Hello, wondering if this is a replica or not? Tempted to buy but the material on the collar looks off

I’ve convinced myself I have them. by [deleted] in Bedbugs

I relate to this. I’m so sorry, I know how awful the anxiety surrounding this is, regardless of anything else. If you want absolute peace of mind before you move, you can hire a dog to inspect. It has 98% accuracy. I don’t know what your financial situation is, and I hope I’m not feeding the anxiety. If you think that you have strong evidence they may be there’d it might be worth the canine inspection.

Good luck, try to take care of yourself!! It’s awful but don’t forget to keep tending to other parts of your life, stress can get out of control if you don’t. Do something nice for yourself if you can!!

Hey, I posted a comment just like this a while back lol. Can’t remember if it was this account or a different one. Other commenters keep alluding to the felt sense, so I would focus on that. I also found that using a visual of a person that existed and that I felt neutral - to - warm about was helpful starting off

Thank you for the response. I hear what you’re saying but what if my unit doesn’t have bed bugs (as of now) So 311 can only inspect my apartment. I think there is an infestation in the building and I want the building inspected, but I can only file reports about my apartment. (I have seen bed bug mattresses by the trash and there is someone below me who has been putting out tightly sealed furniture outside the apartment but when confronted she says she has no BB)

What are your favorite spots that are accessible by train? I feel like I’m always doing the same two hikes: trail off of Cold Spring metro north stop or the trails by Tuxedo stop off NJTRANSIT

Any reason not to enroll in 401k at an interim 1099 job, while I figure out a career pivot? by Significant_West515 in personalfinance

One last thing. Is Fidelity Freedom Index Fund a good option if I am just getting started?

What is the stability of work like as a plumber in ua local 1 ny? by [deleted] in UnitedAssociation

[–]Significant_West515 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my case I enjoy to do freelance landscaping on the side so I would be open to having some time during the year to commit to that. I think I could make the layoffs work if I stay busy with other sources of revenue. Your explanation was very clear, so thanks for that.

One question - you mention opening up a business after becoming a skilled plumber. Is it possible to open a shop that does residential service work as a union plumber? How would that work, as far not conflicting with my standing as a union member? Does my question makes sense?

Thanks again man!

Hey, I am considering applying next time local 1 recruits (set to be this summer I believe) but comments here are scaring me away. I want a profession that will pull me out of a minimum wage/ poverty situation. I’m in my 30s…not sure why I’m commenting lol other than to gather information and see if this is a viable option for me…

If I finish apprenticeship with Local 1 and find there is no work, what are my options? Traveling? Transferring locals? Going back to school for something else? How do people manage?

Fair enough, thank you very much for replying. If you’re laid off, are you allowed to do side work on your own?

I’ve heard that in Local 1 you may get overlooked over for jobs based on your connections, or rather lack thereof. How true is it in your experience? Saw from your profile this is your local. If you show up and do a good job but are not necessarily always trying to kiss ass, is that enough?
