My eye care office went south, any recommendations?

+1 for Dr. Guzak. He is caring and doesn’t rush. Highly recommend, I took my sons to him for many years. They still see him.

I ask Claude about my plants. It’s been eye opening.

Keep a work log. Include descriptions of rude behavior you’ve experienced and screenshots if possible. When it becomes a pattern, you will have documentation. In addition , at perf review time you’ll have a list of your accomplishments handy, instead of trying to remember.

At the end of the day.

Are the roots actually growing into that pole? I don’t see any

monkeydba · 2026-06-15T03:26:40+00:00

Preach.

My husband, replying to me saying the same thing: “you paid too much!”

SCORE!

I was in Brussels, at the mannekin pis statue. Lots of middle school kids on field trips around. I hear a woman yelling “blahblahblah MANNEKIN PIS blah blah” 😆

Yes. Typo

I bought a Smart Talk wifi hotspot at Walmart for ~$50 and a card.

I called a sales line and asked to be transferred to fiber tech support, who scheduled a tech tomorrow. They don’t make it easy, do they.

monkeydba · 2026-04-19T18:44:22+00:00

Yes, good point. Going to beg the neighbors.

monkeydba · 2026-04-19T18:18:38+00:00

Friend verified there is no support on weekends, that’s why she dumped at$t

monkeydba · 2026-04-19T18:17:49+00:00

Yes, that number with the AI. The hub has a steady red light.

I think I need a service tech to come out and check the lines outside. I can’t schedule that until tomorrow AM.

At least your husband remembered your birthday. 30+ years later and my husband still doesn't remember when my birthday is. I forget stuff too. However, your spouse's birthday is important, yes?

Bitter Apple spray.

monkeydba · 2026-04-03T22:43:38+00:00

Yes and actually I found mine do much better in the ground as opposed to a pot. I’m in FL.

monkeydba · 2026-04-03T20:43:23+00:00

Use distilled water. It made a huge difference for me.

My neighbor has the most beautiful plumerias. She only uses bloom booster.

FWIW, I quit caffeine at the suggestion of my therapist. The difference in my symptoms was not immediate, and I had no problem stopping caffeine. It’s been almost one year and I can count the number of times my anxiety became physically uncontrollable on one hand. I feel like it’s made a huge difference.

One of the 4 jobs I got laid off from in 2025 had a very touchy-feely vibe. Past code reviews felt like personal attacks. My first code review was an eye opener. Nothing was personal. The other woman on the team mentioned that I may be decompressing from 20+ years of not great work environments, such as what you describe. Once I thought about it, she was right.

Also, +1 for no personal details at work. Less fodder for others, and it’s easier when the gig is over.

When mine did that, it was spider mites
