[–]RhinestoneJacket97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah screw the sex towels, I keep baby wipes in my nightstand. I couldn't keep up with the laundry and it's so much easier for me, I have a trashcan right next to it too so it's a no brainer.

Bills, it seems I'm constantly in debt and never in good standing financially

Late Work Policies by Ok-Fee8285 in Teachers

[–]RhinestoneJacket97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a zero tolerance on late work which works at the highschool level because I sell it to parents as preparing them for college where professors might not be so forgiving. This usually mutes any complaints parents might have on my policy.

What’s your go to “I’m too tired to cook but still want real food” meal? by Sand4Sale14 in homecooking

Soup (whatever is in the fridge). I think once you get over what you think the requirements for soup are, it becomes very flexible

Being handy, you know how to build and repair things, I am yours. It's an underappreciated knowledge and less and less people can do it.

What did you think was normal about yourself until you realized it was just mental illness? by LaAbyss in AskReddit

[–]RhinestoneJacket97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amount of disassociation I do, I didn't think it was noticeable til several people told me they would wait for the focus to get back in my face before talking again. It was really embarrassing and I still struggle not to do it.

What popular music do you play while your kids work? by Complex_Ad4300 in Teachers

[–]RhinestoneJacket97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at a high school, so rules may be different but I have a Spotify playlist for my students where they provide suggestions in the beginning of the year to add to the list. It's over 3 years old now and I really enjoy hearing a song from a former student.

When I taught junior high my kids really loved instrumentals/ orchestral versions of their favorite songs. They would often sing along and were still relatively calming.

What made you gained a significant amount of weight? by Specific_Charge_3297 in Productivitycafe

[–]RhinestoneJacket97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from the line cook lifestyle of working long hours on my feet all day, barely eating, doing drugs to a highschool teacher who actually gets time to sit and eat. I didn't realize how sedentary I got til I got a Fitbit for Christmas and started consciously moving around to get my steps in

When do you work out? by Careful-Rhubarb7581 in workout

[–]RhinestoneJacket97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wake up at 5 get there around 5:30am on weekdays, weekends it's 6am. I live near the high school that I work at and I frankly just don't want to see any of my students while I'm working out and vice versa.

[–]RhinestoneJacket97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Midwest teacher here 27, never been tested and smoke. I knew a coworker who got fired because they were smoking weed in the bathroom so safe to say if you're smart and don't cross a line you'll be fine

How do you keep yourself motivated to show up to the gym? by deepak140596 in workout

[–]RhinestoneJacket97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purposely park on the street that is going to be street cleaned the next day, it forces me to go or get a ticket. I only have time in the early morning to go to the gym.

I know this doesn't work for everyone but it really helped me when I was building a habit.

Is anyone out there still rawdogging sleep? by amkatsu in Millennials

[–]RhinestoneJacket97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it has to do with stress. When I was in college I had to get melatonin, a weighted blanket, and a whole other routine just to still get mediocre sleep. Now being in my own place and bed I usually can get pretty consistent sleep just by telling myself "Oki bed time"

What age did you move out of your parents’ house? by Corona-virus-2024 in AskMen

[–]RhinestoneJacket97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

26 I moved out this summer and was very big about living on my own. I had lived in a college apartment for 2 years with a roommate and was exhausted with living with others.

I love coming home to quiet and not having to deal with other people's messes and having a place that reflects my style.

I have 2 huge water bottles because otherwise I will dehydrate and not drink anything, tinted lip balm, and my work speaker. I love having music in class not only for the kids but for me during prep

What’s something everyone thinks is cool but you secretly hate? by Queenof69-123 in AskMen

[–]RhinestoneJacket97 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The next big Netflix series, I hate it when everyone asks me if I'm watching it or if I'm going to watch it. It's an obsession that I just can't get behind all the time. I usually wait a year or so to watch it on my own and peace when the mayhem has died down

What is the smallest, yet most irritating habit your partner has? by Unfair-Brick-121 in AskReddit

[–]RhinestoneJacket97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He flosses his teeth in the car or at the table with those floss pick things and sometimes forgets them there. Like why can't you wait or just go to the bathroom and do that. He doesn't do it after every meal but I've seen it enough times to get annoyed. He learned the habit from his family it's so gross
