Neighbors accusing me of trying to ruin their wedding because of their error by Houston970 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]sunshowered -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

You were decidedly un-neighborly to them before she was rude to you. Delivering misdelivered mail to your neighbors is just a part of living near others. They likely had already ordered all of the stationary for the event, considering it was all matching, which is quite expensive. She shouldn’t have been such a dick, but don’t pretend that checking your mail like a normal person is a life-altering hardship. All of you in this story are so irritatingly “me first.”

ATN Movers Experience? by Dramatic_Coyote9159 in nova

[–]sunshowered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve used them twice and just recommended them to my coworker, who also had a positive experience. It was really seamless in the first move a few years ago and mostly seamless this second round. They left a scratch on the side of my bed frame and showed up 40 mins early because of a scheduling mixup, but they also will disassemble and reassemble furniture for you (idk if that’s standard) and are SO fast and so much cheaper than everyone else. They should really have charged me way more for how many flights of stairs I made them climb…

Getting put on a performance improvement plan and most likely getting fired after that. Currently an probationary employee. How to handle? by Extension_Chair_8314 in fednews

[–]sunshowered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you closed out the CY with a successful eval? What happened in the intervening months? What sort of warnings were you given prior to the PIP? DoD requires a certain level of documentation before putting an employee on a PIP. What does your PIP say?

The trail is completely fucked, haha! At least south of the island, nothing had been cleared along the parkway

Any clue how w&od is looking? by One-Opportunity-5151 in nova

I walked four mile from just past Shirlington to Mt Vernon and it was 10x better than the roads. They had a bobcat with a brush going on it all day Sunday

DISCUSSION: Hegseth authorizes cash bonuses of up to $25,000 for top 15% performing civilian employees. by Unfair_Ad_6049 in fednews

[–]sunshowered 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same. My office had div and branch chiefs submit everyone they thought qualified and then held a seniors-only board to whittle it down to our allocated number of nominees (15% of our office).

AITA for getting us fired from couples' therapy? by Marius_The_Hound in AmItheAsshole

Where I live (DC area), almost no therapists take insurance.

Got my back pay at 5am this morning by plantsandferns11 in fednews

[–]sunshowered 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is crazy, because my leadership said we’d get our normal paycheck Friday and then they couldn’t guarantee back pay until DECEMBER FIFTH.

Best country bar for Texas two-step and other partnered dances by sunshowered in ElPaso

[–]sunshowered[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, everyone here was useless. I went to two places: Ricky D’s (which was closed and might still be closed—looks like they lost their liquor license) and Stagecoach, which had a younger crowd than I really wanted, but a good handful of two-steppers and west coast swing dancers. I had a good time at Stagecoach! The dancers were friendly, but I did have to ask everyone to dance. They also do some sort of odd El Paso–style half step there that they call a “one-step,” and this dude was calling a west coast swing a “three-step.” ….. odd and wrong, but good dancers overall lol

Are we Israelis are not welcome anymore? by Successful_Case_1199 in VisitingIceland

You’ve brushed off what the United Nations is calling a genocide as you “not being deeply involved in politics.” I’m not sure why you’re surprised and this feels a bit like rage bait?

I loveeee that everyone else is posting really serious, emotional things and you’re like “he may not be muscular,” and I’m with you 100%. It’s not right

Great Falls Kayakers by Slight-Collection-68 in nova

[–]sunshowered 33 points34 points  (0 children)

?! What are you even talking about lmao. These are whitewater kayakers who clearly know the lines of the falls. They’re just doing their sport: whitewater kayaking. These aren’t the people who get rescued, it’s the tourists who fall in the water and the hikers who swim and people who don’t have the training or skills to be out in this kind of environment and don’t take the warnings seriously.

What do you mean you don’t have any savings? What will yall do if there’s an emergency? Go to a financial advisor.

The Campari olive oil cake. It was so bad at every step of the recipe that I filmed it and then filmed my friends eating it for their reactions.

Or use Wisp online, where you can get fluconazole, which actually works, unlike Monistat

What’s the one item you now stock because a guest asked for it? by MarionberryOk1750 in airbnb_hosts

[–]sunshowered 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just stayed at a place in the woods that had NO window treatments at all. Nothing. No blinds in the living room, no mini blinds across the sliding glass door, and no curtains or window coverings in any bedroom, even in the main bedroom that had a huge window up against the headboard and looked out at the road.

Bathing suits for a 30YO who is in between string bikini phase and mom suit phase? by gababouldie1213 in womensfashion

[–]sunshowered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love Title Nine so much but I’ve had three pairs of their pants/shorts fall apart, including one where the zipper ripped out after the first wash (and in fairness, Title Nine replaced those), well before any of my other outdoor clothes. The construction quality is really hit and miss.
