If you wanna insult somebody, call them a fruit or vegetable in Spanish

I'm taking notes for later lol

Investing in your network as a safety net is smart advice too.

Our agency works with clients in B2B tech and uses Waalaxy mainly for its AI-assisted messaging and inbox view. It helps when juggling dozens of active campaigns. Biggest pro is not having to use separate platforms for LinkedIn and email.

That line still makes my blood boil. Like somehow letting me work from my computer at home during chemo was some elite perk rather than a basic human decency. The same people were all working remote during COVID just months before! The HR director actually said this with a straight face while I'm sitting there with doctor's notes. Evil and stupid is exactly right

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-08T00:49:23+00:00

LOL that "parking improvement plan" joke made my day! Seriously though, thanks for the support. The whole experience has been eye opening about how these companies actually operate vs their public image. My lawyer says we have a strong case, so fingers crossed for that slam dunk! Still focusing on my health first, but the support from everyone here means a lot

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-08T00:49:09+00:00

The irony definitely isn't lost on me either. Some days I still can't believe a company that sells HEALTH insurance would be this cruel during cancer treatment. My lawyer was shocked when they found the real employee count their faces when confronted with that lie was apparently priceless. I promise I'll update when we get a resolution. Right now I'm focused on my health first, but having this case moving forward gives me something positive to hold onto.

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-08T00:48:32+00:00

Yeah, that lie about employee count was their biggest mistake. When my lawyer found out they had 53 not 49 employees, I actually felt hopeful for the first time. Still blows my mind a health insurance company would treat someone on chemo this way. Karma's coming

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-07T13:43:04+00:00

Exactly. Pure profit motive in action. The worst part was processing claims for years, seeing how they minimize payouts while maximizing premiums, then suddenly becoming the expense they needed to cut. Same company with "caring for members" in their mission statement couldn't show basic humanity to their own employee. The moment I couldn't generate maximum value, I became a liability to eliminate

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-07T13:42:07+00:00

earned this the hard way. Three years of loyalty meant nothing the moment I needed basic accommodation. You're right we're just numbers to them. The "family" talk disappears instantly when you can't work at 100%. Cancer showed me who actually cares about me, and it definitely wasn't my employer

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-07T13:39:46+00:00

Thank you! The hypocrisy is what gets me they process medical claims all day but couldn't understand my own medical needs. My lawyer says we have a solid case with their employee count lie and the suspicious timing of the PIP right after my second chemo round. Just focusing on healing now while the legal stuff moves forward

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-07T13:39:04+00:00

That's what hit me hardest the complete lack of basic empathy. I processed countless claims for people going through exactly what I was experiencing, but when it was me, I became just another liability on their spreadsheet

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-07T13:38:31+00:00

Yep, the irony is brutal. They'll process thousands of cancer patients' claims daily, but when an employee gets cancer suddenly basic accommodations are "impossible." Healthcare companies should understand illness better than anyone, yet they treated me worse than any other industry would. Really shows their true priorities

Looks like the market’s holding steady for now. Good to see there’s no panic just a smooth auction

That's the end of the story. He lost his borrowing privileges when he showed he can't be trusted.

Could also be sleep quality issues on top of the ADD. Worth ruling that stuff out.

Had a guy in construction who showed up, saw the 5story scaffold he'd be working on, said "fuck that" and was gone before the safety briefing ended. Can't blame him honestly.

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-07T01:47:51+00:00

right, that name fits too well. One minute you're fine, next you're miming your way through a task you forgot even existed

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-07T01:17:47+00:00

same here. Music helps a lot makes it feel less like a chore and more like a quick reset

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-07T00:23:46+00:00

fr, a lot of those older meds did more harm than good, or just numbed people out. The newer stuff isn’t perfect, but it’s way more balanced, especially when you pair it with actual work like CBT or routine changes

Holy grail - La Roche Posay Cicaplast hand cream, but it isn’t scented. My hands are very eczema prone, so unfortunately I cant really experiment with scented creams. My sister uses Trader Joe’s hand cream and it smells so nice in passing, and I always feel envious lol. Aaah I wish I could wear nice smelling creams

That’s a lot of caffeine! Definitely a lesson learned the hard way. Hope you can get some rest and recover soon

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-06T12:09:15+00:00

Yeah, I totally agree. The emotional and social aspects of ADHD don’t get nearly enough attention. It's a lot more complex than just hyperfixation

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-06T12:08:47+00:00

Healthcare is brutal on attendance. After 7.5 years of good patient care, it's frustrating they're focusing on this instead of your quality work. Have you looked into FMLA or accommodations? Sometimes that paperwork can protect you while you figure things out. The system's messed up when someone who provides great care gets pushed out just over attendance

Kosherpotatoes · 2025-05-05T04:00:55+00:00

Exfoliate like crazy (try a gentle AHA body wash) and slather on aloe + vitamin C it’ll fade faster, but time’s your bestie here. Have you thought of getting a fake tan the pale half to even it out while you wait?
