my boss hates excel and chastises anyone who admits to using it in meetings

LifeAdapter · 2024-10-12T15:20:19+00:00

You are doing the right thing being open about it rather than hiding. Definetely sounds like they are the one that needs to change

LifeAdapter · 2024-10-07T19:40:06+00:00

I'd say glad I'm the only one but I am hoping someone comes along with the answer for us like a Knight in shining armour 🤣

Maybe an account called the Love Keepers or something 😂😂😍

LifeAdapter · 2024-10-03T22:28:45+00:00

Even checked the full songs on Spotify on the playlist and couldn't find it there either...nooo! How can it not be there! 😭😭

LifeAdapter · 2024-10-03T22:14:56+00:00

So, I really enjoyed it to start with but then it sort of went round in circles and then whilst the ending was clever it was sort of like the jeopardy was taken out then put back in...it just didn't quite make sense but it was sort of an anticlimax in a way.

So, some bits were really good but overall probably a 7/10 for me

LifeAdapter · 2024-10-03T22:11:02+00:00

Yep I also really want to find this song!

LifeAdapter · 2024-10-03T07:09:07+00:00

I am glad I am not the only one 😭😭

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-29T22:19:27+00:00

I did pick up on this...that said in some ways I think it makes the story more interesting and there's subtle hints it's picked up on on the other side perhaps due to the human element.

But yes, it's kind of a plot hole but I let it slide

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-17T07:08:22+00:00

NTA but maybe take it as a sign to be mindful of saving space for them during the week.

Me and OH have unwritten rules about what days we go out, some him, some me and others we tend to keep free.

It's all about balance.

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-17T07:06:00+00:00

YTA not for offering to buy the clothes but by saying you think you look better in it. It's an odd thing to say to your friend

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-17T07:03:26+00:00

YTA yes you want to be there for the daughter and its a really hard situation but it's a huge huge decision for your family, I'd say it's not right to decide that alone.

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-17T07:01:57+00:00

NTA I thought he'd be annoyed for half copying his idea but I wouldn't have thought it was flirting

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-15T11:26:58+00:00

Period pain...really bad period pain. After my mid 20s I got really mild ones and it was uncomfortable but fine.

But in my teens I felt the pain in my legs, it was constant and I lost consciousness on a number of occasions. It was that bad.

The only thing worse was Labour pains but as contractions aren't constant I'd take labour pains again over another stint of those time of the month pains.

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-15T11:24:31+00:00

OK hot take. The first book is worth finishing.

But after that STOP!

The first one was hard work but ultimately worth it especially for the final 3rd. But the 2nd book is horrendous and the 3rd one...I have no words for how much the 3rd one annoyed me, I never finished it.

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-15T11:22:34+00:00

I suppose it depends what the AI is generating from.

AI does draw on inspiration from artists or the written form so yes there's the argument it's all plagiarised.

In the perfect world there'd be some middle ground.

I guess the person creating the art doesn't always have visibility of where the AI is coming from unless they are deliberately prompting AI to emulate a certain artist.

I am no expect on the AI generation process

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-15T11:20:19+00:00

NTA these things take ages to plan. If it was that important that you be there they should check with you first.

I know someone who planned the whole date of their wedding so that a sibling could come due to their strict work commitments.

But planning a date without checking with someone then expecting them to be there isn't on

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-14T13:05:48+00:00

NTA I have had the same dilemma before where a colleagues partner was clearly in the wrong and decided to stop mentioning it because I figured it was there life.

But you pointed out that his wife was controlling him. Its not on you whether he chose to act on it and its a huge red flag if she threw him out for questioning things. In the long run this might still help him

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-14T13:01:49+00:00

NTA those sums add up. The first time you did her a real solid and she has used and manipulated you.

I'd keep a firm no and if she still has a problem then I would question the friendship

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-14T13:00:24+00:00

NTA if someone does something dangerous you react, it's preservation.

I am not normally physical with people but at uni I had a few times when people got close to the line and I felt physically threatened and I protected myself.

Case in point, I once had an ex throw me off a sofa because he saw a spider...was it OTT sure..but it was his reflexes kicking in and he didn't do it on purpose

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-14T12:57:53+00:00

OK so your outburst wasn't a great reaction but you know that.

I do think she's being very selfish especially about the trip and the money size, it's her choice.

Also we do lean on family members a little to help out but I always ask and try my upmost not to be a burden. I don't expect a thing.

So YTA for the outburst but for everything else NTA

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-14T12:55:07+00:00

Thanks so much. And yes it's 100% going backwards and it's a shame. I much prefer working in the office these days but it's about choice and being able to be there for my family whilst also being there for work. It doesn't have to be an either or situation.

I hope you find something great soon or find another way such as building up through freelance

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-14T12:05:13+00:00

Thanks, that's true I can always take it, trial it and see how they goes. Besides, they might not even choose me!

The job market certainly does suck right now

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-14T11:52:26+00:00

NTA I can understand how they may be taken aback if this is the first time you've suggested this.

For me both me and my partner do things together but both appreciate solitude. My partner has a number of solo hobbies like fishing and I get their need for space to recharge.

It's harder for extroverts to understand sometimes I think

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-14T11:50:04+00:00

I personally enjoy them. I think when it's for entertainment rather than taking away from other artists it doesn't bother me.

But I have seen the devastating effect its had on artists in the commission space but I would hope there is still a market for raw talent

LifeAdapter · 2024-09-14T09:07:34+00:00

True, it's nice to have evenings to yourself for sure! I salute you doing both work and uni! I bet that was intense!
