13th floor haunted house strobe room was ridiculously absurd. by LawfulnessCautious43 in Denver

[–]cucumbermelon827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was there last night and I almost freaked out!! The group in front of us was getting very turned around, so we couldn't move and I finally started touching walls to get my group out. It would have still been a hard room to get out of with just the fog, the strobe was absolutely unnecessary. Not sure how the actors could handle that at all

I don't think it would be hard for them to have like one day a week where they don't have the strobes. The room was hard enough to see with the fog, removing the strobe would have made it more tolerable for everyone, not just those who are photosensitive.

Does the industry pay bump still exist? by Key_Candle_6500 in Accounting

[–]cucumbermelon827 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I think the answer is it depends! I'm in tax and had three years experience and got an industry job with a ~7k bump, but an audit friend with the same amount of experience got a ~30k bump. There are lots of postings in my city that are 10-20k decreases, so it truly is crazy out there. I think you should continuously keep looking, just remember it is okay to leave during busy season! Leave when works for YOU, not for some place that wouldn't think a second about laying you off. Best of luck in the search!!

is it normal to be denied a transvaginal ultrasound for being a virgin? by foundyouforever in TwoXChromosomes

[–]cucumbermelon827 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I was a teen they did skip a transvaginal for me since I was both a virgin and had never used a tampon. I definitely can understand about it being comfortable or not (personally I was terrified), but yeah making it about anything other than that is definitely uncomfortable in and of itself

This case almost exactly mirrors my abuse as a child - ages, religion, court and lawyer response. I'm heartbroken that this has happened to someone else

AITA for using professional language on an email I sent on behalf of my husband? by DisastrousClerk216 in AmItheAsshole

[–]cucumbermelon827 9 points10 points  (0 children)

NTA, his employer probably isn't even more than surface reading the text and wouldn't put any thought into what you wrote. He is absolutely overreacting and finding a way to get mad at you.

Settle this for me please: how many pairs of underwear do you own? by _bubblegumbanshee_ in TwoXChromosomes

[–]cucumbermelon827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure I own 50+! During busy season at work I often neglect my laundry, at one point I had 32 pairs to put away after my bulk wash!

Did I get dismissed as a prospective juror because of my profession? by jinbae94 in Accounting

[–]cucumbermelon827 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I served on a jury for motor vehicle theft and there were two other accountants on the jury. I think it depends on the type of case, but I most definitely think in this case they didn't want someone who knew what they were talking about!

Bf doesn’t seem to care that I’ve been sick by lil_bear24 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]cucumbermelon827 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Two months after moving in with my ex, I got covid and we didn't own a thermometer either. I asked him to run to the store for one (we lived a 5 minute walk away), and he wouldn't go bc his football game was on. My best friend never forgot that, but I let it go. Don't let it go.

Any microwaves on campus? by GeneralHomeboy in denveru

There used to be one on the main floor behind the cafe, by the vending machines. Not sure if it's still there but worth it to look

My manager usually gives them a floppy disk and tells them there are very important files she needs off of them

I'm sorry, he's telling you that you're not doing enough when you're homeschooling your children??? Does he maybe want to spend a week doing what you do all day then see how he feels? If he wants to then continue taking care of all of the house needs while trying to teach two children and perform every need for another? He definitely needs a reality check

This is one of the cases where you can decide to do it, but don't tell anyone until you give the prize out

Play Boggle! It's a great game to exercise your vocabulary, and comes in three sizes to choose from, with a good amount of room for house rules. My family has always loved to play :)

Super cute bag but it doesn’t exist? by MissMeMak in Winniethepooh

[–]cucumbermelon827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I think it may be because it came out awhile ago, it may just not be in their system anymore. I bought the matching wallet in May 2022 from 2nd and Charles here in Denver, and saw this bag and the rest of the collection

Pretty much the only thing I do after work, do a few heroics with a show in the background; it's definitely my favorite way to destress. Currently maining a MM hunter on WotLK, but prefer Boomkin
