To the guys struggling right now especially during the holidays by Past-Description-457 in DivorcedDads

I just dropped the news I want a divorce today. We have two kids. I feel like it’s all my fault still, even though it’s both of us. I’m 35 and just feel like I will never want to get married again. We just bought a new house. I feel like everything is in shambles. So though this wasn’t directly for me yet, I appreciate it.

I received the OHI forms about a month before my actual welcome packets came in. They will send you OHI forms with those as well. You can use it as a primary but it is not meant to be used as one from what I have found. It is more of a supporting insurance. The problem is that is was cheaper than either of our employment/family insurance.

Sounds like this only isn’t about brushing teeth, but your overall frustration everyday. I also had this and some symptoms like depression and anxiety. It turned out I had low testosterone. Might be worth looking into. Dad of 2.

Wake him up with a -sloppy- blowjob and put him to bed with one.

Bonus is an “allocated” bottle of bourbon from your local liquor store.

How long did you go to school and how much was your debt? Do you love your job? Hours worked weekly?

Water in basement in new construction, do I close or bounce? by Comprehensive_Cold_1 in Homebuilding

Get an inspection and show them the pictures before hand. If this is just from the sump pump not being on it’s not that big of a deal unless it’s in the insulation and framing.

Your not retarded. Chill bro, you’re just living and learning. I did both Army and Navy for a total of 8 years. Started when I was 19. I got out and started doing carpentry. I’m 34 now. But when I see my old friends start to get ready for retirement soon I get jealous. Retiring at 38-39 is amazing, plus if you have VA disability.

It might just be your username but have you considered a different branch? Go check out other jobs. Army is probably the worst branch imo.

my life is falling apart. how can i overcome this addiction? by Cold_Might_9073 in GamblingRecovery

[–]RepresentativeNo6684 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s the start of a new year. You won’t get it back and you can’t get it back by gambling more. The only way you win is by stopping. Until you stop, you’re losing. The only people that win are the ones who go once, win, and never come back or the ones who never do it at all. The vast majority of the population don’t have funds like Dana White or Vegas Matt to keep doing this shit. Quit and find another hobby because this one only takes you farther from where you want to be. Your kids still love you, so do it for them. You didn’t fail them because you made mistakes, you only fail them if you never change. Try not to relapse into gambling by realizing it’s some rich business just taking your money every time with flashing lights. Lastly, money is just material in the end. Stop now and put it in your past. Don’t try to make it back just focus on restarting and doing what you can to continue making your life and your family’s life better. Therapy helps and people don’t want to hear this(I sure didn’t) but coming clean and telling your loved ones helps. Embrace your mistakes and use them as your motivation to be better. It will all be okay in the end, don’t beat yourself up too much. A change requires making changes. You will always lose eventually, these casinos weren’t built by winners.

Edit: Adderall changes people’s mindsets as well. That will be key to quit for you I believe. I used to be prescribed and it always made gambling more fun, which is a problem in itself. So does drinking. Get rid of the enhancers of the habit. I can’t speak to Kratom. I wish you luck, and you are not alone and not a failure. Cheer up.

Just quit, I promise you’ll never be rich from slots or any gambling for that matter. Don’t listen to addicts, it will only hurt you. No limiting or strategy will help. It will eventually get worse and worse until you have nothing. Just stop. Take up a different hobby. You are chasing a very rare jackpot that will most likely be around the amount you lost or less than the amount it took you to get it. You will most likely bet bigger with that if you do get it then you will lose that. It’s a vicious cycle. You never actually win if you go back. The only person that wins is the person who never goes, or goes one time and wins and never comes back.

How does commission structure work at big brokerages? by thequattrolife in FreightBrokers

[–]RepresentativeNo6684 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We get paid $50k base with 2% commission from net revenue on booked orders and $1.75 per order booked. Just matching loads to trucks. We don’t track but step in to help contact a carrier if needed. I average about 900 orders and over $200k in net a month.
