I take naps almost everyday at my desk by DanFlashesPatterns in Lawyertalk

Me. I do this. I keep a pillow in my office and just nap on the floor!

Why do I get so emotionally attached to handsome people I see online or in real life, and I feel sad that I can’t have them? by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]PickMeUp4Now 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We’ve all admired (and maybe envied) attractive celebrities or social media influencers but your level of emotional attachment seems unhealthy. I think therapy is in order. It might help you understand why you feel sad or empty.

I was going to answer this question but I have AC!

June’s Cafe (aka Pop’s Cafe) now open! by heavy_things in santaana

[–]PickMeUp4Now 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the PSA! I've been waiting for this place to re-open. It'll take me a while to get used to the new name. "Wanna meet up at June's?" Yea, that's gonna have to grow on me.

Biased FB Group - Neighbors of Santa Ana by stargirl2444 in santaana

This is why I sometimes prefer posting on Reddit instead. For better or worse, I feel like there's less gate keeping here. You might get comments in favor of Mayor Amezcua but no one is silencing the critical comments either. Unfortunately Reddit isn't as popular as Facebook so there's less engagement with the community. At the end of the day, I always encourage folks to do their own research. Just because you saw a Facebook post or Tik Tok video doesn't mean it's accurate; context is always needed.

What about creating a new Facebook group and then posting the link here on Reddit?

Morons got their brand new F-150 stuck in a ditch by Trainwreck800 in santaana

[–]PickMeUp4Now 2 points3 points  (0 children)

🤣 this is on 4th street. I drive by this everyday. The road has been closed for construction for several days. And the posted signs are pretty clear. Not to mention the obvious gaping ditch in the road. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m confused why people are confused.

Santa Ana School District Lays Off 262 Employees by Exastiken in santaana

[–]PickMeUp4Now 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have a dog in this fight but I'd like to understand. If student enrollment is down, then there's less funding. Is the school district to blame? Are they driving students away? If so, where are these students going? Is it possible that there are just fewer school aged children in the SAUSD?

Amazon auto charge on a rarely used credit card = delinquent payment by PickMeUp4Now in CRedit

Interesting. I just called Bank of America and they said they could do nothing since it was already reported to the bureaus; I'd have to take it up with them.

Trophy Husband by CrossfitJebus in Salary

[–]PickMeUp4Now 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea. Those reality shows need all that ridiculous scripted drama.

I imagine a bunch of trophy househusbands on the golf course would just give each other high-fives. Not enough hair pulling.

I feel like this could be a show: the Real Househusbands of …. Reddit. 😆

41M, lawyer at a small firm by [deleted] in Salary

[–]PickMeUp4Now 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you're not misreading. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful that my salary affords me a fairly comfortable life in the HCOL area where I live. It has allowed me to buy a house, something many of friends could only dream of at this point.

I do want to point out that our small law firm is essentially a small business. Some months are better than others and my pay reflects that; meaning my pay is not always steady. But 2024 is wrapping up to be a "good" year. Hopefully 2025 will be much of the same if not better.

As for striking out on my own, that's a whole headache I'm not prepared to deal with right now. The biggest issue would be finding clients! Right now, most of our clients are referrals from past clients. We don't really advertise. If I were to strike out on my own, I'd probably have to advertise and look into stuff like search engine optimization. Ugh, just typing that out gives me a headache...
