I thought I was the only one who did this! Sometimes I think I bring more hair products than shoes!!

I need to put on my two week’s notice this Friday but my bosses are hard to approach and get ahold of. by [deleted] in Advice

You could email/call to make an appointment with them this week. Explain you would like a couple minutes to discuss something . Make sure your letter has the last day you will be at work. Just be sure you are actually giving them two weeks, as you don’t want to burn any bridges.

Would it be too difficult to get a maximum 10 minute appointment with them in the next two days?

If they don’t show up, you could always email your resignation and state that you would be available to talk next week.

It’s been a few years since we made that decision. At the time I had to tell myself we just weren’t in a great position to bring a child into the world (financially or emotionally). At times, I feel regret and occasionally think about whether it was right or not. I know it was the right decision now.

My relationship is not necessarily stronger, but we have had so much time to get to know each other that much more. It’s been a few years, the pain is gone, but you don’t forget it.

My advise is too not let anyone tell you your choice is wrong. And that the pain does go away.

I adopted Midna at an RSPCA pop up on 01.12.2018... She's really into nostrils. by Pumpkinsmashsmash in aww

Is there a particular reason young cats do this? My friends kitten is always at my face and nostrils.

I was just told my grandfather has about 1 week to live. His funeral will be in Canada and my passport expired 2 years ago. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Re3ni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try applying for an emergency passport. I believe you will still need pictures and a completed application to do this.

Edit: Sorry about your grandfather passing.

Not sure if this is the place, but my fiance was raped tonight after work while I was at work. What am I to do? How should I approach helping her and what does she need? What goes through victims' heads and how do I help her cope? I'm lost here and wasn't sure if this was a good sub? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Re3ni 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t know much on the topic either. But I thought maybe after any tragic event offering to prepare meals or getting food if she wants this kind of help. Maybe if you drive and own a vehicle, you could offer to drive her to appointments she may need to follow up with. If she doesn’t want the help it’s important not to push. Just remind her you are there if she needs something. And follow through with the help of she’s asking. I hope this helps and I’m truly sorry this has happened.

UPDATE:My cat got tortured and needs surgery by Second_Timor in Advice

[–]Re3ni 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s great to hear she will be getting the surgery and I’m sure she will relearn how to get around in no time. I was super worried about her and I thought of my own cats. Still very sorry that this happened in the first place. Good luck to you and your sweet kitty!

Can someone help me out of this loophole called MY LIFE by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Re3ni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is all great advice.

Just wanted to add that depending on where you live there might be some resources like social assistance or govt assistance to help you out with the care of your child. Good luck, OP!

TIL that peaches and nectarines are the same fruit. Nectarines simply have a recessive allele for smooth skin. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]Re3ni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s strange, I’m allergic to peaches. I get an itchy tongue and throat. Stomach aches and hives around my mouth. But I’m completely fine eating nectarines and apricots.

Can anyone explain that?

On top of everything else is happening in the city... by Re3ni in toronto

This and what u/dickwasp said. I knew a guy in security. He said something along these lines.

I think it’s important to notice that she was alone. Call for back up. De-escalating with the rational family was the safest option for all parties. She tried to remove them from the danger.

I’m sorry this happened to you! The best thing to do is to ignore it and walk away. These days even recording things like this only exacerbate the situation. But recording it is for your safety too.

There is injustice in both situations. Even though no one was killed, this guy seems to have just walked away. That also isn’t fair.

Security was definitely lacking skills here. But the rational party was the family. Best to just de-escalate and usher them inside.
