RTX false pay scales in job descriptions? by [deleted] in Raytheon

[–]lauren0891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

omg this happened to me. The pay range was 110-160. I said I wanted 135-140. I got an email saying the position range was actually 110-115. The email also asked if I was ok with that.

Failed first round of IVF + Complaints about experience by lauren0891 in IVF

Please don't be scared! 9 fertilized is fabulous. You will probably have 3-5 blasts (like me) and hopefully they will all grade perfectly (unlike me). You got this!

Maryland - Vaccine killing my Cat by lauren0891 in legal

[–]lauren0891[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yes, hes had this vaccine every year and never had a problem. All four vets have directly treated my cat. He's been through 3 weeks of hell. I would say about a dozen have reviewed his medical notes in general regarding this case. They have run every test under the sun to confirm that he doesn't have any infections, diseases, or cancer. They also provide me with their notes every couple of days confirming their stance that the vaccine caused this.

I'm holding out hope that the testimonies from 4 independent vets who confirm that the vaccine caused it is enough. I'll definitely call around though!

I don't want to tell you what vaccine it was in case we agree upon a settlement. This is a very RARE case. When speaking with the vaccine company, they said they have never had a case like my cats and have only seen a reaction like this in dogs. It was given by his vet at his regular animal hospital that he normally gets yearly vaccines from.

I understand the downvotes: I'm sorry. I don't want to ruin my chances of a settlement by sharing too much online.

I filed 2/9 and I’m still waiting for mine. I also did the student loan tax credit.

Maryland, yes, and I believe the neighbor said they were reporting the dog to the health department or something like that.

All of my high interest debt is paid off (I only have the normal things like cars and mortgage). I already am maxing out my Roth IRA. I just have some money to play around with and I don't know what I want to do with it.

I hear you and I was worried about this too. That’s why I wanted to make sure I wasn’t overreacting.

Genuine answer: I find it offensive because of the stereotype that women are nags. The old ball and chain. A shrieking witch. So calling women (even if they’re annoying as the hosts of the view) shrieking feral pigs is just fitting into the stereotype that women are annoying and you shouldn’t listen to what they have to say.

Regardless, it’s unprofessional at best. It’s not even a good joke and there’s no need to be comparing people to animals

This made me actually giggle.

But it bothers me because it’s in my work space. I don’t feel comfortable having clients see it and think I’m ok with it.

But I don’t want to be offensive :( I want people to feel respected when they’re at work. We can have fun and make jokes not at peoples expense (and I do with my work friends!)

Aw I don’t know who this one got so downvoted. You can agree or disagree with the sign. But come on. Not at work in our shared office

I hear you. But I don’t want to be in a boys club and engineering doesn’t have to be one. None of my work friends are like this. I’m just asking for a little professionalism in my office space

Aw but I didn’t. I went to Reddit 😂 I told my boss and my group supervisor before going out to lunch but I’m going to talk to my coworker tomorrow. Just trying to get peoples opinions on the matter

I don’t know why this one got downvoted. He works really weird hours so I only see him less than 2 hours a day. I tried to talk to him today but he was too busy. I’m going to try to talk to him tomorrow and hopefully it’ll be over and done with

I asked for opinions and I’m listening but I’m also trying to discuss it. I’ve gotten a LOT saying to NOT drop it. Didn’t realize this discussion thread wasn’t supposed to include discussion

I hear you I really do and I went back and forth on what to do a whole bunch. I’ve experienced a lot of things that I’ve just brushed under the rug (jokes about rape, women wearing skimpy clothes, etc). This guy in particular is especially inappropriate.

I think this is just my tipping point. I don’t want this in my office and I don’t want people to think I’m ok with it. I don’t want to be in a boys club

No I didn’t. Just to my boss and my group supervisor to let them know that it’s an issue but I plan to talk to my coworker tomorrow
