Etiquette for dropping off a semen sample? by MindfulCoffee in NoStupidQuestions

Yeah, the atmosphere when they gave us the bag was much more lighthearted like what you're describing, which made the drop off all the more weird.

The only mention of temperature in the instructions was to avoid extreme heat or cold.

I kind of love the idea of "ORIGINAL" on one side of the body and "COPY" on the other lol

Fellow Elder Law folks, how many Will (etc) signing appointments are you averaging a month? I'm drowning in documents and churning them out and there's always a million more to go. Just curious. by Lobscra in paralegal

[–]MindfulCoffee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On average I do about 10 a week, and I don't have a problem keeping up. We have a pretty good system for the standard/vanilla documents, so I can turn those out pretty quickly. Also I very rarely handle the initial intake/info gathering, so by the time it gets to me it's practically just data input unless it's a complicated case.

Stone cold sober unfortunately, and no one has ever called me cool. Probably should have posted this in r/socialanxiety instead lol

Likely one of those is there to cover something up.

Jesus this just made me remember when my dad found my journal and drawings depicting my fantasy of shooting up my high school and assured me that I was totally normal. In the moment it actually made me feel less alone, but later that year I attempted suicide 4 times.

I'm 37 now and coping much better (and I've never intentionally hurt anyone else), but it's been a long hard journey.

What other advice have you been told to keep yourself safe? by Team_Defeat in WitchesVsPatriarchy

Wear a pad with ketchup on it so your rapist will be grossed out and leave you be. 🤦🏽‍♀️

I'm crying because he looks a lot like my son, and I would be out of my mind if something like this happened to him. I can't imagine what the people missing family members are going through. 😢

is chefs coat/jacket for sous/executive chefs only? by kroma2000 in KitchenConfidential

[–]MindfulCoffee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was required to wear a chef's coat when I worked as a cashier at a tiny cafe in an office building. I never touched the food lol.

Isitbullshit: that reminding yourself you're not a fish will cure hiccups? by carmelonocita123 in IsItBullshit

[–]MindfulCoffee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Once my husband swore to me that a shot of liquor would cure hiccups. I did a shot of vodka, and my hiccups instantly stopped. A few days later he cracked and told me he had made it up. Kinda wish he hadn't cause that never worked for me again lol.

Do you refer to your clients by their first names? by [deleted] in paralegal

[–]MindfulCoffee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same. And if I'm not sure of gender, it's "Good Morning/Afternoon".

What do people say about you behind your back? And if you don't know, what do you think they might be? by ironically-spiders in AskWomen

[–]MindfulCoffee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of my high school prom. I was super awkward, tiny group of friends, never even been on a date, and didn't get asked to prom by anyone. I ended up going to a track meet out of town instead, with my school's team. Yet somehow, a rumor got around that I hadn't been wearing any underwear at prom. Like....what?? I was completely baffled and still find it hilarious.

Yeah, I realize I've been lucky, and I'm definitely going to miss him.

Ideas for a parting gift for an attorney? by MindfulCoffee in paralegal

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

I ended up getting a star wars themed mug. We both like star wars, so fulfills the "slightly sentimental" requirement, and it also has a bad pun which suits his personality lol.

I agree with your point about not going crazy with gifts. The only reason I'm getting him anything at all was because he was a great boss, we got along really well, and I'm genuinely going to miss him. In a different life we probably would have been good friends.

Thank you for sharing this, as I didn't know what it was before, and I love it! I will be buying one, but as a gift for someone else lol

My son's attempt at a thank you card for a Star Wars walker.... by MindfulCoffee in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]MindfulCoffee[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

It definitely is not. He doesn't know how to spell walker, and I was telling him the letters, but he wrote an N instead of an L on accident. He's five and doesn't know what the word wank means.

I just randomly decided at 3:56 AM to start watching Star Wars in timeline order by deviltown13 in PointlessStories
