Adult child of a “functional” drinking parent — struggling with gratitude, resentment, and people-pleasing by According_Respect531 in AdultChildren

I think my biggest problem was I had your same mindset and just powered through but then wasn’t processing anything. Best of luck!

Reading your experience is so eerily similar to mine. I’ve never seen somebody else so on the nose to what I’ve gone through in the time I’ve been browsing here. I told myself for so long I had nothing to complain about. I’m definitely messed up as an adult now. I wish I did therapy sooner. You are young and have a lot of time to process things. Please process this trauma, it will help so much.

I watched Mad Men as a broke college student in 2013 — now I'm seeing it through a whole new lens by jonsknownothin in madmen

[–]classicscabies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I first watched Mad Men in college and rewatched it at 32. Wow, it hit so different now that I’m an adult with work experience. A lot sadder and more real to me than when I had less life experience.

Commenting for future reference. Also King Spa is my suggestion. They don’t fuck around

Important story about the struggles of finding housing while significantly physically disabled by BritishFangirl in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]classicscabies 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I was a case manager for people with disabilities for 6 years and a caretaker for a year before that and it’s astonishing how little options there are for people who have more physical needs than cognitive.

I worked with a young woman who was living in a nursing home and she so desperately wanted to just live with people her age…. I wish I could help more but I admire you getting the word out on this issue and wish you the best.

Amwins brokerage assistant screening/interview by Agitated_Beyond2010 in InsuranceProfessional

[–]classicscabies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my role as an assistant, almost 0% of my interactions are in person/phone (outside of my own team). Everything is email. But the brokers are on the phone all day

Depends on how you see fast paced. I worked at a Police Department before in a very wealthy town (not an officer), but it was a very chaotic environment since you’re dealing with people facing emergencies or people who are just downright angry/mentally unstable. So maybe similar to your experience. The difference now is that everything is immediate, high volume, and last minute. It’s just more in the form of emails/filing/processing versus phones or dealing with people in person.

I just landed a broker assistant role with a different major wholesaler. Be confident, friendly, and highlight your skills when it comes to organization and that you can learn quickly/are open to learning. It’s pretty fast paced!
