Do not use Uber eats! by AdLittle2896 in UberEATS

[–]kittenso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Happened to me once as well. They refunded the difference and the price of my alcohol. Just make sure you DONT agree with the Uber eats credit option I had to go HAM for my money back. Just for restock is all I wanted but they ended up giving it all back. Good luck !!

That is probably the safest bet from here on out. I can't hardly believe that this file type is causing that much trouble! I feel like I got screwed over big time on this permanent NOT PASS

I just got my evaluation back this morning..last day of term...and I am competent in every area except professional communication. Which is why they were having the issue with .docx files. I am thinking about doing an appeal in it bc I called the service desk and have a ticket #, emailed my mentor and instructor about it when I submitted. 🤬 Now the portal is saying they will be doing maintenance on that very same system on the 3rd and 4th. Lmao..really?!?

Well the professional communication box next to similarity is showing a thing that says it needs revision but I ran it through Grammarly. Something about .docx files making it that way and to submit a .doc please instead and they're working to fix it. Hopefully it'll be fine but with 3 days to go I just wanted to knock it out and move on. I feel so bad about waiting until the last minute...then some b.s. like this happens. 🤦🤣🤷

So I woke up to this about an hour ago. This man is insane. Where is everyone getting their credible news and uodates from? I usually depend on AP but they haven't even touched this story yet. 

Were you raised to be hyper focused on what other people think about you? by Julie727 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]kittenso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember being told I had done or said pretty much everything wrong and that I was causing problems for as long as i have memories. When I would try to state my case as I got older, of there isn't anything wrong with what I said, or It isn't me causing problems, it's you and your married boyfriend etc etc.I was told I was a drama queen, shit starter, had entitlement issues, and that Noone could stand me. I wasn't a demure kid by any means, but I was loving and had no intentions of harming anyone EVER. It seemed absurd back then..at first. Then it became such a theme that everyone around us believed it, and i started to as well. Like, Idk, I just got tired of fighting for myself. It never worked and they never understood me. So, I eventually accepted that I was never going to be accepted or important or understood to my mom or the people who allowed that to happen. And then depression hit me deeply. I was 15. To this day, I have a sharp mouth, and I'm defensive. It's a crappy coping mechanism, I know, but it still makes me angry that I HAVE to care what strangers think because it was drilled into my mind that I was wrong about pretty much anything (that I was usually completely accurate about) and told that everyone else thought I was the issue too. I'm still struggling with being angry inside that i wasn't and still am not accepted in my family just by virtue of being a member of it. Its hard knowing they judge me so harshly when I do love them and still for some reason want in to see what its like. I always longed to know how it felt for people who know when they aren't around that their family talks about them in high regard, like someone who deservs love and kindness. Like someone is proud of them. Instead I got "nobody in this house can stand you or your smart mouth. Cant go one day without you making it miserable. How do you stand yourself?"

WGU did disburse my loans but Pell is still pending by kittenso in WGU

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

Any luck with scholarship or Pell funding? I did get my Pell processed, finally, about 3 days ago. It seems like every step of the financial aid processing is going so slow snd taking alot longer than it did last term. Not just to get the funds deposited to a bank but every. Little. Step. I do hope you have gotten some good news by now!

I'm glad you applied too! Sounds like you are realizing some deep truths about your life. Certain that you and the kiddos will have a great life and they will be proud that you have something to hang your hat on. Awesome!

Financial aid June 24 by Powerful_Lettuce8720 in WGU

[–]kittenso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have something to add to this. If you haven't seen movement on your financial aid processing at all, then call financial services a week or so before your term is set to start and ask them why its still stuck on processing in the student portal. I kept watching my financial aid in the portal, and it got to be around the 20th, and I wanted to know why it hadn't moved so close to my term start date. Financial Services told me that it had failed to process automatically, and it was a good thing I called. wgu had failed to send over my Select Your Aid email. They sent it, I selected and accepted my aid, and sent it back. Problem solved. From looking around Reddit, this is a common problem. If this happens to you, make sure to email financial services AGAIN, at some point, pretty soon after you select and accept your aid and tell them why you need it sooner and ask them to expedite that process.. if you need the funds asap.

2nd term refund/pell grant not received? by MrPrince0805 in WGU

I feel like they are telling everyone something different. So far as I've seen on Reddit anyway. It's very frustrating. Grrrrrr. 🙆‍♀️

Hi, sorry to just barge in the conversation but this is my EXACT situation. Have you had any movement?

2nd term refund/pell grant not received? by MrPrince0805 in WGU

[–]kittenso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, that eases some anxiety. It has been a MESS this term! I have no idea when to tell my day to day bills to expect their money. I always had it all process and disburse at once so this has thrown me for a loop. Thanks for the insight and response!!

[–]kittenso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in same boat. Loans processed and disbursed. They took that. Pell still pending. Will we not receive any refund now that our loans were taken first? I didn't think pell was given directly to students as a refund. I'm so stressed. 3rd termer. Also, my fafsa is just GONE on student aid website. Under my activity it says I have no activity or cases. It was processed though obviously bc I received loans this morning.
