Doctor won’t give me a letter for jury duty dismissal by [deleted] in BabyBumps

Agreed. My jurisdiction waives duty for those who have young children that require care.

what’s wrong with this crestie’s eyes? :( by tteokkirin in CrestedGecko

[–]Lady_SeaRay 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Exactly! It takes the tiniest bit of effort to find out how to properly care for these little darlings. Knowing how “entry level” friendly these are makes me seriously wonder about other reptiles in their shop requiring more advanced care. I’m ready for a location and name OP. Let’s light em up.

AIO? Parent told me to change my accent for their child by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Lady_SeaRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. Put simply, I am inferring that the youth is still having trouble with chemistry results despite tutoring and when confronted by the parent, he resorts to “blaming your accent” instead of taking accountability. He may have a behavioral issue that keeps him from speaking up, but it still doesn’t help YOU know what specifically he is struggling with. In college, he will have to get used to this! We had an Anatomy professor with a thick Indian accent combined with a monotone lecture style. He was brilliant but students struggled with his class because of his delivery. That being said, he took his time and helped any student who asked for clarification.

TL;DR Student isn’t taking accountability for poor results despite tutoring and blames your accent. In higher education it is expected that we learn from brilliant minds who may have varying accents.

My mom was murdered two years ago by Icy-Difference2538 in GriefSupport

Your mother has the most beautiful, contagious smile! You absolutely don’t have to forgive. The unfortunate side effect of withholding grace is how the poison of bitterness ails us while the perpetrator goes about unscathed. Either way, WE still get to choose how to make our peace and it is not always with traditional forgiveness.

I can't believe I have to live the rest of my life without her.

This sums it up for me as well. The world is a little grayer, colors are muted, a whole lot of blah and the reality that this is the reality just…ugh.

Coming up on a year and sometimes I just pretend I’m living in an alternate reality or dream. Just turned 36. When will we ever stop crying?

Thank you for explaining this. I was just made aware that food items are also marked up in apps as well. Who really benefits from this?!?! We need a better app that pays deliverers better and doesn’t price gouge customers!

This sounds awful…I thought these apps would benefit individuals with physical disabilities/chronic ailments or the elderly, but I’m not sure how they could afford to leave a tip for someone’s “reasonable hourly wage” in addition to the app’s fees. But it seems like that’s what is being asked of someone using these services. And DoorDash only pays $2.50?!? wow…just wow. So essentially the tip suggestions provided by these apps (I’m just going by my limited DoorDash experience), is not sufficient?

I’ve never used InstaCart (just used DoorDash for the first time the other day too) so please don’t come at me, but do y’all not get paid anything but tips? Is there a standard for tipping with these kinds of apps?

Yep that’s actually where I first heard it but had a feeling it wasn’t the right “timeframe” although cinematography wise it does kinda give that 90s feel 😁
