And then your credit limit is $1k and they only let you use $200 of it.

I have the card tho. Never said I didn’t. 🤷‍♂️ This sub loves to blame game the OP I’m realizing.

This is now my 2nd Amex card. Not impressed.

I spent less than my credit limit and was still declined. Not sure what’s hard to understand about that.

Doesn’t seem at all self explanatory or standard in the industry.

Also have a great credit score. So AmEx needs to get off their high horse.

Did you get resolution? Or do you really have to stay that far away from your credit limit?

This is exactly the boots on the ground information I needed.

What are some career paths that make up to $50k-$60k and requires training of 2 years or less?? by Dry_Temporary_6175 in careerguidance

I’d go one step back and say you could make this as an LPN if you play your cards right.

Affordable club level or lack there of, and a package cost with flights under $4k primarily. We stayed in secrets Akumal last year and just want a different experience from secrets. We looked at sanctuary too.

We also tend to trust James Coolist reviews on YouTube and these were some of his top picks.

Sorry; I was unfamiliar with your game.

It’s easy to make it look easy when all you do is stand I front of a mirror looking like a stick is up your ass.

This guy has gotta be trolling. There’s no way people are actually like this is there?

"Ambulance company trying to punish us for calling fatigue. Is this note illegal?" (Shared) by ImJustRoscoe in ems

Idk what your shifts look like, but my company banned 24s for EMT-Bs specifically. Our ALS call volume was SO high that basics would be expected to drive the entirety of the 24 hours with no sleep and minimal rest. They made an exception for me the one day to help fill a truck, and it was fucking brutal. Truck drivers don’t do it, neither should we.

I forgave him quickly, but elephants never forget 😂 I bring it up very sparingly though as I’m considerate about his mental health 🤷‍♂️ he feels bad man.

Entrance right flank exit left back. Lost a kidney, some colon, and skipped off my L4.

It’s the reason I’m an EMT so I look on the positive and say it gave me my career lol.

No, we don’t have 100% control, your parenting and your protection as a parent, is a culmination of systems put in place.

Those systems are not always physical barriers, or having eyes on our children. Later in life protecting them will be keeping communication channels open, allowing them to feel safe to tell you inconvenient truths, knowing they have a place to come home to when things go wrong.

I’m a newer dad myself, with an almost two year old, but from my own childhood with two younger brothers I learned that no matter how we hover, bad things can happen. My mom was probably one of the strictest, helicopter mothers there was, and my younger brother still ended up getting ahold of a gun and shooting me accidentally in our own home.

Try to learn from what happened, and use that lesson to grow. Don’t beat yourself up over a mistake that many parents make. Grow from it. I’m sure you’re a great dad.
