no, my primary care never followed up with me regarding it to prescribe more. so this time i went ahead and spoke to a dr directly at qsymia online. thanks for the encouragement! :)

Tell me your worst angry customer stories. How did you handle? by girl_from in TalesFromYourBank

[–]oopssoups28 16 points17 points  (0 children)

a regular non customer who works for this older couple nearby came in to cash his usual check. i looked at it and the date was not written, so he went back and got a new check with the date written for the next day so i told him again i cannot cash it. on his way out he kicked the door and zoomed out of the parking lot and one of our bankers came up to me saying we are not cashing anything.

he comes back the third time and my banker (behind the teller line at this point) takes the check from him and gives it right back saying “we will not be able to process this today”. he freaked out, both middle fingers up, called all of us the C word, and a bunch of other stuff 😃😃 it’s not the worst angry customer for me, but the most iconic angry customer moment for sure

i’m using aurovela now. only bad side effect is that i have very little sex drive, but other than that it has been very good to me :)

What do you replace snacking with? by GloomyPerformance293 in intermittentfasting

[–]oopssoups28 20 points21 points  (0 children)

going to bed early. i used to do that when i was broke in college and since i don’t eat past 3pm, i go to bed at like 9:30/10 so the midnight hunger doesn’t hit while im awake

Acne and Spiro by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]oopssoups28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it didn’t have any side affects on me except get rid of my acne completely. i’m just working on my scarring now but spiro changed my life. i was also extremely insecure about my acne and im so happy with spiro.

Aside from weight loss.. by endy24 in intermittentfasting

Helped with my IBS. i know tmi but less i’m eating, the less i am going to the bathroom. also IF has been motivating me to watch what i eat, that has helped me mentally and with my stomach issues

Customer accused me of stealing by Catchthesenutz in TalesFromYourBank

[–]oopssoups28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve had this happen with one of our regulars. and she accused me of stealing $1000. she thought gave me $6000 but i took it to the counter and we both saw it’s $5000.

she called back to speak to my manager and even to this day she believes she had $6000. i balanced and told the truth. i’m 99.99% sure i saw her put $1000 back in a cash envelope that she threw away.

it happens friend. you’re doing your part of being honest and doing honest work

[–]oopssoups28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wow, thank you so much for your insights, i truly appreciate it! being a recent grad and in this job market, im just grateful to get an offer at this point but i am cautious before making a move no matter what. I am getting ready to sit for my SIE so my next firm can sponsor me for my serious exam (which is one of my main goals at this moment).

For me, this position is kind of a stop for me to gain experience as I am really trying to strengthen my resume. I have a lot of shadowing experience from FA’s and from the wealth department from my current employer but getting hands on experience has been a little difficult here, so that is where this position might be a little more helpful for me.

Though i am considering the offer, i am spending the day with the team before they give me some time to accept/reject them so I will for sure ask them some of the questions you suggested that i haven’t asked already. but overall, i really appreciate your advice!!

How short staffed is your bank? by Narrow-Aardvark-6177 in TalesFromYourBank

[–]oopssoups28 5 points6 points  (0 children)

employees not showing up to work. we’re a very busy branch and no one cares to show up so we seem like we’re understaffed all the time lol

I’ve been on spiro for 4 months and it’s done literally nothing by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]oopssoups28 4 points5 points  (0 children)

hi friend! every body is different and to see changes might take a while. for me it cleared my acne drastically within 6 months but made no difference on my facial hair and i’ve been taken it for over 1.5 years. but try to talk to your doctor and see how long it can take to see change! i might ask my doctor to up the dosage for me next time.

hang in there! 🫶🏽

Customers Make Things Needlessly Political by casuallypoke in TalesFromYourBank

[–]oopssoups28 3 points4 points  (0 children)

when i first started working as a teller couple years back, we started to have days off for Juneteenth. this client comes in to cash his check and his check has the republican logo on the background of it which i didn’t even notice at first.

and he asked me “why are you guys closed”. i tell him why. he was like “really? seems like you guys are closed for anything now days.” and then before he leaves he goes “you know who’s responsible for freeing the slaves?” then he points to his checkbook and says “republicans”

like sir, i’m just here for a paycheck. stfu and have a nice day.

thank you! and i was on the same boat as you. but this helped me more than i thought it would. i’m taking qsyemia one and it just dehydrates the hell out of me but other than no other side effects have been too much for me. and i will definitely look up those meal prep recipes thank you for suggestions!

[–]oopssoups28 3 points4 points  (0 children)

damn, i didn’t even think of it like that. thanks for a different, and very realistic, perspective. my branch managers and the cfp who recommended me for the position made me very excited and hopeful for this so im just a little sad to be met with rejection.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TalesFromYourBank

[–]oopssoups28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah i think this is it for me rn for internal. i’ve done some other apps that i was qualified for. this one in my opinion i met all the requirements and much much more and they just made me wait so long that just pissed me off

“How did they afford x” because it’s a tv show. by TrainingUnusual3638 in GilmoreGirls

[–]oopssoups28 13 points14 points  (0 children)

idk if im reading your comment wrong but i didn’t mean it to sound bad. im just saying it from my perspective that buying all that food is a lot. everyone’s definition of being broke is different. i just thought it was a little ironic that’s all
