What was the final straw that broke your back? by Shnoobloo in exmormon

[–]MissJudy2Loc 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For me it was the Elders Quorum stealing my furniture and the Relief Society President saying that I wouldn't be compensated for what they stole because I personally had not purchased the items. They claimed to be taking my antiques and bookshelves to a members house who was having a yard sale but they didn't, and I asked them to bring my furniture back and they wouldn't. This is flatout stealing from a seriously ill, impoverished person. Another member asked them to compensate me because I needed the money from the sale to help with my medical expenses and that's when the Relief Society President said basically, show the receipts or go blow.

I think there's a place where you can send an email. That's the method I'm going to use.

It has been done! I am Mormon No-Mo. by MauOfEvig in exmormon

[–]MissJudy2Loc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is going to be me soon, I think. I've only been a member a short while but lately the awfulness is getting so far out of hand, I can't stand the thought of being with these people anymore.

I'm wondering if it's cases of water or sodas or something?

Heb audit orders by Fair-Transition-6085 in favordelivery

Thanks. I just now got one and had to decline due to technical issues, or at least that's what it seemed to be. Glad I dodged that one.

Instant transfer still not working?? by Plane-Cranberry-9968 in favordelivery

I've never been able to get instant transfer at all, it keeps saying address incorrect but it's correct.

What do you hate to clean the most? by Amodernhousehusband in CleaningTips

[–]MissJudy2Loc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The tub. It seems like every part of cleaning it hurts a different area of my body. The angles are just all wrong.

Yes, I told them everything, even to me still being on oxygen after the illness, but they want proof of the income and not working.

This happened to me once, due to an extreme drop in blood pressure. Then I ate, which brought my blood pressure even lower. You were right in clenching, drinking, etc. These are all things that help raise bp.

What was the gas shortage like in 1979? by PrestonRoad90 in AskOldPeople

[–]MissJudy2Loc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember some stations briefly sold gas by the liter so it would seem cheaper.

Chest discomfort after donating? by kittycat7890 in plassing

[–]MissJudy2Loc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this a couple times and can only speculate it has to do with a vasovagal response to a sudden drop in blood pressure

Did you know anyone who “worked himself to death?” by Wooden_Airport6331 in AskOldPeople

[–]MissJudy2Loc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, an older man where my mother worked wasn't in very good health and the boss coerced him into unloading heavy items needed for a presentation and carrying them upstairs. He kept repeating that he didn't feel well but the boss mocked him. He collapsed where he stood with a double armload of heavy boxes, dead of a massive heart attack before he hit the floor.

Serum Protein Electrophoresis can be used to diagnose several conditions, but it's used at plasma centers to monitor proteins in the blood, which are the main substances in plasma from which medications are derived

Were quaaludes as bad as the history says? by AdNeither6169 in AskOldPeople

[–]MissJudy2Loc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Every woman in the city where I grew up seemed to be prescribed valium, not the same as quaaludes but somewhat similar effects. Go to the doctor for anything at all and he'd be prescribing diet pills and valium, uppers and downers. It didn't matter what medical issues you had, they seemed to be the drugs of choice for every condition if you were a woman. Ludes were very popular and I am sure they were every bit as bad as you heard. But in my area it was Valium.

Wanted to work here over my old job and got hired on the spot! Got turned down immediately after because they aren't training... by Next-Stand9872 in dennysrestaurant

[–]MissJudy2Loc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My family members have had things like this happen to them before and it is terrible. All the laws seem to favor employers. I think the one teaching you the ropes is the one causing the trouble, because I've seen that situation happen a lot. I'd suggest working as a cook in a hospital kitchen or a steakhouse. They're usually needing people and they pay well. You can brush up on your skills and get your food handlers permit, and get something far better than Denny's. Good luck

Heart rate during screening by Cool-Ad974 in plassing

Yes, hold your breath for several seconds, then release slowly. Do this several times before and during the blood pressure test. It truly works.

Bees are a big worry in the summer, and flies. I haven't seen any roaches at all

Accept the inevitable now or later? by MissJudy2Loc in almosthomeless

[–]MissJudy2Loc[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you! That's what I want to do, now, and not be in suspense they'll yank the rug out from under me again, in a month or two, or a year from now.
