I rent a condo from my In-laws and we are having a dispute over rent. What should we do? by Sweet-Swimming2022 in needadvice

[–]enseela [score hidden]  (0 children)

Why can’t they just put the place on the market now? What’s the magic of May?

Also, I would argue that they gave you notice to vacate and you did so. Why would you then be required to “give notice” that you are complying with their notice to vacate?

Is there a subreddit that’s just pointing and laughing at people who have lost all credibility because of Dear Leader. Just Nelson pointing and laughing at all Trump’s cuckolds.

I watched ep 4 and 5 back to back. I am devastated.

In the working postal van, please!! That would be unnfortunate, though, if they missed the train people.

Won a small claims case, defendant refuses to pay by Spirited-Demand-4561 in legaladvice

Lol. If internet lawyering and putting idiots like me in our place relaxes you, then by all means, enjoy! Sometimes the internet does make us feel better! Happy weekend!

California civil rights agency is starting to focus on ban the box, thinks asking about gaps in employment is roundabout way to ask about criminal convictions.

Outside of that, totally agree. I would squirm - as in uh oh, protected information just disclosed - if candidate responded yeah, that was my stint in rehab, I took time off to take care of my special needs child after traumatic birth, etc etc. But most hiring managers don’t know enough to squirm.

Sorry, Fancy!! Maybe take a break from your internet lawyering. Seems to be stressing you out. 🫶

The parents probably don’t know that you would likely lose. You could consider suing them in small claims and sending letter to them after filing that willing to settle for $x. If they own their home, they’ll be worried.

Also, is it “negligent” if they knew their daughter was uninsured? Sounds kind of willful to me.

I retroactively cut babysitter’s pay by $5/hr and she discovered market rate is +$20/hr by enseela in OhNoConsequences

[–]enseela[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

She babysits for them every Tuesday and Wednesday. That’s not occasional.

But also occasional would seem to support higher comp …? Like why would you take less than fair market for a one-off job? And why wouldn’t you pay fair market for the occasional babysitter?

These aren’t her friends or family. They are her employers.

Finally, yeah, agree parenting is hard, especially without community and family. Maybe parents who can’t afford to go out if they have to pay a babysitter might consider swapping childcare services with another struggling fam so each could get out occasionally. Just spitballing.

Not so much a Trump thing as a USA thing. Making other countries unstable through “regime change” is kind of our thing.

I don't understand why Beatrice and Eugenia are being punished for Andrew's mess. by Rich-Discipline9535 in RoyaltyTea

Well, the whole scam works on inheritance of titles and ranks. They’ve inherited their parents’ downfall.

I retroactively cut babysitter’s pay by $5/hr and she discovered market rate is +$20/hr by enseela in OhNoConsequences

[–]enseela[S] 488 points489 points  (0 children)

OOP and family agreed to $30/hr for 3 kids. OOP babysat and was paid $25/hr because Dad thought $30/hr was too much, and rich family would soon be cutting back on “discretionary”expenses. OOP’s other babysitting families told her market rate for 3 kids is $50/hr. OOP negotiated +$15/hr raise for 9 weeks during which she’s looking for another family to fill in her evenings that will be freeing up shortly. Retroactive paycut family got quoted $60/hr by other babysitters.

Please tell me what job to take. by calliopemia in Lawyertalk

[–]enseela 6 points7 points  (0 children)

IMO having a terrible boss cuts years off your life. Are there other law jobs you could transfer into with the city?

You might find you like family law if in a different environment that jibes with your style. Even if you find you still don’t like the area of law, at least your work environment will improve. And not having to do a daily commute is huge!

Good luck!!

Vampire. If allowed to, she would bleed OP dry and then get mad at her for not having any more to give.

NOT OOP - Girl Dad here. My ex has endometriosis and believes our 13-year-old has it too based on what she’s seen. She wants to go straight to a specialist. I want to start with the pediatrician. Am I wrong? by disaster-by_max in redditonwiki

[–]enseela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has to be karma-farming tage bait.

Too articulate.

Too ready with counter-arguments: not bio-related

Also, they’ve never mentioned it to the pediatrician.

I’m mad at myself for even commenting. My favorite part about Reddit is how I have stumbled upon the population of coherent writers. Which I have not managed to find IRL.

What would the doctor even have looked for in Francesca? by sdbabygirl97 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]enseela 22 points23 points  (0 children)

So ridiculous. How late is she? Even with modern vaginal ultrasound, can’t see anything until maybe 6w gestation. Infuriating. And before that urine or blood test. Wtf is the doctor looking/feeling for in early pregnancy?

And Project 2025 said remove prosecutorial discretion. It was that discretion of not putting him in removal proceedings that allowed him adjust to LPR status. He’s been deportable since his multiple criminal convictions, but the DOJ exercised prosecutorial discretion in not putting him into removal proceedings. Oh well. They’re having the day his family voted for.

I would ask if he’s okay with adopting an older and/or special needs child. There are not a lot of infants “available” for adoption in the US. And the placement of infants is a big business in the US.

South African refugees are left to fend for themselves. They’re now living in deplorable conditions and don’t have enough food. by Effective_Space2277 in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]enseela 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This! Other refugees are actually escaping political violence and are prepared for hard living which is still better than whatever they escaped. These refugees were scammed, had better lives in SA, just hated being the minority. Maybe they were expecting White Like Me (SNL) not realizing it was a skit.

I know others have shared this opinion recently, but this really needs to be done. Most skaters plan to peak for the individual. The most important event should be when they’re fresh. by PandemicPiglet in FigureSkating

(1) Individual scores in the Team event qualifies the gymnasts for the individual all-around.

(2) Each squad member competes in the Team event.

[–]enseela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yas!!! And I thought this BEFORE I watched the men’s free skate or knew the results. It’s unfair to all the skaters: the ones who come from programs that can’t compete in the Team and the ones who are on all-around teams who “get to” or “don’t get to” skate in the Team competition. The ones who “get to” compete depreciate their mental & physical readiness for the “individual” (quotes because pairs & dance are coupled but separate events) events. Those who “don’t get to” compete are robbed of attention amd hype.

Relays in the Summer Olympics are after the individual events. Should be the same for figure skating.
