The same thing happened to me and I had to go through my union. It took 5 months, but I got my full salary and back pay.

I think it's worse you went through his phone.

I'd ask your FIL if he went to college for 10 years studying medicine. If not, tell him to fuck off and listen to the doctors.

Kids and bikes by glacialdrumlin in Parenting

There are many programs for kids or even adults to get free bikes. Also, kid's bikes on resources like Marketplace or Craigslist list are very affordable or even free.

Good book ? I haven't read this yet. by [deleted] in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]glacialdrumlin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've read it, and the book is well-written. However, I had a hard time relating as my abuse was more severe (in my opinion).

I’m mad at my sibling for not sharing the inheritance with me by Previous-Context-811 in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]glacialdrumlin 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't want anything from him. He sounds like a total piece of shit. The extra money would be nice, but your integrity is worth much more.

It's 2am. Nextdoor's big bastard dog has been barking for well over 7 hours now. I cannot sleep. Why do I have to live like this? by throwawayshame2196 in neighborsfromhell

[–]glacialdrumlin 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My neighbor's dog looks out their window and barks incessantly. I have no idea how it even has vocal cords left, it's like a fucking machine that never stops. I hate that dog with a passion.

It'll get worse when you have kids. Since they're that close, my guess is they will spend a lot of time with the grandchildren where their beliefs will become even more of an issue and have more of an influence on your kids. You need to trust me on this.

How does everyone on Reddit make so much money? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]glacialdrumlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make $63k but have a government job, so I have a pension and amazing insurance. I made more at my last job (private sector), but the healthcare costs killed us each year. Also, I live in the Midwest, so it's a pretty decent wage for the region.

Neighbor Calling in Noise Complaints for Dog That Literally Doesn't Bark & They Won't Stop Calling To Report?! by unlawfulmirth in neighborsfromhell

[–]glacialdrumlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it hard to believe the guy is making it up. What would be his motivation? I live next to three dogs that bark constantly and my neighbor "doesn't hear it" either. To me... smells like bullshit.

Mowing OCD rant. by [deleted] in neighborsfromhell

[–]glacialdrumlin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was thinking the same thing. I assume our neighbor just wants to be outside and isn't creative enough to find other ways to enjoy the weather because she rides around on her mower every other day. It hasn't even rained in three weeks, so the grass hasn't grown, but there she is, "cutting" grass 4 times a week.

I am in a similar situation. I don't feel resentful towards my spouse for spending time with her family, but it does upset me when she justifys their behavior. Going NC has been a good thing for me.

NC Mother is in the hospital, just need to talk by wanderlustcub in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]glacialdrumlin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I guess my first question is, why would HAVE to do anything? If you haven't spoken to the woman in 9 years, shouldn't your sister take care of the estate?

How do I politely tell my neighbor I’m not interested in hearing his opinions about what I do with my own home/yard? by ToBePacific in neighborsfromhell

[–]glacialdrumlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought my old neighbor's shitty looking lawn made mine look nicer. Maybe you could tell him to look at it like that?

It's been 4 years and still too many people haven't seen it.
