My girlfriend decided to loving ghost me and just drop out of my life while continuing to post on Facebook about how she was just going about her life as usual. So I unfriended her because every time I logged on to Facebook it was like a punch in the gut, like surprise, pal, she doesn't love you like you thought she did. I hate it, I hate the idea of being single again, I don't know how to meet people and if anyone was wondering why I have trust issues, well... I'm tempted to just box up everything she ever gave me and drop it off on her front lawn, but I know that would be childish. I'll probably just end up throwing it all out. So it's been nothing but lovely days for the past month or so. And now I have a client quibbling over a $100/month difference in the rent for an apartment that's listed differently on two different websites when he was just fine paying the higher rate when he called me, when I showed him the apartment, and when he filled out the application and wrote me a check for the first month's rent. Dude, you make $170k a year, you knew the rent when you called me, suck it up. I'm not responsible for the discrepancy, I'm not the landlord, and now I have to bring this to the property manager on Monday like he's not going to tell me to pound sand and just rent the place to someone else. venus de lmao has a new favorite as of 14:38 on Sep 23, 2018 |

cinni posted:Wtf. I don't even go to starbucks, and if I did, it probably wouldn't buy me more than two things. Despite Starbucks having a reputation for "$5 cups of bad coffee" their bad coffee is actually similarly priced compared to better coffee shops, with the largest hardcore caffeine addict size of thirty loving ounces of iced coffee the only regular coffee that cracks the three dollar mark. They also have a blond espresso that's actually fairly tasty because they can't burn it like they do with their darker roasts, and I think a blond latte is the same price as their regular "burnt garbage roast" lattes. You could easily get a cup of bad coffee, an unsatisfyingly small and greasy breakfast sandwich, and one of their narrow selection of overpriced bakery items for , or maybe a sandwich and one of those 600 calorie vanilla bullshit things.

Danaru posted:Working in a ward today with a patient who just bellows "NUUURSE! NUUURSE!" instead of hitting the call button right beside her because she thinks bellowing makes the nurses prioritize her over the other patients. It does not, because the hospital has a strict prioritization system specifically to prevent that, but also that means the last three hours has been listening to her nonstop except for the few times she stops for a minute after a nurse puts more ice in her water, or brings her a newspaper. I still have five hours of my shift left, and naturally all the staff and other patients are in a bad mood because of the constant monotone yelling. God I'm so loving glad I got out of healthcare. At least in real estate if a client is a lunatic I can just say I would prefer not to work with you, don't contact me again.

Supervisor said he had to cover it and was kinda annoyed about it, but said it was over and done with. Hi friend this is me too I'm a real estate agent and every time I didn't get a deal I used to beat myself up over it and catastrophize to no end about how I was going to end up homeless. Please get help, I am not being flippant, therapy works. I'm autistic too and I understand the struggle. It does get better.

If you have authority over people and they are refusing to do what you tell them to do, that sounds like they're the ones with a problem, not you. Do you have the authority to write them up?

The company is already rapidly circling the drain. Start looking for a new job yesterday. E: oh, I see you said that you're actively looking. Yeah, that's nothing but red flags there. I wouldn't be surprised if paychecks start coming late.

I still randomly think about texting my dad, or I'll make a mental note of something I saw that he'd like, and he died in August. Combine that with general anxiety, major depression, and having been through some traumatic poo poo over the past year and life is just... pain.

Captain Invictus posted:eject her from the vehicle for making you feel unsafe imo We were stuck in traffic on the highway, and she started with some "I'm the customer, bitch, I'm always right" bullshit when I asked her not to shout in my ear, so I said something like do you wanna get to your destination or do you wanna get out at the next exit and that's when she went loving berserk and started falsely accusing me of "threatening to leave me and my child on the side of the highway" and then when she noticed she/her pronouns in my driver profile she switched from referring to me as "this man" to calling me "it" and "he-she" and "freak" and loudly speculating about what kind of genitals I might have. So she demanded that I take her to the McDonald's that was just off the next exit, and I'm just hoping at this point that she's not going to put her hands on me or pull a weapon, so I drive to the McDonald's listening to her alternate between screaming at me that I'm going to jail because her mom works for the state police and complaining on the phone to her sister that "I can't be at this McDonald's dressed like this, I'm gonna look like a crazy person" (lol, lmao) and "I should have just driven my car" yeah bitch you should have but instead your sister's lyft account is probably gonna get banned there should be consequences for trying to weaponize the police against marginalized people but this is America and nothing is gonna happen and I'm gonna just have to keep working I can't stop thinking about that Uber driver whose passenger murdered him because she was convinced that he was kidnapping her to Mexico venus de lmao has a new favorite as of 14:32 on Sep 22, 2023 |

Biplane posted:It's either rent is going up, or I'm being evicted. I can't handle either of those right now. So if I ignore it, maybe this time it will go away If you were being evicted, you'd be served notice. Eviction isn't just the landlord going "you're evicted get out lol" at least everywhere I'm familiar with

DicktheCat posted:Sorry to double post, but if it's in the USA, this is true afaik. The key point here is that your landlord does not evict you. They petition the court to evict you. A letter on your door from the landlord is usually because they are required to give you notice so many days in advance before they are allowed to file for eviction, so larger companies will often send the notice out the day a payment is missed in case they decide to proceed with the eviction. Usually, they'd rather you just pay. Recommend learning the specifics for where you live and finding out what rights you have as a renter.

Those screen protectors are fantastic. I believe the "glue" is actually just a UV resin that fills in all the scratches and imperfections on your screen and makes them basically disappear; I had one ages ago. There really isn't a better one out there. My complaint is that I replaced the extruder motor on my 3D printer at the same time that I upgraded to a new firmware (Klipper, which was a headache in itself trying to get it configured for my printer), and once I finally started it up and calibrated a bunch of stuff, the extruder was just not putting through the correct amount of material. So I'm stuck because I was planning on upgrading to a better extruder and a new mainboard at some point. Do I continue to wrestle with the stock board that's probably perfectly fine or do I go ahead and upgrade it now and have to go through the whole process of flashing the firmware and configuring the printer all over again? This is an extremely niche nerd frustration, but I've been beating my head against it for several days.

SubNat posted:Sounds like incorrect e-steps, have you calibrated that? Should just be a couple min of extruding 100mm, adjusting the e-steps, then repeating until it's nice. lol, it's a lot of things I am still trying to fine tune

Going to try to make it through today without breaking down. Don't know if I can (update: nope) My friend is gone. My life has been upended. I'm so tired of hearing how sorry everyone is. It hurts more than words can express. Check in on the people you love. Tell them you love them before you can't anymore. There was a lot I should have said, and a lot I shouldn't have said, and now I can never make it right. Suicide destroys so many more lives than just the one. Please reach out to someone if you're struggling. Previous post was an hour after I found her, I was still in shock. venus de lmao has a new favorite as of 19:41 on Mar 28, 2024 |
