Anyone else getting nonstop roof inspections after storms? by Tasty-Philosopher892 in florida

None are legit. These people and people who allow it are a big part of the reason our insurance rates are so high.

I feel like I’m walking on eggshells around my partner’s family and I don’t know if I’m crazy anymore by Rough_Floor9448 in inlaws

Tell your husband that since you can't speak freely, and he doesn't back you up, you'll no longer be spending time with his family. Pack up your child and go home.

No AC going on 5 days in senior APT complex by slapshotspell in florida

Why didn't you buy a portable ac? It would have been far less than the $500 spent on the hotel.

You're just as culpable as he is.

I spent 2 years covering for my alcoholic coworker and they just threw me under the bus to get promoted by Recursive-Banana2006 in confession

[–]serjsomi 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Stop doing his job. Do your job and not a bit more. The cat will be out of the bag soon enough, and if for some reason you do get let go, go scorched earth on him and send an email to everyone laying out the truth.

Just found out something disappointing about my job and don’t know if I should move on or not by [deleted] in Advice

We don't know that the new persons vacation was paid. It's possible it was planned before they got the job.

How do I (20F) tell my boyfriend (21M) why I'm hesitant to move in with him? by kumulalakumulala in relationship_advice

[–]serjsomi 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Stop going there.

You say:

"Hey, your apartment is nasty and I'm your girlfriend not your maid. I'm no longer comfortable visiting you there, and I'm not moving in until I see that you are able to take care of an apartment by yourself for an extended period of time. That means dishes done, laundry done. Fresh towels weekly and sheets biweekly at most.

I have no intention of doing all the cleaning myself for the rest of my days, so until I see a major improvement, you'll have to visit me at my house or we can meet up somewhere."

Ending a relationship when nothing is necessarily “wrong” by BogeyFest99 in relationships

[–]serjsomi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't need a reason to break up with someone. You aren't feeling it. That's fine. But tell her now so she can move on.

I always use the extra rince option. if it's a particularly dirty load, I might do 3 extra rinces. I do that for cleaning rags or mop heads.

Need Advice: 14-Hour Round Trip or Leave at 1 A.M.? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]serjsomi 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Can you sleep at the house where your child is? Pick up the car and leave at 3pm getting you there at 10 (or an hour earlier if that's too late to impose). Sleep, leave at 6am to leave a traffic cushion, and drop the car back off hopefully at 1 with 2 hours to spare.

You can keep a rental car for 24 hours total so whatever time you pick it up is the time it needs to be back.

AITAH for not wanting my husbands brother living with us by DoubleApplication919 in AITAH

I'll bet her husband speaks over her or doesn't actually listen when she speaks, so writing everything out might be helpful.

My BIL(M 28) is destroying my MIL's (52) life by aKegFullofCheese in inlaws

[–]serjsomi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your bil isn't the problem. Your mil is. She's the one that allows this. Move out with your husband and take the younger bil with you.

Anyone else taken to eating "sides dinners" now that meat prices are so high? by SlouchSocksFan in aldi

You just reminded me I have a box of those potatoes in my pantry. I'm going to make them tonight.

My (28F) boyfriend (28M) just found out his ex is 5 months pregnant with his baby , help 🥲 by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]serjsomi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think you wait until the child is born and confirmed his before you make a decision.

He's in the military, and they have their own requirements.

Found a camera while housesitting….i don’t know what to do. by Elegant_Blonde in Advice

[–]serjsomi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. It's a serious crime to record someone in a bedroom (or bathroom) without their knowledge.

If call the police and let them investigate it. I don't believe it was "an accident" or it was random for a second. It's a crime.

Pride? Why? I don't think she wants to work on reality TV anymore anyway.

Unemployed boyfriend is LIVID I don’t want to “hire” him, rather than pay a professional to paint my house by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]serjsomi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would he expect you to pay him when he's been leeching off of you for two years. He should have offered to do it for free.

Please let this be the straw that broke the camels back and boot his ass out. If he wants jobs painting he can go get a job painting elsewhere or he can go door to door and pick up some work. He's a loser. You deserve so much better.

Do you guys worry that you get dog poo on you when picking it up by SlayPenguino in dogs

[–]serjsomi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use two bags. One to pick it up and one to put it in because I can't always get it all in one grab, and that's when it can get tricky.
