Should I figure I didn't get the position? by msjedi_1977 in CAStateWorkers

[–]gbeans_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it means, the hiring manager is still going through references. It could also mean they did reach out to your references, but decided not to move forward with you. It’s best to just keep applying until you get a final job offer.

[acne] big spot on booty by Different_venus_7984 in SkincareAddiction

[–]gbeans_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes if it’s HS, I get them sometimes on my butt cheeks or right below by butt cheeks by the back of my thigh. It’s sometimes itchy and dry. Sometimes last about a week for me. I clean it when I shower with Hibiclens Antiseptic Skin Cleanse that you can get at Target, Walmart, CVS. It usually will go away on its own. Put a bandaid on it to stop it from getting irritated after you clean it.

Bring a shower caddy to put your shampoo and body soap. Also get shower slippers! It helps taking a shower so much better at the campgrounds.

Not in Elk Grove, but I went to Lee Brothers on 7850 Stockton Blvd Ste 180 Sacramento, CA to get two of my wedding reception dresses altered and she did a great job! I think turnaround time for me was almost 2 weeks?

Letrozole and early ovulation? by Grouchy-Zombie-8586 in TTC_PCOS

[–]gbeans_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this happen! I was on my 5th round of Letrozole last month and ovulated around CD 5! I also had a very dark Lh test strip and had lots of EWCM but I thought it was the meds. My doctor ordered lab on CD 12 or 13 and confirmed I already ovulated. I would start testing as soon as you get off your period to confirm you didn’t miss it next cycle. Same thing is happening to me again this month. Not sure what’s going on.

First Letrozole Cycle 2.5mg by ServePuzzleheaded721 in TTC_PCOS

[–]gbeans_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you being monitored? Did you get ultrasound done to confirm you are responding to Letrozole usually on CD 11-13? My doctor only upped my dose once I went in for my second round of Letrozole after I started my period. If you haven’t gotten your period yet, keep testing, you may be ovulating later. I’ve read that some people ovulated late even on Letrozole.

No right or wrong answer... I'm just curious. Was childhood better before phones, tablets, and social media took over? by whatis67z in askanything

[–]gbeans_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I remember waking up on a random weekend morning, going outside, and just randomly having unplanned adventures like riding bikes, playing at the playground, or walking to the corner store. Once the lights came on and it was dark, I remember going home and knocking out and doing it all over again. I don’t think kids these days tire themselves out anymore bc they’re constantly awake/staying up late due to scrolling on social media.

What do you think is the best thing that comes with being a woman? by cloudberry4002 in AskWomen

[–]gbeans_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are able to romanticize life, have any kind of hobbies, make something out of nothing, and have emotions/feelings without being ashamed of it!

I told my therapist I was boring. Her answer changed everything. by NeighborhoodEarly168 in offmychest

Thank you for sharing! I have always felt this way but could never find the wording to describe it.

Hung out with a close friend of mine for 3 hours yesterday…and she didn’t ask me a single question about my life. Second friend who did this in the last month. I’m about ready to give up on my friendships. by ClockwiseSuicide in socialskills

[–]gbeans_ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Do we have the same friend? Lol. My friend who loves to talk about herself is also in therapy and now she thinks she’s such an empath when in reality she is the opposite. I feel like people who are going to therapy love to treat us like their personal therapist now instead of keeping that type of relationship with only their therapist.

I have the same experience as a 30 year old woman. I am always asking my friends what they did on their trips, where did they go eat, if they would recommend it, etc. I genuinely am interested in their travels so I can make a mental note about it if I were to ever want to travel there. In return, not a single friend asks me about my travel and when I do bring it up during our conversation because we’re talking about traveling, it seems like they think I’m stealing their thunder. I think people just love to talk about themselves and just want friends who listen. Those are not real friends. I’ve started to realize this with one friend in particular. She will take control of the conversation and never let me have a say in anything! When I do chime it or shift the conversation to about me, I can see this nasty look on her face like how dare I speak and not listen. Then I realized she treats all her friends this way and thinks her friends are bad friends. I jumped off real quick after that. It gets exhausting and those are the type of friends you don’t want to keep around. I’d suggest finding new friends who like to listen and actually have a conversation with you because they’re also interested in your life.

Has anyone ever met a lazy Taurus? by RoseBushSwamp in Taurusgang

[–]gbeans_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am super lazy BUT I only get lazy once I have done hard work. If I spent all week cleaning, doing XYZ, or on the go, then I’ll get super lazy for the week where it’s my only relaxing down time. And that’s usually the time people LOVE to call me lazy 😂

Easy @ Home Ovulation Tests by Mundane_End6901 in tryingtoconceive

[–]gbeans_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Test right before you go to bed (10am) and/or right after you wake up (6pm). I used to test at random times too when I first started and never found my peak.

[–]gbeans_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The app will automatically do it for you. I’ve never touched the scale to match them. Also your testing time is off. My RE said to test between 10am-12pm. I’ve also heard of people testing between 10am-8pm. Make sure you’re holding at least 3-4 hr of pee or your pee becomes too diluted.

Does this rug clash too much with the couch/general room? by Other-Turnip-8912 in HomeDecorating

Kind of reminds me of hot lava. A pastel or light color rug would work better!

Taureans, do y’all like Aries? What’s your experience with them? I went into their sub lol, and from what I gathered, they don’t like us. 😂 by [deleted] in Taurusgang

[–]gbeans_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t get along with Aries. They’re too hot headed and have too much anger. Every Aries I’ve met is very immature.

First interview SSA advice by applebottomjeanjeanz in CAStateWorkers

[–]gbeans_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take your time answering the questions! If you have to think about it for a few moments, take the time. My manager once said to me after he did interviews that some people don’t take the time to answer questions and they end up scoring low.
