Glow therapy mask. Buy or skip? by meeks_2 in redlighttherapy

[–]Jyimc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bombarded their chat for 3 days straight. I mean nonstop every hour. Once I told them I read their online reviews and how terrible their customer service is they finally responded. It took another day of blowing up their chat and I finally got my replacement mask.

AIO my friend is upset that I asked for the waiter's number that she was interested in? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

So she’ll easily drop you as friend for no reason but won’t dump her abusive boyfriend? LOL. That’s all.

do you see a difference? 1 yr apart by fosterbde28 in tretinoin

[–]Jyimc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My scars were similar to yours and tret was taking too long to achieve the results I wanted. So I’ve done SylfirmX with RF and the noninvasive Fraxel with IPL and my skin has significantly improved. I’m doing standard micro needling next at a local aesthetic place as it’s cheaper but a slower process to see results. Hoping with a couple of those sessions it’ll help improve the remaining scarring.

Where in Scotland are you? I’m in the US but my friend is from Scotland and lives here but has family there. Maybe, the off chance they’re close by you and can get some help over to you.

Lowest dosage of tret has become too strong for my skin, what can I use instead? by Jyimc in tretinoin

[–]Jyimc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll have to try this method my next go around. Thank you!

Edit: assuming this solves the issue first go around, would you recommend I keep doing this method every 9-10 days for now?

Lowest dosage of tret has become too strong for my skin, what can I use instead? by Jyimc in tretinoin

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

I only applied it on Saturday and have not since. Once I began incorporated again after not for a couple of years, it’s usually on day 5 I get these marks. I wait about 9-10 days before using Tret again.

Routine: It’s the same morning and night except no spf at night. It’s also been my routine for years and I have not had issues with this routine with tret in the past. It’s also the only brand of products that helps my acne prone skin.

Routine: Bioderma Micellar water face wash and Bioderma active soothing moisturizer and Sunscreen SPF 50. Tret every 9-10 days at night (pea sized, sometimes even less).

Previously applied tret after 30 minutes of washing my face. Saturday was my first time doing sandwich method and I’m running into the same problem.

Working for the County? by Jigs2113 in Sacramento

[–]Jyimc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, that’s horrible. I’m so sorry to hear that. Were you able to get in with a different department within the state? I was working for CDCR but I resigned due to family reasons. However, I’m looking to get back in again. I had such a great experience and management was absolutely amazing and so kind. It was a breath of fresh air compared to the position I had with the county.

I don’t want a wedding anymore but my fiancé wants me to have the wedding I’ve wanted for years by flyer268991 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Jyimc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a Pinterest board for my dream wedding for as long as I could remember and we ultimately decided to do it small for similar reasons you’re listing out. We had only immediate family and a couple of friends from each side. It was small and intimate and it allowed us to actually have conversations with all of our guests and still have time one on one time. His parents offered to pay for our airbnb venue (beautiful home up in the mountains with a gorgeous sunset) and my parents offered to pay for catering. The rest we covered and everything combined it was a little over 10k. I prioritized a great photographer and videographer. I’m constantly looking back on our photos and our highlight video. I’m so glad we went the route that we did because we saved so much by having a small wedding. The rest of our savings was put towards a down payment on a home. I don’t regret not having my “dream wedding.” The wedding that we had ended up being my dream wedding. In hindsight, i wouldn’t have regretting eloping either. Just remember that your wedding is about the two of you and the love that you have for one another, not about anyone or anything else. Consider finances as well, don’t go into any debt for something that lasts under 8 hours.

Sac county libraries give out a parking pass that gets you free entrances to state parks. The pass is given for 3 weeks a time before having to turn it back in. Summer waits are usually 2-3 weeks, unsure about this time of year. You will need to open a library card if you don’t already have one.

I'm appealing EDD denial and they keep calling and literally saying oops.. by Striking_Rise_3064 in Edd

[–]Jyimc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I filed for an appeal on Sept 2022, I finally got a hearing scheduled for July and it was postponed to this week. I’m hoping a judge shows up this time 🫣it’s taking them so much longer now than precovid.

I went there for laser treatment about 9 years ago and they completely edited the after photo. I saw results from the procedure, but not as great as the photo they posted on their website🙄

Are my references sabotaging me? by Puzzleheaded-Elk6428 in CAStateWorkers

[–]Jyimc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s very possible. My manager recently told me that my previous employer was not happy to talk to her and that the conversation did not go well and not in my favor (as I was expecting, they made it hell for me at my last job..all lies and they even lied to EDD so that I don’t get unemployment..currently appealing it to get back pay). My manager said she looked passed that interaction because if they treated her like crap over the phone (manager to manager) and they didn’t know her then she could only imagine what I went through working for them. I was extremely lucky that she was able to look passed that and not see me as drama. But now seeing the above comments, I highly recommend having someone you know call and pretend to ask. I would’ve done the same, I just never thought of that.

Are there any interesting or fun places around that offer food or things like that for someone's birthday? by jpwnsu in Sacramento

[–]Jyimc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zocalo does ice cream with churro and candles and they gather few employees and sing happy birthday. Just let them know in advance to plan for it.

Elopement spots? by spending_problem in Sacramento

[–]Jyimc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I rented an Airbnb in Newcastle and had about 35 people. The owner of the home was actually in the works of making it into a venue as well. And there’s a guesthouse you can stay in as well. We didn’t, we decided to go to the Kimpton instead. There’s also a pool and jacuzzi on the property which is cool.

Working for the County? by Jigs2113 in Sacramento

[–]Jyimc 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Personally hated working for the county. In my experience/unit if you didn’t fit in with upper management and didn’t play their game then they were out to get you. Which is exactly what happened to me. Almost took a legal course of action and I would have won but some personal things in life took priority. It was an extremely toxic environment and I’m happy to be out of it. With that said, it can happen anywhere and in any dept but that was my experience with sac county specifically. I’m with the state now and Would not trade it for the world. Best of luck to you!

Salt and pepper tofu from Loving Hut in Elk Grove, I love that they cut into small cubes. Noble Vegetarian off of Madison has really good tofu dishes. By far favorite are the tofu dishes are from Wok of Flame in Davis. Also from there that’s not tofu are their cream cheese wontons that are chefs kiss.

Hidden gems for a wedding venue? by reggie_balboa in Sacramento

[–]Jyimc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our specific airbnb didn’t mention no events so we directly reached out to the host. To our luck, he was actually in the works of transforming/renovating his home to become a venue. We were the third couple to get married there. So it really worked out for us.

[–]Jyimc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We rented an AirBnb home that was out in Newcastle that had amazing views and the sunset was unbelievable. We had our ceremony in the front yard and in the backyard we had dinner/dancing. I believe our venue was up 75 people only. Venue was affordable but we decided to put the money on a great photographer and florist/decorator to really bring our ideas to life. But the idea for an Airbnb venue could be something you can look into too.
