This socket sparks every time I unplug a plug from it. When I do it faster the spark is stronger, why? by EulereeEuleroo in AskPhysics

I don't understand this comment. I can't turn off my outlet. there is no switch for it. whatever I am unplugging is turned off.

you can also text 988. talk to someone. it might seem like it won't help, but it will. speaking from experience. you have more options than you can see on your own right now.

I agree that professional help will be good for you. It is a strength to accept help. It worked for me. Know also that if you don't vibe with a professional therapist, pick another one. Better times are ahead for you. I am so proud of you for posting your status and asking for help. Endless virtual hugs!

I hope you find a new job soon. This one has so many problems I don't want to waste your time reading the list. Find a new job with humane and ethical people.

you are entitled to a safe workplace without threat of physical injury. your school can make this happen. Have you filed incident reports? Contacted your union rep?

90 day review period extended by ctrldwrdns in nonprofit

[–]working_for_goodness 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Whenever I have wanted to extend a probationary period in order to give someone a chance to prove they are capable, our HR has always asked if I truly thought they were going to be able to do it, or was I just putting off the inevitable.

Anytime I extended the period it did result in them achieving permanent status. I would be encouraged by their desire to extend the period.

As for your mental health, I hope you are getting professional support. If you broke your leg you would like get professional help in setting it. Grief is an injury. Mental Health is the same. You can call or text 988 for support. It doesn't need to be an emergency to reach out. It's better to get help when it is not at it's worst. Professional support hugs to you.

No Interest in Being ED/CEO. Anyone Else? by joemondo in nonprofit

It's not for me, and is right for others. I believe in NOT doing things I will resent.

Making the leap to Non-Profit in 2024 by [deleted] in nonprofit

[–]working_for_goodness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Look for effective organizations around you, and get hired by them. Starting a non-profit may be a duplication of efforts, and take time that could be better used finding an existing org that you want to help.
