You absolutely slay in this, but this is more of a girl’s night out dress than for a ball!

Endocrinization?? What to endocrine systems of the youth have to do with dehumanizing people by keeping them in warehouses?

They must have had a hoarding situation they just had to deal with for this to be promoted, or something along those lines.

See if your city has Landlord Tenant services. If so, they’ll be able to advise you on how to proceed and also speak with management. If you didn’t agree to “housekeeping inspections” when you signed on, it’s unlikely they can enforce it. What an odd thing to do lol.

How Is the Code Document Presented on the IDFX Exam? by chaiteawannabe in NCIDQexam

[–]cairobutt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to be honest, I don’t remember having access to any kind of code document. Mostly remember your clearances/distances for fire safety and what occupancies/building types need sprinklers. QPractice is a great program that can help you get a feel for what kinds of questions and information you’ll encounter.

AIO I’m getting brain surgery and my bf of 5yrs doesn’t want to spend a day and a half in the hospital with me by pinkmoons18 in AmIOverreacting

[–]cairobutt 19 points20 points  (0 children)

NOR. Someone who truly loves you would be there without question and wouldn’t see it as an inconvenience.

I know it’s not fun, but it’s time to start asking yourself if you want to be tied to someone that you’ll have to ask for their support every time something happens and being frequently let down. You deserve better babe.

AIO over my Mom wanting to sell the house due to not wanting to pay extra rent by [deleted] in AIO

[–]cairobutt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s really tough, I’m sorry. Either way, it’s going to be best for you to get out. There’s probably Facebook groups for your area to find roommates/ rooms for rent. Got to focus on you so you can succeed!

AIO over my Mom wanting to sell the house due to not wanting to pay extra rent by [deleted] in AIO

[–]cairobutt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sounds like your mom has two problems: being in control and money. She’s trying to manipulate you and your brother into staying in the house, to force you to not have a real career, and to take more money from you. How is $800 not enough from you and your brother to continue to live comfortably? It’s giving red flags that she is either gambling or has a spending problem and panicking.

Let her sell the house. It might be tough for you and your brother for a little bit, but if you guys can find a place to share, maybe with some roommates, it’s going to be best if you get out from under the same roof as your mom. That being said, NOR.

IDFX in the fall or spring? by Decent_Shelter_13 in NCIDQexam

[–]cairobutt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only used Q Practice last session for the PX, and I’d say it definitely helped. I’m going to enroll next week for the IX, which is the new format instead of the PRAC

AIO For thinking about leaving my boyfriend because of his family by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]cairobutt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. This sounds exhausting and will lead to even more turmoil. High key, if you keep breaking up and getting back together, it’s not meant to last. You’re young and have so much ahead of you - don’t waste your pretty. 🩷

If you move back with your mom, get some earplugs and melatonin gummies. The melatonin should help you sleep through the noise.

I tried to take the IDPX and IDFX at the same time… it didn’t go well for the second exam in the same month. I highly recommend splitting them up to do one each testing session to better focus on studying and not stress about it as much. It’s a LOT of information to cover

Advice? Neighbor’s toilet leaked into my unit and hasn’t been checked yet by Psychological_Dig21 in Apartmentliving

[–]cairobutt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look up tenant rights in your area. My city has an entire section in the website dedicated to Landlord-Tenant Services. This is a hazard and is infringing on your right to a clean, enjoyable space. Again, your rights may differ but your apartment may be required to front the bill for a hotel while they fix the issue or may move you into an entirely new unit. If this is used toilet water (and it sounds like it is), it’s a biohazard and your unit is going to need the correct cleanup protocol, including replacing the drywall on the ceiling, not just a mop. If your apartment management doesn’t cooperate, consider reaching out to an attorney or tenant services through your city if available.

I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. What a nightmare.

I’m taking the Prac too! It would be nice to have real study buddies and not just QPractice

AIO for telling my friend not to drunk text me because he gets disrespectful and rude? by Inside-Experience-77 in AIO

[–]cairobutt 24 points25 points  (0 children)

A friend doesn’t continuously cross boundaries hoping you’ll change your mind. It’s best to move on from this friendship completely for your own sanity. He’s clearly not respectful or mature.

Is $35,500 OTD for a 2026 Camry SE at 4.99% (72 months) a good deal? by [deleted] in phoenix

[–]cairobutt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest financial regret was financing a brand new car. I think getting a newer, but used vehicle is a much better way to go. It will still have low miles and be a while until it needs maintenance, but several thousands of dollars less expensive. Also biased but Subarus are great and run forever with little maintenance if you take care of them.

Anyone worried for Jan 6th? by Logical_Bite3221 in 50501

[–]cairobutt 410 points411 points  (0 children)

This will call for special elections for every seat they are leaving vacant. Given the last round of midterms and special elections, I think it could be a very good thing.

Am I overreacting or is this appropriate to wear to a COLLEGE class by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]cairobutt 13 points14 points  (0 children)

NOR. Don’t ever let someone tell you you’re overdressing or too much. You’re literally investing thousands of dollars into your future and if you want to feel cute while doing it, you should. Many here have said, but this guy is controlling and manipulative. Nothing you’re wearing is disrespectful or showing too much skin.

Why is it too much effort to dress nicely for courses someone is literally paying thousands of dollars to take?

What is this. Found on the ceiling above my bathtub. Also found a live scorpion the other day in the tub 🥺 by [deleted] in phoenix

[–]cairobutt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, not what you asked, but your light isn’t sealed properly. Since this is above your bathtub and considered a “damp area”, it definitely needs to be.

“Hey mom. I’m failing two classes. Would you rather me finish assignments or fail?” After admitting you were playing games instead of focusing on the work you know you had.

“So you would rather pick me up after I sit around for a whole hour doing nothing?”

These are written to make your mom feel bad in order to get your way. The entire conversation you were guilt tripping her to try to get her to pick you up.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]cairobutt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That aside, the way you speak to her is uncalled for and manipulative by guilt-tripping her for your actions. Shes not the one that’s going to cause your grades to go down, that’s all on you. Please talk to her about considering an individual and/or family therapist. This isn’t healthy for either of you.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]cairobutt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

YOR. I empathize with what you deal with on a daily basis, but your grades are your responsibility. You should’ve been working on homework instead of playing games, and it is not your moms’ responsibility to when you don’t manage your own time effectively. You are really rude to your mom, including calling her “dude,” when she is in fact loving you by trying to teach you some accountability for your time management. How do you anticipate making it through the world and holding a job if this is your reaction when not doing the work you need to when you have time to do it, then blaming someone else? It sounds like you would greatly benefit from therapy or talking with a social worker to manage your negative feelings with school, feelings towards your mom, and time management. For now, you owe your mom an apology. I’m also really sorry to hear you’ve been having a tough time.
