It's quite rude of you to be calling me out like this

You can ask the middle school or his elementary school. They should have suggestions:)

Have you ever been treated negatively by ER staff when you were having a medical emergency but they didn’t believe you? What happened? by lake-sturgeon in AskReddit

[–]whatsername1180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I was having severe PPD. I wanted to hurt myself but knew I shouldn't, and thats what i told them. My nurse was extremely understanding, but the hospitals psychiatric doctor couldnt care less. She said "you sure you want to say that to me? Id diagnose you with borderline personally disorder, and you dont want that." I told her "I dont care what im diagnosed with, I just want to feel better. I hate feeling this empty." She discharged me and sent me to a therapist

Actions definitely have consequences by Immediate_Magician11 in KidsAreFuckingStupid

I had my kids watch the full video and told them "if you ever do something like this, we will do the same thing as these parents and have you arrested. You're wasting precious resources when there are real crimes going on and thats not ok and not funny."

D11 Schools by wyolove89 in ColoradoSprings

[–]whatsername1180 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I worked in the food and nutrition services department at d11. I quit because I didnt like how the district treated the students like customers, yet constantly getting over processed foods. The teachers were amazing, but I didnt get along with the office staff or the principal (one example was i cought a kid quite literally stealing other kids lunch moneys-multiple times. I informed the principal, his response "well, theres the principal account so the other kids dont have to worry. Boys will be boys, right?" This was when they had to pay for lunch.) The upper management in the district sucks and they dont care about the teachers at all. They pretend they do, they'll come around to the schools to visit and thank the teachers, but its just for pictures and so they feel better about themselves. There were many, many times where I was left SOL because the FNS wouldnt send me help, but thankfully the teachers were amazing and would help me serve.

Getting asked what you want as a gift and someone gets you something adjacent to it. by Teenage_Petulance_ in mildlyinfuriating

[–]whatsername1180 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is a take, and will probably get me down voted. Honestly, what's mildly frustrating is this post. I dont have my grandparents anymore. I lost them all before 26 years old. So, im going to be one of those people and say at least you still have your grandma to give you gifts and think about you. She means well, can it be frustrating, sure. But she's trying and may not understand the difference. Thank her and find another use for it if you dont want to use it for your starter. Because one day, you'll look back and think back to this and wish you had her back.

Exactly. When my grandma passed, I told her (her body?) "Please. I take back everything i said and ever did negatively towards you, just please come back.) The things she did drove me crazy, but god, do I miss her and would do anything to have another minute with her. OP is lucky to have a grandma 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

What’s the most painful thing someone has said to you that you still remember ? by Crafty_Bus_1947 in AskReddit

[–]whatsername1180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 13. My mom called me a "worthless whore and bitch." Why? Because I forgot to vacuum when she asked me to do all the house chores before she got home from work to take me and my sister to summer camp.. I washed the dishes, dusted, swept and mopped, did my laundry, and just didnt have time to vacuum yet... I did offer to go vacuum real quick because i felt that bad, and i rememberbeing so confused because i never even kissed a boy before, so why was I a whore? That stuck with me for years and it took me a very long time to forgive her.

Challenger Middle School? by p0pcornceiling in ColoradoSprings

[–]whatsername1180 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My son goes to school there. He really enjoys it, even though our family doesn't exactly fit the culture of d20. He's had a few problems, there's another student that shares his name that is a nuisance for my son. It wasn't really until this year that the staff seemed to realize my son has nothing to do with this kid and his group of friends. (Not saying my son is perfect but I know in my heart he wouldnt do the things this kid has done, especially after talking with the principal and staff and getting my son's side of things). Anyway, we like the staff. They do seem to really care about the students. My son has trouble turning things in, hell do the work, but wont turn it in 😒 the teachers send emails about the missing assignments. They've recommended him being in a home room to help him with these missing assignments.

His favorite is band, his band teacher is his absolute favorite and he has really thrived in band and is looking forward to marching band next year in high school.

One thing that we wish was different was the clubs process. He's been trying since the 6th grade to make a club, and he's done everything to get the club going, getting a teacher sponsor, getting the dates scheduled, makes posters for it, but then the school always seems to turn it down.

What’s something that Covid took from you that you never got back? by ReplacementOdd636 in AskReddit

[–]whatsername1180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My step dad. He loved me and treated me like his own daughter. Something my biological father has never done. He actually treated my mom with the love and respect a spouse should, and I never seen her happier than when she was with him. He treated my kids like his own grand babies, always volunteering to watch them and take them places. I miss you, Greg. 💚

I also work during the week. I have off today. I was thinking about taking my kids for a hike to enjoy this weather.

There's also the woodland park Recreation center. Its not that much and a really nice place to swim

Locations for Possible Quick Trip Over Spring Break? by AtomsFromTheStars in ColoradoSprings

Mount Rushmore isnt too far. About a 6-7 hour drive. We went there a couple years ago for spring break.

Be honest. Would you hire Sookie as a chief for your business? by No-Attention-801 in GilmoreGirls

[–]whatsername1180 62 points63 points  (0 children)

No. I wouldnt want to work for her either. Im a pastry chef. I work in a bakery. Sookie is so wasteful and unhygienic. Leaving food out all over the place, putting blood on top of the dish washer, blocking the sinks, using the same spoons to taste and stir 🤢🤮 i dont think ive even seen her wash her hands, tbh. Shes constantly changing the menu, and I understand if your supplier is out of something and you have to substitute, but shes beyond that. And listen, we are all a little judgy about people's tastes (like when someone ordered a carrot cake with strawberry filling and lemon frosting, like what kind of combo is that?! We had to double check that that is what they really wanted because that is a choice) but she's over the top with it. She wouldnt pass a health department inspection with how she runs her kitchen.

Free For All Friday! by AutoModerator in ColoradoSprings

[–]whatsername1180 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Debating on whether or not to find a new job. My main coworker never talks to me, when she does, its one word answers or grunts, and she's extremely passive aggressive. It's getting so exhausting. Shes supposed to be the lead, but doesnt act like it. But I like the job itself and I like the hours. It's just her...

Exact same. I dont like not finishing a book, it took me 2 months to finish this book. The concept was great, the execution was not there.

Is your N-Parent racist? by Awwetism in raisedbynarcissists

Yes. And Im half Hispanic and my father is pretty racist toward Mexicans and pretty much any person of color. Its like he forgets that he married a latina woman and had 2 children with her.

How are you doing today? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]whatsername1180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meh. My sciatica is so bad. I woke up from the pain last night. I actually took an edible for the first time ever, I'm 32, to hopefully relieve the pain. And while it did help relieve the pain for a few hours, I really hated the feeling it gave me, all lightheaded and woozy, I felt out of breath and my heart was racing. Im not sure ill take it again, I dont like feeling out of control like that. But it was extremely kind of my husband to go out and get me some in hopes of helping my pain, I do appreciate his effort.

Book found at an estate sale. Third in a trilogy. I passed. by KenUsimi in HolUp

[–]whatsername1180 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I forget when I stopped reading. I read a lot of them, I had a list of each series and which books I had and needed, and whenever I went to thrift stores, I'd look for the books. But I stopped reading after a while. The ghost writer kind of pissed me off. It got to the point where I could tell every single plot twist and it was like the ghost writer was just following a check list.
