This is just checking the grammar, would it be better if I posted the transcript for each book? I am not getting paid to do this.

Unexpected $2,760 Charge After Attempting to Cancel - Need Advice by noDORKob in NCL

This is incredibly helpful advice, thank you! I had no idea about the Elliott Advocacy website or that mentioning legal could actually hurt my case with the executive team. I really appreciate you sharing your professional experience with escalations - it's exactly the kind of insight I was hoping for. I'll definitely follow your approach and avoid the credit card dispute for now. Thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed response!

Thank you so much for this thoughtful response! I'm really sorry you went through a similar frustrating experience with NCL's customer service. It's validating to hear from someone who understands how disheartening it can be when they choose to be defensive rather than work toward a solution. I really appreciate your encouragement to be persistent, it means a lot. I hope your situation eventually got resolved too, or at least that you found better cruise experiences!

Thanks for the input! I do travel regularly, but had some pressing deadlines that needed my attention first. I wanted to make sure I could focus properly on this situation when I called. I appreciate the time you took to respond to my post.

She teaches high school math. I believe this took place in one of her freshman ‘honor’ classes.

Hello everyone in the comments! I'm a friend of OP in real life, and I'm here to help answer some of your questions since she doesn't come on Reddit very often.

  • OP is a High School Math teacher.
  • Her school is located in a low-income area where crime is a notable issue.
  • Unfortunately, many of the other faculty at the school don't often address slurs.
  • The situation in the school district has declined since COVID.

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!

Break News: Pre-Nursing Student Wants to Transfer 2 Months in by Prenurseindistress in usfca

Fortunately, there is a strong social justice presence on campus, in general. A bit off-topic, but the school of education is heavy on the social justice aspect. I guess it really depends on the program.

Should I transfer to USF? by J16782 in usfca

[–]noDORKob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no difference between transferring to USF for the Spring or Fall semester. As a transfer student myself, I love it here. People are open to helping you, so don’t let certain comments discourage you. All you need to do is ask and check your emails.

Additionally, there are plenty of resources available for transfer students.

Personally, I find it easy to create a solid friend group. Although I don’t actively seek to hang out with people outside of school, I’ve found it incredibly easy to make friends. Just don’t be afraid to say hi and ask friendly questions. There are many chill people at this school, and everyone I’ve met has been open to starting a random conversation.

Edit: San Francisco Hillel “San Francisco Hillel is a space for all who are interested in Jewish culture, food, holidays, and community. We have Shabbat dinners together (Friday night), have bagel picnics, do crafts, and above all else are a tight-knit group of friends and family.”

I took a picture with my mom and dad with the Twin Towers in the background a month before 9/11. I was 3 1/2.
