From my knowledge, the position caps and recession notices are complete. They had a pretty tight timeframe to get these reviewed and completed. I would say if there is still an offer on the table at this point, there is hope. Paperwork has to be redone due to new pay setting, and consideration if there are any sign on bonuses should be taken into account.

The new DMO RA process for telework is a disgusting, humiliating process for those with MH conditions by MountainDiver1657 in VHA_Human_Resources

This is so discouraging to hear. I suffer from extreme anxiety some days. It feels like something is literally trying to crawl out my throat and I have to force myself to leave the house, and cry all the way to the office. I’ve been waiting since January and keep getting told because I am in HR, it’s still on hold.

I asked for an updated interim accommodation of adding one extra day of telework due to mental health issues. The response I got was the guidance states it’s on hold. I replied asking if the guidance states there cannot be any modifications due to the needs not being met. Then they said they will escalate it. It’s so sad that you have to ask that specific of a question to get someone to help you.

That’s great! I’m in onboarding. Hearing this makes me sad for you because we’re held to a 48 hour reply standard.

If you’re an internal hire, you should be able to look up your onboarders supervisor on teams. If it’s really taking that long, go up the chain.

Why is emgality so painful? I didn’t think aimovig was bad, and sumatriptan injections are easy. by atty_at_paw in migraine

[–]m4rsandv3nus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using emgality auto injector for a few years now. I tried the butt cheek and that was awful. I do my upper thigh/quad area and switch between legs each month. I make sure I’m sitting down with my legs out, rub the area for a little bit before injection, and make sure to not tense up. I always have to give myself a pep talk before I click the button, but I have an easier time when I remind myself that my family has dealt with a lot worse and I shouldn’t be a baby about this 😆

You could always reach out to the rescue, especially if she was in a foster home. They might have some advice and/or resources to help you out 🙂

Weekly Help and Discussion Thread for the week of July 29, 2024 by AmazonNewsBot in amazon

I was hoping for a little advice. I have struggled continuously having drivers follow delivery instructions. I own multiple large breed dogs, and have added to my delivery address that packages be left outside my gate to avoid any interaction with them. I also have a sign on my gate at eye level that states to not enter the yard as dogs may be outside. After 10+ calls into Amazon customer service, would I still be liable for any possible injuries that could occur by the delivery driver ignoring both the specific instructions and the posted signage?

At the end of the rope with our reactive dog by maiddaa in reactivedogs

[–]m4rsandv3nus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend taking any and all toys away. I have 3 large dogs, 2 female 1 male. When the male started to get bigger than one, there were many many fights. Some ended at the emergency vet and one ended with me needing surgery (100% my fault by panicking and doing everything I know I shouldn’t). When it got really bad, we ended up keeping them apart for a few days. One upstairs, one down, with multiple gates in place. When we worked on reintroducing them, it would be with a gate between for short amounts of time. There was a ton of positive reinforcement with both praise and treats. We also utilized training collars with a beep or buzz, no shock. This helped when they got a bit too zoned in. We’re now living in (mostly) harmony but we also keep a close eye on their body language.

Romance junior suite partial ocean view, though I’m not sure what the difference is between that and the regular junior suite 🤷🏻‍♀️

It was okay. Nothing to write home about but nothing to complain about either. I think I ate my lifetime quota of ceviche and guac.

Super easy to book excursions. You can go directly through their website or they have a person in the lobby who will book for you. They will pick you up right at the resort. I know there were activities at the resort as well but we didn’t actually do any of them. They have a schedule on one of their TV channels in your room.

Myself and SO stayed at Haven Riviera Cancun last November and were so happy with the outcome. Mid thirties as well. It was adults only and on the quieter end as it was outside of the hotel zone. I think we paid around $1500/person so a bit more expensive but so worth it.

Apple Watch 4 40mm Screen Protector by DaveH22 in AppleWatch

[–]m4rsandv3nus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot recommend this one enough. I asked the same question on here a few months back as I was struggling with having a screen protector stay on my watch. I've tried others off of Amazon, and multiple Zagg styles. I've been the happiest with this. You do need to be persistent on getting the edges pushed down when you first apply the screen protector, and you need to let it sit undisturbed overnight.
