Anyone here got addicted to weed only after the age of 30?

I feel so ashamed and exceptional here and in NA/AA/MA meetings I went to in the past.

When I turned 31, I started to smoke THC vapes my co-worker introduced me to.

I was freshly married, still working on my degree, was relatively happy and after one puff I was hooked and couldn't let go.

Up until that point, I never used any type of drugs and was only drinking socially.

Now after 8 years of heavy use I'm clean for 11 months. But it took to me 2-3 years to get here. When i went to AA meetings and from what i read here, people start smoking before their 20s... so im thinking "you were a kid, you didn't know any better!"

So what's my excuse getting so highly addicted when I'm 31? I felt very ashamed telling my story.

Anyone else got addicted later in life?

Coworker keeps undermining my role in front of the team. What to do?

What's the best course of action when a coworker say that your role is useless in front of manager?

We're all work from home. I'm in the company for 1.5 years in a team of 6 people. We're in middle of reorganizing our department and switching managers. Lately, during meetings with new manager, he's been making snarky comments about my role saying that my role is "redundant" or joking that I "don't have anything to do." We're currently in the middle of a team transition, so responsibilities are still being worked out with management, but I still find his comments embarrassing and unprofessional.

I send him a DM asking him to stop talking about my role during meetings. He hasn't responded.

Now I'm afraid I create more conflict or have it backfire.

What would you do in this situation? Was it ok to ask him to stop doing it?

Selling our house for 620k, 51 DOM, above 30 showings, only one shaky offer - when to do a price decrease?

For the love of god, please HELP 🙏🏻 our house is not in the greatest location I guess.

Its in a great shape. No issues during inspection with current buyers. They are indecisive. And still haven't sign the contract.

We're at loss here. I think the biggest downside in our house is that its too close to the neighbors and it doesn't have a garage.

Bottom line, I know we should go ahead with a price decrease. How low should we go?

4 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, 0.25 acres and a big basement.

Please 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 give some advice!!!

Thank you everyone for the help. I just got another offer right before the price decrease. If it wouldn't work I'll definitely do a significant price decrease. Appreciate it!

Westchester homeowners: Have you removed underground oil tanks? Was there contamination, and what did the cleanup cost?

Please help!!! During oil tank inspection, buyers found 2 UNDERGROUD OIL TANKS. Not one, but two! Just our luck 😰 we didn't know about it when we bought the house. We didn't know that underground oil tanks existed. Stupid, i know i know....

The house was build in 1963. Buyers wants us to take care of and take it out. Obviously we must do it as no buyer will want to take the risk and do it by themselves, even with a large credit.

I hear that contamination cleanup can go up to 300k and I'm in extrem painful misery and pain because of all the horror stories I read online.

Please for the love of god, if you ever needed to deal with it, how much did you eventually needed to pay?

I can't find any data about it.

We think it was decommissioned just by the look of that (from above) but I'm aware that I can never know if it was decommissioned properly until we look at the bottom and test the soil.

If you have any advice, please help!

Inspection found 2 buried oil tanks and seller offer 20k credit but wouldn't take care of it, should we agree?

The house is perfect for us, but we found 2 buried oil tanks that didn't have any documentation. The seller didn't know about them. One is in the back yard and one in the side of the house.

​

At first, we just did the inspection to find any anomalies and then after we found 2 underground anomalies we asked the seller to check what it is and if its oil tanks, so they should remove them and do soil test for contamination.

​

The seller checked and did saw 2 oil tanks. They offer 20k credit for it as the estimated might be 10k to remove each of the tanks.

​

Should we agree?

Anyone else set tons of reminders and snooze each of them 17 times?

I hate my reminders. The reminders I set to myself for bloody everything. I even set reminders to wash my hair (don't judge! Mother of 2 tiny people). I set reminders to do laundry, go to the store, make appointments, etc... (im also working full time, so its tons of reminders) .

Thing is, I snooze them, each and every one of them so many times that I find myself getting angry at my own phone! I'm ALWAYS in middle of something else! It's like never ending reminders! And I even finding myself putting reminders to put a reminder! 😵‍💫

Tell me I'm not the only one
