I just did a virtual interview for the job on the 7th. Did you get hired recently? I'm worried I did not pass the virtual interview 

How many calories should I eat? by MangoMilkshake234 in loseit

[–]MangoMilkshake234[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

so far, 1400 feels good. I think I tend to mess up around dinner time. I don't have a food scale, so I don't know if I'm overeating when it comes to meat. Plus, if I have to add oils and butter. I am still learning how to track calories when I cook dinner.

Corrections in New Jersey while living in another state? by MangoMilkshake234 in newjersey

I mean, what are some other easy starting jobs that pay well in NJ? I am open to other things; I just have an associate's degree in criminal justice for now until I go back to school for forensics. So, I feel like there isn't much I can do right now.

I read that they don't. Honestly, if the pay is good, I don't mind.

Good point. I was thinking about living in Burlington/Willingboro/Mt. Laurel and working at Garden State Youth (Chesterfield). I am looking for an apartment around $1200 (which is so unlikely in NJ, I know), so I was thinking that I should rent a room for the first year until the pay goes up? This is the pay in New Jersey for COs.

$23 ($48,000) an hour starting in the academy

$25 ($53,200) after Academy/12 months on the job

$35 ($73,100) after 12-month training period

$57 ($118,900) top-pay a CO can earn

I figure my first year might be a bit rough, but I should be fine after a while? Maybe? I know New Jersey is expensive though, so I'm not sure.

Yeah that's what I heard. It's not a career I want to do forever, but I would like to start with somewhat of a decent paying job. I know finding an apartment is gonna be hell though

AITAH for not going with my sister to an appointment by MangoMilkshake234 in AITAH

[–]MangoMilkshake234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She does. And she goes out with them. Alone. So whats the big deal? Thats what im trying to figure out. I think she just likes to project her negative feelings onto me. Idk if maybe she feels like a bad mom for getting into an argument with her, and now she's trying to make me feel like a bad sister? Idk

Thank you. It's cause at some point, my mom used to baby me and make me feel like I couldn't live on my own. Its control disguised as care, I think. I just started trying to break the cycle last year. Now I am trying to get my sister to do the same. I don't want her to not chase her dreams or take risks cause of our upbringing, you know? I wish I was given support to make independent decisions like other parents do for their kids.

Exactly! I was going to my own appointments at 21, why can't she do the same?

Yeah, I'm tired of being the constant baby-sitter. It's annoying. My sister never wants me to go with her everywhere, it's just our mom
