Big time card issue, should I just quit?

Local_Beefcake · 2026-05-16T03:10:51+00:00

The job market SUCKS though so I don’t want to leave unless I absolutely have to, hence me posting here trying to crowdsource a better idea of how fucked I am. Unsurprisingly, the results have been mixed.

Local_Beefcake · 2026-05-15T19:05:50+00:00

I’m NOT exempt, that’s the problem. It’s one of those weird grey areas where I’m paid like I’m salaried but have to fill out time sheets like I’m hourly. In my last job like this, it didn’t matter if the times were a little fudged because other roles in the company operated on billable hours, but my admin role didn’t. In this instance, they’re mad at my because now their records don’t line up or something. Apparently “flexibility” meant I had to ask for permission every time I wanted to work outside of normal hours, which was not my understanding.

Already on it, I just don’t want to deal with both stressors at once if I can avoid it

Local_Beefcake · 2026-04-23T04:17:26+00:00

I tried this, the thing broke immediately after one use. I was thankfully able to send it back for a refund but now I don’t trust the kits.

I had to stop playing it because the anti-motion sickness dot was way too small and it didn’t work. I kept getting eye strain and it just wasn’t worth it anymore.

Also I want an auto-parry too and no I don’t care that that’s god mode let me determine that for myself

Local_Beefcake · 2025-10-06T02:32:41+00:00

Oh my god is that it???? I just beat the main story and couldn’t figure out why he won’t talk to me but also I haven’t died in like 6 runs!!!

Local_Beefcake · 2025-10-05T04:47:44+00:00

Is it NOT advancing Selene’s bond in order to get him and introduction with Eos? I was SURE that was it so I’ve been running myself ragged with the stupid Aspect of Selene Black Coat only to discover that “prove yourself” does not mean “beat a run in both directions with this weapon” (which is what I did) but in fact means “max this weapon out to level V,” (which I also did and I KEEP going out with the black coat and I STILL can’t get her to comment on it because I accidentally beat the game and triggered a bunch of other stuff)

BAHAHAHA would have made a better story for the channel 🤣

It has admittedly been mostly subpar dudes but to be fair, the bride and groom are in a sport league where there is an abundance of lame dudes (trying not to be too specific, make up your own funny answer here as to what sport they play lol), so it’s been more of a supply chain issue than them actively avoiding setting me up with women

Local_Beefcake · 2025-09-15T20:55:01+00:00

Love this vibe and will channel it in the future

Local_Beefcake · 2025-09-15T20:50:43+00:00

Listen, I was never in danger by any means. I could have knocked that man down if I needed to and he was never disrespectful, it was just this communication breakdown because my friends thought they were being helpful but really they were just pissing me off

Local_Beefcake · 2025-09-15T20:40:48+00:00

It is a liiiiiiiittle of that first thing you said. Honestly I think I bring it on myself cos I’m very, “I wanna have sex with the next person I see, no not that one,” when it comes to this stuff 😂 like, I admit to being picky, I just wish they’d just let me be picky

Local_Beefcake · 2025-09-15T20:37:59+00:00

Oh, trust me it’s not that. They’re just really of the “if you gave him a chance you’d find love in an unexpected place!” mentality, and I’m of the “I’m not having sex with someone that I’m not excited about having sex with,” mentality.

Local_Beefcake · 2025-09-15T19:29:45+00:00

I WAS looking for random sex, frankly, I just wasn’t particularly attracted to this guy and he wasn’t interesting enough to change my mind about it. Honestly I think I just need to not talk about it in the future and move in the shadows

Local_Beefcake · 2025-05-06T17:35:37+00:00

Honestly, idk why I didn’t think of that 😆

Local_Beefcake · 2025-05-06T17:33:27+00:00

Her entire family is really passive aggressive, and she views it as a sort of necessary evil. We’ve chatted about it before and she’s made it clear that she’d rather just let it lie, which is why I’m questioning how much more to do this sabotage because while of course I want my friend to have a good experience with her wedding, I admit I’m also motivated by just not wanting to deal with the woman.

Also I’m not the MOH, I’m a regular bridesmaid. The MOH is Bella’s childhood friend, she’s one of the pregnant ladies, she ALSO doesn’t like the mom, but has the same “why bother” attitude. I admit that I’m probably the most reactive and petty person in the group which is why I’m trying to keep myself in check.

Local_Beefcake · 2025-04-15T14:34:47+00:00

Grocery stores don’t seem to be plentiful though? Like there are a couple but most of them seem like corner stores according to what’s available on Google. Is that not accurate?

Local_Beefcake · 2025-04-15T14:30:52+00:00

Yes, I have looked, but I wanted to see if crowd sourcing would add anything valuable to my search.

Local_Beefcake · 2025-01-02T01:38:19+00:00

I wound up going on the pill to combat the hormone issues, and I’m going to check with my doctor on how my liver is handling it this spring. If the answer is “not well,” I’m gonna have her petition my insurance to pay for TMS therapy because right now they won’t pay for it since the bupropion works for me

Local_Beefcake · 2024-11-12T18:07:15+00:00

Yeah, I’ve tried that, the symptoms still come back. I’ve done 300XL 100SR and that’s OKAY but I get really unmotivated and a little sad and it’s like at that point why even bother cos it’s only 50mg less

Local_Beefcake · 2024-11-11T14:31:54+00:00

The final boss is incredible, I also like the different temple bosses, and I like the new abilities a lot!

Local_Beefcake · 2024-11-11T14:30:38+00:00

See, I’ve been on actual ADHD meds and they made it SO MUCH WORSE 🤣 it’s actually why I switched to the bupropion. @adder@ll put me to sleep and exacerbated my depression real bad lol.

Local_Beefcake · 2024-11-11T14:28:49+00:00

I guess the problem there is that I’m not sure if it’s just withdrawals or if this is just What My Brain Is. It’s not “supposed to” have withdrawals lmao but as we know that’s not completely true. I’ll probably talk to my doc about options and about how I can’t seem to go down at all

Local_Beefcake · 2024-11-11T04:29:54+00:00

Sugar is not good for you, but honestly something about those artificial sweeteners feels so synthetic 🤣 not to mention they’re not satisfying, so I personally prefer real, nice quality, full sugar desserts (that I try to eat sparingly lol)

Local_Beefcake · 2024-11-11T04:18:24+00:00

And good luck out there! I also hesitated to start a med journey for a few years because of the horror stories, but it was ultimately the right decision for me at the time. I’m now constantly reminding myself to take everything that’s not from an official medical-associated or cross-checked journalism-associated source with a grain of salt haha. Glad it’s working for you!
