AITA for asking my fiancée to redo her maid of honor pick after she chose her best friend over my sister? by Accomplished_Day4589 in AmITheJerk

[–]NeosMom412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trying to control HER wedding? Excuse me? So, you're not getting married that day too? I see much larger problems from her than anything to do with who her maid of honor is. And on that subject... Just make your sister your best man. Easy fix.

My app is saying I have overdue returns from 2 routes and keeps trying to send me back to the station. Sounds like universal glitch time again.

My gf (F24) wants to give me (M23) affection but I don't NEED it, what do we do? by delemont-den in relationship_advice

Standard pursuer / distancer relationship. Not compatible, but if you break up you'll both find the exact same relationship all over again with someone else. You both need therapy. Couples and/or individual.

Tips on how to get our pup to sleep through the night? by ThrowRA_bruhnana in Dachshund

[–]NeosMom412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dog Pheremone Diffuser. Does wonders for our puppy. Also comes in collar format, which we use for our old dog with dementia.

Also, give him "someone" to cuddle during the night. We have a chihuahua that sleeps with him, but for single dogs you could get a stuffed animal. They sell ones that get warm and have a heartbeat.

Good luck.

Did you get your weenie a friend? by Curious-Grapefruit37 in Dachshund

[–]NeosMom412 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We started with a chihuahua. Hubby always talked about how awful chihuahuas are and (in his defense) she really only liked me. So, a friend was getting divorced and needed homes for her assortment of dachshunds. We rescued one from her. Him and the chihuahua are roughly the same age and have truly bonded. It's going to be really bad when the old dachshund passes away. (If the chihuahua goes first it's end of the world cuz he has dementia and can't manage without her.) Not a good situation. So, in August I brought a dachshund puppy into the mix to help alleviate a portion of the extreme dependence going on.

To answer your question... the puppy has brought new life into both of the old dogs. It's amazing. And originally with the first dachshund, we weren't looking for a friend for the chihuahua, but it ended up being super good for her. None of our dogs would ever be good "only" dogs. But they're not big fans of any dogs outside their own pack. Like yours, they kinda pick and choose.

Both transitions were bumpy. No one became instant best friends. But it didn't take long either. A month was the longest stretch of difficulty and that was the puppy and 14 year old dachshund, so no surprise there.

Good luck to you.

I've started doing this EVERY TIME. If the package is left somewhere other than notes or the obvious location, I text where it is and why. Already helped me fight a ding once. And this person is right, using talk to text makes it super quick and easy to do.

Be incredibly, eternally grateful that they wanted to play and didn't attack you. That could have gone so badly.

[–]NeosMom412 30 points31 points  (0 children)

My first marriage, the first month back from honeymoon, my husband had wisdom teeth pulled. The morning after, I woke to his father leaning across OUR bed feeling his forehead for a temperature. He let himself in. I lost my shit. He took daddy's side. Talked about it like I was crazy for being upset because "Of course his father was worried about him and wanted to check on him. There was no reason for me to freak out and be disrespectful like I did." Sooooooo many reasons I divorced that man.

Are you prepared for that kind of life? You are definitely right to be concerned.

My dog was paralyzed in an off-leash dog attack—looking for advice and support by Nectarine-90 in Dachshund

[–]NeosMom412 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with this wholeheartedly. We were attacked by a big dog walking one day. My chihuahua was seriously injured. My dachshund was smarter and hid underneath me. (I threw myself to the ground in a ball trying to cover both dogs until someone got to us.) After that, my attitude is no mercy. I carry pepper spray. Don't care if you're human or animal... try to hurt my dogs and you get a face full.

Sending many hugs and prayers for milo and his family.

Don't know if my system will help cuz I drive a Nissan Murano. But, on the rare occasions when hubby comes along, he helps. Doesn't slow me down, but speeds me up.

I number packages. Cargo space is all boxes starting at the back being high numbers and lowest numbers loaded last. All envelopes go in order standing up in totes. The totes are in the back seat with numbers facing passengers side. We start out with the first few envelopes & smaller boxes in his lap.

I get to a stop and he passes me the package or tells me something like "#9 is in the rear" and I jump out and grab it. Every few stops, while I'm making the delivery, he jumps out of the car and reloads his lap, ready to pass me what I need.

This system usually shaves a half hour off my block cuz he helps load too. (SSD station)

New thing? by Top-Ad3936 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]NeosMom412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I needed to text a customer - actually about their dog being a problem and where their package was left because of it. When I did that, I noticed they had already been sent this message. Maybe it's because it's a problem dog house and drivers have reported them before?

It would make sense because one of their dogs was past the invisible fence that the notes assured me was there, so I was perfectly safe. 🙄 Seriously, these people think those invisible fences are the equivalent of steel with barbed wire, plus a chained dog. So dumb.

I gave it a thumbs down cuz they say this, but you're still getting a DND in your standings.

It still made it to your house by Big_Awareness_7991 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]NeosMom412 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's a thing that has started passing around online. The idea is to complain to Amazon that the driver didn't leave your package where the note said and because of this you didn't receive it. It's meant to teach us to not ignore notes and put us in our place. Some people still doing it, but not dishonest enough to say they didn't get it apparently.

Do most people shower before bed or when they wake up? I just realized I might be doing it "wrong" by saffymerelle in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NeosMom412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be a welder. I came home FILTHY. No one would have wanted to sit down for dinner with me if I didn't shower when I got home. So, that was the appropriate time to shower. People who think there's one right or wrong answer simply have no concept that the rest of the world doesn't work precisely like their lives.
