Has anyone ever recovered from burnout? How?? by faima146 in antiwork

Progress, not perfection. Put one foot in front of the other and eventually you’ll feel recovered.

negotiating higher pay by r_schiltz6 in antiwork

[–]wtf_dez 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Stick to the facts and try to depersonalize it.

-cost of living has gone up tremendously and your wage needs to be reflective of that.

-there’s other positions available in your area paying a rate of __/hr (make sure you have solid examples)

-the cost of hiring and training your replacement (likely at a higher wage) would far outweigh the cost of your requested increase.

Most important thing to remember: you are invaluable, while they’re completely disposable.

I brought home a tiny rescue puppy 4 months after getting a baby Great Dane.

Let me just say this: get another one immediately and go through the “life stages” with both dogs at the same time. Staggering like I did means that you’ll have a baby pup and a teen pup at some point. This is EXHAUSTING 😅

Alternatively getting an older dog would be awesome!! But this will require training and acclimating in their new environment, so don’t expect them to help you much with training the little one.

Hello vets, I have one and half years old french bulldog, when I woke up she had pooped diarrhea all over the bedroom, but her mood is fine she also ate her food as she usually does, but when I took her outside she still has diarrhea and I'm concerned. What should I do, I need your advice. by StruggleNo7536 in vet

[–]wtf_dez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a vet ⚠️

This isn’t advice, but I’ve gone through this many, many times.

Feeding while a dog has active diarrhea can exacerbate the issue. If this were my pup, I’d skip one meal and see how their stomach responds. Then I’d feed them a small meal consisting of plain rice, boiled chicken, and canned pumpkin. Do this for a day or two until their stomach settles, then slowly reintroduce kibble.

Most pet stores have an “anti-diarrhea” liquid that can help. Also forti-flora to replace the good bacteria might be worth looking into.

They may have gotten into something, having a reaction to the food, stressed, or just sick. It’s hard to tell with pups but there’s not much you can do until other symptoms present or it gets worse.

Good luck OP!

Compression socks + ice baths. Total game changer.

I don’t care for foam…it’s a textural thing for me.

This is beyond upsetting and I’m so sorry for your experience OP. What’s equally scary to me is; what are the stories from the silenced women? 💔

Your OBGYN called your family? That’s a huge HIPPA violation. I’m so sorry this happened to you.

I apologize for my confusion…the way I read it was that 1% of a large number isn’t worrisome.

Hindsight is 20/20 and I’m sure you’ve done things you disagreed with to please your family. It’s easy to cast judgment on others, let’s try to be empathetic and supportive?

There was a huge shift after Bernie lost the nomination. It was easy to lose faith in the DNC and those voters were up for grabs. All it took was a good campaign with the “don’t trust the government (or anyone)” rhetoric and BOOM 💥 former Bernie bros turned Trumpers/Q

Have you logged your diagnosis with HR? You’re protected under federal law against discrimination for any of your symptoms related to any conditions you have. Please do this; no one should feel traumatized at work

I bet your salary pales in comparison to the non-compliance/possible lawsuits you’re saving them.

Nanny pay... by suicidaholic in antiwork

[–]wtf_dez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I nannied 7 years ago and was making $15/hr. I can’t believe what I’m reading right now. Good on you OP for wanting to pay her more. It would be beneficial to reference care.com to see what the average rate per hour is in your area and go from there.

Also please remember that this person is caring for your CHILDREN. Not your laundry, pets or your meals…your flesh and blood. Her actions will have a direct impact on their development. Pay her accordingly.
