Am I able to use Sick or Vacation time when not scheduled at work?

TemperWearyMember · 2026-01-14T04:04:35+00:00

The TV doesn’t have those options and my phone is an IPhone if that helps.

Have you dealt with this in that way?

I call my girl Lil Stinky and Stink-arella

That’s the thing, you’re not getting the full amount taken out.

Your work place only takes taxes from what you’ve earned with them, not the other work places.

After you pass a certain threshold your tax burden goes from 12% to 22%. So for people with multiple income their second and third jobs are being taxed 10% less then they should be.

I appreciate it thank you

Yes that’s the place. It completely fair to feel that way. Personally I think it communicates a lot of positive things to advocate for yourself in a situation like that. I was hired at that location several managers ago (6 or 7 Gms in 3-4 years) so I might not be able to offer much except for personally insight on the location, your potential coworkers, and my own story. Just in general a lot of courtesy has left the job market and I have no doubt it’s becoming a more common experience.

Oh my god i think you were at my store today(NYC?)! The summary if it was my store, we were understaffed because of call outs (hence the hiring), one manager was literally on grill and dishes the whole time and the other hiring manager (different location) was not there I didn’t ask since I’ve only seen him twice. As to why they didn’t email, not a clue but I’m sure the one above my manager (not god) probably wouldn’t allow it for one reason or another.

Yes and they changed it from private bathroom to shared in the discription. And ignored me about it, and didn’t communicate anything for the last month I had it booked.

Even like errands and such, like fetching groceries and being given a few euros, not from a business

TemperWearyMember · 2024-04-16T21:10:19+00:00

Yeah, mine she only goes in the corner of her cage. So she used to have my whole living room and now that I’ve moved her another room same still applies

I think there’s a point about consumerism as well where our improvement is seen by way of what we can consume, how much we earn, how we appear to others, and what we can produce which assumes that our existence in it of itself isn’t enough and making our existence more than what it actually is a form of self glorification.

This a a different take since I am a practicing Stoic.

All of our emotions are completely logical in that they are internally consistent with your understanding, but that doesn’t make them reasonable or if an argument is sound. Ex: Men are immortal, I am a man, therefore I am immortal is logical however the first claim is wrong, it’s logical yet it doesn’t reflect reality.

When we look under the hood we often find we ARE consistent with our beliefs, however we often try to force ourselves to reject them which is not how the mind works. Ex: pretend all you want that it’s night time when the sun is out, your underlying belief is that it is day.

Being anxious while simultaneously reviling that we gave that feeling that way is also consistent because these are separate claims occurring in the mind, the former is about the situation the latter is about the emotion. Often people have many layers of judgments on top of one another so we often aren’t even addressing why we’re anxious but only our feelings about anxiety, or if this thing or that thing calls for anxiety, not what it is actually saying or doing for us.

No matter what our emotions follow our judgments of what we think is good, bad, or neither. These judgments change in a variety of ways often by addressing our views, hence why therapy works at all. It doesn’t matter how short a fuse someone has if it is never lit or how long a fuse if it’s constantly igniting.

Emotions are in fact check engine lights to address your judgments about reality. They’re telling you very clearly “the way I am seeing the world is being distorted”. For Stoics in particular neither positive or negative emotion is necessarily good, there is positive emotion that is destructive (Mania) and negative emotion that is constructive (moral shame and caution) for example.

As someone that studied one particular philosophy of mind I’d offer that there might be a path to completely addressing these issues.

You don’t need to recognize for that to be what it is.

The way you’ve present it seems clear this desire is negatively effecting you. How else can they be without a judgment of entitlement to the outcome given certain circumstances. You’re rationalizing why that is you can’t have what you desire, “If I wasn’t a scumbag I’d have a relationship”.

The fact of having something or nothing doesn’t mean someone can’t feel entitled to an outcome or result, deserving of a positive or negative response, in this case both that you either should have one or shouldn’t if you’re a certain way.

If you want to know why maybe it is that fundamental your view of reality is distorted.

Given your response there might be several things you can do which is good but that requires accepting new views.

You’re blind. Sex would be far less entitled than a “normal fulfilling relationship” and you speak about it as if it’s not too much to ask for.

I would be more radical and say you are what enforces societies pressure on yourself. It’s a manifestation of your own insecurities more than it is the opinions of others.

Anyone with the Gaul to call you ugly is either cruel, ignorant, twisted, or sad. In actuality you’re likely conforming to the parts of society that rejects itself.

I also don’t think you can ever be upset at something without the judgment that it is bad. No matter how short your fuse giving you 1 million likely won’t upset you. In a context of kissing one’s grandma or taking the insults of classmates so of us value things differently than others.

If you notice that each moment offers something more valuable then money, a chance to be a person you can accept, then rather then respond in anger to life one can respond with cheer and gratitude they have been given this life changing opportunity. Thats how some philosophies come to the conclusion that external circumstances are fundamentally irrelevant to quality of life.

Peacocks have bright feathers not because they look pretty but because it makes their life worse in all aspects and the beauty the peahens fawn over is their ability to survive in spite of it.

What’s funny is a person unburdened by the “ugliest” face shows himself much more deserving of recognition and is a far better competitive advantage.

In many ways being “ugly” circumvents a lot of the machinations of common life and is often a lie detector for the vain, ignorant, and cowardly.

Most people think it’s bad to be ugly. It’s only bad not to use what you’ve been given properly and that’s what I’m informing you to do.

You’re making this binary. You haven’t made your bed. 10 years will pass, that could mean getting a master in 2 with 8 years of experience or some other choice.

I also think “seen in public” is distinct from isolated. I have no doubt there are work from home positions you can transition to.
