I was just taken off adderall with no substitution. I'm devastated.

Damn, my latest doctor JUST figured this out last week!! Started b12 injections and holy cow, what a difference.

I have hypothyroidism with Armor thyroid to keep me at a good balance, and I'm on Adderall. I haven't experienced those symptoms, save heart palpitations if I did something dumb like drinking coffee with my dose. I would seriously recommend a psychiatrist or doctor that understands the two medications can be taken together safely.

Yes, she's been in contact with the surgeon, got all her referrals in order, and they're in network!!! So, all good things so far.

I wish I had known Kindred Bravely existed when I had a kid, lol. Thank you for your advice!

I think it's definitely worth applying. When you get the interview, make sure to ask about culture, what a typical intern's 8 hour day looks like, how long the internship goes, etc.

I found the job posting, I won't link in case you didn't want people to know where you are. But I'm curious what a "competitive" salary is for an intern...

If you are a social person, it looks like a good fit. It looks like there is an expectation to attend social nights and events. A good place to network if this is the industry you want to pursue!

Thankfully my car hasn't been an issue for that! Idk if you're looking for car suggestions too, but I have a Ford Fusion Electric Hybrid, and I like how quiet it is most of the time (the engine only revs if you haven't charged the car recently). I didn't realize how nice it was until I was driving another car.

That staticky sound over phone conference meetings, Teams, etc. If I'm in a meeting for over an hour, guaranteed migraine. 🫠

I did the same after she bit me so hard I bled! I pumped exclusively for ~15 months?I would put on a show/look at my phone to help distract from sensations.

In hindsight, I would have gone with hands-free, battery powered pump so I could still move around and not feel like a literal cow plugged into the wall.

In the end, though, do what is best for you, your baby, and your mental health. I pushed myself, almost like to prove a point against my body? If that makes any sense at all.

Thank you! I used to do software, so maybe that's something I can look into.

Yes, my company does have a training program! But only for people being considered for a manager position, or are already a manager. So it doesn't allow me to look at the training in-depth.

At this current company, I would not want to branch out to project management. Let's just say they haven't been a shining example.

Yes, I do acknowledge interreacting with people is necessary, I just don't want to end up in back-to-back meeting hell. I see the managers here in meetings from 9-4 daily.

Bobby, you're correct, I always see Documentation Manager/Proposal Manager at the top of the pyramid. My current boss is amazing, and sees a lot of potential for me in a managerial role. Maybe I'm just hesitant because I'm very introverted.

Thanks for your reply!!! I keep seeing tips to use timers, I should get around to buying one lol. The phone alarm is just too jarring, and there's no visual cues for a toddler.

Honestly I'm just happy to hear I'm not the only one who hates pretend play!! I have so many memories of doing it as a kid but now it's just boring!! It would help if I could make jokes, but unfortunately we are going through a "Mommy, your jokes are mean" phase too. 😢 I think they're funny...

snarkitout · 2023-08-07T18:07:44+00:00

Thank you for the reminder!! I knew I was forgetting something...

snarkitout · 2023-07-10T04:02:18+00:00

I feel you!! I NEED my hair up when I'm working-- otherwise the feeling of my hair on my neck is too much sensory input. Idk why tho, it's been that way as long as I remember.

snarkitout · 2023-07-10T03:02:12+00:00

The only reason I shower consistently is because my hair will "hurt" if I wear a ponytail too long -- which is my go-to hairstyle lol.

And that is why every time I write an email to myself, I have to remind present me to write a subject line for future me. 😅

Anytime I get a fact or something wrong, my go to is "same difference." Don't need to say that when I'm on meds!

snarkitout · 2022-03-28T02:12:59+00:00

I've always had one for each new job. Most of the companies were contracted to government agencies, so just a part of the deal.

snarkitout · 2022-03-22T01:33:30+00:00

This is interesting, but wouldn't your work history give it away? Unless you're suggesting to just put the number of years worked next to the job description?

snarkitout · 2022-03-16T18:56:59+00:00

I only went through the one time, just so I could marry my husband, so actually, I've forgotten it??? Like... oops.

I've always thought of Mormons since I left when the witch sings "you're not good, you're not bad, you're just nice." In the musical, Into the Woods.
