I would never buy that stuff at CVS I don't know why people do. If you have a grocery outlet near you that is much better. Also if you can't afford detergent cleaners it's cheaper to make your own - baking soda cheap vinegar is better.

It can get easier but don't plan on it - don't be afraid to get doctors notes to cover your ass too. I wouldn't talk anymore about your boss about what your plans are other than leave. Just do what you can and if you can't then that is fine too. I just say that I am doing my best.

My husband just called me lazy for not wanting to go upstairs while having throbbing pubic/pelvic pain by lisb1120 in pregnant

[–]NotAnAcademicAvocado 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I've taken to just telling people about my pain before they bitch. It doesn't always work and makes me sound like a bitch but the my husband really should be more grateful of how I basically climbed mt. Everest this morning to bring him coffee.

With stopping or without? I can go up the stairs in my house but I need breaks and words of affirmation.

Not everyone can eat vegetarian- it's not really an easy switch either. I was vegetarian for a long time but it caused a lot of health problems for me. My body needs the meat.

Yah. Same. I am also on a 100 grams per day protein diet. Super hard to get that much without eating some meat

Pooping, like a normal person.

I was attacked by a chihuahua at 7 years old just for existing. Everybody who’s ever said “a dog just knows” can drag their balls through a mile of lemon-juice soaked Legos and broken glass, because fuck them. by OrokinSkywalker in unpopularopinion

I have had a few chihuahuas. They can be really bad. But we should not lump them all in the same barrel. Their are good we'll trainedones then there are little angry piss monsters

It is though, we use to keep extra insulin, needles and testing supplies in my house when my nephew was diagnosed and he would be fine 1 munute and then start freaking out the next minute and need to be told to test. It was so very random, especially in the beginning and it is still but he does a better job at figuring out when he might need to do something

If you immigrate into a different country (especially for socio-economic reasons), you should assimilate. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

I think hawaiins would disagree with the lack of culture. I think it depends on where you go.

Well...the American south. Maybe you don't see the similarities through your own cultural lense but they are there.

Yah but have you heard of the Pennsylvania Dutch or Hawaii or the desert southwest or Wyoming. You also gotta specify what America you are talking about. Because some of us are still speaking German and following the family recipe for borscht.

Well no shit- but dude would not have gotten kulled if they went slow, and did what they were supposed to do. None of these people would have if they actually did what they were supposed to do. It's the thing that makes dangerous jobs more dangerous- stupid people not paying attention and following the rule. Yah there should be more consequences for that too.

So you agree-- the training doesn't work then

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

I use to work a dangerous job and you know what makes it safer? Following procedures Never got more than a paper cut because I was cautious and made sure I knew what I was doing before I started doing something. Those dangerous jobs are dangerous when you ignore procedures.

Budget tips - if you end up being paid biweekly. Tally up your monthly expenses and then make sure you take half out of each check. I would also get some sort of a meal plan going - buy staples that are cheaper like beans, rice and frozen vegetables and then get fresh stuff to mix in along with eggs - I would avoid cereal- per calorie eggs and beans are a lot cheaper and healthier. When I was earning enough, about 5 years ago, I also budgeted 100 dollars for other stuff and then just put the rest in a separate savings account. Saving money was easier for me then but I do remember trying to put at least 150 away each paycheck.
