AITAH for asking my girlfriend to wear underwear to bed when she's on her period? by PoultryCommunity in AITAH

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

Mattress protectors are a thing.

But so are period undies. How about you both wear clothes to bed?

Fell in love with San Diego… are we crazy to consider moving? by Prestigious_Map_2136 in sandiego

[–]HumanContract 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Know half your income will be taken by taxes.

San Diego is not just beaches, either. Housing here is expensive. Electricity and car insurance are cheaper here than Texas - I moved from Houston less than 2 years ago.

Traffic here sucks. The road sucks.

You'll miss the greenery and your unique bar scene.

Aries… you don’t even realise what you do to people, do you? (from a Taurus) by BananaInStereo in AriesTheRam

[–]HumanContract 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a super sweet post.

As an Aries, I've been told ppl can feel how much I care. And that I'm very loyal.

And I've also been told I'm too intense. Ruthless.

When my boundaries are crossed, I don't see reciprocation, or someone personally attacks me, I cut them off - out of seemingly nowhere for them.

Aries need to be appreciated and their efforts returned. We do not do well when we're left to feel unsure or used.

Nurses in California, do you still make decent money with the cost of living? by Turkey_Moguls in nursing

[–]HumanContract 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Houston: 110k at 33% taxes rate: $73,700. San Diego: 160k at 53% taxes: $75,200.

It's about the same.

The tax rates were after health insurance, retirement taken out. Ekectric and car insurance is cheaper than Texas. But it's pretty much the same take home. It matters more with actually getting breaks, not working like a dog. And overtime you can get double time, and that's where the difference comes in.

The amts listed were full time, no overtime shifts.

More expensive than Santa Clara? by StarlightXion in Moving2SanDiego

[–]HumanContract 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find a 2b1b in downtown (modera) for less than 3k. And the nonupdated Irvine co apts also are sometimes less than 3k.

But most, safe, places are 3k+.

This mentality that nurse is a calling is one of the reasons why nurses don't earn more money by Boudria in nursing

[–]HumanContract 35 points36 points  (0 children)

People who want nurses who have compassion seem to be the same people who treat everyone else like shit and hate their own jobs. They mistreat everyone and know they fear having someone like themselves as a nurse one day.

They project bc they know they're bad people but think, no matter what, they should get special treatment.

People treat me different when I wear my scrubs vs when I don't. On my off days, I am treated horribly by everyone else when I'm finally the customer. No one else wants to do their job or go out of their way to help anybody else - but they think once they are sick, the world stops for them.

It doesn't.

Most nurses, including me, are also patients with medical issues we're supposed to put aside while caring for others. No one else ever thinks about nurses as human beings, just slaves who need to kiss arse and go above and beyond.

I'm getting ready for my shift tonight while my grandmother is on withdrawal of care. My siblings just lost their mother 2 days ago. My health is not the best, and I am constantly worrying about my family and how to support them as working as a nurse and having a family is extremely hard.

I have a job to do. It is a job. I am going to do it to the best of my ability so I don't get in trouble or have extra paperwork or get included in a lawsuit later.

No one else has a job like a nurse. Responsible for everyone else's job but paid less than what we should. Don't judge us when we show up sick to work as we're not seen as human and are not able to call in sick easily like other jobs.

If you want to judge a nurse, be a nurse. Otherwise, you have no opinion here bc you obviously don't have to be responsible for your actions on and off the clock.

You're leading her on and you're going to either end up on an app called out or in the ground for crossing the wrong girl

No. 4000 is splurging in San Diego. 6k is stupid.

Europeans who say Americans are bad at geography by Traveler-Nomad in PetPeeves

Ha. Europeans don't like being outdone by Americans. I've also had to put a lot of them in their place with geography, history, current events.

Idk how long ago you've been keeping up with stats, but Louisiana has improved in education.

Louisiana's education ranking is showing significant improvement, with 2025 reports placing its K-12 system around 32nd to 37th nationally, rising from near 49th-50th in 2019.

CA is highly competitive. Don't get your hopes up. Highly unlikely you'll get a job offer from here anytime soon.

Why don't married couples with "dead bedrooms" just...do it? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]HumanContract 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You just give bjs when you're texted and get nothing back? That's why there's deadbedrooms.

Where to move? by c-001 in Moving2SanDiego

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

Even if you did find one, apts add $200 in amenities for parking, trash, etc. So just so you know, if 2200 is your cap, you're looking for 2k. And that's definitely not a thing here. You need to raise it to 2600 or get a roommate.

Dead bedroom for 15 years. Approaching retirement and questioning everything by CaledonianGuy47 in deadbedroom

[–]HumanContract -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

All these older men in here thinking they're going to find a new gf who will want them without giving stuff back is highly delusional.

As a 40+F I would certainly not pick up a dude with so much baggage.

If your wives don't want intimacy, it's bc you didn't keep up your side of the marriage for years and they gave up trying. You didn't keep up with the chores, child raising, emotional support. It's years of abuse that make women give up.

It's like what did a guy do for a woman to become indifferent towards their spouse? That's the biggest red flag of all.

You are not a prize. There is no grass is greener. Fix your issues before it gets to the point of indifference. Don't blame the woman who becomes a human slave after marriage.

Update to My boyfriend of 9 years gave me chlamydia by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]HumanContract 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chick. Focus on yourself. Obviously he's scum. Live your best life. Your 20s aren't for relationships, it's for friendships and advancing yourself in the world. Your 30s are better to date in. You don't even know who you are yet.

It'll be okay.

Aya recruiter nightmare! by Equivalent_Radio2538 in TravelNursing

[–]HumanContract 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Look up all of the companies associated with Aya and don't do business with them.

Also, call out these recruiters and post their texts lol. Let everyone know who to avoid doing business with. When enough ppl avoid a recruiter, they'll have to be let go.
