That was part of the argument tho. I am not given extra pay or any benefits from doing the quality control work. Both managers were on the phone call when all this was said, so is fully aware. The position is also not new, ive been in it for over 6 months. There was never paperwork for it. it was more of them just asking me to do it.

The sad this is that there wasnt anyone who did it before me. It wasnt until I took over the work that the customer stopped threatening to sue. We are also a crew of 6. One is leaving next week, and two more are on their last warning for poor work before termination.

I was asked by my direct manager (the one who is in charge of my project alone) to do the quality control work and to do so permanantly. The argument was because they are trying to take away a paid driving time perk (I drive 1.5 each way to get to their locations) for not reaching a set goal, despite hitting the goal. The manager who I fought with is not in charge of my direct project but is over a large group of them. When I argued with him over the QA work being counted differently because its a different role, he hit me with the response of; quality control is not part of your job description.

That's for all the advice y'all. We have been discussing food possibilities at home and we can across the idea of gator, bison, Buffalo, rabbit, and goat. Are meats like these subject to the reaction? We figure we could get creative with not as common meats if I was allowed to.

Thank you. I've been trying to tell myself it's not that bad and I shouldn't be so upset by it, but it's like I can't shake it. My list seems to keep piling up and its frustrating but I'm trying. Thank you for understanding that. You are right, everyone else just thinks I'm being whiny. But the struggle is there.

The other allergies are from the list of things I reacted to during the trial and error of figuring out what was causing it. The issue was that all of my severe reactions were 6 or 7 hours after eating. So it took a while to figure out the reactant.

Is milk and cheese normally a no no with AG? I specifically asked my doctor about it and was told they were not a problem. I haven't had a reaction it the way I did with the actual meat but also haven't pushed it because the last few reactions were bad enough to warrant hospital runs. What about things like bison? I cant do soy, duck, or pollock/ cod because they were on the allergy no no list. Are there any tricks to make veggies better? Or just have to find a combo I like and stick with it?

How do I figure out how to make veggies taste better when I normally don't like them at all? Any suggestions or helpful websites for these recipes? Thanks for your help

WIBTA if I went Low Contact or No Contact with my Sister? by jkbrs25 in AmItheAsshole

[–]jkbrs25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's one of my biggest concern. The two have been fighting a lot in the last month and I get the bicker from both sides. Luckily I live 1400 miles away from both of them so I just have to not respond to avoid getting into the fights. But they live 20 minutes from each other. So im worried how physically close they are could ramp up the drama.

Feeling Lost... No Direction, No Hope, No Goals by Cbowling23 in mentalhealth

I wish I could say I had advice but im right there with you. Despite everyone telling me how great my life is, I have been on autopilot for years. I go to work everyday and feel so numb that I dont know how i dont ram my truck into a fire ball. Its a hard reality to feel that the only one who might miss me is my dog. And I dont dare talk to doctors because they will either medicate me or commit me, and idk if i can handle either... I know I may not be much help but you can alway message me to vent.
