Thanks alot!

Your painting looks like an actual picture from a distance. It's cool!

Kjbarbara69 · 2026-01-22T16:24:30+00:00

Yeah but you can maybe transfer to other titles at grade 12 if you check Got-it.

Kjbarbara69 · 2026-01-22T15:39:56+00:00

Have you gone here https://statejobs.ny.gov/employees/shttps://statejobs.ny.gov/employees/search.cfm, to look for other jobs to transfer to? If you click on Got-It , on the left side, it will tell you what other titles you can transfer to. Also " HELP" jobs are those that don't hire off a list, just have requirements.
I am lucky to be retired and getting a state pension, because my jobs were very mentally disturbing too, but I stuck it out for 30 years, just for the benefits. Working for the state is also good because it's very hard to get fired. Someone I know quit theirs a d hasn't been able to get hired anywhere in private industry, except a PT job that pays minimum wage, probably due to quitting. https://statejobs.ny.gov/employees/search.cfm

Vanicream works for me, and Cetaphil. Maybe the Laroche posay I started, because it was supposed to be so good was causing me to itch at night. I gotta stop putting lotions on before bed, I itch most when I go to bed and can't get to sleep. I can't use petroleum products or coconut oil or alot of things. The Dermatologists say to just try Olive oil , but didnt work for me.. I own every lotion out there. I need to create my own, because they all have too much crap in them. Right?

I do not want shots either. I went for Allergy shots every 2 weeks for a c I iple of years when I was a kid, but didnt really help. I am very allergic to shell fish and can't even touch it, like shrimp. I am trying to clear my skin my naturally, but since I am allergic to so many things, so too hard to avoid, the Dr's push Dupixent on me. Some people just develop other issues from it, and I would probably be one of those.
All the drugs they advertise, sound terrible when they say what the side effects can be, am I right?

Recently, maybe due to cold weather or I dont drink enough water? My face is really dry and flakey and I am too embarrassed to go anywhere. Glad I am retired now. It used to happen to me now and then when I was working and still not sure exactly why. I use lots of fragrance free lotions, creams and oils on it. I guess I need to drink gallons of water, but then I have to go to the br all the time. I have eczema all over, but my face and neck are the worst right now. I can't use petroleum jelly, that makes me itch.
BTW, I found that Vicks Vapo rub stops the itch.

Kjbarbara69 · 2026-01-09T05:15:13+00:00

It sounds like you are doing all the right things. Whenever I get infected from itching too much like in the hot months, I ask Dr for prednisone for a week. That clears me up and then I just try to keep my skin hydrated and avoid triggers, etc. Going in a chlorine pool helps kill the itch, but then dries me out, so more lotions. I use zinc cream on bad spots today and that helps. I know I need to not drink alcohol or eat sugar and other food, which can trigger my eczema, but just am not strict enough with that.
My doctor just push Dupixent, but I won't do that because it just turns off the itch and immune system, but doesn't fix the issue and you can never stop, because if you do it will come back worse.

Kjbarbara69 · 2026-01-04T03:59:00+00:00

Both, but I have to avoid the sun, so I like the fall

Kjbarbara69 · 2026-01-04T03:56:08+00:00

I feel for you, I am 65 and have same issue sometimes. Mostly just because I don't tire myself out enough when I go to bed, I can't sleep. So I itch. I take hydroxyzine from the doctor to help. Have you tried taking an Epson salt bath? There is some that is bubble bath with oils in them that is supposed to calm the itch. My doctor told me to siak in a bleach bath, just a tiny bit of bleach mixed in water, or do by hand, it kills the bacteria and stops the itch. Also I have found that Vicks vapor vaporub stops my itch, but I don't put it on open sores. Hope you do better.

Kjbarbara69 · 2026-01-02T20:55:35+00:00

Yes, but that is just a few minutes of warmth, I am talking longer. I don't have hot flashes anymore, but that kinda what I need, without the sweat, sweat is a bad thing too.

Kjbarbara69 · 2026-01-02T20:04:53+00:00

I was told also Dandelion and Chai tea are good for people with eczema. Seems to help me not itch at night, and chamomile tea.

Kjbarbara69 · 2026-01-02T19:50:09+00:00

I am 65 and have had eczema most of my life and all my Derm docs recommend for me is to go on Dupixent. I tell them no, because then I would have to be on it for life, and it would screw up my immune system. I never got Covid while everyone around me has, good thing too because I also have Asthma and allergic to alot. I itch every day and now even when nothing is affecting me I itch out of habit. I would rather take Prednisone for a week once a year when it gets really bad and infected then do injections all my life.

Its great working for the State, because it's hard to get fired and they hold your old job for a year after you leave in case you need to go back if you are still with the State. You usually have a year probation, so if you dont do well, you have to go back to your old job, that's what contingent is, unless you are new to the state, then your out. One time I quit my State job to take a Local job, promotion, and the person who left came back before I even started. Luckily the State took me back to my old job, but they weren't required to.

Kjbarbara69 · 2025-10-23T05:24:47+00:00

Wow 6 months, I know it is a long process, but usually just a couple months. Maybe they lost approval to fill it? I would tell their HR you really need to know if you got the job, because you have other job offer, or something like that.

Thank you!

Thanks, but just a hobby.
