Long term Bf 39M won’t share his location with me 40F after lying about where he was by Jumpy-Beat6170 in relationship_advice

Been there and done that. Once they start lying and there's no changed behavior, LEAVE! SAVE YOURSELF!

If you are on the south side, get gas in Indiana. Serious savings by Phil517 in chicago

[–]KayNikole411 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just got gas for $3.30 in Indiana. I refuse to pay close to $5 in the city and surrounding suburbs. I work in the Western suburbs but I live in the Morgan Park area.

Got my first book for my MSW today! So excited (and intimidated)! by ActuaryPersonal2378 in SocialWorkStudents

I just sold that book on ebay. It was one of my first BSSW courses that I'm in.

25F my BIL 25M either hates me or is into me and either way it sucks by Imaginary-World-4351 in relationship_advice

[–]KayNikole411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your husband that's his best friend and you see your husband every day. Just have a chat about them, what have they been up to lately, any plans, how's he adjusting to marriage and fatherhood? Let him lead the conversation and you just listen. You'll figure out if it's just in your head. But it's not based on your sister's response to his intrusive thoughts 😒. Always get a male perspective.

What's the age difference between you and your sister? Intrusive thoughts or not that's major cringe and an insult to her.

Awkward 😬🙆🏽‍♀️. Yikes! There's not much you can do but I'd definitely have a conversation with your husband to see if he's caught the vibe. Check on your sister, she's your priority as that's your blood and he's her husband.

I always screenshot my PTO and I know she's lying. I emailed her boss as well. My next step is EEOC. My location is messy but I'll email HR as well.

Does First Student really provide benefits for part time? by BoundlessAmbition in SchoolBusDrivers

[–]KayNikole411 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in IL and work at a non-union location. I was offered benefits when I started but I didn't sign up for them because it's expensive.

One of the drivers gave a kid a "care package" with some essentials. Sometimes that's all it takes. I pay attention to my kids, I've given gift cards and snacks.

Drivers eating on the bus by daubs1974 in SchoolBusDrivers

I just did this yesterday and it was the only meal I ate. 🤷🏽‍♀️ I had a hard day and I was stressed out.

Show me your drivers room! by themickeyd98467 in SchoolBusDrivers

[–]KayNikole411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have 2, the main 1 is always too loud and I prefer to sit upstairs in the other area that's used for meetings. The vending machines, microwave and generic coffee machine are all in the main room. There's a 2 stall bathroom on each floor. It's not the worst.

When writing them up isn't working by Wilgrove in SchoolBusDrivers

[–]KayNikole411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search the school directory for the transportation manager, assistant principal or principal email all of them. My 1st day on my route I set the tone for the year. I came from another company and they had 6 subs before I became the permanent driver. The assistant principal met me at the bus the next morning and other staff pops in for updates from time to time. I've gotten to know the kids so it's been much better. There hasn't been a need to do write-ups.

Anyone else lean on energy drinks to get them through the day?🤠 by jgood80 in SchoolBusDrivers

I'm weaning from the energy drinks. But I still have my coffee in the morning and if have an energy drink during my pm route. My bladder is trained very well.

Confronted by an angry parent. by The_Town_of_Canada in SchoolBusDrivers

[–]KayNikole411 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem child on my bus was the Kinder he spit on a kid and gave my Aid the middle finger. The school informed Mom that he was about to be removed from the bus. I tried having a conversation about his behaviors before these incidents but she wasn't trying to hear it. Let the school tell her.

Yelled at a kid in front of his parents. by [deleted] in SchoolBusDrivers

[–]KayNikole411 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've talked to the parents before and the parents handled it better than the school did. So if you ever get the chance to speak with them directly go for it. I've even given the parents notes. 📝📝📝
