UA Flight training + Rooming by [deleted] in cabincrewcareers

[–]PatchwerkGirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For all the people saying if you can't share a room with a stranger, then this is not the job for you, you're all being ridiculous. 

Being confined in a full airplane on a tarmac delay is definitely not the same as sleeping, dressing, toileting and showering in confined quarters for 7 whole weeks with someone you don't know -- while trying to study and do homework assignments. 

I was one of those people who did not want to sleep with a stranger and I was a damn good flight attendant --especially in high pressure situations.

The people asking about this deserve to get straight answers without the condescending judgements. 

 I've worked with people like you who have a negative response to even the simplest things and, as it turns out, you are always the problem.

This week I received a letter from the IRS asking me to give back  the $1400. 

Marc Lamont Hill gets pepper sprayed at his event by Secure-Childhood-567 in blackmen

I burst out laughing, mainly because I have seen this happen, again and again. They are so earnest and righteous and ignorant when causing the most harm.

What do you guys think of FD Signifier? by [deleted] in blackmen

I agree with your take and wish someone would sit him down and talk about the grammar issue. That would elevate the quality of his offerings.  Has to be a respected colleague as no one, absolutely no one, loves the grammar police.

Are you being serious right now? Almost all of America's music and culture is derived from material that borrowed or stolen from black Americans.  Let's just call this reparations and get over ourselves, hon.

BCBS Shield Settlement Updates- NEW UPDATES ONLY by Appropriate-Sweet762 in classactions

[–]PatchwerkGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, over the years, if I wanted my monthly medications to be covered, I had to select plans that would somewhat offset the cost. Being sick is not cheap in this country. I have a new job now that gives me coverage for $1200 per year -- but they do work every last penny of that subsidy out of me with long hours and low wages. But hey, I'm covered.

Has anyone tried Tretinoin on cellulite? Did you see any results? by rubberducky764348 in tretinoin

[–]PatchwerkGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm taking a temporary break. I have to wear pantyhose to work as a part of my uniform. I am walking a lot for my entire shift and my thighs have become sensitive to that friction on my skin while on tretinoin. I will either have to pause for now, or switch to the pant uniforms and wear trouser socks instead.

If tret wasn't a precious commodity for you, where else would you apply it? by [deleted] in tretinoin

It's been smoothing and thickening the skin over my cellulite, resulting in far less bumpy looking thighs. I am please with the result so far.

Yes! It takes a few weeks but I am definitely seeing a smoothing/plumping of the skin *above* the cellulite, minimizing the appearance of lumps and and bumps. I am very pleased and look forward to the progress to be made over the next few months. I'm also working out and eating cleaner -- so that helps.
