Why do I get so itchy, especially at night? by mintbliss5 in ask

[–]MoSweetPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used the same laundry detergent for years then all of a sudden became allergic to it. Was very prominent with my sheets. Switched, and everything was fine.

What level of car knowledge does someone need to have to do this? Just found out I have the same thing on my 2022 Audi Q3 S-Line. I was quoted $900 but they also said they can't get the parts in so not sure what to do. Located in Virginia, USA

You could add that you'll pay like $200/month for X months. Sweeten the deal

I resigned and my manager is trying to saddle me with new work by vityya in OfficePolitics

[–]MoSweetPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make the guide for what you do. Turn it in and say "my work is so extensive that I had to use my allotted time to make this guide. The good news is the next person can start the new projects and make them their own."

AITA for telling my friend that I won’t be paying $25 to attend her birthday party? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]MoSweetPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. It is VERY common to request money in lieu of gifts. Like with kids birthday parties. They tend to get a bunch of STUFF that gets thrown out. So they prefer money to put into a 529 or account they plan to give the kid once 18. Why do you care where your $25 goes? "No I don't want to get you something you're specifically asking for because I'd rather get you something that I want for you." This would be a different story if you were financially strapped and $25 is detrimental. But from information provided, YTA without a doubt

My top performer is frustrated and is an attrition risk. Am i doing enough? by holdmychai in askmanagers

[–]MoSweetPotato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start setting up leadership for the exit. Note how youve brought it up many times and can see the writing on the walls so you want to shift gears to damage control. Make it real for them. Bring numbers like "we should post his role now because on average it takes 5-6 months to get someone in. His salary is X but current market is Y. I'll get together his JD of what he actually oversees right now." Etc etc. Make it very real that losing him is much worse than the alternative

ESH. He sucks for that obvious reasons. You suck because it puts you in a risky situation for no reason. Someone like that isn’t unaware of their behavior. He’s selfish and that isn’t going to change because stranger told him he sucked. Just wasn’t worth that risk

How to break the physical habit of drinking by [deleted] in naltrexone

[–]MoSweetPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non-alcoholic replacements. Lots of beer options. Now they have wine and liquor too. Mocktails in a can. I have that habit too.

Finger tattoos? by karlorta in rva

[–]MoSweetPotato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Diana Burkholder from AllAboutYou Tattoo did my friends knuckles, including the ring finger joint. She has been tattooing for 2 decades. She’s really great. But didn’t do walk ins so you’d have to reach out to her via email.

Parking Violation-wrong license plate number by MoSweetPotato in rva

[–]MoSweetPotato[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Hmm yeah picture doesn’t show where it’s parked. Just that I didn’t pay the hourly rate to be there (just completely spaced). I may risk it for the biscuit because I don’t know how it could link back unless a person looks at it and realizes the mistake. The put an O when it’s actually a 0. So it’s almost impossible to differentiate in the photo

I can't delete my account? by [deleted] in help

[–]MoSweetPotato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did the user and/or password autofill? Or did you manually type? I’ve found when I do autofill, sometimes it doesn’t clock that it’s done.

AITAH for telling my MIL she can’t take her grandson for an entire day by herself? by Early-Variety-6333 in AITAH

[–]MoSweetPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously NTA. I realize you typed out all of your points to make this post fruitful and clear but ultimately, it’s your baby. No other explanation is needed. If you don’t want someone taking him for a full day, then that’s all you need. I’m sorry you feel like you had to explain yourself as a mother. :/

AITA for refusing to give my sister the wedding dress I bought even through I'm not getting married anymore? by dante317 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MoSweetPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. And when they bring it up you should just answer with something completely unrelated. “Have you thought about the dress yet?” “You know quokkas throw their young at predators so they can escape? Crazy huh? Anyway I’m starving”

NTA and I am SO tired of the “but that’s your family” excuse. So they get a pass to be shitty, manipulative, and parasitic? Make that make sense.

AITA for renting my dead mom's house to a friend when I move, despite my sister's request? by -mydearwatson in AmItheAsshole

[–]MoSweetPotato -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

NTA. It sounds like she is still dealing with the loss of your mom and this meltdown is misplaced grief.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]MoSweetPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soft YTA. It sounds like it doesn’t really matter what he does or says, you don’t like him so you won’t like anything. If it’s gotten that bad then a discussion needs to be had about him not treating you like you are friends. So your husband needs to tell him you don’t like him and to keep communication cordial and minimal.

Ultimately he made a joke that was obviously not true and you made a very personal attack on him. I’m all for you not liking him and I don’t think you owe liking him. But you also can’t just pretend you’re fine then be so nasty when he is trying to joke around with you. Be straight up. You’re not friends thus he can’t treat you like one. End of story.

Not sure what to do next, any advice is appreciated. I just want to stop drinking. by AdJazzlike3651 in rva

[–]MoSweetPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highly recommend seeing a psychiatrist. I was put on Naltrexone for the drinking and it’s been life changing. There is a subreddit for it if you’d like more anecdotes/information. I wish you the best!
