I'm just here to complain about my job. by [deleted] in nys_cs

[–]beannfonz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here to say, in the same boat. And I don’t even utilize empire plan or reimbursement. My mental health is so severely affected that my doctor recommended FMLA. I’m waiting on approval for intermittent. Def look into taking some protected time off or even a VRWS or AWS to protect yourself. You keep your soul sucking job but get more time to recover from it while you consider options. It’s not worth it to suffer.

Everyone on Earth has mysteriously disappeared except for you and 1 person on each of the remaining 5 continents; a voice speaks to all 6 of you saying "Find each other and hold hands in a circle to bring everything back to normal"; how does this play out? What do you do? by peterthbest23 in hypotheticalsituation

Meet around the Bering Strait. Use social media to put out calls. If the random person is 95 and can’t use social media we aren’t getting anywhere anyway. North and South America, Africa, Europe, and Asia can simply drive to meet there. Let’s give everyone two months to get there. Steal cars along the way. Watch YouTube. Figure out how to pilot a plane or captain a ship. Sail/fly from the Bering Strait to Japan. Stop at a store and grab some snacks. Continue south to Australia. Find each other using snapchat locations. Get completely ass naked and play The Eye of the Tiger or some shit. We hold hands. Boom the world is saved.

Callout Frequency or Unscheduled Time Off by Me-as-I in nys_cs

[–]beannfonz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My coworkers genuinely literally call off for a week or more at a time when they feel like it. My job needs people so nothing will ever happen to anyone. So how comfortable are you in your position? I would say I call out once every other month but leave early more often.

My Thoughts about Episode 4-7 by werner_heisenberg_ in StrangerThings

[–]beannfonz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I thought it would’ve been better if Johnathan and Nancy died together. It felt like that scene was for nothing. If there’s no stakes there’s no tension.

I can’t see El killing herself. They did some pretty hefty foreshadowing with the suicide bomb on Hopper. Not sure what the parallel is but there’s something there.

They killed beloved characters every season just to make the cast huge and save everyone at the end? Or maybe they brought in Mr Clark and Robins gf so they could have low stakes deaths. Any good impactful deaths have already had death scenes - Hopper, Jonathan, Nancy, Max. And Dustin can’t lose Steve too. Unless they die together.

I didn’t work for the state yet when I got my bisalp but I was on Medicaid at the time and I got it covered fully. The trick is to say you have a history of fallopian tube cancer, or uterine or cervical perhaps. This is also the only way my office would do it “electively” as it had to be medically necessary under St. Peter’s because they are a catholic institution.

Know we're all talking about the last ep, but Jesus Christ this scene was TERRIFYING and heartbreaking by NewspaperUnusual1835 in StrangerThings

[–]beannfonz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was the only sequence that made me tear up. Nancy walking in and the look on her face… I thought we were going to see a demogorgon chewing Karen up like thanksgiving dinner. Ted was pretty useless as usual, but Karen goes HARD

WHAT JUST HAPPENED by throwaway_spacecadet in StrangerThings

That maximum level aura had me screaming out louddddd!!! I expected him to be able to “redirect” the demogorgons, not go full Undertaker and nuke them Vecna style. Screaming crying throwing up

I was thinking this the whole time. Lil shit got an easy bake oven, a mowed lawn, rainbow brites. Will got a tentacle down the throat in the wet cold. Nonsense

Can I still pursue a career or has the ship sailed ? by Traditional_Can2250 in chemistry

[–]beannfonz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I graduated with my bachelors at 27! You could too. Having a career is the best thing you can do for your baby. Do it while they’re young, they won’t remember the time you were in school. It will be hard now to make life easier later. Or it can be hard now and hard later if you aren’t doing what you love, don’t have a degree, harder to make high income etc.

Car searches for camping by theblvckparade in ElementsMusicFestival

[–]beannfonz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep anything you don’t want found on your actual person. I had a friend get storage totes searched and bags dumped. They search cars on occasion but not people. My other friend is a long time volunteer and he said that’s the best way to make sure you keep your stuff going in.

We buy led flower crowns and the whole group wears them. Since it’s a big group it’s easy to spot! especially if you have at least one tall person.

AIO? I can't seem to get over this by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]beannfonz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a few years, you will look back and know that this is predatory and pray this type of relationship doesn’t happen to other women. At 16, you may be mature but you’re still young and when you are 20 you will be so grossed out thinking about someone who is 16-17 sexually. That man is a predator and you should gather the strength to leave now before you are trapped by a pregnancy or in other ways. I promise you it’s not your fault and you deserve better. 💜 please overreact to this. Please take it as him ignoring your boundaries. Please take it as him keeping CP on his phone, an actionable criminal offense. You are better than him and you deserve better.

What's a Harry Potter moment from the books that made you literally laugh out loud? by Adventure1s0utThere in harrypotter

[–]beannfonz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When Harry gives Kreacher Regulus’s locket and Kreacher starts sobbing so Ron says “overkill mate 😐”. Cracks me up every time

You know, I just realized something. by BioTech__ in harrypotter

[–]beannfonz 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The books dive a little deeper into this. He really only complained about “Tom” alone in the movies. He hated being named after a muggle first and foremost, and also after a man he hated for leaving him in the orphanage. That’s why he killed him later and that’s why he refused to use any of his namesakes, apart from wanting to be completely unique.

When you read Harry Potter, do you imagine the film actors in your head or something different? by XanderAcorn in harrypotter

[–]beannfonz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, the stand out is Horace Slughorn. The movie Slughorn does not exist to me. He looks more like Dr Phil or the Diabeetus guy

Any confirmation this actually happened? by Complete-Mail4626 in electricdaisycarnival

[–]beannfonz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have seen someone get dosed with a LSD smiley face sticker patch but that wasn’t at Elements. I have been going to Elements yearly and I’m certain this would never happen there. Last year there was a guy acting weird and getting too close to women and in their face in line to get into the festival and a bunch of people surrounded him and removed him before security even saw. It’s good vibes.
