Sometimes you don't know what your life experience will help you with, when someone else has a problem.
My daughter was laid off and I took time off to help her revise her resume and LinkedIn profile to pivot from being a recent college grad to a lean and hungry professional.
I hope this works for her.
She's impressed by my resume writing skills.

I'm concerned.
Is it wrong for me to immediately wonder how he will be able to exfoliate, wash himself and tend to his call of nature needs with a piece of the road attached to his hand?
Or does he have a care giver lined up for this work, now that he's made useless his appendage.
@6e4b1411 drunk women in the bar bathroom griping about their man at the bar.
They are insufferable.
I'm out on a date with my SHH and I don't need to hear two women whine about how bad their dates are.
Just stay home with your Hallmark, ice cream and your wine.
Let the functional couples have a nice night out.

Yah, it took me an hour and a half to get my labs drawn and that wasn't because the tech wasn't professional or quick.
It was all that woman fidgeting.
I went back to my office and was a half hour late to a meeting because of her shenanigans.
She clearly must not have things to do or places to go.
If she was really freaked out, the plan would be to shut up, get stuck and be gone. Not sit and wind yourself and everyone else up.
I'm getting a lab drawn & a fully grown woman is dictating how she hates needles & to not let her know "it's coming" & to not touch her etc. Nothing seems to be wrong except she's an attention grabber.
"It's the thought of it being inside my arm."
-I hate the needle because the pinch, but whatever.
She's taking forever going point by point.
Woman, there are ten of us that have fasted & we would like to be done without your narrative. She's going on about her issues for going on 45min now.
@c215902f I worry that you're right but I also hope that you're wrong.
Wouldn't it be cool if people rejected, enmasse, modernity's progressive ways and went back to classical liberalism and conservatism?
Where there was a MIDDLE and not this slide into the abyss of swinging from one extreme to the next.
This is exhausting.

For those who are IQ challenged, there should be a warning on all these "social" platforms.
Something to the effect that it is fictional, opinion based manipulation that has a known and metric oriented negative impact on an individual's psyche, behavior and financial standing in society, and therefore should be used similar to a casino - rarely and with caution.

My kitty (now long reposed) would catch hummingbirds and bring them into the house for our enjoyment. But in reality, it only led to our terror.
Mr. Chester was a humourous and stealthy cat.
@449841af I was pretty happy when they also noted I dropped 20 pounds.
I do my best to not eat sugar or carbs.
I have more to lose but it'll be slow and steady -no ozempic for me!
Sending an F-cancer- for all who need it.
I just had my MRI to check on if I'm cancer free and get to take another trip around the sun, word is, I'm good to go! ♥ï¸ðŸŽ‰
Calling all FEMA Region VI Gitmo Nation slaves-
9/30, 2pm CT, Chicken and Pickle - join the No Agenda Meetup.
Let's be competitive & not share secrets but still have a few laughs.
If you're married or have a girlfriend, please bring them, the last few times there were too many dudes and not enough dudettes!
@8dcbf60c work in a pod, live in a pod, eat bugs form a pod, die in a pod.
But hey, no reason to have a wife and family, you have spending money for the bar and the restaurants.
The joy of life is complete.

2023 had taught that you can be incarcerated for years for a crime you were not in attendance for and you can be accused of another crime by not saying anything at all.
I'm glad we have cleared up any confusion.
Now remember and you'll be well.
@7502a322 So very true.
If we don't pull together, we will end up in the news for the wrong reasons, I always half joke with my family about that.
@d646aae5
@7502a322 I know when I was sick and feeling grumplestilskin about it all, I remembered the wedding vow, "in sickness and in health."
People always think this is about them being taken care of when they're sick, but it is also about them STILL working through their sickness and suffering. Because that's what the savior did. (Not trying to get preachy but when I'm down and I've invited myself to a pity party, it helps me when I remember that)
@d646aae5
@d646aae5 yep, gotta walk it off.
I get sick and have to do the same.
No breaks, keep earning and keep maintaining the house, feeding everyone and making sure everything is tip top.
@7502a322
@669563d8 why, I'm so surprised! My LAWD, what is the problem? They didn't think it was an issue when it was the southern states and CA impacted but now it's a problem when the circus comes to town.
@de63a1b3 I'd wager he was hoping you'd sizzle and go up like a puff of smoke, at the door the minute you saw his amazing graphic T from Old Navy, like a vampire would.
I wonder if his wife was hiding somewhere recording that exchange for tictoc.
