My last day and we're an hour late with high numbers. And also for some reason my fingers keep going numb even though it's no colder in there than usual.

Son of a bithc, my internet just got shut off today. I am, uh, several months behind at this point but boy do I wish services would stop getting turned off without warning. I really hope I get that job I I reviewed for. Lol, just wanted to add that my only chair just broke so if I put any weight on the right side towards to back it just tips straight over so I'm basically just perched on the front with no back support. But it's still useable so gently caress it Garrand has a new favorite as of 18:51 on Nov 6, 2020 |

I’m moving for a new job on Sunday and my new schedule is gonna suck (4a-1230p), I’m going to be living in a hotel, and I’m not going to know anyone and there’s no way to meet people with everything shut down. It’s such a bummer.

The anti depressants I got prescribed are making me exhausted, dizzy and nauseated. They work for my emotions, I feel great there, at least. gently caress.

Work starts in under four hours and I haven't had solid sleep since Saturday night so I have to call out because I'm not going into work on like 2-3 hours of sleep in 36 hours. They keep not using my sick days for when I'm out so I still have a bunch to use, but it's just really annoying that I can't get to sleep. Fall asleep for an hour, wake up wide awake and sit in bed for another hour trying to get back to sleep before giving up. I can take some stuff to really make sure I get some sleep, but I try not to because then I sleep for like 10+ hours. But I definitely will this time.

First paycheck comes with my signing bonus which would make quitting a substantial pain in the rear end since I have to pay it back and like 30 percent gets withheld on taxes, so I would actually come out behind.

Celeste is missing from my steam library, it's not even in the folder. I have no idea what happened to it, I bought it a while ago and beat it, but no evidence is on my computer at all. I did a fix involving clearing the cache, but it's still not there. If I want to play it again it looks like I'd have to rebuy it. Unless I can find the reciept in the email and contact support. The receipt corrected me - it was in the epic store. I totally forgot I'd used that.

Well then there's your answer! Just become hyper-vigilant and super by the book until they decide to move on from you. Nothing is more infuriating than someone that follows the rules and maybe knowing that you're making their lives a living hell will be enough to keep plowing forward. As for my own lovely day, one of my bigger clients got tossed out of my bank and because of that it dipped me below one of my commission breakpoints, so I'm going to miss out on a considerable amount of income for the quarter. It really sucks because I was think about starting to look into breaking out on my own as an independent advisor sometime next year and could really use the extra cash. On the plus side he was an absolute nightmare of a client with zero redeeming qualities, so having him be out of my work life is almost worth losing a bunch of money.

I won a charity bid for a front row parking spot at work because I am sick of the jousting that happens in the parking lot as far too many people fight over far too few spots. Someone has parked in my spot a third of the time I've had it, and security has said they won't do anything beyond put a sticker on the car saying not to park there. But that's meaningless when it's a different person doing it every day. Even marking the spot with a traffic cone does nothing, they just move the cone. If this keeps happening every day, I'm going to ask for my money back, I thought they'd actually do something about it but no, and these spots are very much not cheap, I only splurged for it because trying to get parking during the holiday season is an absolute nightmare and I didn't want to deal with the parking lot rage and fights (which do happen), and now that's still pointless because people keep stealing the spot.

I am at a loss for what to do with my lovely loving roommate. Three straight weeks she's been hosting her loser FWB hook-up because she's lonely, and not only does she refuse to ask him to chip in on rent/utilities or even do chores, she didn't even let me know he was essentially moving in. Meanwhile if I so much as ask "How long is he staying?" I get a very hostile "I don't know." The last time she did this and I pushed on the very reasonable point "If I did this with a girl you'd be asking for our heads on pikes. Why can't he chip in?" she threw a loving tantrum for weeks. I'm stuck on the lease with this jerk for at least 5 more months, and I don't know what to do that isn't throwing down a gauntlet and escalating. That's why she's being such an abusive poo poo. She knows my only options are to basically nuke the household. Not going to lie, I'm tempted to though. The lack of courtesy and respect she's showing is ridiculous. Christ I hope I can save up enough to get the gently caress away from her in 5 months. Why do moving costs have to be so loving high?

What does your landlord say about another person moving in? Tortoise hut heat lamp fell today. Thankfully my mom was home, not at work, and caught the smoke before there was a fire. So we had to shove all our tortoises into the old hut (think a supersized dog house) for the cold night, while we figure out how to fix the heater/make a new setup. The irritating thing is we've had all year to do it, but every design I had didn't work, and the dude who built it kinda messed up by adding a floor, so we also found, when digging out all the smoky straw, that some box turtles dug under the thing, and were crushed/couldn't get out and died.

mind the walrus posted:That's what I mean by "no option left but escalate." That would work, but then it creates an even more hostile environment for the remaining 5 months while I struggle to scrounge up the money to move (I'm working 3 jobs already and can barely afford my bills). My roommate is very petty and vindictive, and I leave my dog alone with her. She's already pulled the insane move of contacting my girlfriend behind my back to try and complain about me, then blowing up at her when she told my roommate to kick rocks. She thinks I'm that I don't know that she did this. It sucks but you didn't create the lovely situation - your roommate did. You not escalating things because you don't want to rock the boat further is what she's banking on. Escalate the situation. Things are going to be lovely so why not make them lovely for her too?

I just found out my dog has cancer, we won’t know for a few days what kind, and my Mom’s work is threatening to send her in to help with patient care (she’s an office worker for a hospital with no medical training). Right now it’s voluntary but they said it might become compulsory.

Escalate the situation. Things are going to be lovely so why not make them lovely for her too? Captain Invictus posted:Make sure anything you truly cherish is off site before you do imo The upshot is I did some serious budget work and realized that if I'm careful and nothing calamitous happens, I can afford to move out. It'll be tight, but it would have been tight anyway. The only problem is that there will still be a 1-2 month gap (minimum) where I have to break the news to her "I don't want to live with you anymore" and I'm worried about spite. I don't think she'd cause serious harm to my dog, but I still don't like taking the risk, you feel me? But yeah you're right-- I didn't create the bad situation. I really didn't. I've always paid my bills on-time and kept the place clean. She's the one who decided that wasn't enough to respect and that she had to impose her will on me, and refused to deescalate when confronted. A rando might not be much better, but it's also a good chance to downsize and up my mobility, which I want to do anyway because my long-term plans aren't tied to this region. I'm just broken-hearted. I really did think better of her. I'm sure she would say the same about me.

Yeah I at least doubt they would ever actually try to pull that poo poo because it sounds like lawsuit city, it’s still garbage that they’re even considering it. She’s planning to quit as soon as the pandemic is over anyway because the managers are loving awful.

Tortoise hut didn't burn down, just stinks from the smoke. At least it's not super freezing at night, so they're cramped in the old one at night, but better that than URIs. Walrus, can anyone else take your dog for a short while?

mind the walrus posted:Yeah this is why I'm not escalating-- my elderly dog is at home and has to be left alone with her for hours at a time. She's already abused the poor girl. My dog is admittedly neurotic but terrified of my roommate in a "this woman did something to me and I don't feel safe" way. I already have a camera hidden and haven't seen anything, but at some point in the recent past my roommate definitely did something to gently caress with her. If it's this bad, you went the right route in putting up security, especially for your dog. Do you have anyone that can watch your pup temporarily while you move? Personally I wouldn't say poo poo to your toxic roommate, if at all possible - let your landlord know what's going on, make your plans, quietly remove yourself from the lease & ghost her abusive rear end. She & her FWB squatter friend can figure poo poo out on their own. Also, when you move, make sure you get friends or local authorities to stop by so you can make sure nothing lovely happens, definitely sounds like she's the type that would cause drama, lie & go full nuclear when she doesn't get her way.

I spent most of Thursday and Friday sleeping. Yesterday I wasn't as tired but I get winded easily. Same thing today. I'm also having some light headedness, a run down feeling, and a persistent but mild headache. Im also alternating between boiling and freezing but I don't have a fever. Thankfully I'm not experiencing any respiratory symptoms. I can breathe just fine and I don't have a cough.

Reminded me of when I had a bad cold last year - I felt a chill so made the mistake of putting on my dressing gown, only to realise a few hours later that the shaking was because I was OVERheating, not cold, and so I just gradually fell down in a really slow faint for a few seconds before I could stand up enough to get my dressing gown off.

My dog is 18, and I know she's long outlived her normal lifespan, but this past week she's really begun to show her feebleness, and her physical and mental decline. it's hard to come to terms with. she's still occasionally cognizant, but there's definitely times when she just kinda walks into things, and she's now blind in one eye. The vet earlier this week said she's physically healthy, just old, so I guess it's just her brain deteriorating. Like I let her out to go to the bathroom earlier and when she came back to come in she just kinda wandered headfirst into the door frame. It sucks. And I was planning on sleeping a bit less today so I could get back on my work schedule, and instead apparently rolled over, turned off my alarm, went back to sleep and just absolutely blew past when I was planning to wake up. so that's all hosed now.
