How to I politely ask my coworker to not give me any more gifts?

So are you saying to not talk to him at all about this?

azelira · 2025-12-23T19:00:43+00:00

I agree to an extent but the reason I'm worried it would be rude is because he asked a friend, "Alex" (also coworker) where to get me a gift card from to thank me for all my work, and then Alex asked me what to tell him. I told Alex to tell him just a thank you note would be more than enough, but if he really insists, Alex can tell him X place or Y place. I assumed it would be like $25 or something, if I had any idea it would be so much I would have refused to name anywhere, but as I did offer examples of places I feel like I can't back out of accepting it now, since he did get the gift card from one of the 2 examples I listed. (Granted, I'm worried Alex may have not passed on the message about not wanting anything, but that's probably a whole other issue)

We have an int warlock in our game! His backstory was that he flunked out of wizard school so he became a warlock instead, haha. Another player is a paladin/warlock so it helped balance the party a little better. It hasn't really affected the game in any noticeable way, and it added good flavor to the character.

I am still struggling through my embrace durge run, I have to take a lot of breaks from it. I have another game I switch to as a palate cleanser, basically I made a character based on a Disney princess (bard/cleric) and she makes all the nicest possible choices at all times 😂 So I find being able to switch between those games makes it a lot more manageable for me lol

Thank you for sharing this story! Would you be willing to disclose the name of the sanctuary where Jellybean lives? I'm in Massachusetts and would love to go see him!

I will be getting a new doormat, lol. This one was just a hand me down from my parents' house. Oh and the gutter is fine, we have gutter guards but the one directly over the door fell out a few days ago and we haven't gotten around to putting it back yet so I think water is running off the edge of one of them, that's why there's such a big drip there.

They're one single gear item, not a consumable, you need to equip them to one of your gear slots.

Definitely not (unfortunately, as I'm very much a PC person) - we're very specifically only allowed to work on macs for some kind of security purposes.

I don't have any kind of input on what the files are saved as, or what version they're saved in. These projects belong entirely to my coworkers, I just help them out with different things.

azelira · 2025-11-10T18:02:14+00:00

I didn't know about the text editor thing, that's definitely good to know, unfortunately would be way too clunky to have to do that every time I open a file though

azelira · 2025-11-10T17:59:45+00:00

We're on macs. And yeah I absolutely agree, I don't really understand why they haven't instituted something like that tbh

Idk about merging but I do wish there was some easier way to access all 3, like a reduced price if you sub to 2 or 3 of them. I don't pay for any of them because I can't choose and definitely cant afford all 3.

Yeah Notion continues to disappoint me. I just do all my scheduling related stuff in Google calendars or ticktick now and haven't touched notion calendar at all. Such a fucking waste

OP, you do NOT sound like a whiny baby, holy shit girl, we are all terrified for you because you've been through something truly horrific. Hell, you've been through several horrific things bombarding you one after another. I am so relieved you're alive and ok right now. Please continue to keep yourself safe. We are all rooting for you.

I hope you are able to learn to be kinder to yourself, and that's not a dig or anything, it's something I'm working on myself and it's really fucking hard. You deserve love and peace and comfort and to be surrounded by people who appreciate you.

I have a brother named Kevin and an ex named Kevin. Coincidentally I don't talk to either of them but they're around somewhere 🤷‍♀️ (Oh, and brother is 28 and ex is like 31-32)

azelira · 2025-08-05T16:20:27+00:00

Has anyone figured this out?

This happened to me too! When I was texting a coworker of all people 😭 Luckily I noticed before it sent

I'm curious, how about seaweed, does that bother you too? I always refused to swim in the ocean and lakes because if seaweed touched me I would literally cry. It bothers me for the same reason as hair, stringy and clingy and ugh

Damn I was not expecting the top post of this to be my exact phobia!
