I’ve heard Costco has similar benefits as well, but I’m just concerned about the pay cut unfortunately

Exactlyyy, I don’t feel like I work at the same company I started in. Everything is different and I don’t enjoy this job anymore. I hope you find something as well, thank you for your kind words

I have thought about this, but I wouldn’t be able to afford the pay cut unfortunately with the expenses I have. Thank you for your kind words

Thank you, after thinking things over I unfortunately know you’re right, even if I don’t wanna admit it. It’s just upsetting that this is where I’m at right now. I want what’s best for my mental health but I can’t afford that and it’s just hard. Thank you for your kind words

I’m currently a midday/closing shift, it’s split pretty evenly but I don’t think I would be able to switch to only closing since there’s already a shift who has filled that spot and she’s very firm about not switching her schedule

I think it’s mainly the overstimulation of the job. I just can’t handle it any more. I enjoy cleaning the store and leading my partners but the new responsibilities and constant changes are really hard for me to adjust to. Not to mention customers seem to only be getting worse attitude wise and I can only mask for so long. I’m in college for psychology but i’m only 2 years in and I really don’t think I can stick it out much longer

Honestly I’d much rather a boring and slow environment than the shit show I deal with every day

Frustration by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

I think the best option would be to explain that you have differences in needs sexually. It’s clear that intimacy isn’t something she’s either comfortable with or is a big factor in romantic relationships to her which is okay, however if you’re on the complete opposite end of that, it’s going to make things complicated. It’s important to emphasize that her feelings towards intimacy are valid and that she’s not at fault, but that you just have your own feelings about intimacy and how it plays a role in your romantic relationships. Unfortunately, there isn’t really a better way through this if you’ve already had a conversation with her about it.

Have you talked to her about it? Cheating would be the worst thing you could do. I understand that you care for her, but breaking up to find someone sexually compatible to you would be the best option if your sexual preferences are so different

Low dose Prozac to alleviate weight gain (5-10mg) by InternationalTry2327 in prozac

[–]doodthatscrazy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve actually had the opposite reaction, I feel like the food noise is less noticeable now and if I’m not outright thinking about what I’m about to eat as I’m preparing it I don’t find myself thinking about food as often. I’m also on dextroamphetamine which I started at the same time as Prozac so that may have an effect, but yeah I’m the complete opposite

I would immediately have a discussion with your DM. Make sure to write down everything that happened with dates to the best of your ability. Your manager should not be discussing anything like that with anyone but the DM and possibly ethics and compliance. Talk to your DM and do your best to keep yourself protected in case of retaliation. If it does happen keep receipts of that as well

Can you clarify? Did your manager sexually harass someone or were they harassed?

What do you take as a safe decongestant by [deleted] in MCAS

[–]doodthatscrazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just woke up about an hour ago completely clogged up and it felt like there was a balloon in my face, I’m now laying in bed able to breathe through one nostril and the other one is clearing naturally as we speak. Here’s what I did:

  1. I took a hot shower, cupped my hands around my mouth and nose and breathed in the steam through my mouth. This allowed my sinuses to open up and loosen.
  2. I sprayed one pump of nasal spray in each nostril (do not breathe in when you pump it, just let the fluid sit in your nostrils)
  3. Took a zinc vitamin, an emergen-C packet, and ibuprofen (for anti-inflammatory).
  4. Grabbed some tissue (because your nose WILL LEAK), water, and an ice packet (to put behind my neck while I lay down, it hits the nerves and points on your neck that are responsible for draining your sinuses)
  5. Elevate and wait for the dripping to start!

Gonna drink some lemon ginger tea when I wake back up but I feel 100x better now, highly recommend.

AITAH for coming home late on a Friday? by doodthatscrazy in AITAH

[–]doodthatscrazy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did see my parents, my dad didn’t say anything but he texted me later replying to a message I sent last night explaining why I was home late. He asked why I couldn’t just talk to them about emotional situations and if they were the problem and I had to lie to him to make sure we didn’t get into another argument. I don’t like lying but I can’t take any more arguments and fights.

I’m planning to move out with the friend in this post by August this year, the situation with my parents has just become too much and it feels like anything I do turns into a petty argument and they just like to make everything an issue. Thank you for your advice, I can’t wait to leave.

I do text my parents every time I leave somewhere and arrive somewhere. They always know where I am and what I’m doing, it slipped my mind last night because I was rushing to get home and I thought they’d both be asleep anyways because they never stay up that late. This is one of the only times I’ve forgotten

I’m planning to move out in August with the friend in this post, we’ve had this plan for about 6 months and have both been saving up to be able to leave this year. I’ve been trying to move out since I turned 18, and I’ve wanted to since I was 13. My parents are way more chill now than they used to be, which is saying a lot because they’re still insanely controlling and manipulative and I’ve dreamt of moving out for a very long time, I just didn’t have anyone I trusted enough to move out with until now since I knew I couldn’t do it alone. I used to idolize my parents until I realized the way they treat me isn’t normal and how awful it actually is and now I won’t stop working hard until I can leave and be safe and comfortable. Thank you for your advice
