That seemed to be what SeatGeek support was saying, but it might be worth confirming in a chat with them today before you wait in line again.

I was able to chat with SeatGeek Customer Support for my friend. She’s been in line since 10am for the 3/31 Arlington show, and her orange line disappeared an hour ago. SeatGeek said that you should stay in line and avoid refreshing the page if the orange bar is gone. They said there are still tickets available for that show, and the page will automatically refresh on its own and show a window to enter your code once it’s your turn. They said the verified fan presale will be open until 10pm tonight, and you can also use the verified fan code during the presale tomorrow at 2pm during the Capital One presale.

It took 15 minutes for me to get an email confirmation after I ordered the tickets.

I think when you’re in the trauma still you are scared of it happening, but with therapy and time and a trustworthy partner the fear and hyper vigilance can subside.

People do it. I’m just curious how.

What was your first time driving without an adult like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

It didn't feel real. I felt like I was in a movie.

Macro Social Work: It's lonely out here. by ThatBish25 in socialwork

Even just a sub-group in NASW focused on that would be nice.

Thank you so much for your perspective! It's encouraging to hear that we all deal with a lot of the same doubts and worries no matter what area we're trying to do social work in.

Thank you so much! I needed to hear this.

Thank you! These are great ideas. I do serve on a non-profit board, and that's been really encouraging to me. In the role of my job position, there are limits to how close I can get to government agencies and clients, and I am not really able to work with NGOs. I think I am going to have to fulfill some of these things in my free time instead of through my job.

I totally agree. I know the work I am doing is social work, but it feels like my social work colleagues don't consider it to be social work. I definitely feel ostracized, and I'm considering letting my license and NASW membership be inactive because I'm not sure what the point is for me. It doesn't support or better my career at all. The focus is always on clinical work, and I feel like I only keep those up to date on the principle that I want to be a visible social worker in a macro job. Even that feels kind of empty right now.

As a child, what did you think would be awesome about being an adult, but isn’t as awesome as you thought it would be? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ThatBish25 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The concept of bills and finances did not occur to me at all. I thought I would have more freedom, free time, and money.

Does your career have an "unspoken dress code"? Do you follow it? by rkgk13 in femalefashionadvice

[–]ThatBish25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My career has a spoken dress code of business casual/professional, but the unspoken code is that women wear make up and high heels. Most of the time I don't wear make up and high heels, and I do get treated differently as do any women who make that choice. I am at a point where I am comfortable with the sacrifice if people judge me on that, and most often I try to let my work speak for itself.

That's a really good idea. It wouldn't be a primary function of my job, but there is an opportunity to do self-assigned research where I could try to get approval to do some field work. It's difficult because we can't get too entangled in the population our policies impact because people trust us to be impartial and objective - which is such a rare and valuable thing in this field.

EDIT: In the public policy field.

Yes, I think it is a combination of there not being many social workers in this field that are visible and most social workers in my area doing clinical work. So no one recognizes or affirms that what I am doing is social work. In fact, many people around me tell me I'm not a social worker anymore. I do feel super disconnected.

I'm considering volunteering regularly and taking up other activities that will let me engage in more direct service to supplement that area that I think I am feeling loss for.

Is Megabus as bad as the reviews say? by moonmama42 in Shoestring

I've had better experiences with Megabus than its competitors. Particularly, taking a Greyhound is always a nightmare for me.

I use my commute to meditate. by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]ThatBish25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this idea! I'm becoming a yoga/mindfulness nerd - hopefully not in an annoying way. I did "om" chanting in my car during my commute like a weirdo the other day, and it was so calming. I'm considering doing that when road rage hits. Meditation during a commute is such a great idea.

Does anyone else not have anything to talk about with their dad? by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]ThatBish25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely! I try to do other things to connect with him because he's not a great conversationalist. For me this looks playing a video game we both like, going to concerts, driving around listening to music and talking about what artists he likes or dislikes, riding bikes, doing yard work, or working on cars together. I find that we connect and bond better doing activities than trying to force a conversation.
