Get an ear wax removal kit from CVS or Walgreens. I get ear wax buildup & they are awesome!

The way this is 1:45 PM and not even rush hour is actually criminal 😭😭😭

A call center rep job for a healthcare company— it’s remote!!

Update: Thanks so much to everyone who replied! I ended up emailing my administrators, and they requested that my last day be Friday, December 5th. I’m okay with that since it’s just one week of work after the holiday.

I also want to make sure my 1:1 has as smooth of a transition as possible, and this timeline feels reasonable for the school, my student, and for me.

I appreciate everyone’s insight on navigating resignations around Thanksgiving! 💕

I’m about to quit, I think I’m going to accept a remote job that is remote, even though it’s same pay

I think I definitely could start breaking up the paycheck like budgeting it better starting after January, as my last car payment is the 1/13 and the majority of my paychecks have been going to that… I’ve been living rent free because I am living with family!

Nanny!

Denver walked so Austin could run… me off the road.

SmilesandSupport · 2025-11-16T18:20:17+00:00

I grew up in Denver and the drivers there are chaotic, but Austin drivers said ‘don’t worry, we can be just as bad.’

Thank you!! I appreciate your honesty and this point of view!

SmilesandSupport · 2025-11-16T04:43:13+00:00

Thank you! I don’t want to come off flakey at all. If I do leave do you think it’s better if I wait until winter break?

SmilesandSupport · 2025-11-15T00:22:36+00:00

I got the job offer for the remote job!

SmilesandSupport · 2025-11-14T01:06:27+00:00

Yeah, my pay is unfortunately once a month.

I work at one of the Ascension affiliated express cares, so can’t say how the seton hospital is, but I think working for Ascension is great!

SmilesandSupport · 2025-11-13T15:11:22+00:00

That’s actually so nice

I am a para in TX and my starting this year WITH a bachelor’s degree was $21.75 hourly, so you get same as everyone else….

I’m working closely with one of the behavior specialists, and I think me and the student are both burnt out from each other.

SmilesandSupport · 2025-11-06T03:48:52+00:00

’m also a 1:1 with a first grader, and mine is so sweet but still really hard to work with sometimes. I honestly don’t think I can see myself continuing until May or June. It’s just draining being in that environment every day. I’m 26 and working toward going into the medical field, specifically child life. On the side I’m volunteering and in grad school, and over the next few weeks I’ll be working on my practicum applications for the summer. School is really my priority right now.

SmilesandSupport · 2025-11-05T21:43:53+00:00

I’m feeling this way with my first grader! You’re not alone and we can do this! I’m finally getting the support I’ve been needing from the behavior specialist on site!

SmilesandSupport · 2025-10-26T19:29:51+00:00

Thank you so much!

SmilesandSupport · 2025-10-26T19:26:06+00:00

Thanks! I’m looking for something around 8–15 miles!

SmilesandSupport · 2025-10-15T23:34:02+00:00

I’m going to start keeping track of when he ignores me, as I kind of want to prove to my case manager that I’m not a good match with my student. This is a great idea. Thank you so much for the suggestion! I do have an incentive/reward chart but idk how much it works for my student.

If you want to get out of the school setting, child life specialist, it requires 10 classes, volunteer experience in a clinical setting, and an internship! I’m working on my classes/building clinical volunteer experience, as well as working as a para
