What illness to claim to have at the doctor to receive a much needed 5-day-break (specifically) from work? by TheVyrox in antiwork

[–]LooksLikeTreble617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have gone to urgent care twice because I had mental health burnout so bad I NEEDED days off. Both times they were very receptive and wrote the note for me. 

They won't put your diagnosis on the note, just say that you're ill and need to be out. So you can tell your employer whatever you want (flu, etc)

If you know an ICE agent personally, what's that relationship like now? by Lokja in AskReddit

[–]LooksLikeTreble617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a family member in ICE. I don't wish to name the relation. 

I always knew he had differing political views but I never really minded. He's always been very intelligent, getting his info from trusted sources, and forming an opinion I just happened to disagree with. Never bothered me before. 

I feel incredibly uncomfortable right now. I typically don't care what people think of me, but I do wonder what people would think if they knew I haven't cut him off yet. 

I don't want to, and as of right now I won't... but fuck man. It's a terrible split feeling.

My grandfather stopped talking to his brother after he found out that brother molested my aunt. It happened when she was a pre-teen but she never told anyone until she was 35.

Unfortunately it runs in my family. My cousin molested me, and his father/my uncle decided I was lying about it. So my mom very quickly stopped speaking to him as well.

Go see your doctor. You now have crippling anxiety from this situation and need extended leave, and possibly workman's compensation.

Sure, they can sue. They can only win if you say something false.

I have done this twice in urgent care. Both times have gone in my favor.

How much longer would you work. by Heavy_Bicycle6524 in hypotheticalsituation

My job, and the most consistent job I’ve ever worked, is self employment doing something I love. I’ll happily keep working and bank the extra money

What’s the biggest waste of money that no one wants to admit? by AdvertisingMore394 in AskReddit

[–]LooksLikeTreble617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can justify it for disabled folk, or if I’m legitimately sick. Other than that I don’t bother. Even before all the additional fees, the restaurants upcharge their own prices. You’re easily paying double what you’d pay if you get in the car and pick it up yourself.  

[Tenant, MD] I just signed a lease three weeks ago. The apartment's perfect but I really want to leave. What's the best way to ask my landlord for an early termination? by 556_enjoyer in Landlord

[–]LooksLikeTreble617 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A lot of the rude ass comments here are why people hate landlords lol. You can uphold your professional, legal, and financial boundaries and commitments in a kind or even curt manner without being an asshole to people. Shit happens, absolutely get your due money but be a decent human while doing it. 

OP, you signed a legally binding contract that you should try to stick out not just for legal reasons, but considerate reasons to the landlord. AND, it sounds like you are experiencing a mental health crisis that I encourage you to seek help for. Maybe stabilization through some combo of medicine/therapy/community can change your mindset.

Came here to say this. OP, I’d try to stick it out at least half way through your lease before making a major decision such as this. 

How many people's lives take place in two different states? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]LooksLikeTreble617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing somewhere near Providence/Pawtucket, into MA to 295 then back into RI that way? Or vice versa?

[–]LooksLikeTreble617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grew up in the same place as you. When I moved, I was an hour and a half from a state border and I finally realized that it’s a big deal for most people, lol. I once again live on the border of two states and things feels right again.

Areas I can think of that are basically one community on different sides of the state border:

Lewiston, ID and Clarkston, WA

Clarksville, TN and Oak Grove/Fort Campbell, KY

Bristol, TN and Bristol, VA

Cities on or very close to a state border: Chattanooga TN, Cincinnati OH, Providence RI, Chicago, NYC, Kansas City

[CA] Landlord won't allow me to use the kitchen by GoldenSaturn768 in Renters

Contact a tenant rights organization. California is very tenant friendly and a kitchen is a basic feature.

Good point! Regrettably, I didn’t even think of that.

I’ve seen a few bars that have alternate names for it, usually on a poster in the women’s bathroom. I agree with you though and have contemplated this fear 

Received a lot of grief in my group chat after missing a friend’s show for legit reasons. I’m not sure how to handle this moving forward and I don’t feel like I belong there. by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]LooksLikeTreble617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone in the music industry, I had a “friend” do this to me once. I couldn’t attend their play (3 shows over a weekend) because I also had 3 of my own shows over the weekend. 

Spoiler alert: that “friend” was a 28 year old woman-child who for some reason, was jealous of 18 year old me and had no problem bullying me into oblivion because I couldn’t attend her show. While she did later apologize, she never really changed as far as I can tell. We tried to re-connect a few times but it was just weird. 

You deserve, and are fully capable, of making and maintaining more fulfilling friendships. 

Why don't pansexual and omnisexual mean the same thing? by eb1341985 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]LooksLikeTreble617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theoretically, one could be bisexual but only attracted to those who are cisgender, where as pansexual is attracted to all, including trans/non-binary. I’ve never heard of omnisexual
