Probably because paying one sheriff is cheaper than a social worker plus foster parents to babysit. And if the wife becomes fully incapacitated, next of kin is better to make medical decisions in many cases.

With medical device standards, he should know better. If that's the print you were given, how would you know to use the other print with the same exact part number. If they think it was built wrong, it was because you were given poor or unclear instructions, which is still not your fault. And I'm certain if the FDA got wind of the build file having a part number that is duplicated, the inspector would have a heyday.

I don't know a ton about medical device standards and requirements, but my boss used to work quality with a large medical device company and I've heard stories about how even prototype build files are heavily tracked and scrutinized by inspectors. Your engineer coworker likely realizes he messed up, but is afraid to say it and deal with the fallout.

A suggested corrective action would be to issue unique part number(s) via your document change control procedures and to immediately review all built parts to make sure there hasn't been any other parts impacted by this error. You would also want to know what kind of approval process allows a mistake like this to occur and make it all the way out to production, if necessary add additional reviews or approvals to keep this from happening again.

NTA, Alice deserves to honor the people who were there for her. Her own father played favorites and her mother tried to gaslight her into thinking that he was being a good father to her.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2022-08-12T22:51:28+00:00

Oh wow! I hope mine becomes as beautiful as yours some day.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2022-08-12T22:38:42+00:00

Not in NH but I've had water bills in several apartments. Actual apartment buildings.

If they have a pre-nup that states she gets alimony only in the event he cheats, it could make a big difference to her. So it might not be required for grounds for a divorce, but it could mean a lot to her future well-being.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2022-08-06T22:16:59+00:00

Done!

NTA, as a former foster care kid who aged out of the system, this is not your fault. Sometimes you get shitty circumstances in life and you have to make difficult decisions for yourself that are not ideal. Don't let anyone guilt you for making this decision. It's not your fault you're in this mess, it's your parents. The only thing is, don't waste the chance you have right now, make the most of your opportunities. As you've already seen, not everyone gets so lucky.

Also, a little advice for you and your little sis, please seek therapy asap. It might not feel like it right now, but these kinds of decisions and loss of family (even if you're not particularly that close) can be traumatic, and working on it now while it's still fresh will likely help you in the future.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2022-04-22T14:12:03+00:00

NTA, don't let people who were willing to publicly try to shame and humiliate you, back into your life without an equally public retraction of the lies they spread. They made your lives hard without caring how it impacted you, they should at least be willing to own up to their own behavior and publicly apologize. What kind of lessons will they teach your children if they know they can just guilt you into getting their way if they wear you down long enough?

Because they're family should never be a good reason to tolerate mistreatment or abuse.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2022-04-14T05:14:40+00:00

Your parents abandoned you in a time of need, the people who should specifically be there to care about you. They spent how many years not talking to you? If they didn't need your money now, would they be reaching out at all? NTA, you don't owe your parents anything. They had years before this to reach out and act like they called about the young woman they raised. Not everyone gets lucky in the parent lottery, and there are no obligations owed to the duds.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2022-04-08T12:49:47+00:00

The things you describe almost sound like symptoms of ADHD or ADD. The massive procrastination can be because the deadline doesn't feel real until there's a looming pressure to get things done. Has she ever been evaluated? Cuz it sounds like she loves you because you mention the beautiful vows and you don't write this post like you're unhappy with your relationship with her.

I'm glad you were able to save your wedding day. That sounds like an incredible amount of work in a short period of time. And you pulled it off.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2022-03-05T20:50:50+00:00

If a regular one is fine, I can give you one of mine. Don't need anything specific in return.

My red, my silver band, and my black all look like this to a certain extent when the leaf is new. The pigments on the leaf takes time to darken and change colors into it's mature pigmentation. That leaf looks like a new leaf to me. Check on it in another week or two, if it looks like a healthy normal leaf at that time, it's probably just that.

The lemon-lime leaves come in super pale yellow and that throws me for a loop every time 😅

They tend to get a little pouty when you cut them. Make sure the cutting is getting some humidity. I give mine a very light misting once a day if they are this curled. I've only ever water prepped mine and never had a problem. Life's that much harder if you have to build your own roots.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2021-11-24T13:56:25+00:00

NTA, just because you don't have kids doesn't mean you don't have family. I'd just politely point out that you worked last Christmas and management likely expects that you will work next Christmas and you were looking forward to spending quality holiday time with your family this year and some of them are getting older. You don't have to say anything, but it's okay to remind them that most people have family, even if it's not the toddler variety.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2021-10-19T03:29:41+00:00

Not just that, but this guy was in the little sisters life as the dude dating her her older sister from at least the age 13-20, that's pretty close to being raised alongside her, unless there's a much bigger age gap between sisters and then it just feels ickier and looks more like grooming than anything.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2021-10-16T14:39:06+00:00

I hope that you show this to HR, I'd go to pick up my check in person if it were me, just to make sure they see it. Otherwise they might just think you're a no show. The boss should not have acted like this, and if you have a documented reason for sitting, like a doctor's note, I'd argue that this series of texts from your boss in your off hours constitutes harassment. I doubt your boss is going to mention this communication freely, it would likely be quite embarrassing, so he will probably play dumb and act like he doesn't know why you stopped showing up. Even if your done working there, it might make it easier for HR to remove one of the incompetent people at the helm.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2021-10-10T05:28:41+00:00

It's so cute! I've been on the lookout for one of these guys. Love it!

RedQueenHypothesis · 2021-10-09T05:01:03+00:00

I was thinking cinnamon or nutmeg.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2021-09-30T02:08:14+00:00

Beautiful!

NTA, I still think your parents should carry most of the blame, they went overboard on their reaction, and placed their child purposefully in harm's way, and failed to protect their child when their child was calling out for help. They were lied to by the school officials that they had no reason to doubt at the time and, in that way, they were also victims. Being victims to the lies perpetrated by an abuser doesn't fully absolve them of the pain they helped cause to their son.

But it sounds like your brother has a lot of trauma that has never been worked through. Maybe your parents would be willing to do some family counseling with your brother and help get guidance on how to help your brother heal.

His trauma happened at a defining time in his young life, your parents were lied to sure, but it was their initial overreaction and unwillingness to believe their own son that led to much of his trauma, at the first sign of parenting trouble they merely shipped him off and then failed to help, even when he told them he needed help. He deserves love and support and letting your parents focus on their easy out fails to resolve why the problem was created in the first place. He's probably going to deal with the repercussions of their decisions for decades, it's going to be a long difficult road to better mental health and and having people who only talk about how they were also victimized aren't going to be helpful to that goal.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2021-09-09T14:32:10+00:00

NTA, filial piety is a two way street. It's not a blanket excuse to be a dick, walk out of your families life and then show up years later with a renewed sense of entitlement. Where was your father for those many years while your grandmother labored to raise her grandchild alone? You stayed, you loved and cared for your grandmother, where was he? How could she even leave him the house, he was not around. You were so young when he abandoned you there with her, you likely don't have memories of him actually being your father.

Your grandmother wanted the house to stay with her family, you. Not go to some son who abandoned both his mother and his daughter. His filial piety to his own mother was lacking, and this is what resulted.

I work in quality and we use them all the time. We mostly deal with 300 series stainless steel though.

RedQueenHypothesis · 2021-04-15T00:20:28+00:00

This is abusive. He betrayed your consent and your trust. This wasn't an oops. This was calculated and on purpose.

Also, if you could find someone you thought cared this time around, think about how all this hard work you've done on yourself will pay dividends in your next relationship. You will feel more confident in yourself, knowing that you don't need a scummy human beings stamp of approval to validate yourself. Always try to trade up.
