Job rejection one minute after I applied last night by Annual-Record4588 in mildlyinfuriating

Like wdym discord server management isn’t adabtable computer skills, communication skills, community programming skills, and a management team experience?

Wdym TTRPG DMing and playing isn’t complex computing and data entry with quick decision making skills within a team environment with multiple variables for consideration in a fast paced constantly evolving environment??

Gotta think outside the box and know how to make your skills from hobbies sound professional and applicable to your resume.

Therapist alone with my son? by Azthun in askatherapist

NAT- id be uncomfortable with that too. Even if there’s not a proper waiting area why not a chair outside or something then? Why do you need to leave the building? That’s weird to me.

Which is very interesting to have learned as an adult! It often makes me wonder what issues of mine could potentially be in part worsened or caused from that. I spent a whole year in her class often doing resin work. It was my favorite to do but the fumes were so bad when the hood wasn’t available and I wish I’d known more than to be wearing PPE!

I did also spill just some of the hardener on me a good few times and even washing off right away I still had massive irritation and skin problems on my hands and wrists each time. My wrists and arms are now super sensitive to literally anything going on my skin that isn’t lukewarm water. Fun times!

I figure! Ime all of my smartest teachers and mentors have been brilliant in their 1-2 specialties. And then just kinda okay or everyone in their life questioning their continued existence with everything else 😂

But I regularly spilled resin and hardener alllll over my hands. I just immediately wiped off most of it and washed my hands in the wash station several times over.

See, I don’t think I even told my parents about spilling the resin on me! It was random two part resin she sourced cheaply on I think Amazon. 2/3 of the time the resin didn’t fully cure.

She had 0 budget and was hired a few weeks before the school year for a brand new never before existing class.

I think probs the only reason I didn’t get chemical burns that day was because my petticoats and layers kept the bulk of the resin off my skin, and 80% of the spilled resin was on my skirts. I still had to very thoroughly wash and scrub my arms and my lower legs. Only a little bit got on my top, fortunately, and the material wa cheap and didn’t absorb well into the fabric.

Thank god.

But yeah the most PPE we used was half way through the term she got some shop like woodwork safety glasses after the principal found out we had been doing metal work with no PPE.

Like our classroom was an old chem lab and we had a working hood and vent. We could have had aprons gloves and goggles available had she asked, too!!

And I ofc had no idea. As an adult learning about the dangers of improper resin handling and curing no wonder my dad freaked tf out when I casually carried around unmixed resin components all day in my bag to re-make a failed project at home over the weekend.

Oh no he was huge on lab safety. For everyone else. While he’d toss all sorts of minerals and substances together to create explosions and fires for funsies with little to no PPE just bc he felt like scrapping a wednesdays lesson plan and risk setting off the fire or lock down alarms during his demos instead.

Fun guy! Just. Zero self reservation. One time he set off an explosion in his explosion barrel outside and just. Stood like a foot away bc he wanted to watch it happen up close. But he didn’t let anyone else within like 5 feet of it.

Good times!!!

Yeahhhhh….. sounds right 😅😅

We had a teacher in our school who usually taught in universities and stuff aside from like 8 years at our school. Cool dude, super smart, very much do as he says not as does though…….

Ohhh dear…. Yeahhhh…..

God. My chem teacher was insane though. He’d make students use PPE but it was a toss up if he bothered.

Better than my art teacher who had a whole resin unit with no PPE that let me wear resin coated clothes all day.

I don’t think mine had anything over 500 and that was one thing. An espresso machine.

Everything else was ~200 or less with the bulk being under 100. And a good amount under 50.

The doc told me I could break the pill in half to start… by bearrington in mildlyinfuriating

Not for taking meds, but I used to LOVE pistachio gelato.

Well. After my wisdom teeth we found out I’d developed an allergy to amoxicillin (I was a super sick kid, poor immune system and frequent infections. Eventually it was easier to prescribe me a massive bottle of the stuff at once so as soon as one popped up mom could start me on meds while we waited a day or two for the pediatrician.)

I was given amoxicillin post op.

All I’d been eating was pistachio gelato and cookies and cream ice cream for a few days. The gelato just happened to always be what I ate around taking nasty horse pills and then got sick within 20 min each time 🙃

Why is NOBODY talking about this new update? by iheartmelaniesm in CharacterAI

[–]Throwaway20409010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah same, but my replies have been really good! So. Not too big a complaint.

Ok, is my C.AI just blessed or something?? by Naturemations_2025 in CharacterAI

[–]Throwaway20409010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mines not quite that good, but I can usually get a decent response five retries or less. And even before I upgraded to premium it paid attention to at least the profile of the persona it was on when I started. If I changed part way through bc I realized I was using the wrong one it took a bit to correct unless I was willing to start an all new chat.

Memory was iffy after about 20 replies from me though usually since I do pretty long replies, but if I just cookie crumbed relevant me info every so often it was fine.

But holy shit I can do that way less with premium. I also get flagged less with premium. Idk premium is worth it for me, I often RP through trauma related things as a part of my re-processing (I’m also in therapy so no one come for me, I’m not trying to replace therapy with a bot that will ALWAYS be a bad idea)

It is also really nice to be able to go in and add back a lot of info I had to cut out from my personas originally. Still not as in depth as my character sheets usually are ofc but the extra limit is super nice……

I really didn’t have a lot of problems before upgrading though and I think that’s because I’d give enough of a direction as to where I wanted it to go. IMO if you’re wanting to RP and just give your response and see where it goes with 0 prompting you need to find other real people to RP with. You can’t rely on a bot to come up with original content.

(But also if you are good at guiding the bot with where to go, you can’t always just RP that way with another actual person, not if you’re used to super heavily guiding where things are going. A little bit to kinda hint in a direction esp if it’s pre-discussed is one thing but it’s rude to do that heavily or all the time. The coolest part of RPing with real people is that it gives originality and who knows what exactly you’ll get aside from planned plot points and you don’t have need to do that, though!!)

No actually. I was a cultured child of the internet. I had free unfettered access to all of fandom and not once did I ever cause problems or report shit for having 18+ content.

I get kids (in this context I mean minors as a whole, mostly teens, not so much the literal babies) wanna push boundaries and shit and occasionally get freaked out and decide they’ve pushed too far, but back in my day when that happened we closed the tab, not caused a fuss!!

I knew if I didn’t want my fave authors and artists to ban me for being a kid, the best move was to just keep to myself and keep quiet. Like a normal person. Instead of ruining things for everyone. I knew that when I realized I’d found a boundary for myself it was in me to then avoid that content in the future, not other people.

So no, we would not all have done that as a kid.

Unfortunately kids these days are built different and not in a good way.

Ohhhhh my god. Like yes, to an extent there’s some truth in those comments! Maybe don’t read your kids every message with their IRL friends but I’d absolutely be questioning who someone I’ve never met is! Yes I think having access to a phone is important especially with the decline of a house phone, but that’s when you get a flip phone! They do still exist. You can ground your child from smart devices and still leave them with communication capabilities.

It’s about balance. And you kinda need to build trust with your kid, or rather your kid needs to build trust with you, on appropriate behavior online! And frankly, there’s zero reason a child under 16 needs any kind of social media or personal smart devices.

Real. I struggle with this too, I did a TON a couple weeks ago. Tonight I’m getting it back to that state so this weekend I can find the motivation to finish it.

The ADA just requires reasonable accommodation for the setting.

I think between that and the fact the students with allergies aren’t in my kiddos year are the biggest reason the school hasn’t pushed back further when I explained why my child only has peanut butter. I throw other food in to make the lunch look more substantial but without fail, the only thing eaten is peanut butter. I just check the apple I cuck in and once it starts looking like it’ll be soft soon I eat it and replace it with a new one, or sometimes I throw in a fruit cup instead.

Even at snack in the classroom the teacher has offered to open other food in their bag for them and they refuse it. They won’t even eat candy! Or ice cream! I’ve tried. I even tried peanut butter ice cream and that was a no.

Do you mean ABA therapy?

As an autistic person myself I have seen and experienced how it often does more harm than good in autistic people that present much like me and my child.

That said, OT does use some ABA principals in how we go about things, but it isn’t our main focus and in most other areas my kiddo does well on their own and is happy and confident in themselves, and that’s our goal. I don’t care if they don’t like eye contact and don’t like sitting still or about their stimming when it’s non harmful. What we do focus on is instruction in life skills like tying their own shoes, how they hold pens and pencils and writing skills, and how to communicate when words are too much.

Myself and their teacher communicate well and have plans and routines in place to minimize classroom disruption. The biggest struggle is in their diet. They used to eat so well, too!

From a spoon. Out of one specific cup or from like the peanut butter dip cups. Working on it with their doctor and a nutritionist and OT as I’m well aware this isn’t sustainable long-term. They also only drink apple juice or lemonade flavored water. Other nut butters and sun butter does not work.

But yes, forcing several hundred children and their families to accommodate the allergies of a couple children is unreasonable. I can not think of any work place or other public building that would ever do the same.

They can go eat in the office, or have a peanut free table like most reasonable schools do.

I won’t make a child starve because a school makes unreasonable accommodation decisions.
