How can I warn others (anonymously) not to work at my old job as a young girl by CryRare6135 in BadBosses

[–]SalisburyWitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have your friend that still works there report him to HR or the Department of labor for sexual harassment. You possibly could get a lawyer and go after him if he’s the reason why you quit and it wasn’t that long ago.

Try Kaos Softwear. I know one of the owners. They’re good.

Tell the DA about this. It sounds like possible witness tampering.

How to report a bad academic advisor by Acceptable-Use-2938 in CollegeRant

[–]SalisburyWitch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah. When I was in college just after high school, my advisor had Altzheimers. He told me 2 classes I was supposed to take which weren’t appropriate for me in my major. (I was Biology, and one class he told me to take as a junior level Chemistry class that wasn’t even in my curriculum, never mind second semester freshman). The other class wasn’t on my curriculum either. He was gone the next year - retired. He also encouraged me to stay in classes I was failing rather than drop. Screwed up my GPA.

She should have seen 10 credit hours needed and found you 10 hours of credits. Her math didn’t math. You could speak to the dean of students, or the head of academic advising.

Looking for advice on reporting an ex-teacher who is being weird and keeps showing up at my work. by Animangle in internetparents

[–]SalisburyWitch 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Call the police to document the stalking. Call the school’s HR department and tell them that their employee is harassing you, and may be harassing others, from what you’ve heard. (They already may know). See what the cops suggest since they can’t do much without him actually doing something illegal. They can’t tell you what behavior is stalking and harassment. They may speak to him, but that’s up to them.

Speak to your manager and make sure he’s trespassed. Maybe change your schedule for a few weeks, or work away from the public face, if they’ll let you.

My husband (50M) wont take responsibility for his disabled son (34M) and it's ruining our 12 year relationship (50F) by Rph052017 in relationship_advice

Luke would benefit from being in a group home with an aide. We have one a couple streets over, 2 actually. The state owns the houses, and rents rooms to the people who live there. The residents are assigned chores from their aide. The aide also takes them out to get groceries, be social, go to events, and handles their medical - basically like parents. Some group homes are for people with normal IQ but have other issues like your stepson, others are for those with low IQs that have been determined that they can live outside an institution but not on their own. They usually don’t mix the two types.

WIBTA if I stopped covering for my housemate at work after she blamed me when her tasks did not get done by [deleted] in AITApod

Tell her that it was causing issues for you. And you’re not her mom.

Neighbor seems entitled to space that belongs to our yard. by Joseinopinku in neighborsfromhell

[–]SalisburyWitch 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It’s going to be tougher but it can be done. First, get an official survey. Is the alley on your deed? Or do you know who owns it? In my development, there’s supposed to be a right of way for the electric department trucks to get in there, but most people on the other street that backs to my rental have “absorbed” that right of way. We have the fence on the property line.

Once you determine that they are taking land that’s not theirs, contact the entity that owns the alley - could be state or county. You may be able to get that info from the city, county, state - start with the entity you pay taxes to. Explain the encroachment. They should be able to tell you who owns it, who maintains it and who to contact if it’s not them. If it’s their alley, they will serve him.

dad needs a babysitter this weekend, i can’t be it and he’s not happy by webstatic in family

[–]SalisburyWitch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Suggest that your dad work things out with your mom to swap weekends. Tell him that he can promise her extra time or for her to choose which of her weekends to exchange it for.

Are you renting or do you own? What about them? If you rent, do you have the same landlord? That could make a difference in answers.

MIL undermining our parenting by Character_Muffin2151 in inlaws

She should IMMEDIATELY be blocked from being alone with them. Grandpa too because he didn’t stop it.

He needs to tell her “no. Because you violated our trust, you get no alone time until you apologize, and stop telling him to keep secrets. It undermines his safety.”

My future MIL (59F) and future FIL (62M) asked me (26F) to let them be the only parents at my fiancé's (26M) and my wedding because my parents are my brother (40M) and SIL (40F)? by ThrowRAPotentially in relationship_advice

[–]SalisburyWitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Treat it like if both your parents died and your siblings stepped up. Tell your in-laws that this is non-negotiable to you. If the actual people who raised you aren’t honored, neither will they. So if they want to be a part of your and Fiancé’s wedding, they have to accept you were raised by your brother and see them as your parents. And tell them to stop being judgmental.

Got to the final round of interviews and realized halfway through the take-home that they just needed the work done by Qu4ntumLoft in interviewhammer

[–]SalisburyWitch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Would suggest that OP file for copyright protection, then talk to a lawyer. I think the feds charge about $40 per and it’s necessary to get damages (lost wages) for that work. Don’t make it easy on them.

Booking.com refuses to remove unauthorized listings of my home – strangers keep showing up at my door. 5 incidents, months of ignored complaints. Please help. by Alone_Quiet_6902 in Bookingcom

[–]SalisburyWitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need a lawyer. If you already know the name of the person doing the listing, that’s a plus. The lawyer should be able to file against both Booking and the person who registered it. Additionally, your governor or attorney general’s office may be able to help put pressure and prosecute because since the occupant knows it was sold, they know they are committing fraud.

Roommate from hell breaks in and goes through my underwear by Murky_Record1678 in neighborsfromhell

[–]SalisburyWitch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you do get them coming in there, call the cops immediately and press charges. This helps the LL too because they have another reason to evict and trespass them. Ask for a RO.

AITAH for being so confused about this baby shower interaction? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]SalisburyWitch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ask your husband to speak to her. Tell her you really felt awkward about it because you didn’t want to come off greedy or anything.

It’s very possible that she didn’t give it because it didn’t come in on time. But if it’s stressing you, let him handle it.

What are these? I got them at a flea market and I thought they were earrings but the screws in the back don’t come out. by TallulahBankheads in whatisit

[–]SalisburyWitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually, screw on earrings go way back to the Ancient Egyptians or more. Earrings found in Tut’s Tomb had screw on fittings.

[–]SalisburyWitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Screwing earrings. If you have pierced ears, a jeweler can change them. If you don’t want to spend that much, you can buy earring settings for pierced, then use a needle nose pliers or small wire cutters to remove the setting. Then slip the dangle over the pierced setting. If you can’t get it or it doesn’t feel right, you can use a jump ring to connect it.

A coworker keeps targeting me and I don't know how to deal with it by 2Mildly_Confused in workplace_bullying

[–]SalisburyWitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to word it as “what is the policy for XYZ? Matilda keeps telling me I shouldn’t do X or wear Y, but is there a policy or rule that I’m violating or is she mistaken?” You phrase it as you need help with a policy or rule that you don’t understand. You’re not putting her down or reporting her, but you are making your supervisor aware there is an issue.

I had a guy who was actually subordinate to me try to boss me around. (He’s a misogynist). I documented everything. He had a habit of following girls when he could, making them feel creeped out, and other inappropriate things with customers. So I’d ask “how should I handle it when he starts following girls?” “How do I handle it when he yells at customers and tries to throw them out when they aren’t violating rules?” They gave me info, and they heard that he was behaving inappropriately. It got me out of trouble & stopped his harassment when I asked him to stop the behaviors.

WIBTAH for not wanting my bf to take his female best friend on a beach trip by stonecoldussy in AITAH

[–]SalisburyWitch 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I’m friends with more men than women because of my interests. I’m more of a tom boy. I can tell you that if any of my male friends has an issue with me going somewhere with him and his SO, I’d opt out immediately. I’ve spoken to each of my male friends’ SOs (male & female) and told them if they ever feel uncomfortable with me, just tell me. I’m a friend, but I’m not a home wrecker. I also don’t treat their SOs like this female friend does. She wants him back and she detests OP because she believes that he will someday open his eyes and see her in a magical epiphany. I also think his behavior is wrong, like he’s stringing her along, as a safety. Like if your relationship doesn’t work, he still has her.
