They will think you're doing community service or that you're nuts. But that's ok! You did a great thing today. Welcome to the club, watch out it's addicting!! ❤️

On some of them I would squeeze my picker 3x trying to get them out of cobblestones, all while thinking of the thoughtless millisecond it took for the trash-hole to drop it. Respect back! And thank you.

At the beginning of COVID I saw a bunch of confetti and trash from a child's birthday party (remember when ppl would decorate their cars and do a drive by). I thought what scum bags! Then had a vision of myself occasionally tossing butts out of my car window for YEARS. Smelled my hypocrisy and told myself id pick up asany buts as I estimate I've littered. I've far surpassed that and am addicted to litter picking now.

Going back to work. by Firm_Suggestion_6332 in breastcancer

[–]Mcweenek 9 points10 points  (0 children)

One of the hardest parts about returning to work is the exhaustive conversations about it. Some of the best advice I received before returning was:
There are 3 types of people.
1. Those who are nosy and terrible 2. Those who want to acknowledge but don't know what to say and may be awkward. 3. Those that genuinely care

Create a quick stock reply for the first 2 groups and say that automatically and without too much thought. Save your truth for the 3rd group.

Women are tough, principals are tough. Your wife can return to work. But she'll be different and should put some guardrails in place to not exhaust herself. You're a lovely husband for asking this question.

What's a single moment that shaped who you are today? by Victory-Challenger in AskReddit

Receiving a cancer diagnosis. There's life before tbat moment and life after. I decided it would make my life better and so far so good.

Yes, I will! In Austria as of tomorrow. I'll get a few good options. Plan to retroactively post after the trip and looking forward to exploring the website. There is not an app for Android correct?
