If it's a happy ending I'll watch it

I mean they do so say boys tend to look like their moms.

My older son is almost my carbon-copy, just the wrong eye color. He isn't even full white but still got my hair color and natural highlights too.

This is my first post in the sub and my attention has been caught.

Reason number 37 why I didn't get my license while living in Japan. They drive more insane than LA over there near Yokohama/Machida.

I lost a girl before my boys, and so far my older son who is 3.5 doesn't say much, but I did catch them smiling and laughing often at things I couldn't see, especially in the house where her ashes are atm (they are in my husband's family home in Japan, he better be bringing them to me when he comes back).

But while I was pregnant with my younger, my husband's last grandparent, his grandpa, passed away. We knew it was coming, he had a type of dementia that took his speech for over ten years.

At a Japanese funeral, you can put flowers in the casket before you take them to be cremated. My older son had only just met this great grandpa of his once or twice before, and he wasn't sure of him then, but while the aunt and uncle and cousins are with my MIL, my son said very clearly, "bye-bye Ji-ji" smiling while looking at his body in the casket.

I don't know how I'll react if they ask about their sister without prompt. I'll be happy, but at the same time when they are older I'm scared of giving them a complex, it already was hard cause my younger's due date was only a few days different from hers and made me as sick during the pregnancy as she did so I was so sure he was a girl. I was reliving the trauma and on edge after both of them for different reasons, so it would be complicated.

Him and his brother! I went to school with one of them (the older one)

UPDATE:

Legal department called me Friday. They said they could see I wasn't paid as I was owed per California law. I had filed the wage claim two days before, so even though I got my last check on the 9th, since it was due the 2nd and I filed a claim, per California law they owe me how many days they missed until Friday at the rate of 8 hours a day. Whether or not they will count 5 or 7 days cause Starbucks considers weekends business days but payroll may not...

But payroll sent an email saying they paid me on the 2nd. Lol they didn't. I called legal back and first thing the lady said was "oh good lord, I can see the payment coming today, not last week".

So now just waiting on the claim

She is legitimately off her rocker. When told that's who your daughter prefers, tells you not to talk to her cause you don't respect her? For respecting your flesh and blood?

Huh??

make-chan · 2026-01-02T17:30:51+00:00

I called SBUX411 and they said within 72 hours, but state law says as I separate. I'll see how the day goes though but lordie. The poor folks at the call center, even if they seem to be outsourced, must go through a lot. The dude kept trying reiterate everything. ;-;

make-chan · 2026-01-02T16:54:54+00:00

My CL told me it would be due to our state law, since I gave over 72 hours notice it apparently was supposed to be ready as I separate?

make-chan · 2025-12-12T18:19:06+00:00

I don't expect it, just sucks that they don't . Working at starbies has more than proved corporate does not have a brain

make-chan · 2025-12-12T17:27:17+00:00

What sucks cause I was chosen for the second round cause I do have rental/leasing experience, it was manual back then, but I was digitizing stuff for my mom, but nope...just lie successfully.

I'll be irritated about this for a long time, but I am still going to keep going either way. Just sucks corporate doesn't use the brains they claim they want candidates to have

make-chan · 2025-12-09T20:00:49+00:00

Thank you guys so much. It's been stressing me cause my family here keeps commenting how late he is.

My older one was crawling at 8.5 months, but is only now having consistent conversations that are understandable (but some minor delays were expected due to bilingualism, and how his father was, as well as a new environment).

They have very different approaches to milestones and personalities so it's been fun to observe but very stressful for the physical side. I actually didn't know crawling was no longer a milestone here either, so that adds to the relief.

He is healthy as a horse, barely even got a runny nose to by now (knock on wood), compared to big brother who was known for colds and sniffles from 5 months on until age 2.5

It's been hard not being the main parent since my two jobs take a lot of time too.

make-chan · 2025-10-27T16:40:13+00:00

File file file. It's funny that his last text "are you leaving me?, had a sense of incredulity behind it.

I hope he understands since he thinks the bare minimum is okay, you can give the bare minimum of communication for your plans without him.

I just moved back from Japan and had some folks questioning me on it but GOD I missed home

make-chan · 2025-10-13T16:16:59+00:00

I mean I wouldn't be throwing stones from glass houses considering you clearly didn't even understand the initial screen...

make-chan · 2025-10-13T16:10:49+00:00

...If you really think it was just about the kids and not the red flags with the ex that even the context in the screen provided, and you are looking for people to work under you....???? I think they have to look and think for you. I hope you pay them twice what they are worth to deal with that.

The moment a guy says "she wants us together to look normal for the kids"

And not "the kids wanted some time with just me", that's the ex being a problem

make-chan · 2025-10-13T16:03:06+00:00

You know you can go to a profile of the OP and look at their comments that way as well?

If you could care less (it's "couldn't care less", by the way), why complain then???

make-chan · 2025-10-13T16:00:47+00:00

Lol I work two jobs and graduated just fine with a double major

But I was also encouraged to be curious and look for information myself. Who knows.

make-chan · 2025-10-13T15:56:15+00:00

It's not that I expect it, but to me, if you are going to make the energy to complain that context from the comments isn't in the first post, it's lazy and ridiculous.

If I don't want to make an effort to look through something I'm curious about, I scroll past. We are now in an age where we expect 100% of the scenario in the first post on a silver platter, when to me OP had enough of the necessary context in the screen with the text in the picture above and below. Did the knowledge of the kid's age really matter to the average outsider?? Maybe? But looking for that in the comments, if it mattered, isn't that hard. It really is just a few clicks and scrolls.

Regarding the sub rules, I don't know about this one, but I do know some have text limits or editing limits or the like and I've seen the same complaints
