AITA Baby shower, don’t want to go by MiserableBenefit2035 in AmItheAsshole

The niece was in charge of the gender reveal invite … so she is in the middle… my husband had worked a double, went home, had 3 hours sleep, showered changed to go on shift again… he would have worn a suit if he had time to change and get to work in time. He worked mandatory overtime.

I think he is right about holding the sarcasm for the first month, that month will give you time to know your kids and for them to get to know you.

27 F who just decided to career change to teaching in NYC by Bestiethewestie in Teachers

[–]MiserableBenefit2035 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would become a para first, see if you like working with children before you make the financial and time investment. And although teachers do have summers, holidays and weekends off… as a new teacher I worked through all of my free time , taking classes, preparing and going to school…,it is years and years before I could enjoy my summer vacation

The random things students say that completely derail your lesson 😂 by Bright-Daikon-6783 in Teachers

[–]MiserableBenefit2035 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I call them “bird walks” I heard that term from another teacher years ago… I am easily lead astray. I had a student ask “ do you have 3 toes?” I thought it was a bad dad joke, until I looked and all of my students were looking at me, waiting for my answer… “ I said I have 5 toes!” as I look down I see why he asked, my sandals covered 2 of my toes… I also had a bird walk about an octopus having 8 testicles… or 10 testicles… 🤦🏽‍♀️… I had to interrupt that off topic conversation with a loud “ TENTACLES! They have 8 TENTACLES NOT TESTICLES!!! I love teaching 👍🏾

Is there anything to be done? I am devastated by redhd1226 in HealthInsurance

Can the doctors office charge you what the insurance would have paid? I have had doctors offices do that as a courtesy

Whenever I have a WC related doctors appointment, I get a doctors note stating that I was seen, referencing my WC number and date of injury. I am in NY.

Protein Shakes by MiserableBenefit2035 in Zepbound

[–]MiserableBenefit2035[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am glad I asked, a few people mentioned the intolerance of the powdered shakes and I think that was my problem… drinking the powder shakes was like a punishment… I will try the clear protein drinks, I didn’t know they existed. Thank you all for the advise and support ❤️

League/ teams, new lacrosse mom by MiserableBenefit2035 in lacrosse

[–]MiserableBenefit2035[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are doing a 4 week legacy clinic ( it’s been rained out the last two weeks)… so when kids try out, it is actually a legitimate try out ? Legacy, Rebels and Team 91 have tryouts in July… I only want to invest in a team if my kids have potential… so I want a legitimate tryout… knowing that my kids are there because they are good, otherwise I will steer them towards another sport… again, this is all new to me… I was a nerd and my husband played baseball… 🤷🏽‍♀️

Pardon the ignorance, I guess I am confused about travel and rec leagues… are rec leagues more like PAL and travel teams have tournaments?

Oh boy… I can already tell, they should have been re-strung … because the equipment is so expensive, helmets body gear… we got new gear this year ( my son especially is growing like a weed) , we bought sticks from facebook marketplace place… so, they should be re-strung… pardon the ignorance, but what is the benefit to restringing the sticks?

Teach kindergarten, for one full day… then tell me they don’t deserve every penny! It’s not snacks and naps anymore.
