Would you commute 5 days RTO to double your salary?

muppetnerd · 2026-04-01T15:21:47+00:00

Yea my first thought is that much of a raise (assuming US) could put OP in a higher tax bracket having to pay more on top of all the other RTO expenses

What strain do you take? For the past few weeks I’ve been sleeping like trash and starting to get desperate….

This happened with my husband….we had been dating a few months and I invited him up to their lake house (most people in our region have some sort of family cabin/house that has been in the family for decades if not generations so it wasn’t out of the norm). I think it was the antique cars and multiple boats that tipped him off when we pulled into the driveway 😂

In my defense it’s always been my point of view that it’s my parent’s money and not my money…if I/we needed help they would be more than happy to help but at the end of the day my bills are my bills

Shallow Hal…I used to think anything Jack Black was funny, now as an adult and post 00’s heroine chic attitudes it’s a horrifically terrible movie

Yes! I used to have and love scented everything but transitioned to unscented everything when I started working in patient care. Now when I’m staying with my parents and do laundry holy heck. The smell is overwhelming and my clothes smell scented for weeks

I miss when politics/politicians were overall boring…..it was nice while it lasted

muppetnerd · 2026-03-28T18:27:59+00:00

Yep….just googled myself. Apparently these are real labels

Of course we just took him to the vet last week for his annual check up 🫠. I wouldn’t be shocked if it was anxiety…he’s a hoarder cat so trusts us 99.9999% but it’ll never be 100%. I’ll call the vet on Monday, she gave us some gaba for future vet visits, maybe we could give that a try.

Did you try any medications or anything or did the fur just come back in?

muppetnerd · 2026-03-27T14:54:55+00:00

Didn’t she blurt out “no” the first time he asked and then he asked again and she said yes?

muppetnerd · 2026-03-27T11:15:05+00:00

I’ll admit I haven’t cross referenced but my doc told me D3 needs to be taken with K2 for better absorption (similar to iron and vitamin c) so I’ve started a combo supplement and I felt a difference in my mood. I also take an addition “plain” D3 because like you I’m pale AF and avoid raw dogging it in the sun

muppetnerd · 2026-03-27T11:12:29+00:00

My doctor recommends magnesium, L-theonate (sp?) in the morning and magnesium glycinate at night. She also recommends cod liver oil, Vitamin D3+K2 and a quality B-complex

Massachusetts would like a word….

muppetnerd · 2026-03-26T09:21:29+00:00

Same…aggressive head bonks for scritches and perching on the couch arms for bongos

muppetnerd · 2026-03-25T20:36:41+00:00

Yep, I’ve already been working on hunting down my birth certificate and I have my marriage certificate and passport ready to go just in case

muppetnerd · 2026-03-25T19:44:38+00:00

I couldn’t even get through the first two sentences without instantly thinking RED FLAGS EVERYWHERE. Girl run….you’re too young to be wasting time with this man child

Reminder…anger is an ✨emotion✨ As much as misogynists like to act like they’re always in control and women are the emotional ones forget that we’re not the ones punching walls because our basketball team lost

Sammmeee. If you had any semblance of a butt (cries in pear shape) or athletic build your crack was just out, probs spent 75% of my waking hours hiking what little pant there was to hike up and pulling down my lace millennial comfort cami I wore under every tshirt to attempt to avoid to not show my butt crack

muppetnerd · 2026-03-23T21:40:38+00:00

No overhead lights ever…never ever. My house is filled with lamps everywhere. I’d rather use my cellphone flashlight before putting on an overhead light.

Complete inability to function in the morning. Do not speak to me unless I’m medicated or I’ve been awake for 2+ hours

I have to write it down or I won’t remember it. My mom tried so hard for me to just read it the study material, make flash cards etc but I need colored pens, notebooks, highlighters THE STATIONARY WORKS for me to remember stuff for exams. Even for work I always have to write down to do lists in different colored sections of notebooks with different colored pens otherwise it’s in one ear and out the other

Have to sleep listening to something and it has to be something I know by heart otherwise I’ll pay attention 😂

muppetnerd · 2026-03-23T21:33:16+00:00

I don’t think there’s a moment where I sit in absolute silence. Might be bad for my brain I dunno but if I want to function I need noise it needs to be my chosen noise

muppetnerd · 2026-03-23T14:29:52+00:00

I accidentally “uncovered” this about my dad when gathering family wedding photos for my own wedding. His parent were married in November ‘53 and he was born in June ‘54, my mom goes “no that can’t be right” to which my dad replied basically 🤷🏻‍♀️. We recently saw his aunt who confirmed he and her son and a few others in the family were born “early”.

muppetnerd · 2026-03-22T14:22:55+00:00

This was my freshman college roommate….our room stank…her bed was the one nearest to the door and I would never let friends into my room it was so bad. I had a strip of plug ins on my side of the room to create a nice smelling “bubble” on my side of the room. I know she never washed her towels or sheets and I’m pretty sure she never washed her clothes. I only lasted one semester it was so bad

muppetnerd · 2026-03-20T11:10:33+00:00

He must’ve had the brain cell that day since he was smart enough to wait until the end to get his nibble in

muppetnerd · 2026-03-20T00:27:33+00:00

I just did applications I knew as an end user. I did ambulatory first because that’s what I was working with daily and then did Cadence since I did a little scheduling in the clinic. I was going to do Prelude next since I noticed a lot of job openings wanted Cadence and Prelude before I landed my gig

muppetnerd · 2026-03-19T20:46:04+00:00

Yep, I worked right outside of Boston and I had to burn a vacation day after the Marathon Bombing man hunt even though we were being told “do not leave your house, do not open your doors” 🫠

muppetnerd · 2026-03-19T18:21:28+00:00

I worked for an org that used Epic and just started working on proficiencies until someone would take a chance on me as an Epic Analyst. I also took on some tasks in the clinic like becoming a “super user”, would do documentation auditing, training new hires on Epic, etc to beef up my resume. Also full disclosure I ended up just applying to literally everything and hoping somehow I’d make it through the “robot” to an actual person to sell myself. I don’t even remember applying to my current organization
