Damn, are anyone else's kids eating you out of house and home now that they're home all day? I don't know how my kids survived the school day without having a snack every hour on the hour. I want to limit the amount of snacks and junk we keep in the house but my husband thinks that's unnecessary, and the kids should eat when they're hungry. I don't want the kids to be hungry, of course, but I also don't want them eating all day.

They need to go outside and play if they’re old enough. And tell them only to come back at lunch and dinner time lol Or send them to day camp or sleep away camp if they’re old enough.

I had snacks readily available at all times. Mine could eat they want, when they wanted. Junk food and healthy stuff. I could always tell which of their friends had food restrictions because they would come over and eat non-stop. Give them all they want and they will self regulate unless there’s a real issue.

Any advice on how to tastefully tell your manager that you no longer want to be a charge nurse anymore? For us being in charge is having full assignment 3p-7p & being responsible for assigning pts , communicating w/ supervisor about various issues, making the assignment for next shift, and a mini report about each pt for the next charge. On the weekends, same responsibilities but 7a-7p. We don't get any additional pay for being in charge and I'm sick of the added responsibility and stress of it.

“Job hopper” and “quiet quitting” are all schemes made up by boomers to make you think everything is the employees fault. When in reality people are just getting out of bad situations.

Except our generation will just leave amid we’re being mistreated, not complain for 35 years making 50k and 0 advancement.

Hi fishes,

And is there a possibility that they can reject my profile at this stage?

Need advice and help.

I have realized I grew up in a household where my dad did not treat my mom as an equal. He belittles her, is rude and convinced his way is the only way.

It is painful to say, but some of this shows up in me and in my relationship. I am starting to catch myself, and it to me seems to be more of a reaction than anythjng that is ever intentional.

Wondering if anyone has dealt with something similar, and any success in making changes besides therapy. Cont. in comments

Is it irrational for me to get an “ick” for this?

I went on a “date” recently. I paid for the tab as they were going to the bathroom. As we were leaving they said “thanks for lunch” — I was hoping they’d at least ask to Venmo me half as a kind gesture. Following lunch we grabbed dessert. I was hoping they’d offer to cover dessert since I covered lunch but it didn’t happen.

I am fine w/ paying but I was hoping the gesture would at least be presented… am I crazy?
