Not a confession other than what would describe my last few relationships: what’s more important - chemistry or same values / lots in common?

Chemistry. But the right relationship has both.

Crossing fingers that relationship comes sooner than my ovaries doing the thing that ovaries do. 😭

Definitely both but, in the beginning, I think chemistry is more important. I've gone out on several dates with a guy who is a genuinely good guy and we have loads in common. The only downside is that we have no chemistry. In the beginning, you should be really excited to talk to and see the person you're dating and I'm just kind of "meh" about him. I keep going out with him because of the fact that he's a really good guy and I hate to let him go. I really hope something clicks soon because it's not fair to him.

I had my PHR back in early 2000, then made a career change to a paramedic (I know, right). I called SHRM and they said I'm eligible to test again even though I only currently have 1.5 yrs of HR.

I purchased the online study guide and it seems that HR has gone in a completely different direction - more operations related than employee relations etc.

Did anyone find this online training to be helpful? I test in July, so any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks - lauren

I just received an email to my personal account intended for someone else with the same name as me from their cousin wanting to reconnect. They said all these amazing things about this other person...

I (M) told a former colleague (F) that they hurt me by devaluing me followed with over 40+ days of silent treatment causing me to feel worthless, broken and better off not existing among other affects. She responded by gaslighting me saying; she never meant that, attempted to weaponize past life experiences, shift blame saying I’m hurting them for saying they hurt me. I replied that she is being emotionally abusive. I was quickly discarded continuing the abuse cycle.

1. I’m a pandemic hire at this new agency and I like it enough, but I feel SO detached from all these humans I’ve never interacted with IRL… like, I just don’t give a flying fuck about these team-building zoom calls. :(

2. My boyfriend and I often just go off cam / mute during the more useless meetings and have sex instead. I secretly hope everyone who is muted/cam off in meetings is getting some action.
