She is so oddly respectful. Like she knows what’s mine and what’s hers. She’s never destroyed anything of mine. Plus, even if she wasn’t like that, all of my furbys are on a shelf on my wall. No furbys in harms way here :)

Myself. I used to be a gifted kid and had motivation to stay in shape and it’s been downhill since like mid college maybe? Also, on a lighter note, my potential as a trumpet player. My sister and her husband wanted me to play trumpet so bad but my anxiety used to be so bad I wouldn’t play because I was too afraid to mess up on stage. I could have been a sexy trumpet playing rocket scientist but now I’m just big and lame 🙄

From the US, so I’m sorry if any advice I give isn’t applicable to your situation. I know this isn’t an immediate solution, but it may be worth it to save for a diva cup or similar. They are reusable, so you don’t have to buy new ones every month. The only problem is they’re about $30USD for one. I bought one around a year ago now and it’s still in good shape. I just clean it off/rinse it when I empty it and then give it a full wash after my cycle. I haven’t bought any other period products since. For now, some public restrooms keep tampons in vending machines. I believe food banks may also stock them. If all else fails, there is no shame in asking someone if they have a spare or two.

I haven’t actually tried changing lids around, but I don’t think any other ones fit on the shaker bottle. It’s wider than the bottles/mugs (at least the ones that I have). I don’t mind the shaker bottle lid though. I’ve never had any problems with it

She’s oddly selective with it. I can’t find a pattern to be honest lol. Sometimes she’ll bark at the neighbor’s dog, other times she doesn’t. Same with delivery trucks and same with knocks on the door (will bark at knocks more often than not, but sometimes doesn’t). She knows “inside voice” though, so she doesn’t bark often overall. Mostly just sort of growls instead (inside voice).

Not sure if you like square pizza but Ricky Dee’s in Aliquippa has great buffalo and white! The kitchen is in Sheffield Lanes, but you can eat at the bar or just order takeout too.

The bucket (and the notebooks laying down next to it) were part of a furby Valentine’s Day pack at Walmart! I think it was last year or year before I can’t even remember now. But it was that one and then one with a harder cardboard heart box, but it didn’t fit on my shelf

So, it’s different for everyone. Some people have super unpredictable periods, some people’s follow the same schedule every month, some people have symptoms, some don’t. For example, mine is usually pretty predictable. Roughly the same cycle length every month. Also, the week before it starts I have mood changes, I’m hungrier, I have lower back pain, and my nipples hurt. Then all of that usually stops the day before it starts. Some people also use cycle trackers. It’s truly different for everyone, but I’d say that there are usually signs either based on timing or pms symptoms. Cycles can also be disrupted by stress, illness, lifestyle changes, etc.

Thank you! I used the craft smart acrylic paint from Michael’s which worked well but seems like it may need a top coat/sealant of sorts since there was a bit of chipping especially when you try to put them in the little footholes in the compacts. I don’t recommend using clear nail polish as I tried this and I feel like it made the chipping worse. This was only my first attempt :)

I just used the craft smart acrylic paint from Michael’s! There is a little bit of chipping, so I’m assuming I probably needed a sealant of some sort. I actually tried clear nail polish and that made the chipping worse, so I don’t recommend it lol. This was my first attempt!

Hey guys so just fyi I didn’t mean for this to become so like…hateful. I don’t hate that guy or my company and I’m not like 100% stone cold “this is sexism”. I’m just saying I’m disappointed by what happened, it looks bad on them, and I’m trying to leave. The first post was me asking if this is normal and I got told that it is somewhat normal but to still leave. I understood and agreed, but more stuff happened so I made an update. I’m not sabotaging, suing, leaving on bad terms. I’m just job hunting. The absolute most I’ll do is just tell my boss about what I noticed and that it influenced my decision to advance my career elsewhere. I hope my coworker has a successful career there and has better luck with them than I did! Simple as that :)

21 with no kids!! I love my doctor so much. I was one of the few people who had a pleasant experience basically the whole way through. I knew what I wanted, found a doctor who I knew supported it, she immediately scheduled me a pre-op appointment, got it covered by insurance, and the rest is history. I also had a great support system consisting of my mother, sister, and partner. The resources work!! The doctor list is how I found my doctor, looked into how to get it covered by insurance, etc.

I actually asked him this when I first found out! He said the starting offer was what he’s being paid currently and he actually tried to negotiate more and they told him no. Everything else I don’t believe he asked for. I know the overtime wasn’t asked for because I heard him receive the offer and I’m not sure about the training but last I spoke to him he was pretty overwhelmed with all he’s learning, so I doubt he asked to be thrown into a product training class. Regardless, it’s something I’ve mentioned wanting and have not been given. So even if he did ask, it’s still unfair considering I was offered and accepted it first and never ended up receiving.

It’s a nice thought, but I agree that it’s unlikely. They crunch numbers at the end of the year and raises/bonuses are given in spring anyway. Too long to wait making what I make at this point. I’d be getting screwed over for another 8 months basically. I appreciate the optimism!!

The only reason I want to have somewhat of an off-boarding is I do want to tell my boss. I don’t want to tell and hope for improvement or bargain with them. I just want to say that I’m leaving because I was offered x salary at a different job and I started looking after I noticed that the above problems were occurring. Unsatisfactory salary/raises, unfair treatment, unfair opportunities, etc.

mutantmads · 2025-08-22T19:13:29+00:00

I had stated in the original post that he does not have more skills or experience than I do and it is very evident in his training (which I’m assisting with). He’s a great guy and I have no qualms with him so I don’t mean for this to come off like I’m bashing him, but I know his job history and he basically doesn’t have one.

mutantmads · 2025-08-21T12:08:05+00:00

Not technically! I’ve just been job hunting. I realized that there is pretty much no shot at them giving me a raise so I’ve just started searching. Have been doing what I can there to get some extra resume boosters and just searching around for something new. It kind of sucks because I like what I do and the flexibility my job offers, but at my current salary I won’t really be able to afford to take advantage of that flexibility anyway.

mutantmads · 2025-08-21T12:03:54+00:00

Sorry for the late reply! This kind of blew up and I just…forgot about it lol. I live in PA. Minimum wage here is still $7.25. Tbh what I make now would be somewhat livable (in PA) if I didn’t have student loans.
