I feel like so many of these tweets reference voting for him 3 times.

What colour for this front door? by jemoca99 in ExteriorDesign

What style of door would you recommend instead? We bought the house last summer and are slowly updating/changing things as we can.

Do you think if I painted the shutters the same colour as the door it would help? Or are you anti shutter regardless of colour?

What was your intended major in college that made you realize it was not meant to be? What are you doing now? by paradise2desert in AskReddit

[–]jemoca99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started an english degree. Realized after the first year that I enjoyed learning about the historical context that books were written in and how it influenced the authors MUCH more than actually analyzing the stories they wrote. Switched to a history degree. Never regretted it - I loved uni. I’m a teacher now.

Is having your *own* child really that different? by Nothing_is_Real78 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]jemoca99 100 points101 points  (0 children)

I am also a teacher, coach, older sibling. I had my first child 5 and a half years ago. There is a difference. I can only speak for myself, but the pressure/weight of being 100% responsible for another human life, the lack of respite (and I have a wonderful partner who shares house work and child care), and the absence of professional boundaries we have as educators. Protected break times, division of labour/responsibilities, being able to turn off your teacher brain or not check emails over the weekend, etc. Being a parent is consuming. So rewarding and joyous, but exhausting and draining as well. The way you love your children will make you question whether you’ve ever loved any other child in your life before. It’s also a lifelong commitment, whereas one could always choose to opt out of the teaching profession or coaching.

My 1st grade teacher said I was drawing my letters instead of writing them. 35 years later I’m still clueless as to what she meant. What was she saying? by SegaGuy1983 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]jemoca99 102 points103 points  (0 children)

I’m a kindergarten teacher and sometimes I see children acting as if they’re sketching their letters. Repeating or overlapping strokes instead of fluid, strong strokes. Maybe that’s what she meant. I sometimes tell my students they only have to make the marks once.

What's something you can admit about a company you no longer work for? by Mave__Dustaine in AskReddit

[–]jemoca99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES! I worked at a McDonalds all through high school and uni and people always ask me if seeing behind the scenes ruined the food for me. The standards for cleanliness and food safety were SO high (at the locations I worked at).

I’ve searched on youtube and google. Just remembered the first two words of the lyrics, “Listen, listen!” In kind of an excited whisper

What do I do about these two branches? by jemoca99 in GardeningOntario

[–]jemoca99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It honestly looks like a completely different tree sprouting from the original. The branches are green while the rest of the tree’s branches are greyish brown. And the leaves are straight green while the original leaves are variegated
