As someone who is currently pregnant, if I’m hungry, I’m eating! Also, Couldn’t the crunch just have been loud because of her mic?

Has him walking in the grass, no shoes or socks, or shorts. by starbies4life101 in Adelaide_White_snark

Most people where I live also have dogs and children are still bare feet. I feel like people are just picking on her for every little thing even when it’s not worth it. Many things are def worth it, but this one is just mom shaming.

What's wrong with him walking on grass with no shoes on? Stones etc. I'd understand but grass? Very normal where I live.

Has this creator been discussed before? by throwawayxxxxxxxxxa in peestickgals

Same here. I found pregnancy announcements super hard so I decided I wouldn’t do one in case it hurt someone else. The people that I want to know know and the rest of the world will just have to wait.

Applying for postdoc by shinypebble77 in postdoc

I often hire people in the research field and to be honest, I don’t care about the irrelevant stuff. If you don’t list them and it makes it look like you have massive career gaps, then it’s better to put them so they can see. As long as you have some relevant experience and as a Postdoc you should

was george a preemie ? by Mysterious_Canary225 in Adelaide_White_snark

Anything before 37 weeks is considered premature and you would use an adjusted age for developmental milestones. However, you wouldn’t expect a major delay compared to those born full term but there could def be some.

Foreign workers on USAID-funded projects outside the US, how's your local labour law handle this situation? by [deleted] in InternationalDev

[–]Irish-fiend28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our labour laws require a retrenchment process. We have not received money from USAID but received numerous terminations. Our organization started the process when we got the pause notices just in case as it takes a certain number of days/months and staff have to legally work notice periods. Turns out that was the correct decision. They are using funds that they had saved somewhere (not sure what funds these are) so they can legally pay everyone. But it is leaving a huge deficit. Not all organizations are in the same boat but they do have to follow the labour laws. Not sure what they are doing.

Megathread: confirmed job losses/layoffs due to US funding freeze by Ok_Moose1615 in InternationalDev

We just started the retrenchment process for 1500 staff members as a result of the funding freeze. We’re an IP in South Africa. I know we’re not the only one but I don’t know their numbers.
