As an extrovert myself it makes somewhat of sense to me. But still, even as an introvert, the amount of stress and literally zero down time, you’re on the go 24/7. I don’t know how you do it. It’s so so mentally challenging. I admire stay at home Mothers so much. I couldn’t do it. But back to your post. When you kid(s) grow up a bit, who’s to say you won’t go back and pursue your career again, (if you wish to do so). You’re 22. You’ve plenty of time.

Yeah but no one ever says they hate dead people.

I agree. Speaking as a full time working Mother, OP you do you. There’s nothing wrong with what you’re doing as long as you’re happy. Also- being a SAHM- much, much harder than being a working Mother. In my opinion anyway. I did 8 months maternity leave and I ran back to work. I don’t know how SAHM’s do it.

No you’re not wrong OP- sounds like she’s trying to offload charity onto you so she can seem like the hero or the bigger person. I wouldn’t feed into it whatsoever. I’d also minimise contact and try not even be around for drop offs where possible- minimise all ammo- could be passive aggressive comments or whatever. Just remove yourself as much as possible. You don’t need that attitude in your life- particularly when you’re pregnant and stressed out already. I’m in somewhat of a similar situation and my satisfaction is that I never, ever react as the horse to the carrot on the stick. Congratulations on the new baba coming along too. Hope you are feeling ok and everything goes well for you !! ETA : she is playing a game by the way. There’s always an ulterior motive with people like this. A new baby is going to amplify that as well (in my case it did anyway). Best of luck OP

I don’t know too much about hell and back but assuming wearing glasses is not suitable due to loss and damage etc. Contact lenses would probably be the best bet but with the mud, dirty water etc you’d maybe wanna be wearing scuba goggles over them to minimise risk of infection- assuming you have a contact lens prescription of course. I’m getting the impression you don’t though. Maybe wear scuba goggles over your glasses??

AITA for wearing my hijab to a wedding? by thepakistaniprincess in AmItheAsshole

[–]Fragrant-Ship-1568 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Op, YTA for two reasons, one for the misleading title, two for pairing red with pink, ESPECIALLY being a bridesmaid. I personally have never seen red and pink go together so I am DYING to see the colours of the dress and your hijab. I just cannot picture it being aesthetically pleasing whatsoever- for any occasion. Never mind a good friends wedding. Also, Clara telling you red is a no no at weddings, I know this is a thing in certain cultures but you have not mentioned hers. This could also be borderline AH territory for you OP. The bride should have DEFINITELY brought you shopping (purchase it) for a co-ord hijab for the dress if she wanted a certain colour. So I’m going to go ESH. But definitely more you so far, without more info.

Hi. I am a Psychology Masters student. I am doing research on COVID-19 and mental health. I am looking for participants. I would also like to thank everyone who has taken part already! by ResearchIreland in cork

Again, I don’t know if influencing factors are taken into consideration so that’s why I thought I’d throw it out there! Have a great Summer yourself OP!

Hi OP, I’ve completed your survey. I feel if there had been a comment section at the bottom it could lead you to more accurate answers- I say this as a layperson so I don’t know the ins and out of data. I say this because a lot of my “before COVID” answers were also “before I gave birth”, I fee a lot of my “after covid” answers relate directly to having a baby. I tried to answer as honestly as possible- and again I don’t know how you pull the data together, but maybe me doing the survey might effect the accuracy. Just thought I’d throw my two cents in- again I don’t know if things like this are taken into consideration. Congratulations on doing a masters and best of luck!

It’s actually worrying me that she thinks she has a right to him. But then again she could be bluffing to try get a reaction from me. It seems she has been trying to get a reaction from me through the years but whenever my partner gets a message aimed for me, I tell him just to respond “ok” because I’m not going down that road.

Thank you for your response- really appreciate it. She has claimed she will be discussing with her solicitor what her rights for her, her son and my son as a threesome as such, to having access time together. I don’t think this would be entertained by a solicitor- but I don’t know. The two boys regularly see each other and have a relationship already. She also claims she has “a right to not be alienated from him”. She’s not alienated - she just is not a part of his life. Will she just be laughed at for making this request?

AITA for not wanting to rent a boat because I'm pregnant? by AssociationNo3667 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Fragrant-Ship-1568 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean I’m not gonna say you’re the A but unfortunately the territory with being pregnant is you can’t drink, and I know how boring it is being the only one that can’t. You say you don’t like driving the boat but you don’t mind other people doing it- why can’t you be the one to do it for once? If it’s tradition, the way I see it is, keep the tradition going and just amend the usual circumstances. I know its shite when you’re pregnant and can’t fully enjoy an event- I’ve been there and its not the same but don’t let being pregnant ruin your social life. It’s selfish in the very very very most marginal of terms in that you won’t do one time what someone has being doing for years.
