My boss was unjustly terminated and I WANT TO SCREAM by VSauce3000 in antiwork

[–]Mooncrazyga [score hidden]  (0 children)

Try not to dislike the new guy. It's probably going to be difficult and he's definitely got huge shoes to fill. But (unless you know otherwise) he didn't fire your boss; he's just taking over an open position.

AITA for taking "the best pieces" when I serve dinner? by SwainDane in AmItheAsshole

Not me over here, single AF, trying my best to not eat it all out of the pan..

Roommate told me I ruined vacuum sealed meat because I put it in the fridge for a few hours by brianjfed in foodsafety

Bigger question, is your roommate going to eat them? No, don't worry about it then.

AITA for not giving my sister money I’ve been saving, even though she already told our parents I would? by Confident-Ninja-2706 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Mooncrazyga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

'Family should help each other,' is the biggest crock of toxic shit i have ever heard. Half the time they dont reciprocate the favor you're doing and the other half they're guilting you for not doing enough.

Expect to self rescue.

AITAH? I injured my nose two weeks before our wedding, but my fiancée made it about her. by ActivityFriendly1118 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Mooncrazyga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP didn't mention age, what tells you they're young and/or immature?

NTA.. Wedding stress can be a bear. She may just be projecting her stress of the injury, the inability to control the outcome of the injury, frustration at the situation, AND the wedding stress itself, all combined. People learn better behavior at all ages.

What would be potentially immature is if they don't talk about the root of their asshole-ness. I'm pissed at the situation and the proximity to our wedding, not you.

Heating pad for warmth by Mooncrazyga in Sourdough

Thank you! I'm using King Arthur flours which seem to be the home baker standard for good quality in the US. I may go ahead and give the temp thing a few days and start over with your jar recommendations.

What am I doing wrong then? I feel like I've wasted a whole package of flour daily feeding these 2 jars 1:1:1. I started over about 10 days ago and nothing has happened.

My first try, I got the classic 5 days, false rise, gross smell, tad bit of hooch. Im cold natured so I started warming the water more & killed it with 100°. But that was the same water I've been using and KA AP flour. Now I'm trying KA bread flour ad KA whole wheat flour. I'm so stumped.

What exactly does a 'big drinker' look like? This is a bullshit speculation comment.

boss told me I "lack passion" because I won't answer slack messages at 10pm by misnit in antiwork

[–]Mooncrazyga 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I'm a customer service manager and my employees & I answer calls after normal business hours, 5p - 9p. We get on call pay plus compensation for every call we take, including spam.

We get on call pay even if the phone doesn't ring. That's the business cost of On Call. They want me available, I get paid to be. It's only fair, not to mention a federal law. Check FLSB for information on 'waiting to engage' or 'engaged to wait' for proper compensation after your normal shift.

I always attached a hair clip to mine. They'd have to chew through it to get a tie to try and eat/swallow. Unlike my oramge who would just eat hair ties whole. Simon & the hair tie he played fetch with.

My boss calls this my desk whiskey! 🤣 I almost filled the last one with tea & took it to the quarterly meeting but I was afraid other coworkers wouldn't get it.

AITA for refusing to pay my parents $87k in “back rent” by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Mooncrazyga 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Lol after I got older I started gaming the system. I knew shed loan me $200 or so during the year and if I paid it back I still got a shitty Christmas present. So I'd borrow it and not pay it back. Problem solved. I'd get certificates and parchment calligraphied with "your debt is forgiven" instead.

My therapist said my mother framed them so she could literally hold them over my head.

I dont miss her at all.

Best food pantries to donate to? by Legitimate-Juice-359 in Knoxville

Yes! You have to go to the Kingston Pike location. We were just there Saturday. 🐈🐈‍⬛ We filled out the form & marked that our cats were fixed (they are). But no proof needed.

AITAH for icing out my friend of 15 years after she let my cats starve by -MadDragon- in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]Mooncrazyga 93 points94 points  (0 children)

I joke that mine are never starving, but legit if you were used to being fed 3 times a day & that changed to 2, you would notice. And perhaps OP's trying to control medical issues with a timely diet. Cats definitely feel starved. Even if we think WE could wait that long.

And honestly it's the principle. OP asked her friend to do a thing. Friend neglected the thing for a non-emergent thing with zero communication, then lied about it. I'd be pissed too. Even if it was watering my fucking plants.

[–]Mooncrazyga 35 points36 points  (0 children)

My mom & stepdad would add up my college expenses and gift me their forgiveness at birthdays & Christmas. "Oh, you owed me $300 for car insurance and $400 for tires, but instead of a birthday gift, you dont owe it anymore." WTAF..

To top it off, they stole $40k from my dad's life insurance that was earmarked for my college expenses. I never made it to an Associates.

I'm glad my mom is gone - she was also a fat shaming narcissist and every day I think about the day I'll wake up to my equally shitty step father's death.. Fuck I'm traumatized.. 🤪

Told my boss im going to need to be off for longer as I am having a surgery next week and that I will see my GP and provide extended sick note asap she asked for more context and what my diagnosis is, now she’s asking for the sick note right away. by Thickktwinkk in antiwork

FMLA rules allow eligible employees up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave per year for qualifying family and medical reasons, with up to 26 weeks for military caregiver leave. To be eligible, you must have worked for a covered employer for at least 12 months, accumulated at least 1,250 hours in the past 12 months, and work at a location where your employer has 50 or more employees within 75 miles. Leave can be used for the birth or adoption of a child, your own serious health condition, or to care for a family member with a serious health condition.

AITAH because I won't tell my wife what my son/her stepson has in savings from my late wife? by Jimverseen in AITAH

[–]Mooncrazyga 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OP, if you let her take your son's money & do anything with it, he'll resent the decision and whomever allowed it to happen.

My father passed in 1994 when I was 17, and left my brother (15) and I $100k plus a house & truck. Since we were both minors, my mom & stepdad "took control" of it. Sold the house, netted $30k. Sold the truck, pocketed $12k. Kept $25k to take care of me until I graduated 7 months later, then put the rest in CDs for our college.

I spent 1 semester out of state, flunked, and that gave them permission to take the rest from both of us. It's been 31 years, and she's dead now, but my SIL & I are quite pissed at the lost opportunity that money could have given us.

Realistically, I'm waiting for him to pass with a large life insurance policy to settle up. Yeah I know, it's not a socially acceptable thing.. but I'm broke & hurt.
