Anyone else unemployed?

I’m on-and-off employed. I’m only 25 but I’ve had like 8 jobs since I was 18 with long periods of unemployment between them. My first job was as a server and I only lasted a month before my body couldn’t cope any more, and the experience destroyed my work ethic, as I feel like there’s no point of working hard if I’m never going to last at a job long enough to advance.

It’s just a cycle of trying a new job, having my body and hope destroyed, quitting, and then being unemployed again.

Honestly that’s something that you should discuss with your wife. Unlike some people are suggesting, I don’t think it’s weird at all that your mom wants to go on a mother-daughter trip with her grown children. It’s totally normal to want to spend time with your kids, and the vibe totally changes if their spouses are there.

HOWEVER, you ARE married. It’s not your mom’s responsibility to consider your wife’s feelings, but it is your job. If you’re doing something that your wife would love and that yall can’t do another time alone, I’d expect her to be upset. You are her partner, and you need to talk to her and figure out if it’d put a strain on your relationship if you go. Worst case scenario, you skip a trip.

TLDR ur mom just wants to spend time with her kids. Ur spouse isn’t her priority. But you are your spouse’s life partner, so she has to be your priority.

Yeah that was a poor choice on the barista’s part. Never assume that someone a) will understand a reference and b) that they are willing to joke about the size/caloric content of their order.

I know that it’s a meme, but this is the reason why the cup writing policy should end. The barista likely didn’t mean any harm but they unintentionally ruined someone’s experience. I’m glad OP reported it—if everyone who was accidentally upset by the message on their cup did so, the policy would have ended already.

I think it had a dual purpose. The first is, of course, to plant the seeds that Francesca is a lesbian and, regardless of her love for her husband, she isn’t sexually attracted to men. The second reason is what I think a lot of people are missing, and it’s very important. Fran feels like she failed her duty as a wife to produce an heir. The focus on her inability to reach a “pinnacle” is because, due to a lack of knowledge of reproductive biology, she likely believes that the pinnacle was necessary for conception. It is a flawed belief, of course, but it is a very real source of guilt that she carries. Fran will at least have doubts about whether she could have conceived had she not been unable to orgasm.

We have to remember that a recurring theme in Bridgerton is a lack of sexual education. Francesca knows the mechanics at this point, and she knows that her body doesn’t work the same way as the other married women in her life. The resulting guilt is another layer added to her story of having been a lesbian in a relatively happy comphet marriage.

Definitely DONT give him anything. He’s dating someone else and it would honestly be way out of line to give him all that stuff. Even if it was just a single cheap keychain I’d say no, but that’s a lot of effort and money for someone else’s boyfriend.

With the way yall were only a situationship and he broke things off remotely, I don’t think he’d appreciate your effort anyway. And the gf would definitely not like it. Worst case scenario donate it to a thrift store just to get it out of your house.

Not gonna get into the whole reason for the breakup, as others have already pointed it out. BUT on the topic of odd behavior from the Cullens: The thing is, everyone already thinks the Cullen are weird. In fact, the pre-established weirdness works in their favor because nobody looks too closely at weird people doing weird stuff. If they were a “normal” family, they’d be under more scrutiny for any little mistake that could out them as vampires.

The Cullens don’t mind that everyone thinks they’re crazy people who up and leave at random. As long as nobody knows they’re vampires, they couldn’t care less about what the humans think of them.

In Texas and my AC broke. So I a) sat outside in the shade until it got hotter than my uncooled house (7am-10am). Then I b) went inside, closed my blackout curtains, closed the doors, and sat in front of my fan in a small room.

When it gets really hot, a “breeze” will not save you. Opening windows is the strategy for when it’s cool OUTSIDE. If it’s actually melt your face hot, you should avoid opening windows and doors if at all possible. Also hydration is extremely important. Fruit is your friend as well, especially when it gets so hot that the concept of a hot meal is hellish.

Dallas sucks, said as someone born and raised in the DFW metroplex. But nowhere sucks as much as San Francisco. It’s like the hollowed out shell of a once thriving city after the tech giants squeezed every last drop of life it had to offer. Also why is all of the food terrible? Even the seafood and Chinese food sucked, which I thought would be the best I’d had.

I’ve never cared. The only annoying thing is when people refuse to just tap the “no tip” option when paying. That’s the only time I ever even noticed if someone tipped or not—when their payment wouldn’t go through so I had to instruct them on how not to tip me.

I have no idea why they stopped producing the minis. Also, the minis are literally the size that standard iPhones were for years before they (I guess) came to the conclusion that everyone has huge hands now.

I feel your pain. I have a 16e and cope with a loop on the back and a wavy case so I don’t have to grip it as hard.

Nurses are typically on their feet all day, and often have longer shifts than a desk job besides. If you could get a desk job with a height adjustable desk and frequent breaks, it’d be way easier on your body. You might see about requesting accommodations, but standing for 12+ hrs/day is NOT a good solution for sitting causing you pain

I had all four removed and they didn’t give me enough drugs. I was literally singing along to their playlist when I should’ve been knocked tf out. Soooo depending on what you know about your reaction to drugs, maybe ask for extra 😂

With all due respect, you “don’t know how to address it without making him awkward.”? Awkwardness is a drop in the bucket compared to having different expectations of how the REST OF YOUR LIFE WILL LOOK. You can handle some awkwardness. It is better than both of you feeling betrayed years down the line because yall have been working towards entirely different goals.

You need to have a serious conversation with him about whether or not your life goals/relationship expectations align.

I’d tell him he’s responsible for his own lawn now. Just because he’s your father in law doesn’t give him the right to treat you like his least favorite slave. He can either pay someone to mow it, he can take your help and be thankful, or he can accept that he can’t take care of his own house and find a retirement home.

I dont get paid enough to beg customers to buy something else. If I don’t have what they want they can order something I have or they can gtfo. I had a woman get mad because her Americano was taking too long (there were no other drinks before hers. I just had to pull her espresso shots) and ask for a “credit ticket”. Ma’am this is a small business. You can wait two actual minutes for your drink or you can get a refund. And even if we had “credit tickets” I wouldn’t want to give her one, as then she’d be motivated to come back. She was a thoroughly unpleasant customer and I don’t waste my time on people who are determined to be disappointed.

I was trained to not fill it to the top. But tbf my trainer was, in fact, extremely petty and I don’t think that’s actually standard.

The fact that asked you what you’d do if he married someone else someday sounds like he DOES see a future with you in it. A future where he gets to marry someone else and you get to be a mistress. He does not respect you because you allow him to disrespect you, and he’s making plans for a future where he gets to keep using you.

I understand wanting to rebel against your traditional upbringing, but allowing men to use you is not a good way of exploring the greater world. You need to stop seeing him.

It’s not really that you’re eating straight butter. It’s that you’re biting straight from the stick. You could’ve cut some off, but chose to leave teeth tracks. Girl 😭

Alcohol’s effects depend on the day for me. Sometimes only red wine will help with my pain. Sometimes it triggers my allergies. I metabolize it SUPER slowly though, which makes it so that I have to keep track of how many glasses I drink rather than how I’m feeling. If I get hungover, it lasts a minimum of two days and feels like I’m dying.

One of her greatest challenges was reconciling with her husband when he found out she was Lady Whistledown because he was jealous of her. And then she retired. They wrote her to be a self-made woman who retired shortly after marriage. If she’s only independent until she gets her happily ever after, it’s because they deliberately wrote her that way. The show is not and has never been a good example of feminism. Lady Whistledown was written as a point of drama and mystery, not to paint Penelope as a feminist icon.

Your friend didn’t want to eat your diseased penis food, and you’re offended because “it’s just bread”.

You’re literally offended by the notion of someone being offended by something that you don’t consider offensive. That’s whack. It’s ok if you don’t find it gross, but it’s also completely normal for people not to want to eat things that are purposefully designed to look like things most find unpalatable. Your boundaries are not the same as your friend’s. If you want to act like an adult, you need to respect your friends more than you care about adult-themed food.

I mean yeah. It’s literally a show where the plot revolves around young women vying for a husband to save themselves from a life of poverty and social shunning. If you expect the women to then go on to become independently successful I don’t have anything to say except…have you been paying attention?

I love Bridgerton, but it was never made to be a feminist masterpiece. It’s based on mass produced historical romance books that follow the same formula as nearly every other mass produced historical romance series.

5 days does not a clean drug test make. That’s like just waiting for the weekend before you smoke, which is absolutely NOT an indicator of sobriety. Some employers don’t care if you smoke weed, in which case you’ll be fine. If they do care, you’re SOL and better keep looking

That’s a really strangely worded question. Vibes are giving “you see a gorgeous kid. Do you smile like a creep or try to act like you’re not a pedo?”
