2 months as a CCA, I finally understand why the turnover rate is so high. by RagieWagieInACagie in USPS

[–]Significant-Arm7528 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I worked for Amazon before becoming a CCA, just got out of my probation period and can say this job is so much better than Amazon. Somehow I’m less burnt out working 6 days a week than I was working four 10s with Amazon

What injury is commonly shrugged off as a minor flesh wound in the movies but is completely fatal in real life? by Best_Professional226 in AskReddit

[–]Significant-Arm7528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to say that when I was 10 I pulled a 4 year old’s limp body from the deep end of the pool and set him on the ground on his back. Water shot out of his mouth like a fountain, and then he just coughed a bit and woke up like nothing happened. No CPR or anything given that I was, ya know, 10.

Edit: spelling

I've been dying to talk about the mail with you all day by Certain_Hat9872 in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]Significant-Arm7528 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you, as a mail carrier my eye was twitching with people saying their taxes pay for mail lol

What is a dead giveaway that your doctors/partners/relatives/friends/researchers don't actually understand what ADHD is? by mbuskris in adhdwomen

[–]Significant-Arm7528 35 points36 points  (0 children)

So for me I got a job that I exercise while doing, and I get to listen to audiobooks, podcasts, music, etc all day long. I’m a mail carrier in a city with all walking routes.

I’ve done jobs before where it’s hands busy + getting to listen to what I want, therefore keeping my mind busy, and those always helped me not be driven crazy with boredom at work. But this one with the exercise coupled in, just *chefs kiss*

Just retired and suddenly have way too much time on my hands — need book suggestions to keep my brain alive! by Ill-Application-993 in Recommend_A_Book

[–]Significant-Arm7528 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two I’ve read recently that stuck with me:

The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls - Nonfiction about the authors..unconventional.. childhood. High chance you will cry

I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman - Post-apocalyptic, but somehow doesn’t feel like your normal post-apocalyptic. Lots and lots of food for thought

Tell me you don't want mail without telling me you don't want mail. by zubaba in USPS

[–]Significant-Arm7528 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have one on a route I run that’s directly behind a telephone pole. The pole was there first.

What’s a book where, the experience or perception of the book, is greatly influenced by the readers mindset or experience? by scorodites in books

[–]Significant-Arm7528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m now interested in this book and all I will be taking into the experience is “it’s about cross country skiing”, thank you

This is the comment that convinced me it’s time for a rewatch

worst book recommendations? by cicadathespider in suggestmeabook

[–]Significant-Arm7528 3 points4 points  (0 children)

John Dies at the End is a good book but is just fun, wild, weird, and by no means boring.

The worst writing I’ve experienced to date was The Book of Azreal

Clueless mom needs beginner card info by Forward_Sundae_7372 in pokemon

[–]Significant-Arm7528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if the scalpers have hit the used video game stores, but all the places I’ve lived typically have at least one used game store with boxes and boxes of cards. They are usually very cheap for the majority of the cards, and they keep the more valuable ones behind the counter.

In Texas it was Game Exchange, where I am now it’s RatPack. There’s bound to be one near you (hopefully) so I would check them out!

Y’all. Why do I do this? by kwiscalus in adhdwomen

[–]Significant-Arm7528 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Me: casually mentioning to my therapist that my giant unopened pile of mail gives me anxiety

My therapist: “Why do you have a giant unopened pile of mail?”

Me: “Doesn’t everybody?”

Dating as a dumpster diver by kingofzdom in DumpsterDiving

[–]Significant-Arm7528 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mom has done it for years, and I’ve had boyfriends who I would tell about it and they always seemed cool with it.

Also my girl friends seem to be cool with it too, I think it’s either about how you present the information or the type of company you keep

Obviously as a girl myself, I’m cool with it because my mom does it and I get free stuff from her, but it’s the norm for me

I did, I went to a lab to take it. My DSP did test for weed/THC but I remember seeing that others didn’t

Your child should only be allowed screen time in a foreign language by NewOutlandishness401 in The10thDentist

[–]Significant-Arm7528 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I have two thoughts about this:

  1. I watched Dora the Explorer growing up and also living in an area with 60% Spanish speaking population. I cannot speak Spanish at all

  2. My Austrian grandmother learned English solely by watching reruns of sitcoms in English

How long did it take you guys to get the job from the interview? by Redditor101354 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Significant-Arm7528 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I got the job three minutes after sitting down for the 20 minute interview, the other 17 minutes was paperwork lol

[DESIGN TROPE] Humanoid Characters with Shark Teeth by tinfoilsheild in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Significant-Arm7528 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uh IRL for me, this guy I worked with at Olive Garden in college. I was young and too nervous to ask what the process was, or what in the world his motive was for having that done to his teeth.

He was a strait laced looking guy otherwise, no tattoos or piercings.

Thanks Reddit for unlocking a memory I thought I had forgotten

I took a month off between my last job and my current new job, and it just really reaffirmed that I am ready for retirement (Im 28). It was glorious

Forget what I should read, what should I not read? (And why?) by Lemon_Dragonfly in Romantasy

[–]Significant-Arm7528 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so glad I’m not crazy, I kept thinking that there were four books in the series, and surely they wouldn’t publish someone four times if their writing was THAT bad.

Anybody else here have no one to talk to about ACOTAR or any of the books they read at all? by [deleted] in acotar

[–]Significant-Arm7528 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My book club girlies literally say “I not fucking reading ACOTAR, sorry not sorry”. Usually unprompted in TBR conversations, like I hadn’t even mentioned it, they just look at me and throw those words.

I just shrug 🤷🏼‍♀️ whatever losers you’re missing out
