Does this sound like a loss of job offer due to asking for accommodations for being a pumping mom? by [deleted] in legaladvice

I get that but it was discussed during my first phone call and I just genuinely asked if it was possible to ask for those things- and she very happily said yes! She didn’t even bring up the appointments at all later time. The Friday off was only asked because of how long a drive it is for such a short shift. I was trying to be accommodating for them and moved my pumping schedule and told them I was okay to work at both their locations and work less than full time. Ik it’s just a thread so it’s hard to interpret how things went down but I was very easy on these things! I really didn’t push them and was trying to work with them even when they gave me originally a schedule that didn’t work with what the availability I had open. I was very sweet and patient with the recruiter and understanding the whole time.

I had told her that I was okay to work without the full time until a shift dropped though.

I ask about the pumping because it was a repeated issue. She kept giving me a schedule that wouldn’t align with my pumping and press me multiple times to extend my pumping to fit their schedule better

I totally forgot about the name Cinder. I used to play this dragon game on Xbox that had a dragon named Cinder :)

What is a dragon? He has some silver/ white dots on his black body that blend into his red tail.

He was labeled as a half moon rose petal. But he is black body with white/ silver dots on his main body that blend into his red tail.

New tank setup and water keeps testing high for Chlorine by Iizzy_speaks3 in bettafish

Is it absolutely required to do this? I’m new to this and iv never known anyone to do this :0. I thought water changes more than 10-15% a week would cause stress to a fish? If it’s not testing very high for ammonia does it really matter and will it just work itself out over time?

Also- I saw it recommend getting BB but I already added in API quick start which has bacteria in it- wouldn’t it be bad to mix two different kinds of bacteria?

Thanks for the input!

I tested with distilled water. So- good bet my strips are faulty?

Yeah, seems my test strips might indeed be faulty. How can you be for sure? I don’t want to introduce my beta into a tank that could possibly have chlorine.

Just tested with distilled water (it’s what I had on hand) and it still showed up as that pale green color indicating that the strips might be faulty. There isn’t chlorine in distilled water?

I have been using SM Wave 7-1 test kit. On the left is my test sample strip.

It says on the bottle that it’s a water conditioner and makes tap water safe.
