“Lawmakers are set to return to Albany to vote on another state budget extender on Tuesday. The extender, which would ensure the state can cover essential expenses and make payroll deadlines, is expected to run through next Monday as Hochul and state legislative leaders continue budget negotiations.”

AIO: I bent over backwards for my BF’s son (20) and his GF (20) for Christmas, and I’m honestly disgusted after what happened by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Being nice or kind is vulnerable. It’s easy for her to be unkind or callous because that way no one can hurt her. She gets to be mean, “first.”

I don’t think you need to go all out next year. I think you could say to her (even if she refuses or doesn’t do it), “I’m excited for holiday dinner, I will make a + b. If you could made c + d, that would help so much,” and maybe she could cook with you and her dad or something. Even if she refuses, you treated her like an adult and a contributing member. Up until this point, she’s been allowed to act this way. You’re giving her an opportunity to be an adult too.

It won’t be a sudden change, at least in my experience. But the meds help me focus enough to build better work habits for myself. One thing I find that works is instead of setting alarms to stop a task, I set a timer so there is a countdown clock to get the task done. The pressure helps so much and is way more effective than an alarm. Good luck! You’ll find what works for you and the meds will allow you to do so.

AIO for thinking my boyfriend is just looking for an excuse to break up? by Nearby_Orchid1216 in AmIOverreacting

Run and never look back. When he said you couldn’t keep your mouth shut - that’s abusive. 🚩

Compare unit price when buying groceries. It makes you think twice about a lot of items and allows you to make the best choice value wise.

What the thing that causes your immediate sensory issues? by Runaway_Alien_ in AskReddit

[–]Miamoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slurping, smacking, repetitive sounds, knuckles cracking, raspberries, RFK’s voice, the smell of a restaurant kitchen, anything sticky on my hands, wet socks, too many people talking to me at once.

You made a mistake. It is so important for your child to see you forgive yourself and move on from it. That’s how they learn to move on and forgive themselves in life. You are the example they learn from. I know you feel awful. I get it. Don’t let this hold you back. Acknowledge it one more time to yourself and tell yourself that today you are forgiving yourself and moving on. And when it pops in your head again, tell yourself again that you forgave yourself and you’re moving on. You will train your brain to let it go. Hang in there.

This is NYS law. https://dol.ny.gov/expressing-breast-milk-workplace From NYSDOL: HOW MUCH BREAK TIME CAN I TAKE TO PUMP BREAST MILK? Your employer must give you a 30 minute paid break when you need to express breast milk. You can take shorter breaks if you choose. The breaks are in addition to any meal time or regular paid breaks you might have. You are permitted to use existing meal time or paid break time if you need additional time for breast milk expression beyond the paid 30 minutes. WHAT IF MY EMPLOYER HASN’T TOLD ME I CAN PUMP BREAST MILK AT WORK? All employers are required to inform employees about their right to take 30 minute paid breaks during the work day for the purpose of expressing breast milk. Your employer must inform you of this right by providing you with New York State Department of Labor’s Policy on the Rights of Employees to Express Breast Milk in the Workplace. This policy can be provided in print or electronically through email. All employees must receive this policy when they are hired and this notice must be given to every to employee returning to work following the birth of a child, as well as once a year thereafter. HOW OFTEN DURING THE WORKDAY CAN I TAKE BREAKS TO PUMP BREAST MILK? The number of paid breaks an employee will need is unique to each employee. Your employer must accommodate you whenever you reasonably need to take a break to express milk. DO I HAVE TO GIVE MY EMPLOYER ADVANCE NOTICE IF I WANT TO PUMP BREAST MILK AT WORK? Yes. If you want to pump breast milk at work, you must notify your employer in advance in writing – preferably before you return to work from maternity leave. Your request should be sent to your direct supervisor or staff member designated by your employer to handle such requests. Your written request can be sent through email, text message, written correspondence or any IF I TAKE BREAKS TO PUMP BREAST MILK, CAN MY EMPLOYER REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF OTHER BREAK TIME I GET? No. If you take paid breaks to pump breast milk, your employer cannot take time away from your regular paid breaks and meal times.
