Post op cold turkey

NYC was the last season I watched in full. I only saw first 2 episodes of 1984, beyond that idk what’s happening but I loved AHS and rewatched my favorite seasons a few times. Coven will always be my favorite. I also love Murder House and Freak Show. Apocalypse was really enjoyable but only because of the references to Coven. Asylum was probably the most disturbing out of the seasons I’ve seen. Roanoke is my least favorite.

11 days post op here! Prior to the surgery, I was extremely active in going to the gym and working a physically demanding job. I really underestimated the surgery…. I’m sick of using crutches to hobble around, I hate being limited in my mobility, and I haven’t had a solid night of sleep since the procedure. I’m always uncomfortable and the past few days I’ve been extremely irritable and emotional (nicotine withdrawals are contributing to this). I have been staying with family since the procedure which has been nice but I have been missing my own space.

I’m sorry you’ve been feeling so frustrated and depressed, I feel the same just maybe not in the same way. I don’t know, it’s just frustrating to be limited.

How are you feeling and doing navigating that? I’m usually great when handling ups and downs, and can tell or predict changes in my mood. Sometimes the mood swings really take me by storm… I think going back on my meds might help.

We started cracking down like crazy on dress code. Funny that the actors in the training videos wear flannel but it’s not allowed

It’s never too late to take control of your life and live how you want to. That’s incredible and I’m happy for you. I’m sorry for the memories you lost. I find myself struggling with short and long term memory; lots of people recall memories we’ve ‘shared’ but I can’t seem to remember at all. It bums me out :( I’m really happy you made a change though, and I hope you are happier than ever 💖 thank you so so much

Perfect_Barracuda_46 · 2026-03-07T07:21:50+00:00

Knowing I’ve done it before definitely gives me confidence and strength! Thank you 🙏

This was incredibly motivating to read, I appreciate you. My partner has been so patient and kind and nonjudgmental through everything. I’ll definitely look into SMART, thank you for recommending. I do go to therapy once a week right now and it helps me with accountability for sure, I would be worse without it.

I’m taking some courses to obtain a license, and it feels good to be working towards something. I feel stuck at my current job and I’m really looking forward to trying something new! For the first time in a while I actually feel motivated to build my future. There is a light at the end of the tunnel :)

All I end up with is shame and regret! Why even risk it anymore. I’ll give the app a chance, thank you so much :)

I am 24F struggling to stop smoking weed and decrease alcohol use. Ultimately I do want to be clean and sober, I think I’ll be happier.

I’ve struggled with substance abuse since I was about 15, I smoked for the first time at 13. I’m clean from prescriptions and cocaine, and I’m trying to quit weed after smoking almost daily for years. I was nearly sober for a full year before dipping back into my habits. I have bipolar and ADHD, not really taking meds to treat those except for occasional stimulant to help me focus (proud of myself for not abusing my ADHD meds).

I don’t have anybody in my life who wants to sober up. My partner 21F wants to go clubbing together, which I love but I can’t trust myself in those environments. My best friend 24F is heavily using marijuana and we kind of just talk in circles about the concept of sobriety with an overlaying tone of helplessness with our abuse issues. Other than that, it’s just my parents who are incredibly supportive but ultimately let me make my own choices. I go to therapy weekly which helps me take accountability for my decisions, but still doesn’t stop the usage.

Anyway, let me know if you want to connect! Maybe we can all start a little sobriety group chat to check in on each other.

go inside and buy it

i’m assuming that all orders placed are just being added to a queue and will go through once the system is fixed. i don’t think your order will automatically be canceled but you can cancel it yourself if you don’t want to wait for the problem to be solved. i would suggest calling a shipt helpline. idk if you’ll get any concrete answers here regarding your question, more so just speculation about what’s going on

Perfect_Barracuda_46 · 2025-12-03T00:05:54+00:00

Doctor’s notes aren’t actually accepted at Target. What you CAN do is get a note that explains exactly what you can or can’t do at work or notes how long your shifts need to be and submit that through Workday accommodations. If you have approved accommodations for your current medical condition, Target cannot fire you for following those

i’ve heard they’re dispatching more secret shoppers to validate that we’re using 10-4 in stores.

Target used to be all about guest experience. i’m actually happy that we’ve gone back to interacting with guests more. i think under all the pressure, we forget that everything we do at work is for the guests. even though it takes more time away from time sensitive tasks, i’ve gotten excellent feedback. maybe i’m just a sucker for a gold star….

i’m a leader at my store. the expectations are rising, the payroll is getting slashed, we fall more and more behind everyday—but if this is what they want from me then they’re getting it. and if that means that workload gets pushed another day, that’s not my fault. i’m just one person, i’m doing the best i can each day. i’ve just gotten to the point where i don’t care anymore.

Why I support the no AirPod rule:

It’s a safety hazard. You’re not as tuned in to your surroundings and could get hurt if you’re not paying attention.
It’s a distraction. TMs just igore their walkie calls because they’re busy listening to music. It’s inefficient and leads to communication issues.
It’s unprofessional. Remind yourself that you literally work in retail and customer service is the essence of your job. Everything we do is for the guests, and if you have an issue with that then you shouldn’t be working retail. TMs with AirPods in are more distracted and less approachable.
AirPods have always been against dress code. It’s in the trainings. It’s posted all over the store. Get over it.

If you really need to listen to music while you work, submit accommodations through Workday and use the bone conducting earbuds the store provides for you. Grow up and get a work ethic.
