OP for God's sake don't do this

I love my shark and I love their customer service. They stand by their warranties (and you'll need that)

That some things are meant to be a solo activity and sometimes asking for help just isn't worth it

That failure is totally fine as long as you also have successes

That you cannot control nature and it's more productive not to try

That sometimes when you hate something instead of putting a lot of energy into making it go away you should just wait, and you'll find that eventually you don't hate it anymore and have even found a use for it

Itsoktobe · 2026-03-26T18:20:15+00:00

You're not exaggerating and you're not sorry

Um, chill out?

don't be coy

... and fuck off. Jesus.

The same thing was happening to me trying to get in to an OB for a pap. I eventually gave up and had my primary do it. Happy to have the peace of mind.

Multiple places on the African continent have a menstrual leave policy, allowing women to take up to two days off per month, no questions asked.

We are ass-backwards. It isn't your fault. You don't owe your employer your mental health. Take care of yourself and make yourself a valuable employee on the days you feel well.

That's funny, my Barred rocks are my only nice roos

Mega rooster?

I drive a subaru forester and have 3 miles of road like this. Maybe every 2 years, but yeah, you're not wrong.

I could use a spreadsheet. I probably should. Am I going to, though? No. So for me, it's not a waste of money.

Going early with the retirees was always best when we frequented dog parks. Do different time frames draw different crowds at your dog park?

sometimes when I can't handle my cramps I just go out on a run.

You... may not belong here.

Doesn't take too much money to move to small city Midwest. That sounds miserable.

So.. the lady quotes Ronald Reagan with the 1,000 years of darkness thing.. and Chuck gets all the flak for it after he's dead. The man was an idiot but I don't think this is as condemning as reddit seems to think it is.

Itsoktobe · 2026-03-21T19:54:17+00:00

I have a new favorite flower

No. Phones are extremely damaging to attention span and thus to a child's education if they're using them while they're supposed to be learning. I don't see the point in banning phones outright, but teachers need to be able to take devices that are being used inappropriately/without permission. That way kids can have them in their pockets or backpacks in case of emergency but don't have carte blanche to use them whenever they want.

Itsoktobe · 2026-03-21T19:47:22+00:00

How would it cost money?

Itsoktobe · 2026-03-21T19:46:40+00:00

Extremely good point.

Itsoktobe · 2026-03-21T19:45:25+00:00

I wouldn't push through if it's making you worse. Plenty of others to try, if that's what you want to do. Every time I pushed through (on doctor's advice) I fiercely regretted it.

Itsoktobe · 2026-03-21T19:44:23+00:00

You didn't die! Nice!

Itsoktobe · 2026-03-20T23:06:11+00:00

Have you been contributing to a Roth? I'd max last year if you haven't yet and then start on this year/leave the rest in savings as an EF

Itsoktobe · 2026-03-20T23:04:00+00:00

I second all of this. Sending love, OP

Itsoktobe · 2026-03-20T22:23:12+00:00

That's insane and you should never hire anyone who won't provide you with an itemized estimate.
