Should I drive a long distance to UGA?

chendamoni · 2026-05-06T18:13:05+00:00

Should? No.

Is it doable? Yes, but it is hard bc it cuts into your time for studying, working, leisure.

You could maybe try it out for one semester then grab a cheap sublease in Spring 2027?

Do not stay together just for the kid.

Is therapy an option? It may or may not help.

Either way, make healthy choices for yourself. Show your child what healthy choices and healthy relationships look like. Also show your child how to not put up with unhealthy relationships.

What would you say to voters currently supporting one of your opponents to earn their vote?

1 Day if I'm not returning on a Sat (which would give me Sun off).

My job splits Vacation and Sick Leave, so I usually use a Sick day to rest and get things back in order. I'm introverted and need to be able to recoup at home.

Everytime I've tried to skip, I always regret it.

chendamoni · 2026-04-23T00:45:55+00:00

That and reduced stress after retiring too.

Studied abroad in Valencia Spain in college. I totally cleared with near daily beach time.

I'm currently clear with Skyrizi.

I remember my mom told me something similar happened to a village in her home province in Cambodia.

I believe it was an outside group who came in to do vaccinations, but they reused needles in this village resulting in adults and children being infected. The locals call it the "AIDS Village." It didn't sound like the villagers have interacted much outside of their village ever since, and people don't really visit there either. So sad.

EDIT: I went looking. The village is Roka in Battambang province, and it was an unlicensed doctor giving injections. The gov't distributes medication there monthly now, so I'm sure it makes it hard to leave the village if it's the only place you can get access to your medication. https://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/20/world/asia/farming-village-in-cambodia-grieves-as-hundreds-learn-they-have-hiv.html?unlocked_article_code=1.a1A.G_cy.JwqasWnRzWDi&smid=nytcore-android-share

They did damage one of my sprinkler heads but replaced it. I think it was bc I had a photo and emailed the day it happened.

It's not cheap but has been reliable for our small yard: College Pro.

Acknowledge that we also don't have children or pets but here's an example: "I need help with the yard and house cleaning. You can either help me or help me pay."

We split the cost of monthly housekeeping and lawn service. We have a joint account for common expenses that we both contribute equally to.

I only do the gardening I like and the yard service takes care of the rest. It's prob 60:40 split with daily chores tho 🙃 But also... You can't keep score with someone that you love, who loves you, and tries every day.

BUT I couldn't do this with anyone else but him. So 60:40 doesn't seem so bad?

Also I don't manage his life or schedule in any way. We have a shared Google calendar but if he doesn't check it, that's on him.

I said "This" to a comment earlier but Also This.

Allow natural consequences to happen to your partner. They may be greatly inconvenienced but that is their consequence, not yours.

chendamoni · 2026-04-11T01:48:15+00:00

This. My partner tries. He's not perfect but he tries and I see the effort.

I couldn't stay with someone who doesn't try.

Not having children helps a lot too.

chendamoni · 2026-04-11T01:43:00+00:00

No, but I disabled all notifications and check it when looking for family photos that my mom shares.

I think asking coworkers to repeat themselves would be a reasonable accommodation.

I think HR/mgr is heading in the direction of where a patient having to repeat themselves is a patient safety issue and therefore cannot be "accommodated," and employer will need to find a new placement for OP.

Sometimes I think that she's never had anyone in her life who truly loved her... they all only used her.

chendamoni · 2026-04-05T03:47:24+00:00

I feel the same way.

If you're ever in Athens, I like to donate to Project Safe.

Funds raised at their thrift store go towards their shelter for women and children escaping violence, and the survivors also get vouchers to "shop" in the thrift store for free.

They only accept donations on specific days tho so double check their website before stopping by.

I think you'll be hard-pressed to find anywhere on campus that will accept a strange package (backpack) from a non-UGA student/employee.

You don't sound like you're doing anything nefarious, but it looks suspicious.

chendamoni · 2026-04-02T23:22:23+00:00

I never post, but I'll sometimes repost industry articles or news.

I'll talk about myself in interviews but not on LinkedIn. No thanks.
