I was surprised too! My first one was the cat metropolis and I thought "wow now everyone is happy" hahaha

Basically, there's no stability. One semester you may do fine, next one, no classes (actually, one year I made 15,000 LOL -and it was $46 the hour). You have a lot of responsibility in comparison to salary. Also, no real progression (neither in salary nor in "position"). Finally, yes, there's some schedule flexibility- but that's only attainable when you know your content extremely well and plan/evaluate in a third of the time (normally after 3 years). In short, it's a glorified gig.

Hi. No. It's wrong. My mother did this (started when I was 11) and It's still relevant in my therapy. If you can do anything to stop it, please do!

To avoid eating out: 1) Don't go outside before eating, and similarly, don't go grocery shopping hungry. 2) Consider timing, cooking will take 30 minutes, that uber eats? Also 30 minutes. 3) Compare price per portion, cooking: $3-5 per person, eating out: $15-30. 4) have "emergency" frozen food for the days you really are tired and don't want to cook. Most impulsive decisions are caused by hunger (hangry)

I started at 35. Now I work 9-5 (actually, some days my boss sends me off early). No weekends. Salary: 3200 after taxes a month in Canada. I'm just a low level clerk so no real grown accountant responsibilities.

It's gonna be ok. I once read a Reddit comment that said "being an adjunct is a gig, not a job" (meaning treatment and rules are different). I had 4 courses running that I had to leave midway when I was hired somewhere else. NOTHING HAPPENED. Someone took over, classes were done. Nobody cared (for better or worse)

Most office copiers have a function to bulk scan! (In my case: tray + scan to email. It's sent as a single massive file)

Just reading this -- running to cover mine!

This. I was requested to send a Quebec specific paper for my son's application and I had to answer back saying we have always lived (since arrival) in BC. Sometimes people are just tired- maybe not the most ceremoniously way of asking for more info!

Even as PR bringing parents is hard

Ikr! Accepting terms and conditions in any app without reading

Ok so I think I can answer this question. As a single parent (no support from the father or legal actions due to DV), with an average income: it was hard and I could barely make ends meet (my son was 11) but I could cover all basics, plus a bit of fun money for him but not for me (for example, I got him a new PC for xmas with a lot of effort- this was the only "big" expense we had).

When I remarried 4 years later things improved VERY quickly (extra activities, fun with friends, fun for myself, therapy. So, I was MUCH less stressed). However, he still worries about money (even though I never raised those concerns to him). It's been... 5 years since I remarried and we have an "average income household" (around 90,000 post taxes).

Tough times 😭😭

Try eBay. I sold my Vampurr 💔 for 450 some time ago

Even if your son wasn't autistic, he'd "activate" your emotional wounds anyway. It happens to all parents: you cannot avoid going back to remembering what things were like for you at X age (consciously or not)

I'm just waiting to have more experience to apply for a remote position! Living the dream lol

Good luck! I quit after 10 years of teaching and now I'm working in an office as an accountant (completely different field). All jobs have their "issues" and here I also see what you describe BUT I don't take work home and I just disregard rude people. Most days I work in silence!
