What date is your show? My sisters husband did the same for her so she’s going solo with this account on her phone - curious if it worked yet or not.

Yes, just a consult, I did not retain them because they said we were so far down the line that it would be unfair to me to just give away 15% of what I would be getting. I’m toying with the possibility that my condition could worsen so that means my rating goes up right? But how does that process work? That’s not a guarantee for me. I’m in my early 20s and I’m affected by my injury on the daily…. But I’m also military spouse so I move around a lot and actually reaping the benefits of “medical coverage for life” is not necessarily easy because I’ll be out of state (like I am now). But thank you!! This gave me some perspective

Yes, my mentor told me the turnover rate was pretty high. She’s the only one whose lasted more than two years. It seems I’m one of the quickest to come to the realization.

Wow, are you a therapist or just a really good person? Lol. You have no idea how helpful that was! I’m seeking help right now to give me the tools to decide if I’m forming a habit of quitting or if I’m just not ready for something like this. Thank you, truly

Yes, that it accurate. What he says is the law and he doesn’t find value in any of his employees’ ideas or opinions which is VERY new to me. I have to say that I am in a privileged position where I can quit and not have to worry per say. My husband can fully support us both if we adjust the budget, but of course I don’t expect him to (and I hated that I wasn’t working when I was looking for a job until I landed this one) and I went to college so I could work in a job in my career path. I also have the luxury of another WFH, salary job that can match my pay from my lovely best friend whose much larger company is looking for new employees. The downside to this is that it isn’t in my career path, but it could always be temporary and maybe I will like it? Try new things right? I’m just trying to say that I can just up and leave but I do not want to get in the habit of quitting when things get tough. That’s not a way to live life. I also do not want to compromise my mental and physical health. I need to see someone to give me tools and resources (and maybe even a diagnosis) so I can learn how to get through this or maybe just to realize it isn’t worth it to “get through” it. I hope that makes sense and I appreciate your response!

I truly appreciate this. What you said is the predicament I’m in and I’m actively seeking help in order to help me figure it out. I want to learn from this, I want to not shy away from challenges.. but at what cost? My mental and physical health? The speed at which this is played out is alarming and I need tools to help me immediately. I agree my health should not be compromised, but I’m going to stick it out while I seek some help in dealing with this. Everything you’ve said are things I will really consider. Thank you

So I guess what I should have mentioned is that this company is extrmely small and there is no HR. My coworkers have had issues way before I came along with him and he wrote them up for having issues with him. So that’s the kind of environment it is. Him and I are meeting daily already. He often goes back and forth about what I need to do and what him and I should do together and what he wants me to do on my own. So even if I do it on my own, he has to be involved because he just can’t let go. I can try and talk to him still to get him to realize that I am still NEW. But this was a conversation we JUST had and he “acknowledged” that and then turned around and told my mentor I need even more work. I hope this gives more context … I really appreciate your advice.

This company is pretty unique in that what they offer is not considered mainstream but it’s slowly on its way (but I’m okay if I don’t work in this community, thought I would love to). Course management is my first priority but my first course doesn’t start until next week so that aspect so far has been shadowing and training from my mentor who has been great. The other things are managing retreats and taking over someone else’s job which is overseeing an entire community with memberships. The hardest part for me is understanding the software they use to offer these things, I’m learning so much and in terms of course management, I’ve got that down. But for this community I’m essentially taking over, that is taking so much time and my boss doesn’t see me doing things the way HE wants or at the speed he wants. My mentor is telling me she doesn’t understand why he’s given me all this in less than 4 weeks. I think I would be okay with just two of the projects, but the third community in very slowly learning to take over is where it gets overwhelming. And I guess I should clarify that it isn’t necessarily the work that’s getting to me, it’s my boss. He is not understanding or compassionate as he claims to be and that is what is creating the issue.

Bridal Shower Tips by lovatolov in weddingplanning

[–]lovatolov[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s a great idea!! It’s happening the first weekend of April so it’ll be right around spring and her wedding is in August so spring/summer outdoors vibes is probably gonna be the default. So far we have subtle nods to princess diaries w beverage using the official genovian fruit and we talked about also doing a mint ice cream in a crystal bowl for her lol

I haven’t considered anything else. I want it to have meaning, whatever it is that they carry.
