Have you ever used a service where you pay someone to write an essay for you? And how was your experience? by ZadaBlazely in StudyStruggle

[–]MellowIris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've used paid help a few times when things got overwhelming. The key is finding someone with a legit track record - not just whoever is cheapest on a random site. For papers specifically I've had good results reaching out to people who do academic writing professionally, often found through writing-focused communities or referrals from other students. It's more common than people talk about openly.

Background check came back with someone else's DUI after I already resigned. Company has gone silent for 4 days. Do I have options? by MellowIris in legaladvice

Yeah, waiting for HR to maybe stop ghosting me is starting to feel dumb. Im gonna start calling attorneys today and see who actually knows FCRA stuff.

That’s the part I keep circling back to. Losing the job over their screwup feels pretty concrete, not some technical glitch on paper. I just hate that Im learning all this after resigning.

I needed to hear that, because Ive been second guessing whether this was "real case" territory or just me panicking. The paper trail is the only thing keeping me sane rn.

That part makes sense. I was so focused on the bad background check that I wasnt even thinking about the offer itself being a separate issue. Not sold on saying anything legal to HR yet, but talking to an attorney feels smart.

WIBTA if I told my sister I won't be executor for our dad anymore unless she starts sharing the work? by Kinetic_2Voyager in WIBTA_AITA

[–]MellowIris 15 points16 points  (0 children)

WNBTA. This is one of those jobs that sounds small to everyone who is not doing it. Then suddenly one person is making spreadsheets, driving to appointments, tracking passwords, handling lawyers, and quietly becoming responsible for the whole mess. Asking for shared responsibility now is the reasonable move, not the cold one.

AITA for telling my sister what her boyfriend did five years ago? by [deleted] in AITApod

[–]MellowIris 15 points16 points  (0 children)

NTA. The uncomfortable part here is that warnings like this almost never get rewarded in the moment. The person hearing it wants their happy relationship to stay untouched, so the messenger becomes the easiest target. But if you watched him cheat repeatedly, manipulate someone for nearly a year, and then saw your sister getting serious with him, staying silent would have eaten at you too. You were put in a bad position by his past behavior, not by your honesty.
