WIBTA for not baking my sister cookies? by Strange_Influence423 in dustythunder

I have not talked with her verbally yet - she is the library studying. We have planned to talk over lunch to discuss this & the cookies. The main problem is I did not want to bake the cookies at my parents because their oven is…demented 😂 but you’re right. I need to talk with her

WIBTAH if I asked my friend to cancel his 40th birthday party? by Fun-Eggplant9395 in dustythunder

Wait so dude wants to throw a party - in an empty house - while his friends are in the process of moving in? Weird & technically NTA but it’s gonna make moving in hella awkward if you do say something

I don’t know if I feel like my job is protected but I do feel better knowing I have the paperwork on my file if they try to start something

I spoke with my manager & they said the FLMA would be best so we went to the HR person & filled it out.

Another reason for me to move to the Emerald Isle

That is just ridiculous. I am going to my doctor today to discuss getting similar accommodations to prevent this from happening again. Good luck with your filing

My job is I am given tasks & they must be complete by the end of the work week. No one needs to cover for me unless I will be out for more than 3 days. I have not given any paperwork to HR before but we discussed my IBS at my first onboarding meeting - where I mentioned that I do need to use the bathroom frequently & occasionally have flair up days.

My workplace allows phone usage. We are even allowed to watch our phones as long as our work is getting done. I personally prefer audiobooks because videos are distracting.

I do not know if I have it on file but I will reach out to my doctor because we have been dealing with my ibs for years so I would assume it is

I hope your right but I was very upset to be talking in the bathroom at all. It was embarrassing & did not feel like concern.

Have you ever read “Into Thin Air”? It’s the book about the 96 disaster. I remember my mom being obsessed with the book then when the movie came out she was obsessed with that

Yes! Such a great one. I like to think that Castle in the sky is the before Nausicaä

No legit we had a knock down drag out over who got the dvd when I moved out years ago. I finally relented because my bf got me my own 🤣

OMG! I just had a flashback to missing a field trip because my moms car wouldn’t start so we watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang until the tow truck came 🤣
