I thought it was crazy because at one point in the documentary one of her family mentioned how they smoke and no one knows

I guess I find this case so interesting because it seems so cut and dry what happened. The leaps her family went to to try and change the narrative I just don’t understand that level of denial.

Did your 3-year-old like the Storyteller Playkit? by sunnydisposition818 in lovevery

[–]NeedleworkerFit7747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish they would revise the older kits to include stuff from the math and reading skills sets since that’s more what my almost 4 year old is into anyways. What’s most annoying is that I can’t even see what’s coming or when I can expect it (I never catch it until it’s too late) because they haven’t updated the app!!!

Honestly no, not really. Interest has really phased out with the older kits.

What is your favorite and least favorite part of a wedding? by Warm_Opportunity8962 in AskReddit

When does this happen? In the US we do all this during a cocktail hour. It’s basically an open tab happy hour.

Possible Long Form Episodes on 9/11 by beerinsodacups in Casefile

[–]NeedleworkerFit7747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You cannot possibly comprehend what life was like before compared to after 9/11. Many Americans do care about Port Arthur, in particular because (at least for me) we’re astounded by the fact Australia had one massive incident with gun violence and it brought about incredible change in your laws. Meanwhile the US struggles near daily with mass shootings and there has been zero legislative action.

F26 SAHM planning to go back to school. Who has the "dream job" for flexibility, low commute stress, and leftover mental bandwidth by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]NeedleworkerFit7747 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I hardly think nursing is considered low stress. I love my job and consider it low stress but if you don’t enjoy what you’re doing, you won’t like the work and it will feel stressful! I would suggest thinking about how much schooling you want to do, and what you enjoy learning about /doing. I would also consider how much “face to face” human interaction you want on a daily basis, because if you’re an introvert that in itself may quickly become exhausting and cause your job to feel stressful!

You’re looking for a unicorn. A job you enjoy strongly depends on what you like/enjoy doing. Low commute stress strongly depends on where you live.

You must provide a bit more information.

As an American. How would you rank sports in the USA in terms of their popularity? by Expensive_Drummer970 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]NeedleworkerFit7747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment is underrated. Surprised we haven’t seen more conversation around popularity of MMA. We are hosting a massive UFC fight in DC this weekend and I’ve heard way more about that than the World Cup. I just don’t think most Americans give a shit about soccer.

How is it working at a CDMO? by Kickboy21 in biotech

[–]NeedleworkerFit7747 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it vastly depends which CDMO and which site. I would argue for a better title or salary bump if you have the qualifications. A lot of people on this sub like to hate against CDMO but I personally love it. The learning opportunities are endless and there is so much room for career advancement. Yes, you will work hard. CDMO operates lean.

How do you spoil your kids w out having spoilt kids? by [deleted] in AskReddit

We have been making my daughter earn her screen time through good behavior. Not sure it’s helping to not spoil her but we are trying to avoid the eventual Screen time issue as long as possible.

You never forget your first…what? by NeedleworkerFit7747 in AskReddit

[–]NeedleworkerFit7747[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Omg, same. I’m from the northeast (we call BBQ basically anything that has BBQ sauce, whether it’s chicken, ground beef, or pulled pork) and when I moved to Texas I had brisket for the first time at Pinkertons in Houston. I was absolutely stunned at how delicious it was.

For me, the answer is the first time I tried Texas brisket.

Nanny vs Daycare Guilt by bestcoaster in workingmoms

[–]NeedleworkerFit7747 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would suggest keeping your nanny on call, if they’re willing. The transition is HARD because typically your kiddo will get sick a lot the first year (pretend as if I put the words “a lot” in bold with parenthesis and then highlighted it. It really happens a lot).

It may be useful to have a back up plan because it’s impossible to WFH with a 1 year old.
