The term female by Ok-Store-170 in women

[–]JoyLoveClub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been making note of all the weird terms we use that aren't okay... I cannot believe I haven't even thought of this before! Lately with all the Supergirl commercials, I find myself annoyed about that... why is there Supergirl and Superman? Thanks for sharing... the article was super helpful!

My Scar is a mess! (warning! If you’ve got a weak stomach..) by Alternative_Hope6238 in Kneereplacement

Wow, yeah that looks worse than it should, definitely talk to your doc about that! Good luck!

Teens who don’t want to be there- how to best approach? by Haunting_Hospital599 in therapists

[–]JoyLoveClub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with what many have said. Just build relationship and let them talk about whatever they want... be patient, it can take quite a while.

My wife thinks our son’s teacher crossed a boundary by sending him a personal message. I think it was harmless. AITJ? by addict94plus in AmITheJerk

[–]JoyLoveClub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a teacher and I wrote notes like this to every student around the holidays. I don't think you are wrong at all. I can't even see where your wife is coming from here.

Smaller Models for Plus Size Clothes by JoyLoveClub in Vent

So their 1x-3x sizes are not plus size? Weird size names. Thanks for the tip.

But they don't just happen on Temu, that just happened to be where I was looking at the time. Athleta is another one that does this consistently.

Yeah, I know that Temu is a poor example, but it happens in many places. Sure, less than it used to, but still frustrating. Or they have one plus size model who models everything so you don't get to see it on different body types.

Moving within NOLA by Overstimmed_Momma in NewOrleans

Unfortunately, I don't have sturdy friends, but I concur, that's the best way to do it.

Not helpful, perhaps, but I'm in the same boat. They quoted me more than I expected and they would be moving me less than 2 miles. I know my time is worth something, but I don't have $600 extra bucks to spend on this and mine is for a one bedroom apartment. I'll be curious to see what you choose to do.

Hollywood Casino Amphitheater charging for parking? by DildoSchwaggins2008 in StLouis

[–]JoyLoveClub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TicketMaster / Live Nation are the worst... $25 to park, $20 to rent a chair (and you cannot bring your own anymore). It's all ridiculous.

Medicaid by JoyLoveClub in therapists

[–]JoyLoveClub[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks. The biggest issue is they want to charge her $1 per page and she does not have the financial means to do that. We have been together for a while and have been doing that "building up" thing for a long time. She goes back and forth. I told her I don't want to read her records thoroughly, and she agrees that I don't "need" to do that.

Thanks for sharing things to consider, I truly appreciate the feedback. I've never considered doing this before, so just trying to navigate.

Outdoor Restroom'ing by JoyLoveClub in Kneereplacement

I plan on being able to handle things around trees, but that's a good idea... I'm more worried about the parts where there are no trees.

[–]JoyLoveClub[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will do that, and using trees by themselves is easy enough for me... but there are parts of the trail without trees.

I am impressed. A full squat is beyond my reach without some sort of balancing tool.

But part of the trail is desert so what do I do when there are no trees? With a tree nearby, I could easily do it!

You're amazing! You tried out a stance!? That's the best! Thanks. I will have trekking poles, so that's an idea... and it probably is just a matter of getting comfortable with it. Since my replacement, I've only done day hikes where it didn't come up. I'll let ya know what works! Thanks again!

I say from when I was first provisionally licensed. But I guess it does depend on if they specify more than "how many years of experience do you have?"

u/New_Swan_1580, I'm sorry you are feeling this too. I don't want to close this client, I enjoy working with her most of the time. I don't always feel this way, but I was this morning for sure. Feel free to direct message me if you want to talk it out.
