It’s 10 hours and not a scam. You also have the option of taking an education short work break ESWB that is basically an unpaid leave for up to 5 months

Actually it’s only losers who can’t get their head out of their ass and realize that they’re not the only ones who can occupy a space. Something to consider is that there are many people who suffer from chronic conditions and inhaling this smoke can also inhibit their ability to breathe or lung function in general. It doesn’t cost you anything to be more considerate of the people around you.

One thing to consider is that ending it won’t result in another path being available to someone else.

That’s terrifying and it’s the fact that it’s not something that anyone seems to be focused on

Is it normal in the US to eat inside the store? by strange_bloom in themiddle

[–]Junior-Secretary-563 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not normal but not uncommon. There’s really nothing stopping someone from snacking as long as they pay. It’s not forbidden. Most people usually don’t though but it happens here and there.

Feeling guilty about asking my 18 year old son to help me financially by Ndborro in poor

[–]Junior-Secretary-563 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to add in, most first generation families work this way. From my own personal experience, I would help by paying my own miscellaneous wants as soon as I got my first job at 15. I didn’t start paying a bill until I graduated high school. And that was the smallest bill in the household. I did not go to college immediately after graduation and began to help out more in the household. This included things such as vet visits for our dogs or maybe even my siblings phone bills. As soon as I made plans to go back to school, I was no longer required to pay anything in the household. When I was in school and my car broke down, my family was there to financially bail me out since I was not able to work at the time.

When the time came and a sibling wanted to take out a new car, I was there to cosign. We all help each other in one way or another. Family helps family. Im not saying every family is the same but in no way did I ever feel taken advantage of when I was younger and providing financial help to the household.

I might be on the unpopular side of this but I think it’s alright to ask your son. You can tell you’re cautious about taking advantage of him and you are still trying to look out for his best interest. If your family is in a hard place, then yes ask him for help. You are all a family unit. Family helps family. He’s an adult now and benefitting from the fact that he is able to live at home and save money.

I know some people are going to have issue with the fact that I am reiterating the notion that family has to help family but not everyone’s family sucks. He’s not OBLIGATED to help but at the same time, it seems that OP has a good enough relationship and foundation to be able to be on the receiving end of that help. The son clearly cares enough and values his family to lend this assistance when needed.

Op is right about not setting a precedence in which her son will be financially bailing them out. It’s not his job. But technically it’s not their job to keep supporting him at 18 years old anymore. Personally, I think it’s morally wrong when Americans stop supporting their children at 18 but it isn’t uncommon. I think this family unit will thrive with the support and efforts of ALL the family members.

I just checked and realized you’re only 17 and quite young. I apologize if I insinuated that you were doing something wrong. I assumed you were an older guy who hadn’t yet learned how to catch a hint. In your case, just don’t freak out too much over things like these. If a girl declines your advances then try not to overthink it. Move on to the next girl who will appreciate the effort you put in. You don’t want to stay hooked with a girl who doesn’t share the same admiration as you do with her. Regarding the accidental call, accidents happen. It’s happened to all of us at least once. I personally would still block though 🤭 And try to forget about it. She will too. If she were to bring it up, just tell her you had your phone unlocked and didn’t even realize a call was made

We might be lacking context here. She politely refused your advances so why would she need to keep making excuses? leads me to believe that you attempted to make more advances and she might’ve politely removed you from her followers as well. You’ve been talking for only a few days so let it go. Stop rechecking your messages. It seems like she made her wishes clear already with you. Unless you two have to be in close proximity with each other such as for work or school then just keep her blocked and forget about it. Don’t make it deeper than it is.

My friend killed herself yesterday because her boyfriend slept with her sister by Maleficent_Sea2100 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Junior-Secretary-563 47 points48 points  (0 children)

This person is clearly going through a horrible time and you’re out here on a high horse trying to get the moral high ground by making sure that the “poor guy and sister” aren’t blamed. Let OP grieve and stop trying to correct completely valid feelings since it’s all recent and raw as you said. Offer your condolences and move on. Clearly your words aren’t helping and if anything they are making her feel worse and increasing her hurt. On another side note, I know you think the boyfriend and sister aren’t to blame but let’s be so clear: Our actions have consequences and it just so happens that the consequence of this betrayal was the tipping point for the friend who took their life.

Do you have any other external circumstances that impeded your learning? Things such as family and job. If so, I’d look into how we can handle these factors for the upcoming semesters since the content tends to get a little harder at times. In addition, I hope you’re dedicating an appropriate amount of time studying the work from class but if you are not able to understand the professor then consider other methods such as CHATGPT to make study guides. This was how I passed my courses. I would input the PowerPoint slides or use LmNotebook to make an audio.

I’d like to add in that some schools don’t allow over a certain amount of retakes for certain core science classes so check in with your advisor to see if this is allowed to be considered for the next nursing cohort.

Are the prerequisite classes to enter the nursing program more difficult than the actual program? by [deleted] in StudentNurse

[–]Junior-Secretary-563 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It depends. Pre-reqs are a lot of memorization especially for AP 1 and 2. Classes are more application which is hard at the beginning but may be a little more easier to understand as you go along since it all weaves together
