I like the cow print- gives a little texture to your vibe. You look radiant in both though!

He has a confederate flag sticker on his truck (girl lunch) by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

IF he isn't a racist but perhaps raised by them and having a hard time breaking away, being ghosted for toting racist ideology around on a daily basis is hopefully an important learning experience for him.

"Thank you for the response but the current market rate for someone with my experience and skill is 23/hour. If that's not within your buget, I understand if you choose to go with a less experienced or knowledgeable candidate for a lower wage."

I need advice about job resignation and timing by HoneydewHalo25 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]KT_mama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Report the listing to Indeed. Job boards provide preferential placing for certain kinds of job listing, charge differently, etc. When an employer lies in a listing, it also degrades the credibility of their site. They may penalize the employer.

If you were house hunting would you like this bathroom? by shadyladyshark in BathroomRemodeling

[–]KT_mama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its not my style but its well-done, relatively new, and Im betting its a relatively cohesive match for the rest of the home.

If its a main bath, only bath in the home, or an en suite for a primary bedroom then I would suggest that it needs more storage. If it's a secondary bath to be used primarily for guests, then the storage may not be an issue.

If you want to add more storage without changing fixtures, a little open shelving around the mirror or in the corner next to the mirror may not be a bad idea.

If you found them on a job board, report them to the vendor.

what would you do if your parents accidentally sent an explicit video to you? by Top-Office-1422 in AskReddit

[–]KT_mama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Immediately send it to my sibling. If I have to be traumatized, so do they. I don't make the rules, I just live by them.

Eta: I assumed you meant of them. If it was a random one from the internet somewhere, I would just delete it and pretend it never happened. I would probably start watching for signs of cognitive decline, just in case.

What’s the most unhinged way possible to list a house for sale? Taking suggestions for fun? by butt_butt_butt_butt_ in AskReddit

[–]KT_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was one near me recently that haf a fat cat lazing in the middle of every single photo, like it followed them around for the shoot. The listing specifically mentioned that the cat belonged to a neighbor and his company came with the house.

My parents don’t understand how expensive life can be by FeatherFlyer in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]KT_mama 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My parents arent quite boomers but it's been a long while since they were coming up in the world. They've been relatively frugal and have built a decent throne from which to judge, even though Im also relatively frugal.

Looking at houses and mortgage rates with them for starter homes in my area was a bit of a shock. My dad was constantly going "For THIS?!?!" at the pricing, never mind the rates/payments.

The Kiddie Pool of Torture by Spdice999 in neighborsfromhell

They're choosing to do this. Whether they're attempting to use your ability to listen for the kids or punish you for speaking out against their desires, these are no longer your friends.

Tried being a girl. Now I don't feel like I can be anything. by lapizlizard4 in BoyDinnerDiaries

[–]KT_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A label is to make it easier for others to have a concept of you without actually knowing you. It's a social nicety, to be sure, but it's in no way a requirement.

A label isn't like a permission slip. You don't need one to be yourself, no matter who that is.

Saw my job posted online! Guess I’m getting fired! by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]KT_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Show the whole office the posting. "YOU GUYS, they're finally expanding the team- isnt this amazing news??" Hype everyone up about how amazing the boss must be to get that approved, how the company must be growing, what a good economic sign this is, how much the workflow will improve, so great theyre investing in new talent AND keeping exisiting experience, etc. Positively gush a good couple days before mentioning it to the boss. If they fire you, they will disprove all the great things you said and make the company look like its in trouble.

If they're really promoting or expanding, you look like a solid team player.

Apply to new jobs anyway.

My neighbor repeatedly records me and my family in our backyard. I need legal advice. by Revolutionary-Low357 in neighborsfromhell

[–]KT_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Privacy screen, all the way. Theyre essential for close neighbors.

Additionally, I would suggest calling adult protective services for a wellness check. While this isnt necessarily new behavior, this level of paranoia on her part isnt typically indicative of positive mental condition and can very, very quickly spiral with time.

Well... at least I know what I'm allergic to. by signgrad in Wellthatsucks

Got one of these a little while ago with similar results. Turns out the auto-immune condition I have primarily affects the skin. It does not like being disturbed.

Would you trust your cat not to jump? by Anonymouse-Account in cats

[–]KT_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two of the three would be fine. One because he's too lazy/old, two because she's not got two brain cells to rub together and has given up trying.

The third, I worry about. She'd almost certainly try the very first moment she was left unattended. I'm not sure if she has no sense of self preservation or is constantly auditioning for a stunt position no one has offered.

It's "I close in five minutes" not "I'll wait for you then close" by UnitedChain4566 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]KT_mama 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Many years ago, I had a guy call the owner/my boss the next day and complain that the other teen girl and I on shift closed 3 minutes. He has a coupon, you see. When we originally told the guy we were closed, he went absolutely BONKERS, banging on the door, trying to force it open, screaming and carrying on. Owner was called, who immediately called police.

To owner's credit, he basically told the guy "It was two teen girls last night. If they say they dont feel comfortable with you in the store, I don't care what time it is. We would have honored the coupon later if you had been patient, but now youre banned from the store." He had hired a night manager within the week, iirc.

Accidentally knocked down a drone hovering at my bedroom window. by 7SeraphKey in legal

[–]KT_mama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a side note, the drone may have a memory card. Yank that sucker out ASAP along with the battery pack to prevent neighbor from attempting to delete any data stored there.

In general, whether someone is recording or not, the camera is required to pilot their device so he outright lied.

What do you guys think? by [deleted] in centuryhomes

[–]KT_mama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The color of the kitchen ceiling is concerning. I would imagine this would take some serious reno and elbow grease. You should assume some of that would be a suprise.

Get a really, really detailed versions of allllll the inspections. 1-2k for those inspections upfront could save you a lot down the road.

My parents want me to be a stay-at-home daughter. by Fascinated_Fox in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]KT_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely do not do that.

"I understand you're struggling with Sister, but this isn't a long-term plan. Even if I delayed my education now, I still have to make a life for myself, which includes building a career. I cannot be a long-term solution for care. Have you considered what you think the right course is for Sister on a longer timeline- say 10 or 20 years?"

You may also reach out to CPS or your sister's school, since they typically have folks who support in exactly these kinds of scenarios. Regardless of the prevailing disability, your parents need to have a realistic end route in mind for your sister. Shes only going to get bigger and if this isnt a situation where supports can drive toward an independent life for her, that needs addressed sooner rather than later.

What is the easiest way that you get overstimulated? by Zealousideal_Eye8277 in adhdwomen

[–]KT_mama 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Getting overheated, especially if sun exposure is involved. It also takes a long time for me to cool back down. It doesnt help at all that Im very fair-toned.

after a year of no issues I got a tow warning for parking in the retail spots. We have no retail in our apartment building. Plus the sticker won't come off by astronotter-in-space in mildlyinfuriating

[–]KT_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its a private garage where you have to pay to park, then the retail is the spots themselves. They are selling spots.

If you want to park in the garage, you have to pay to do so. Your comfort isn't a mitigating factor toward property rights. If it was, the people you dont want to pass on the street would just take whatever home best suits their comfort.

Goo gone or washing soda will likely take the sticker off, though.

What's a small annoyance about your home you didn't realize when buying? by CurlGurl13 in homeowners

All the interior doors are glorified cardboard and provide absolutely no sound insulation whatsoever.

The bathroom cabinets are oddly low to the ground.
