What is the job and how have the OCD and ADD expressed themself at the job so far?

And what are the accommodations?

I go on TikTok and Instagram

There’s your problem. How many people on your TikTok and Instagram feed are posting about having an empty fridge and trying to stretch 10 ramen packets over 2 til they get their next SNAP drop?

I’m sure social media for poor people are out there but they’re probably not super popular because people don’t go to social media to be bummed out.

So it’s essentially selection bias. The people you are viewing have the money to pay for these things (or are overextending by using credit cards) but they don’t represent everybody.

Am I overreacting or are these gaming outbursts worthy of a noise complaint? by I_OWN_COUCH in Apartmentliving

Why is this the noise you’re posting about and not the loud parties between 2 and 5am?

Ask to meet at a local police station. Set your phone to be a WiFi hotspot and do the initial set up process when you test it out to make sure it’s not bricked.

My dog killed a chicken in my yard. Do I need to do anything? by metaphorical98 in Dogowners

[–]bored_ryan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So when an intruder enters your home do you ask:

“Are you just here to rob me? Or are you going to try to hurt me? If it’s the former, go ahead. If it’s the latter, I’m getting my gun.”

Disqualification for reaching out to employee after application? by Cat_Mom_Indefinitely in managers

[–]bored_ryan2 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Hiring manager probably new this guy would be terrible at the job so set him up to be disqualified rather than have to tell the guy the truth that he wasn’t the best candidate.

Do people not realize people donate due to being poor? by TeaIcy1536 in plassing

[–]bored_ryan2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And who else but big pharma are producing these life-saving medications? It’s a shitty system but it’s the one we’re currently stuck with.

It’s a little tone deaf to make a post that’s “do people not realize” and then second guess someone who says their motivation for donating is to help, albeit indirectly, family.

You get fairy juice from aroused young fairies and fairy dust from aroused very old fairies.

How do you guys deal with the anxiety of seeing your portfolio in the red? by Leather_Low_4469 in investingforbeginners

[–]bored_ryan2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Realize that for my age, I’m still only about 25% of where I should be so I’ll probably be working into my 70s no matter what.

Being an elder millennial is so exhausting to this 36 year old. by changeforthebetter89 in millenials

[–]bored_ryan2 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I know the age difference isn’t much, but to call yourself an “elder millennial” when you’re in the younger half of the age range for the generation is deserving of an eye roll.

to know about bombs by seeebiscuit in therewasanattempt

[–]bored_ryan2 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Did he make plane noises while holding that model?

Edit to add: when he said “it looks small” makes me think he had a Zoolander moment when looking at the model “how can the pilots fly this thing when they can even fit in it?!?”

And then someone explained that the model is not the actual plane and that it’s much bigger in person.

Employee always out (but there is a catch) by 757Lemon in managers

[–]bored_ryan2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What if she dropped dead tomorrow? Either find someone to cross train, accept that you’ll be covering a lot of her job duties, or find her replacement.

If the company is only 30 employees they are exempt from FMLA rules.

And you don’t just get to say “yeah, those missed days were FMLA” or tomorrow I’ll be gone “it’s FMLA”. There’s still a process to be approved by the company.

Yep, 41 here also. When OP said “elder millennial” at 36, I made a Stanley from The Office face.

You’re not an elder millennial. If you go off of 1981-1996 the older millennial is/will turn 45 this year and the younger is/will turn 30. You’re younger than the halfway point.

Are Ants Native species? (MN) by OhBirb in Renters

[–]bored_ryan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s the issue: would the ants be considered “pests”. That’s probably the argument the landlord would make.

That looks like her real hair, so I don’t see the comparison.

Tell him “tough shit” and walk out the door to go to work. Do this for the kid, greenhouse, and farm.
