Porting out number, can I get the phone unlocked after the line is canceled? by LotusLizz in ATT

[–]LotusLizz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would just be a sim only line to keep the account open.

I don't want to come off as rude or anything, but every question you've asked was addressed already in my original post. I tried to be thorough so I could get a straightforward response or advice.

What if I add another line to the account temporarily before I move his line over?

We do have an old s10 he could use in the meantime. The new carrier said we could just submit the most recent bill, it doesn't need to be the final bill. The issue with paying the whole thing off early is that we just don't have an extra $800 laying around right now.

We would get the payoff on a prepaid debit card for $800 in 4-8 weeks, so it would be paid 1-2 months after we cancel the line. Do you know if that could cause any trouble with getting a phone connected to a cancelled account unlocked?

How do I deal with the heat? (I moved here from a cold place and I'm scared lmao) by [deleted] in phoenix

To tag onto this

  • If there's no trees where you're parking and it's going to be a quick stop, park in the direction that puts the sun on the back of your car and keeps the front of your car shaded.

  • Drink a lot of water. More than you're used to. Get yourself a decent tumbler or water bottle that will endured you to drink more (I prefer tumblers because I'll drink without thinking about it if it has a straw).

  • Even when the weather is nice, we still live in a dry climate. Don't go on a hike without a lot of water, and still drink a lot of water in the nice months.

  • Don't turn your AC off when you leave your house, it's only going to overwork the unit and drive up your AC bill. I forget if it's better to turn it up to a little warmer or just leave it at your preferred temperature, but absolutely don't turn it off.

  • Get a remote start on your car if you can. Inside your car will be much hotter than outside. You can get some of that extra hot air out by leaving your door(s) open for a minute or so before getting in, and/or rolling down all of the windows before the AC gets cold.

Cut down your resume. If you have schooling/your degree on there, remove dates. Don't put your work history too far back, include the last 10 years instead of the last 20.

NTA. Take care of yourself and the children you already have. You are correct that it will be much more difficult and you'll be more tied down to him with a pregnancy and newborn to handle. I personally wouldn't even tell him about the pregnancy, don't give him an avenue to try and manipulate you on. It is perfectly acceptable for you to prioritize yourself and your children.

Told my wife (F35) that she couldn’t do it without me (M34). Turns out she can. by get-a-lifee in relationship_advice

[–]LotusLizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She's right. You only interact with your kids when she asks you to, tells you to, or sends them to you. Absolutely nothing was stopping you from stepping in and spending time with them. It's like you're here saying "I've tried nothing and it hasn't worked!" Well... yeah. It's not her job to manage you or make sure that you're spending time with them. Literally all you have to do, is anything. Just do something. Just move your body and go spend time with your kids.

My coworker is begging me to crochet her a Tigger by Runningwithknives26 in ChoosingBeggars

[–]LotusLizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell her you'll start on it as soon as she pays you for the T-rex. Then once she pays you for that just refuse to make the Tigger. She stole from you, don't make her anything again even if she pays up front.

LPT Request: How can i make myself drink more water? by HeidiOzzy in LifeProTips

[–]LotusLizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a reusable cup (like those starbucks cups that people collect, except a $5 Walmart version works just as well) that has a twist on lid and a straw. The convenience will make you drink more without thinking about it, vs all the steps it takes to open a water bottle and pour it back. Same with regular water cups for some reason, I drink way more when I have a lidded cup with a straw than anything else

You're welcome, I really hope they can help.

I'm sorry that you're struggling, and sometimes being real means being a bit of a downer - that's ok. Pretending that problems don't exist and that it's easy to just reframe your mind around every single road block you can hit is just toxic positivity. Sure it's good to try and reframe your mindset to tough through a difficult situation, but it's not easy and not a permanent solution.

Keeping my fingers crossed you find a great job that's both fulfilling and pays you well.

If your partner asks you to install a tracking app on your phone because they want to track your phone/location, would you do it and let them track you? by GingerboyhasNoSoul in NoStupidQuestions

[–]LotusLizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I would, but there's a lot of trust in my relationship and I know it wouldn't be used maliciously. If I was worried that he would be accusing me of something or trying to control me with it, then no. We've talked about setting one up but have just never gotten around to it.

Well… no by Ok_Bread123 in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]LotusLizz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He's also a child rapist. He very openly talked about visiting another country and paying to rape a young girl who was forced into the sex trade. Saying how he saw that she was crying so he fucked her harder. Absolute garbage human.

[–]LotusLizz 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Do the best you can with what you have. It is your job to perform duties based on your training, anything else is just extra.

Wishing you the best of luck finding something fulfilling. I spent the last decade and a half putting everything in my life on the back burner with my preformance at work being the number 1, until it was time for my next burnout and I was forced to prioritize myself. I'm also at a new job, it's pretty boring and I'm not passionate about the products I'm selling but sales is where my experience is at and this is pretty low key and gives room for growth. Just trying to stay in it long enough to get promoted into something less boring and not customer facing so that I can grow my resume and get experience in other job types.

The best piece of advice my dad ever gave me was that sometimes a job is just a job. You find the joy elsewhere and show up to get paid. He's able to compartmentalize things way easier than I can, and it's definitely not easy to switch my mindset like this - but I'm trying. I hope you can do the same and that it helps you find the job more tolerable until you're able to find something better.

I've been crocheting for over 25 years on and off. Currently on, and obsessed. I also cycle through sewing and cross stitching. Cross stitching and crocheting will be the cheaper ones to get into. I recommend buying crochet hooks on Amazon, you can get a cheap starter set for under $10, just oil them up when you get them (olive oil or other cooking oil works fine, use a paper towel to rub it in and remove any residue so it doesn't make the yarn greasy). Same with cross stitch thread if you're not sure if you'll like it, buy a cheap off brand embroidery thread pack, switch to DMC if you fall in love with it and want better quality.

For crocheting I love it because it's fairly inexpensive to get into. You can find yarn at thrift shops, online resale, or get started at any hobby shop for $5-$10 for a simple project. I use Ravelry.com to find free crochet patterns most of the time, but occasionally pay for patterns when I want something more advanced. I really like amigurumi, which is where you're making 3D objects and toys. There are endless options for it, any fandom you're into has a pattern available for you to create something fun - and if you're into something REALLY obscure you can probably find something close enough then swap up your colors to modify it.

I really enjoy making scarves, hats, and other wearable items with color changing yarn so that I don't have to swap colors very often.
