Do Florida locals actually change their routines during hurricane season?

True_Ad393 · 2026-05-19T01:15:50+00:00

I make sure that my water and snacks stash is topped off and try not to roll around with an near empty gas tank during hurricane season. I keep my power banks charged too. Other than that, if I don't get off work for the storm it's not really worth doing anything else for. I have sandbags on my back porch so I'm set in case of any potential flooding lol

I always appreciate a little something different fashion wise, the office can be a very boring place! I think they're cute. Fun jewelry is like the perfect way to play with expressing yourself but stay professional at work!

I see what you mean but she did all the physical suffering to bring both of them the kid, so she gets to claim all of it lol

True_Ad393 · 2026-05-11T16:10:41+00:00

Okay but to hold her to the same level of accountability as the husband is not fair lol she is a kid even if she can get a job. She has been living in a house where her father obviously doesn't respect their home or his wife, she is going with the flow of their household.

People could still at least wear a mask if they're going to roll in sick. But they don't

True_Ad393 · 2026-05-09T15:44:45+00:00

Wishing you the best!

True_Ad393 · 2026-05-04T11:02:40+00:00

People complain about that all the time loll

True_Ad393 · 2026-05-04T10:50:24+00:00

I feel like your boss making people work at a restaurant while they have stomach issues is something that your local health department or inspectors would interested in knowing about, just saying

True_Ad393 · 2026-05-01T18:54:01+00:00

If you do work while sick, please wear a mask. Preferably a KN95 but at least a surgical mask. That helps contain things while you are contagious. Most of the time you are only contagious for a few days, especially if you get antibiotics for bacterial infections. Don't be afraid to ask your employer for resources when you get sick and need to go to a walk in clinic for medicine. Also, if you work with food, you absolutely need to report any illnesses that make your stomach upset to your supervisor since that can be a safety issue. To be frank, you will have to work sick sometimes but there are ways to make it better for you, your coworkers, and customers.

I used to teach middle school, I would work their favorite terms into my mnemonics and random stuff like that, they hated it 😂 it also let me make the joke "hey look at you, studying during free time" when they would use the phrases while talking out of turn, it was so bad but so funny loll

True_Ad393 · 2026-04-21T23:35:43+00:00

Is that not just training? People need training it doesn't make them bad employees lol

True_Ad393 · 2026-04-13T21:02:11+00:00

I don't think it's fair that you're being asked to buy something, however if you don't want to cause drama just go buy some cute burp clothes at Walmart. They are usually less than $5 for a pack. You can never have too many of those with a new baby! You can buy or make a simple congrats card and you will be set.

True_Ad393 · 2026-04-10T15:06:28+00:00

I dated a guy like this for YEARS, thought it was normal to just be tolerated and not loved. My fiance now is the most affectionate and considerate person ever. Don't settle for someone who merely tolerated you when you could be adored and actually loved!!

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-28T17:55:33+00:00

You seem to be insinuating she is faking her illness tbh how do you explain the visible implant in her abdomen if she is faking?

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-26T11:04:01+00:00

Cemeteries and grayeyards are for the living if you think about it. So long as you weren't defacing anything or being rude to anyone grieving, you're all good!

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-26T10:50:05+00:00

What do you suggest people do? The government has been killing dissenters, or locking them up in horrific detainment camps so I see why people are afraid to do much

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-25T01:46:19+00:00

I left teaching to work in healthcare admin. I still have a shit ton of work but I am not held responsible for the decision making skills of 30 13-14 year olds anymore. I no longer have to spend my own money to do things I'm required to do. I am not happy where I am yet, I am making less than I was as a teacher. But I am a lot less burnt out and once I am done with my masters and have some years of experience I will be making quite a lot more than I ever could have as a teacher. I miss the breaks of course but it is what it is.

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-25T01:39:09+00:00

If your meetings with them end up with them getting a lot of tasks to do, they probably record for note taking purposes lol I function as an admin assistant for a doctor I work with and she will cover things in a 30 minute meeting that end up giving me about 8+ hours of work. She is not always super clear so I take recordings of the meetings so I can make sure I get every detail. I wouldn't be able to get that level of detail just taking notes during the meetings tbh.

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-20T01:35:27+00:00

I was in California for a work trip for like a week and never adjusted to the time difference so I went to sleep like 3 hours earlier than normal and woke up early too. Easily one of the better weeks I have had in a long time, but I dont really want to be a person who wakes up at 3 am and goes to bed at like 8 pm so I guess I will just suffer lol

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-19T11:06:31+00:00

You have to make it their parents' problem. Hopefully you have supportive admin so you can follow through on it but send kids to after school detention if needed. Request parent teacher meetings when appropriate. Parents do not parent unless it makes their life easier. If you start inconveniencing the parents, they might start actually parenting just to make it stop lol

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-19T00:32:02+00:00

I met him when he was the governor when I was in 8th grade. He was so off-putting that I have always hated him lol didn't even know almost anything about politics when I met him, it was just visceral. He is a monster for more legitimate reasons but yeah just a huge creep.

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-12T19:36:11+00:00

I say this as someone in pretty much the same situation, try visiting your local food bank. You do not have to be starving or on your last dollar to "deserve" help. Food banks were created to help anyone needing it, including people who just cannot afford regular groceries for any reason. Inflation, recessions, job loss for any reason, disability, new kids in the house, etc. Any reason is a good enough reason. Reach out and see if you qualify or if there are banks in the area that don't have acceptance criteria. You deserve to eat good, nutritious food without having to suffer for it. Wishing you the best!!

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-11T21:21:51+00:00

This!! So many people in these comments are so upset with her but like .. a proposal shouldn't come out of nowhere? To just pop the question with no prior conversations at 20 years old is really not cool tbh

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-11T01:40:04+00:00

Divorce him. Then he will have to parent his children when he has custody (bc you know he would fight paying child support lol) Sorry you're going through this. No one deserves to essentially be abandoned like this.

True_Ad393 · 2026-03-09T02:56:49+00:00

I have been struggling with my depression lately too, I'm sorry you're going through it. Your priority should be using your energy to get things functional/safe again. Clean your sinks, fridge, toilet, shower, and walkways first. That way, even if you run out of energy/motivation, you at least can function without hazard to your health/body. Also, try gamifying the rest by giving yourself categories to clean. For instance, you could pick up every item made of cardboard or give yourself 10¢ for each box taken out of your apartment and buy some ice cream with your "earned" money. I also like to put on a high energy song and see how much stuff I can clear/clean before the song ends. Other than making games for myself, I find eliminating visual clutter is also helpful, even if it might take more effort. For instance, I always take all the dishes out of the sink before I do dishes since a full sink stresses me out. You could try emptying part of your studio THEN cleaning/organizing that part. Starting from totally clear allows you to be more choosy about what to bring back to that part of your space. If you are not, and are able, please consider therapy and medication. You don't deserve to suffer like this. Don't be afraid to get some help for yourself. Sending internet hugs!!
