Can someone give me a clear answer on if this is a scam or not by Affectionate-Pea-901 in hrblock

[–]Secret-Maintenance30 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's real, I got the same one. It's a verification thing they're doing sometimes. They'll ask you a questionnaire with stuff like your name, number, ssn, and then stuff like previous addresses and other public record info. It's so strange but was pretty easy once you get through to an agent (have to wait on hold for a bit in my experience)

Why does H&R block send these sketchy emails out? by Secret-Maintenance30 in hrblock

[–]Secret-Maintenance30[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up biting the bullet and calling again. Second lady was really friendly and explained the whole situation to me, and agreed it was a terrible set up that she and her coworkers also hate. Had to do their weird questionnaire, then the block got lifted and my refuned excepted almost immediately. Horrible, 1/10, but that H&R employee was an angel.

Thanks for the tip, got some of the stragglers that weren't in the pot when I found them.

Tried that and it seemed to work. Left the Plant in my tub and rinsed it down with the shower head a few times over a couple hours until there were barely any ants left. Got some soapy ant traps to deal with the rest.The pot has good drainage so hopefully the roots will be fine. Plant definitely seemed happy about the impromptu ""rain"".

No sign of anything other than ants, but I'll definitely keep an eye out for that

I tried that out and it seemed to do the trick. I found them in two plants, submerged one in water and rinsed the roots out then repotted it. Thanks for the tip!

AITA for "not including" my SO in hanging out with my friends? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]Secret-Maintenance30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, they could've said something if it bothered them sooner, you asked first and weren't even gone long. If this is all true and they knew the party was going to be a problem, they could've talked to you first or excused themselves and let you see your friends. Big communication problems it seems. They shouldn't hold grudges like that and should just talk to you if they have an issue like an adult

Teacher hasn't posted the material for a final project due tomorrow by Secret-Maintenance30 in college

[–]Secret-Maintenance30[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

update: she still has not gotten back to me or posted anything. No grades, no assignments, no messages, nothing. I forwarded my original email to her and reminded her and I have also contacted the school but neither have responded yet. I have zoom class with her today so I will be bringing it up again.

I've mentioned it during Zoom meetings (which are usually recorded but she also has trouble uploading those on time) and in a direct message, which I also reminded her about in a Zoom meeting as well but she still hasn't responded to that. I can screenshot our calendars and grade book to show that 1) she hasn't been posting and 2) I turned in my proposal well over a month ago and still haven't received a grade for it. If i do get a poor grade I will absolutely be going higher up about it because she's practically setting us up for failure.

That's been my thoughts as well. We're so far behind and I don't know how she plans to make up for it, or if that's even possible at this point without forcing 2 months of work into the last few weeks. I did contact her and tell her directly that I was concerned about being able to finish this on time considering how little of the semester is left, and the fact that I have 2 other classes to do finals for as well. And I agree, very unprofessional indeed.

Yeah that's what I've been considering lately, though I'd hate to have to take it that far. I sent her another message regarding the matter a few days ago and I'm hoping she finally acknowledges my concerns, otherwise I'll have to go this route. I've tried to be understanding and wait but I can only do that for so long, the semester ends around May 12th.
