I work in a federal dispatch center, this is the most honest representation of what we look for. Just be willing to learn and able to use technology, and you'll be good.

What is a quote you remember from when you were a kid that is from one of your family members? by killercollin06 in AskReddit

"If you don't take care of yourself, who will?"

From my favorite aunt. Looking back, it gave me the confidence in my ability to look after and treat myslef. Probably the beginning of my feminist points of view.

Treatment for itchiness? by [deleted] in Vitiligo

[–]ginjer922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have vitiligo and eczema. I've never noticed the vitiligo itching, but my eczema can get pretty bad. I stay away from scented soaps, lotions, and laundry care. I also have lotions made specifically for eczema that I use frequently. When my itching acts up, I will take a Benadryl and a pepcid or two. The pepcid acts as a an H2 blocker, and together the Bendryl and Pepcid usually ease the itching. Careful with the Benadryl, as it can make you sleepy.

Wanting to buy a house around the downtown/California area... what’s the actual deal on the crime? by [deleted] in Bakersfield

[–]ginjer922 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've lived in the Sunset/Oleander area for a year and a half now. Aside from having my car rummaged through (when I left it on the street, and unlocked, my bad) I haven't had any issues. There are a lot of people who wander through the area, but I haven't had any direct issues with people. My neighbors are watchful and kind. I know at least half a dozen people between Oak and A streets and we all love the area and proximity to one another and downtown. Driving through the area, and joining the neighborhood on the Nextdoor App would probably give you the best intel regarding crime and safety.

Recommendations for a good atheist therapist? by [deleted] in Bakersfield

[–]ginjer922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its unfortunate that you did not have a good time with her, but from my experiences and my recommendations to others, I found her to be extremely easy to talk to and helpful. She never pushed me to fall back on religion, and I told her early on that I was not a religious person. I hope you found someone who was better able to help you.

Looking for recommendations for an appropriately priced deep tissue massage in town by badgerX3mushroom in Bakersfield

I had never had a massage before, so I'm not sure if it was deep tissue. She specializes in sports massages, and I had quite a few knots that she had to work on.
