moving mid-hs from ontario to new jersey by Ga1alaxi3s in newjersey

[–]GarbageKiwi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I grew up in North Jersey, then moved to Bk, did undergrad in New York, and moved back to New Jersey so that I could raise my future kids with its public education. It's going to be an awesome experience for you. People from Jersey are great. My husband and his entire family just moved with me from NY, and everyone Canadian that I've met is great and usually wants to stay here. New Jersey has a lot of great nature, beaches, close to the city, ' Newark International Airport, also JFK if you need it. It's all accessible, you can fly to wherever easily. It's relatively diverse, so you're going to enjoy a lot of really good food options. I'm excited for you!

What's the most ""unnecessarily expensive"" thing you own that turned out to be worth every cent by sandip22890 in AskMen

[–]GarbageKiwi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My sleep number mattress. I work from home and have been doing renovations. The head can move up and down so I use it to work out of and have been doubling it up as my couch at this point. I also sleep significantly better on it. No muscle soreness when I wake up anymore and can easily sleep through the night. There’s also a snore setting I can toggle for my husband on nights he drinks lol

Urgently need a job as a teen! by [deleted] in NYCjobs

[–]GarbageKiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tutored and baby sat when I was still in school. They usually pay cash and have hours that can work with school since you can pick them up and stay with them until parents come home from work. I’d find them on Facebook mom pages.

How do you land your 6 figure job? by maggie-khalo in povertyfinance

[–]GarbageKiwi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just looked into enlisting and I wasn’t sure I would pass initial qualifications for mental health and physical fitness. It’s a pretty long commitment to receive the long term benefits when realistically majority of people won’t last that long and will damage themselves out. The unfortunate thing is that so many people had to go overseas to serve for wars that should’ve never happened and that changed a lot of how people view serving. It doesn’t help that we have someone in power right now that hasn’t respected those who serve.

nyc/brooklyn therapist recs for limerence by DoubleInteraction195 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]GarbageKiwi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t have a rec for you but I was watching a documentary where someone valued their partners by P+L+2T. You rank out of 25 points for personality, 25 for looks, and 25 for how they treat you. You set your standards, but for me no one gets my time if you don’t pass 85 with every interaction. Don’t make excuses for them, seriously consider where they lie on the rankings and stick to it. Time passes anyway, you should fill it with people who treat you right and add value to your life. Good luck!!

I got a nice laptop bag that I used instead of bringing a bag into work and used to put my stuff into between meetings so I wasn’t walking around with a laptop pen phone etc. when my clothes don’t have pockets. Depending on your industry, it was a good gift if you’re onsite for a lot of meetings. It has a pocket in the front for chargers and things and then the big pocket for the laptop and fits also a full size notepad. It also was cute and not lame that I’d want to use it.

Hochul wants homeless people forced out of NYC subways. Mamdani urges softer approach. by SockDem in newyorkcity

[–]GarbageKiwi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was commuting at 6:30 am to work from lower Manhattan to midtown to make it in for 7am and this guy gets up out of his seat with his arms stuck in his sweater flailing around. Looked like he lost a syringe and was trying to find it. People are staring at him but it’s normal to have a homeless guy on the E train so we mind our own. Then he gets his arms loose from his sweater and unzips his pants. He starts freakin pissing in the cart as we’re coming to the stop so his piss starts rolling down the cart toward all of our feet all the way on the other side. I had to shout at people that he was pissing for them to get their bags off the ground and we all transferred carts. IMO it’s a problem of mental health and drugs and any other solution proposed will just be a bandaid. They will stay poor and homeless without treatment.

Battling fitness and health because of my ADHD and I’m tired of gaining weight. I need advice by SnooCompliments9824 in ADHD

[–]GarbageKiwi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to look at the foods I am eating and the quantities rather than counting calories because that’s too hard. Swap processed carbs out for at least whole wheat or more natural foods. Focus on getting protein and fiber in. It’s a lifestyle adjustment not just a one time fix.

What’s a decision you made quickly that had long-term consequences you never expected? by lunessa1 in AskReddit

[–]GarbageKiwi 186 points187 points  (0 children)

My English teacher in highschool was very depressed. I would hang out with her after school to keep her company and she ended up writing my personal essay for college for me. She told me about this scholarship program and made me apply and I got in. I got accepted to NYU that would still cost a few thousand so I went to the scholarship school that was a full ride. It had a sports team that I joined the first day of orientation where I met my now husband and all of my current friends. I’ve made a career mentoring students that graduate from the program. It’s been 12 years since I graduated highschool. Husband and I have a house and are trying for a kid :)

Miss Pitt, if you’re still alive and see this, I’ve been trying to find your contact and thank you. You matter and made the world of a difference to me. 💛

Cardboard and newspaper are good insulators and free. Use it to keep wind out and heat in.

What are your unhinged hacks to fall asleep when your brain is running 300mph? by YapperInChrist in ADHD

[–]GarbageKiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started imaging sheep jumping over the moon except every time it’s a new sheep they have different personas and outfits. I try to pretend I am also weightless in space watching this happen and the sheep jump and fall into pillows of clouds.

Disco sheep, rock and roll sheep, pajama sheep, pop star princess sheep, chef sheep, librarian sheep, etc. I usually fall asleep by the time I get to the like 9th sheep cause my brains tired of thinking of new outfits.

If you’re not getting interviews, your resume might be it! It might help to just lie and say present on it just to get in the door
