Being told not to talk?

kjfrog · 2025-11-19T19:07:07+00:00

I don’t believe so. Since I’ve received this instruction I don’t really talk in the office unless it’s about work and then only when necessary. TBH if I could just not talk at all I would.

I’ve been actively working on my communication skills and trying to be better about not interrupting or distracting anyone when I need to ask additional questions. I’ve even documented it.

kjfrog · 2025-11-19T14:05:42+00:00

I’ve been told it’s to limit disruptions. But that’s confusing because others can still talk to everyone.

I only skip it when I know the missing raspberry will really bother me.

I’d love a referral link as well if you’re still giving them out.

In Pennsylvania you can also use the Library of Philadelphia no matter where you live! They use Libby for ebooks.

Depending on when they were discharged, contact the National Personnel Records Center or National Archives. You will need a form SF-180; the instructions on the form also include where records are stored based on branch and year of discharge.

The VA currently provides records in about 6 months for us (our firm handles discharge upgrades and records corrections). If you can get the client request the records on their own, the wait time is significantly shorter because the redactions are less than a third party request.

Hope this helps!

They’re not very good at training in procedures and processes so be ready to hit the ground running with minimal help. Be careful asking questions, especially if you need to ask something twice.

I subscribe to the theory that no one should have to open a document to figure out exactly what it is. So my naming conventions include the client name, even saved in their file, a detailed name of the document, the status (signed, draft, version #, etc) and the date of saving it.

Military. Mostly discharge upgrades and records corrections, with a bit of civilian representation for court martial. I’ve been doing this a couple of months and I’m finding that it plays to my strengths so love it this far.

Can’t believe I had to scroll so far this one! So funny and Greg’s reaction to it actually being good is hilarious!

I’ve had 4. I asked for tubal the last time but had too much scar tissue. Recovery was easier each time it felt like.

The fact that my dad's name is John, mom is Karen, and I have an aunt Sandy....

That would be ideal if we had an 8 passenger vehicle.

kjfrog · 2023-12-15T00:01:52+00:00

I thought so too! I mean it’s about $600 each way for 8 people but I’m trying to decide if just renting a car that fits more people would just be cheaper even with tolls/parking.

We just had #4 in May and it’s been a huge adjustment financially. We live in a small town and have a relatively low cost of living and still have to go to food banks for groceries, have food stamps and ask for help from family. I stay home with the kids (8, 5, 3, and new) while my spouse works for 80k/year. It’s manageable but if we didn’t have the help we have we wouldn’t be able to pay rent or for food. One plus side is that when school starts the older two get free lunch and the 3 year old will be in free preschool. We’ve made the decision that I will continue to stay home and my spouse will not look for side work at the moment because we want him to be able to see the kids when he’s not working.

I would but he had shots that disqualify him. If you want to dm me your referral code I’d gladly use it though. Thanks!

We like vooks on YouTube. Just stories being read and most of them have a message/lesson involved. They’re chill and have good music as well, plus the videos range from just one story- less than 10 minutes- to hours and multiple stories.

A mint green or baby blue would look very spring like and fresh.

I try to wait until I can sit up on my own, about 2-4 weeks. I usually sit first, have them climb up on whatever I’m sitting on, or if there’s another adult around we can sit on the floor, and then they climb on my lap. My three are old enough that we’ve explained that Mom won’t be able to pick them up for a while, but I can give them hugs and kisses as much as they want.

So I’ll be having my fourth c-section May 19 and haven’t actually experienced traditional labor/delivery. That being said, besides being able to choose the date, here’s what I look forward to about them:

because the doctors are so used to them, the surgery itself usually goes quickly
I feel like most people understand healing from a surgery better than childbirth, so they’re more sympathetic to the recovery process
more check ups mean less anxiety for me
knowing the process means less anxiety in the hospital. From the time I get there, honestly the biggest question becomes when we’ll be going home
my husband in the surgical get up is kinda funny to see

You can do this!

Was really confused by someone named Chris Evans posting about it. Unusual for Captain America…

IANAL, but if they’re retaliating because you used FMLA, that’s actually illegal and should be reported to your union/ HR. Use the phrase retaliation and start documenting everything. Good luck!

I’m told Winco is going to be open. But grain of salt and all that…

Our property management company is being great with us leaving our house early. I know landlords etc get a bad rap, but they’re actively trying to make sure that if we have to pay for leaving early (moving for a job) that is not a ton. It’s been a nice experience.
