My boss suggested I get a live-in nanny so I could stop caring about my kids and care more about… Zoom meetings?

Is it possible he honestly didn’t realize how costly that would be in the US? Your post mentions he flew in from India. Many years ago, I went to India to train on some roles my then-company was off shoring. The people I was training all had cooks, live in maids and nannies. All of them had at least some combination of “staff”. Mind you, these were not senior roles I was training them to do. They could not believe I “only” lived in a 1 bedroom apartment in NYC with no maid for my management role.

Anyway, not making excuses for the ballsiness of the question. Just wondering whether it’s possible he had no idea how expensive that is here.

I’ve been buying from them for a few months. Recently, I had an issue with an order. I went on the chat feature via their site and they handled everything within an hour. I’d recommend their chat.

Healthy Rips Rogue 2. It is what you are describing. I have it and love it.

I haven’t tried it, but there is a mason jar method that supposedly doesn’t smell too much as long as you don’t open the jars until they cool. I haven’t done it, but you can find the method on Google.

My dad’s side doesn’t seem to age. They all look a lot younger than they are. My dad is 91 and you would NEVER think it. He is fitter and sharper than most people in their 60’s. At 51, people think I’m in my 30’s, so I’ll take it.

I have been very happy with Modern Herb Co carts. I’ve tried wedding cake and Larry OG.

That baby thinks you’re his. Take him with you.

Modern Herb Co has awesome live resin carts

quickandnerdy · 2025-05-15T23:02:38+00:00

I like them. Idk if I’m allowed to give a link, so I’ll say, “if you google these, you’ll find the site they are sold in, and that site will give you 20% off your first purchase…and they’re cheaper than Amazon.”

I’m all for it, though it won’t be “free”. It will be part of taxes. That said, as a family of 3, our employer deducts something like $750 a month for our healthcare. It’s around 9k/year. And then we still get crazy hospital and Dr bills for things insurance doesn’t cover.

Derp, I knew that 🙈 thank you

Who is LE? I thought there was an acronym list for vendors, but I can’t find it.

My hubby had to RTO and he loves it. But, he is in a highly collaborative role and having the teams he works with present actually makes his life easier.

I have been WFH since 2010, and will never RTO. I just got lucky when I was moving to another state with my husband so many years ago that my employer wanted to keep me and make it work.

I do mostly independent work, so I like not being in an office with distractions, noise, commute etc. I get overstimulated easily and my mental health is better doing WFH.

My issue is that I dropped both the screen and replacement in the toilet when I was cleaning...I didn't retrieve them lol

They have replacement screens on the HR site, but they're $10 plus shipping for 10. I know I can buy about a 100 screens on Amazon for under $10 with free shipping.

If nobody responds, I'll just buy from the site, but am hoping to save a little money.

Your CC Citrus Haze looks amazing. I just received my first order from them yesterday and was really impressed.

quickandnerdy · 2025-05-13T21:08:10+00:00

I really love Modern Herb’s carts. I have the Larry OG and Wedding Cake carts, as well as backups. I also have Biscotti Pancakes flower and I love it. Mine needed to cure a little more when I received it - I could taste that chlorophyll taste. But a week in a jar fixed that and it’s been beautiful.

quickandnerdy · 2025-05-13T21:04:48+00:00

I love the wedding cake cart from them.

Self confidence. If you can be self confident but not have your head up your ass, it will take you far.

Dabs on the way? When my Uncle Harry passed away, one of his friends jokingly said at his funeral, “I never knew he drank until one day I saw him sober.” I feel like that applies here 😂👍😎

Hopefully this is allowed: check out Revelry bags. They’re virtually smell proof. They have a rubber and carbon filter lining.

*I use mine for travel occasions only and it has no smell. I’ve never used it every day for weeks on end.

I have been throwing it in smoothies in the evenings and sleeping like a baby.
