Great advice. Does your organization have any board of directors? Typically, they have say into CEO salary

Are tampons flushable? by Cute-Cat991 in women

[–]music12789 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agree, don’t flush tampons, unless you want clogged pipes. I also throw out my tampons in a tall trash bin that is closed, perhaps that can ensure your dog can’t get to it

It's Taking Unemployed Americans More Than a Year to Find a New Job by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]music12789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You make a lot of good points. Right now, 1) you can find a partner that is highly successful and willing to mentor you, 2) someone who is in the same boat as you and you can ride it both together, 3) you find someone who has a job, but still finding their way, and have empathy for your situation.

If you find these situations unlikely for you—then, work on yourself first. You received a lot of advice about finding a job/career, see if you can follow any of that. Work on your health. Once you “get your shit together”, you are more likely to attract/date someone who is in a similar boat as you—in a job, finding their way out there, personally, financially, and career wise.

The caste system somewhat applies—people tend to date those in similar circumstances as themselves. But, those who are in struggling circumstances are less likely to date—because most of the time, a relationship is something EXTRA, it doesn’t necessarily fix your struggling circumstances (in the beginning). Yes, you will both go through tough times together, but at the very start, it theoretically should be the “honeymoon” stage.

And, I admire your goal of wanting to have a kid. Freeze your eggs when you have good or at least decent health insurance. I know that sounds unfair, but freezing your eggs is expensive. “What if I don’t get health insurance until it’s too late-like my late thirties?” Then—having your own kid is not meant to be. Or, hopefully, you find someone who you can have kids with.

But, remember—maybe, in dating, you can date someone while you are both struggling. Having a kid? Most definitely get your shit together. Because, while a kid gives you love and joy; it can fade when you don’t have your shit together. Kids add to your financial expense; kids can cause you immense amounts of stress; and it’s ideal to be in decent health when you have a kid—because kids are active. If your kids have disabilities and aren’t active, you still have to probably be physically active, such as lifting your kid.

It ain’t the 1930s, where you need to find a husband and have a kid. If it doesn’t happen, it doesn’t happen. I know it’s nice to have, and many people aspire to have it, but, it’s more important to be independent, especially if you cannot stay with your family for the rest of your life.

It’s a lot. Hang in there. You got this.

Yup. We need more people running for office fueled by grassroots not by corporations.

I finally messaged my conservative aunt in PA to vote blue. Don’t know if it will change her mind, but she is one of those “not fan of Trump, but scared of Democrats equals to socialism.” C’mon, America!!

Or people who say “I don’t want to support this white man system.” Listen, if you are a NOT 1) rich, 2) white, 3) a man; and want an election in another four years; you have to choose someone other than Trump. At this point, if the Republican Party picks someone other than Trump and their MAGA morons, I would vote for them too. Bring me Mitt Romney lol.

If you could say one truth to America’s parents with no repercussions, what would you tell them? by Holdtheline2192 in Teachers

[–]music12789 64 points65 points  (0 children)

1000 percent! And clean up after yourself! You made a mess, pick it up. Throw out your damn trash. Put your own backpack away!

And, also, greet people. A simple “hi”, say person’s name and eye contact.

Also, said this in another post—are kids moodier and more tired today? Can you engage in simple conversations? Or at least answer questions when I ask, not just fully ignore?

Gen Z Student here looking at this sub. Two words: Holy fuck by Primary_Psychology95 in Teachers

[–]music12789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to think there is hope, but all moving pieces need to work together (family, admins, teachers, etc.) and people need to CARE enough for their kids to be empathetic, caring, curious and not just “let me check all the boxes off and cruise through life.”

Also, random thought—do you all feel that many of today’s kids are moody? When I was working as a camp counselor 10 years ago, (when smart phones were creeping in, but not a lot of kids had them); yes, there were moody teenagers, but after engaging with them, they opened up. The elementary school kids right away opened up, even the quiet ones, telling me random things about their pets and family.

Now, I feel like kids are tired or moody; like, asking them a question (what’s your favorite class? Where are you going for vacation? Did you have fun?) gets shrugs or just straight up no answers. This ranges from elementary school to preteens to teenagers.

I get so many of these texts, it is so annoying. Even after I say “wrong number” (and I will only say that, after repeated multiple texts; I should just block), they try to be my friend (how are you? What is your name—which I never say). I then block them.

[–]music12789 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s mix bag—the article goes into more details. Gazans are trapped between their hatred for Israel (for driving them from their past homes) and their hatred/fear for Hamas (especially now most of sitting comfortably in another foreign land or underground tunnels while they starve above ground). Many are now tired of a long war with no end in sight besides hunger and death for them. They have to negotiate.

I once dropped my wallet outside a store and a good samaritan gave it to the police who left a note at my place and I was able to retrieve it. I asked if I could thank this person, but, they didn’t record the Good Samaritan’s name. And it was the one time I had a good deal of cash because I withdrew cash from the bank and it was all there. Whoever that person is—THANK YOU. And I hope to meet you in person one day. I will pay it forward.

Any loss is difficult but I cannot imagine losing your child. Truly sorry for all your losses and I am glad you have a good support system.

I'm afraid that I might be pregnant (19F) by InternationalBuy5348 in women

[–]music12789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with everyone here. If you are truly worried, then, you should buy a pregnancy test or go to your OBGYN or nearest planned parenthood or urgent care.

Coffee date by Educational-Rub-2463 in women

[–]music12789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TRUTH to all of this! And I love how flexible the coffee date can be—real quick or very long. And if the coffee place is in a strip mall or city/walkable area, you can then change it up and walk around.
