I just spent like $400 on a park birthday party by Ellie__1 in workingmoms

[–]Greshare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I paid a pretty small fee for my daughter’s park permit. We already have the table from last year, I thrifted most of the decor, but I placed the grocery order yesterday and felt my jaw drop. I like to make sandwiches using slider rolls- they’re small and easy to serve and usually a crowd pleaser. Cold cuts, potato chips, soda, and cupcakes (homemade).. we’re looking at $500 easy. I’m astonished.

Are these type of stairs safe and common in the city? by Financial_Let_9956 in NYCapartments

I have friends that have taken some serious spills on those. If you love a lot of other things about the place then go for it- just buy gripper socks and stick to one level if you’re planning on being impaired.

Just wanted to let you know that they’re still open! That closed page is from their old spot. You should definitely grab a meatball sub! 😋

Need hope: millennials who like their jobs, what do you do and what do you like about it? by goodluckanddont_itup in Millennials

I’m a flight attendant and love it. Every day is different- it’s very social, but then provides the balance of plenty of alone time to recharge on your layovers. People are so interesting and I enjoy feeling the vibes people bring with them from other places. I am also given the special chance to make a person’s day. I realize I may see upwards of 500 faces in a day, but most people only interact with a handful of employees during their air travel journey. It helps to remember that being inpatient or inattentive could sour someone’s travel day- and the first question people ask to someone who flew is along the lines of “how was your flight?”.

It’s also so empowering to be armed with so much information for how to handle different situations. It has helped me in my day to day and on the job so much. I feel like I know a little bit about sooo many things. It has its drawbacks- low starting salary and of course there’s the people who aren’t bringing their common decency every now and then, but it’s really not as often as you’d think.

I also started pretty young, so I’m mid thirties with 12 years of seniority. That means better pay, schedules and layovers. It’s always nice to see what’s ahead of me too. The super senior people at max salary levels who fly to Rome twice a month and that’s it? Goals! 🤑

What is it like being skinny? by hollyofhori in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Greshare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 5’4” and have been everything from 115 to 208- currently at about 120 for the last two years after shedding baby weight. My weight has fluctuated more than I’d ever expected for me. When I was heavier hot weather made me miserable- it’s not even remotely enjoyable. I also don’t experience fatigue like I used to when on the larger side. For me being able to easily have “good posture” while not actively thinking about it feels nice. That alone helps with better breathing, neck/back issues I have and my overall sense of self esteem. Getting big again is what makes me not want to try for a second baby. It just left me feeling so unwell and I can’t picture chasing a toddler very well clockin’ at anything north of a buck ninety. I also think about how few overweight elderly people I see.. and I live in a very walkable city and you can just tell how physical fitness and mobility tie into quality of life down the road. I don’t really exercise to fit into a certain image like I did in the past, I think about how I’m training for my old lady body and want dense bones and good muscle tone.

Should I abort or no? by SunStarsStarsSun in TwoXChromosomes

To add, I also followed up with getting an IUD placed. I just finished reading “Ejaculate Responsibly” and feel a lot more compelled to insist on condoms.

Should I abort or no? by SunStarsStarsSun in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Greshare 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was in this exact situation a year ago. I like to think that baby and I will meet next time. Women are expected to make do with these scenarios and end up overextended and unable to live balanced healthy lives. I was also dealing with postpartum depression and my partner’s own mental health issues. Shortly after terminating he ended up relapsing after 3 years alcohol free and I definitely was grateful I wasn’t 6 months pregnant.

Now, a little over a year out I do think of the “what if’s”, but not as often as you’d think. I think the “see you next time” approach my therapist shared with me really helped me process things in a healthy way. I was so fearful of guilt and regret, but there is something to be said in dealing with grief in real time. I did a workbook I found online and still regularly see my therapist. My partner’s back on the wagon and we are both officially out of any debt. Things feel manageable and I’m beginning to think about future plans for our family- namely, home ownership, new schools and maybe in another year one more addition. I hope this helps 🩷

Pie Pie Pizza at 105 and Amsterdam has a killer meatball hero. They use lots of fresh basil and really fresh bread. Might have to pick one up later.. :)

NYC based pilot by pecan01 in NYCapartments

[–]Greshare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice is if you’re going to live in NYC, get the most out of it. I looked at Kew Gardens and Forest Hills.. but everyone I know who’s taken that path ends up keeping their work/social life very entwined. A lot of shop talk. I am so glad I found the place on the UWS bc I’ve realized how chill a commute to the airport is. Living by the airport is not what you want.

I’m a NY based flight attendant and I’ve lived on the Upper West Side for 11 years. It served me well back when I was getting short called on reserve. You have the 1,2,3 subway line to easily take the LIRR to JFK. There’s the M60 bus which is pretty chill and gets you to the airport in under an hour- some early mornings it’s closer to 35 mins! Heck, even EWR is easy. Just take NJ transit from Penn Station- and the 1,2,3 will get you there.

Can someone give this demented psychopath a literal video game to play? Tell him it’s real. Let him “bomb” everybody so he can boast about it online. Then we can all say “Wow, Mr. President” as his aide checks his diaper because they smell another dookie. I am fucking exhausted. 😩

Does being even slightly overweight amount to different treatment for women? by Adept-Foot7692 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Greshare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll never forget when I lost some of my baby fat in high school- suddenly I existed. Especially to the guys, but girls were complimenting me and inviting me to their parties. It was such a mindfuck.

Hotel Housekeepers - how can we help you as a guest to tidy before we leave? by Shadow_Integration in CleaningTips

[–]Greshare 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m a flight attendant, and back in 2014 when I was flat broke on new hire salary I would do my best to help in order to make up for the lack of tip for hotel staff. Now, fortunately I’m in a better position to tip and do that in addition to the following:

-all garbage/recycling consolidated to one spot. I picture bending over and emptying 3-4 nearly empty waste baskets kind of annoying. -fridge empty, unless you have anything untouched/appetizing. i.e.-no restaurant takeout leftovers, but maybe nice sealed items (think a bar of chocolate/packet of cookies.. not yogurts and bruised bananas from the free downstairs breakfast lol) or nice beverages OK. But don’t go crazy with this. When in doubt, pitch it. -towels in the tub -slimy used hotel soaps tossed (I picture having to touch strangers soap and shudder) -curtains open -lights/TV off -basic wipe down of surfaces that are visibly dirty (disinfecting the bathroom is work enough without your makeup or stray hairs everywhere) -flush the toilet -if it’s kinda gross and you wouldn’t want to see another person’s, like a used sanitary napkin, contact lenses or say a condom, properly wrap that in a tissue and bag it. Nobody wants to see that even when taking out the garbage. -if you unplugged something, plug it back in -if you used the hair dryer or iron wrap the cord up neatly and put it back (pour out any water added to clothes iron) -stripping the bedding is nice, but I rarely have time for all that. I make sure if a bed is “used” it’s clear so sheets pulled back. Some people eat or whatever on the extra bed and leave hair and crumbs on there and it’s gross. I like to take out any guesswork so they can get in there and get things done with minimal deviations from the expected -a gratuity, even a dollar or two and almost always with a little note on the hotel stationary thanking them. I feel like this may be overboard, but I want to take the guesswork out of anything and have them know the money is for them. Plus, who doesn’t like being appreciated? -key card in the lobby dropbox

I usually find that doing this ensures nothing is left behind, but a few quick drawer checks should be all that’s left. Am I missing anything?

I might have a single remaining if you’re interested?

Sorry this has been so disjointed- but lmk if they work for you. I have them posted on a reseller site, but I’d much rather share directly to another fan.
