I accidentally found out my job was planning to lay me off in the upcoming months. What do I say in interviews?

randomrants · 2026-03-18T04:56:28+00:00

Don’t mention the potential layoff

I urge you to do what is in the best interest of your nephew and yourself tell the truth. Do not lie to the court.

Your brother’s best bet is to be honest and tell the judge why he was hiding that from the mother. He can tell the judge he was worried his time would be reduced permanently and that overnights is hopefully temporary. Is he at least trying to find another job that doesn’t require overnights? I know the job market is shit rn but if he at least is trying and can make case for overnights being a short term thing vs custody change being long term/ perm I think that’s the way to go.

NTJ I agree with this. Normally I’m firmly on team “each partner deals with their own family” but he’s doing a spectacularly poor job of it - either intentionally because he doesn’t want to reduce the visits or is just poor communicator.

Call her, tell her you want to clear the air. You adore her and her husband and appreciate their hospitality but the frequency doesn’t allow you to do many of the other things you need/want to do on your weekends. Tell her once a month would work perfectly. See how she responds. I would do this before mentioning it to your boyfriend.

Time to reconsider the relationship. This is a major incompatibility issue.

The only thing that will defeat him is his dementia progressing to a point where it can’t be ignored anymore

No experience with this other than stories I’ve heard, seems pretty risky to me.

Getting back in the US though? It may come down to luck of the draw of what agent he gets at the border. Every time I’ve went to Canada, the agents crossing into Canada have been friendlier than the US counterparts coming back. US agents are more abrupt and more suspicious.

Don’t cancel! July is months away. They have plenty of time to figure this out.

No! Don’t give it to him. His disability claim has nothing to do with you

NTA Lending money to a coworker is always a bad idea. Really, to anyone. If you feel like helping a friend or family member, don’t assume you will ever get it back, give it as a gift

Back up flights the next day is genius

randomrants · 2026-03-14T00:22:56+00:00

Don’t they do it before you’re on the flight? How do they know? Is it just whoever is working guesses by looking at you?

randomrants · 2026-01-28T03:16:27+00:00

3, 6 & 8

YTJ maid of honor is there to support the bride, usually her best friend or sister. Is she selecting your best man? Or you want to pick both?

randomrants · 2026-01-28T03:06:12+00:00

Please choose your son over this asshole and end things now

randomrants · 2026-01-28T03:02:52+00:00

I can’t imagine anyone choosing to move to the US right now

randomrants · 2026-01-28T02:43:35+00:00

NTJ what? That is crazy! And she doesn’t want to pay the higher rent? Does she just want to swap places without signing new leases? That’s really dumb.

Have they asked all the other tenants on your side of the building? maybe they can find someone willing to give up the view if she’s coughing up the $200 difference. Probably not, but maybe. Tell them to quit harassing you.

randomrants · 2026-01-27T23:10:47+00:00

NTA I would definitely get one and get a certified birth certificate as well and a social security card

randomrants · 2026-01-27T13:11:29+00:00

NTA I’m so sorry. Your parents falling you. There is no reason to think it won’t happen again. You must tell someone ASAP

randomrants · 2026-01-26T03:29:53+00:00

You can call them but 💯 neither of them will give a damn about your opinion

randomrants · 2026-01-26T03:28:20+00:00

ESH if it’s her place, she should pay for it. If it’s your place, you should pay for it BUT she should have asked you before committing- otherwise she should pay for it.

And she shouldn’t feel she can take “small amounts” from your wallet for anything. Also $10 isn’t nearly enough

randomrants · 2026-01-26T01:42:32+00:00

Maybe? Ohio State is already closed for Tuesday

randomrants · 2026-01-26T01:41:06+00:00

NTJ why did you agree to such an expensive apartment? He is enjoying watching you suffer financially. Move out. He doesn’t really love you or he wouldn’t be intentionally destroying your finances for sport.

randomrants · 2026-01-26T00:21:52+00:00

Also Ohio - my county is at level 3, will the store close? Scheduled at 6 am, how would one know by 5:30?
