I know the first rule of overemployment is to not talk about it, but what would you do if a friend (genuine and not a co-worker or colleague) starts talking about their OE situation?

Do you share your own experience? Do you encourage them? Do you stay silent and politely listen?

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit).

I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc

Any tips for organizing a bedroom, closet, dresser & bathroom? My teen has IADHD, and low executive functioning. Her room looks like a land mine.

A therapist said to close her door if we don’t want to see it but it’s more than that. She needs this important life skill & I don’t know how to help. Easier to organize w/o her but that’s not a solution.
