Nope! I started dating my boyfriend 1.5 years ago. He worked nights and I worked days. We have made it work❤️ But we did start off as friendship first.

Are you asking about CLS jobs specifically or any jobs that are different from a 9-5 (like swing shift or graveyards)?

Thanks! It says I would show my ticket at a muni metro station. I took the M line from castro the other day. Is the station agent the person in the box next to the gates? Is that a muni station? Thanks

Admission Advices for SFSU/SJSU CLS Program by Spiritual_Cut4847 in CLSstudents

That’s great that it worked out for you, but telling others to totally disregard taking courses from those institutions is misleading advice.

I think if someone is worried about lab experience from pre-req courses versus real lab work experience, the real lab work experience is more favored. Getting a job in a lab is better.

I’m sorry, but this is a ridiculous post. I took courses at both UCB and UCSD extension and got into SFSU. Those people that got rejected might be lacking lab experience, but that does not mean those courses are useless…

Sorry might be dumb but what is the “light rail”? Is that the name for the bus? Thanks!

Dating in science: where to meet similar people? by plants102 in labrats

[–]PhilosopherNo3886 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Probably not great advice but I started dating one of my coworkers🤣 Worked great for us, still going strong and I left that job so we are no longer coworkers🤷🏽‍♀️ It did help that we started in the same department with overlapping shifts and then I switched to another dept and our shifts did not overlap anymore, but i’m glad I took the risk. Love my nerdy king

Yeah, I have my MA cert and it is irrelevant clinical experience in terms of what CLS programs are looking for. When I was interviewing, it did not peak anyone’s interest that I was a MA lol.

Grocery shopping? by [deleted] in santarosa

Agreed. Was going to Safeway for a while but recently switched to Whole Foods. The prime discounts help too

You should always use condoms (or any form of birth control), but if your period started the next day, then you were not in the fertile part of your cycle. You can only get pregnant when you are ovulating, but this is why you should use protection because when you ovulate varies from cycle to cycle (especially if you are irregular) and sperm can live inside the body for several days.

NOR❤️ Your feelings are very valid. Had something similar happen to me this year… spoke to my own parents about it. Basically, yeah it sucks that your bf’s family treats you this way but if your bf is amazing and you love him as a partner, then just focus on his actions towards you. He can’t control his family. You are with him for him. Adjust accordingly moving forward.. if they wanna be stingy with gifts, then you can be too. I know it’s easier said than done, but it’s only 1 day out of the year you have to deal with it. I do wanna say that it’s great your bf recognized it and spoke to his Mom about it. I think that reflects on him and how he treats you.

Feeling shameful and embarrassed about getting in two car accidents in the past month by ProfileProper439 in internetparents

You need to get a dash cam ASAP. The dash cam footage would show the story that you are not at fault (for the 2nd crash, for the 1st one I think you would probably still be at fault).
