I was put on hydroxychloroquine a few months ago and it’s great, but having a formal diagnosis now is making it scary.
You’re good. I appreciate the advice. :)
My doctor has given me all sorts of info on it. I was looking for more first hand account kinds of things.
I work as a helpdesk tech and I always say that I killed a task in task manager when writing up ticket notes.
If by younger, you mean two years younger than now, them I have a story that is applicable in regards to my career.
Got fired from my first job in my field (IT, specifically tech support/help desk.) The firing was unexpected and done in a Tuesday afternoon with zero warning. I wasn’t given and kind of formal write-ups and had been getting great performance reviews. I was crushed. The reasoning that my boss told me was that “I wasn’t learning fast enough.” Which was absolute bullshit because I was left alone to run the department on a regular basis. I did all of my tasks and did them well and users loved me.
I suspect I was the fall guy for all the failing projects my boss was implementing. They cost far more money than he said they would. I believe I was fired so he wouldn’t get a pay cut.
I was absolutely heartbroken and considered going into another field entirely, after fighting my way through the rampant sexism in college and in job hunting. The first tech job I applied to after being fired (three days later), called me almost immediately after I applied. I did a phone interview and was then asked to do a practical interview the next day. I did well enough to get offered the job before I had finished the half hour drive home.
I make so much more money now, have great benefits, and I am respected and encouraged to grow. This job is absolutely incredible.
My grandmother says getting fired from my previous job was the best thing that happened to my career and I agree with her.
The emotional damage getting fired like I did has given me crippling anxiety that my therapist likens to that of PTSD, but without some of the PTSD symptoms. I’m getting treatment for it, and I’m at the stage where it’s getting worse before it gets better.
I had an hour long panic attack when I had to tell my boss that a doctor told me to take a week off to recover from an injury that wasn’t healing right and hindering my daily life. My boss wasn’t pleased and told me my attendance will need to be near perfect because I have already missed a lot (I have.) I’m not worried about getting fired anymore, so I haven’t panicked since, but I do get flare ups of anxiety. I get to go back and face everyone on Tuesday and hope that I won’t have to talk about it face to face because I will end up panicking then.
Can’t remember the exact price per kwh, but I pay around $120/month in the summer and about $75-100/month in the winter. The winter varies so much based on how many heat lamps I have to provide for my ducks and how many heated water bowls they use. Last winter I had two lamps set up for a while then went back down to one. They used two heated bowls a day, but I have new birds this year, so they may use more.
This is all in Pennsylvania, btw
Got really drunk with some other folks at a wedding reception in a park. It had one of these. There were about 10 of us crammed on it and two other people were spinning it. We went flying and it was incredible. 10/10 would recommend.
Oh yes. He’s the best beagle I’ve ever met. Ironic part is that I was actively avoiding beagles when looking at dogs to adopt. This guy was labeled as a coonhound puppy and he looked EXACTLY like one. But then he wasn’t growing. Or teething. Got a DNA test after the vet said he was 5 months old and it turns out he is 100% beagle. I love him more than life itself, but I will never own another beagle lol.
True
I will!
It was only like 15 mins lmao.
I stood there with my other dog and watched him run around like an idiot.
We’ve tested both and neither work. We quadruple checked the IP. Windows is the host. I’ll have my friend double check his firewall settings to be safe.
Hell yeah white baby
I would hang around in a specific and lesser-known classroom in college. The professor gave a few students permission to get it unlocked by administration when we wanted to hang out in there. We’d mostly go there for naps and to watch movies.
It honestly depends on the horse. Some are easy to break, train, and ride and others are not. This guy is only partially trained, so he gives me a bit of a hard time when I’m in the saddle. He just wants to do whatever lol.
Omg it was lol

It is! I also get riding lessons on a different horse when funds allow the luxury expense.
That’s an idea lol. The only birds that don’t like me are parrots. Ducks and chickens are fine
