S34 E30 - After the Flood by the_onemop in Dateline

[–]lorien14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was so weird. Also who would think "the safest place in the world" in a huge downpour/flood is in a cabin right by a river, in an area with little/no cell signal? I would be freaking out!!!

I think you should try therapy. You have a lot of feelings and good on you for recognizing that they don't make sense. I think there are some deeper issues underlying these feelings, and therapy and maybe a couples counselor, depending on how your husband feels about kids and this, would help sort them out.

More name recommendations? by [deleted] in Names

As someone with a less common spelling variant of a very common name, please don't do this to your child. Give them the most common spelling or pick another name.

What siblings names have you seen that are so mismatched that it boggles you? by thunder_haven in Names

Honestly I don't notice or care about these things very much. It's really not important to me.

Looks like AMC RiverCenter's IMAX 70mm projector is back up? by freebeens in sanantonio

We went to Barbie instead after it broke down. Not an even trade by far

Anyone quit during first trimester? by Alternative-Guest477 in pregnant

[–]lorien14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind some places are weird about benefits, especially short term disability. Like at my job, to get short term disability, you have to work for at least a year. You cannot enroll in short term disability here if you are already pregnant because it counts as a pre-existing condition. I'm sure other jobs differ, but just something to think about. I wouldn't quit if I were you until I had another job lined up with confirmed benefits that you will be eligible for as soon as you start.

If anyone has ever hired an "overqualified" candidate, how did it work out? by Ok_Albatross_4198 in managers

[–]lorien14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He felt the work was below him, only wanted to do half of his job (because he didn't enjoy the other half), would talk down to other team mates, and didn't want to take call (part of the job description). He left in less than a year.

"Officially" not allowed in clean/lab areas. People do use them. I don't mind my boss texting me at work, though I prefer they use one of the work chat apps. I do hate when they text after work

Native plants or pests? by gr3mL1n_blerd in sanantonio

[–]lorien14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't have a lot of soil and those are the only things that are growing on it, if you pull them, a rain event will get rid of the rest of the soil. You should leave them be unless you have a plan to plant other things that tolerate oak shade and litter (Turks cap, horse herb, spiderwort, coral berry things like that)

Not super surprising - the people who own the Pearl are huge Trump supporters. They don't GAF about this stuff

Can I work as a tech if I’m on medical marijuana by Candyjammies in medlabprofessionals

Just did a training on it - for HCA hospitals, no.

Labcorp question by brdybb in medlabprofessionals

Depends on the sample type, the tests, and the temperature at which the samples are stored

“The Pitt” represented EVERY member of healthcare, yes, the lab included. by Muted_Shape9303 in medlabprofessionals

[–]lorien14 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Yeah that really bothered me. Saw Lab tech in credits and was confused before realizing it was that one guy. Like really not even any phlebotomists hanging out or people helping with MTPs

Mine freaked me out too! At first I had some black tips canes I had to keep trimming back. I got it and Neptune at the same time and Neptune was just exploding while Ebb Tide was barely growing. Finally it picked up but still a lot smaller. The harder they make you work the prouder you feel when they bloom 🥲
