Rent increases are negotiable

If your rent significantly increases and you want to stay in your current unit, always try to negotiate a lower/more manageable rent increase before renewing or leaving.

Yes, you can do that. More often than not, it works.

Less than 5 minutes on Radio Garden and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

Radio Garden is a free interactive web application and mobile app that allows you to listen to thousands of live radio stations worldwide by rotating a 3D digital globe. Every green dot on the map represents a city or town with active, internet-connected broadcasts.

This is SOOOO awesome!!!

A desk canopy is worth it

If the lights at your job bother you and you can’t dim them any further or turn them off, consider ordering a desk canopy.

I assemble it and pack it away every time I work because I’m not the only one that uses this desk however after a few assembles it becomes muscle memory and takes about 2-3 minutes max. Worth it for an 8 hour shift.

Edit: I’m completely alone at work lol. It is a judgement free zone lol (there are much smaller ones if you don’t want to be side-eyed by your coworkers 😂)

Im interested in hearing about your experiences with requesting transfers

How long did you work at your first Allied post before you requested a transfer? (I know there is a 6 month minimum)

Did anyone here transfer out of state or to a different country?

Anyone miss their previous post after successfully transferring?

If you have worked at multiple posts for AU, feel free to comment a little bit about your experience as I am curious!

Imagine at *the end* you’re shown a pie chart of your life

Imagine how much time and energy we waste worrying and wondering what other people might be thinking about us. How they might be judging us, perceiving us, sizing us up based upon their own limiting assumptions and worldview. Its a lot easier and more enjoyable to just relax and be as you are. Once all is said and done, imagine getting a pie chart at the end, a graph, the full breakdown of how you spent your time, and you learn that 5% 10% 30% of your thoughts, behaviors, stemmed from a fear of what “others” might be thinking about their idea of you. It’s tragically comical when you look at it from that perspective.

[SELLING] couch

200, willing to negotiate. It’s too big for the space I moved into. I hardly used it at my old place too. I will miss her but it’s time for us to part ways.

If you haven't done your shadow work, go ahead and do that

A lot of people are unwell, unhappy, uneasy, because they do everything EXCEPT their shadow work. There is a collective undercurrent to things and I personally feel like what we're all feeling is a lot of folks who feel disrupted and are disrupting their communities bc they haven't done their shadow work......

10p-6a full time. Working this job for almost 4 months. It’s 7:30a now. I might have to do a double AND come back tonight….

I really hope they’re not playing mind games with me and trying to get me to quit. Not in this job market! This job in itself is one big mind game. It already feels like solitary confinement. I cannot leave unless I am relieved and it’s not looking like relief is coming for me annnnnnyyyyy time soon……

And I WILL be coming back tonight 😂 Holiday pay is double time.

30 [F4M] #Chicago overnight worker ISO someone to spend time with

Walks/picnics along the lakefront
Plays
Tennis
Dinner (or breakfast bc I’m nocturnal lol)
Willing to try new things with the right person

If you’re also a little awkward and a bit of a loner that would be great because I am too! Do you also work overnight? Another plus!

If you spend a little too much time alone and have thought “maybe I can meet someone through Reddit” then I might be the girl for you hahaha

DM me even if you just want to chat from time to time, no pressure
