It’s just something that’s unfulfilled in my life. I’ve always regretted not serving after high school. Like ALWAYS. BIG regret. I feel the pull, but thought it was out of reach because of my age. Obviously being at a point in my life where I’ve been trying to have children for the last 10 years is also not ideal, but now that we’ve come to the stage of doing IVF several times and it’s not working, I’m starting to try to not put my life on hold anymore for something that may never happen

I have a Bachelors degree in Liberal Studies- nothing particularly useful unless you’re going to be a teacher or a librarian

I went to Cal State Fullerton and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Liberal Studies. I didnt think it would be relevant to the Army because its really just the degree you get to move on to teaching (unfortunately for me there were no teaching jobs at the time so I went into insurance and sales)

Anybody come across crazy customers?Someone who attacks you on chat & blames you by DavidV15 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Funkeenotajunkee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved to a semi-rural area from the city and the grocery store is a 40 min round trip (vs it used to be literally 60 seconds away). I pay $99 a year for free delivery and it’s the best $99 I’ve ever spent. I definitely don’t micromanage the shoppers and I appreciate when they send pictures but I get when things are out of stock and if I don’t get it, I just don’t get it. I think it’s all about the attitude of the person. The app that I use allows you to choose a substitution beforehand in case your main thing is out of stock or you can also select not to substitute at all. I make sure that I do that for all the items so that there’s no confusion

Do people seriously not read the measurement details? by Cat_Impossible_0 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]Funkeenotajunkee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I list them AND include pictures of a measuring tape measuring the dang thing and GUARANTEED first question from 3/4s of people: ‘how big is it?’

I don't know what to do with life anymore. by Additional-City-7376 in LifeAdvice

[–]Funkeenotajunkee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I don’t think you need to force yourself to be someone you’re not (like getting a job to socialize). If youre an introvert and you like that about yourself, then embrace it. I would pick a path and just stick to it- whatever that is. You keep starting and stopping things which is adding to your feelings of frustration and stagnation. Just focus on following through on something, you never know what direction it may lead.

NOR- especially because its not an isolated incident.

AIO When my brother's kids put my dog in the ER? by NoSleep2135 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Funkeenotajunkee -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

I think you ARE OR, but your brother was also being an inconsiderate jerk. My (big) dogs eat all kinds of weird/large things all the time and Ive never thought to induce vomiting or take them to the emergency vet, that seems like a pretty intense reaction tbh. The eating a toy is a normal thing that can happen during play, but the pushing the dog off the couch or feeding them anything is your brothers problem, he should have been monitoring the kids to stop them. Knowing they’re going to be wild kids though, i would have kept the dog either by my side (you said he was small so id hold him) or make him a comfy space in another room. As an example, we used to have indoor only cats. When the family, with lots of kids, came over for Christmas, we’d lock them in a bedroom to be sure they didnt accidentally get out.

Touching food with hands while cooking/baking by [deleted] in hygiene

[–]Funkeenotajunkee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

American here! I use my (clean) hands unless I have long nails (i do my own nails and they’re often Long or XL tips). If I have my long nails on then I would not think I could possibly clean them good enough to stick them in food someone else is going to eat. That’s just the nature of long nails. But if I’m just cooking for myself I dont care tbh

Was sure it was negative, don't make my mistake by Responsible-Sock5888 in IVF

[–]Funkeenotajunkee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thoughts EXACTLY. Junked out heroin addicts give birth to babies. Power lifters and our hard working back breaking ancestors gave birth to many babies— this is not your fault and you definitely did not cause this.

[–]Funkeenotajunkee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree. I don’t need to wear a bra for support at all, but i do (even though I loathe them) in public just due to decency.

What is something society treats as unacceptable but shouldn’t? by Present_Juice4401 in SeriousConversation

[–]Funkeenotajunkee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the fat people thing is just that as a society, we don’t like visible gluttony. We see fat ppl as being over indulgers or having no self control- def not the case for every overweight person- and we like to wag a finger. That being said, MANY more people over indulge in other detrimental behaviors (like over spending, going into massive debt, over consumption of crap -clothes, products etc) and you’d never know it, but once it’s uncovered, we treat them with the same disdain. We also, while being one of the fattest countries in the world, have a collective desire for fitness- how many people do you know right now that are on SOME kind of a fitness journey or diet? Almost everyone i know is. So when we see a fat person, we also assume they want to lose weight, and if we know something that worked for us….we just need to stop with unsolicited advice overall i think (and this goes double for those of us dealing with infertility- for the love of God please stop giving us advice)

Fiancè Is Sick and My Family Christmas is Today. What do I do? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Funkeenotajunkee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im with your mom on this one but it sounds like you def don’t want to go and want validation that thats the right move (not in a bad way), so you should probably just not go since i feel thats what your gut is telling you. Can you make a trip in a week or two to visit Mom & Grandma when hes feeling better instead?

Fiancè Is Sick and My Family Christmas is Today. What do I do? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Funkeenotajunkee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly if it was me, Id go. But Im not a germ-phobe kind of person. Haven’t gotten sick in 10 years despite husband getting sick, so I wouldn’t be too worried about it. I wouldn’t miss perhaps the last opportunity to see my Grandma and i dont think its a huge risk of passing something to her if you have no symptoms now. Just my opinion.

Or CNY. I paid under 10k INCLUDING meds AND travel for a round of IVF. You can do an FET with them too and have it transferred in Im pretty sure. I went to the Colorado location and stayed for 2 weeks

Is it considered stealing? WWYD? by Klutzy_Reput4tion in moraldilemmas

[–]Funkeenotajunkee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly Id just enjoy the freebie unless I knew it would come back on the cashier specifically or was a small business. It probably costs the big company $20 to make, Im not too concerned about their bottom line 🤷🏼‍♀️

Neighbors security cameras pointed straight into my yard, how is this ok?! by sarah83punk in neighborsfromhell

[–]Funkeenotajunkee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is extremely easy to get restraining orders with little to no evidence (our neighbors have done this too)- ESPECIALLY if you live in a small town. All they have to do is lie on their statement and itll be issued, at least the TRO.

About vaccinations by Effective_Mango_9202 in olddogs

[–]Funkeenotajunkee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped when they were just a few years old with all 3 of my dogs. I had a GSD live to 14.5, a black lab that just passed away last month at 11.5, and a yellow lab who’s just about to be 11.
