Starting a union.

Im starting a union.

And yes, I am completely fucking serious.

Who would like to join me?

That includes everyone who has quit or is planning on it.

We don't deserve to be treated like shit for minimum wage.

Question for teachers!!

Hi, I work as an event coordinator at my local Michaels and this month we're doing an event with a raffle, the event is based around back to school and teacher appreciation!

As one of our things within the event (for lack of a better term) we are doing a raffle.

And also to choose the tote bag I use!

Struggling

I work part time at a craft store that pays state minimum wage. (12.77)

The higher-up are effin corrupt.

My sister works full time at an also corrupt place, but she gets paid upwards for 3,000 a month (that's biweekly pay for both of us)

Sibling pays rent, rent with gov assistance for us is 900ish.

I pay: water/sewer, conservice (that includes trash service), Internet, my phone, electric, and that's all I can think of.

I also have to buy my meds on a three month basis which is 64.30

Along with that, if sibling buys something for me (even if I told them not to) I have to repay them. Mind you I get paid between 500-700 dollars biweekly because my hours fluctuate a LOT.

If I buy something for them (even though my mother holds my bank card and rarely ever lets me use it AND I have on multiple occasions forgotten my own pin because of that) they do not pay me back.

I got paid last Wednesday. The amount of money in my account as of today is $4

Yup. $4

I have no savings, I literally don't tell them when I get tipped at work (event host part of job) so that I have money for myself. I have gotten over 100$ in tips these past few months.

I don't want to do this anymore

I don't want to live in a house where I am so so damn alone

Where I don't get listened to

Where I am the villain posing as the victim.

I never said I wasn't innocent, I made mistakes as a teenager and I don't know what the hell I'm doing as a baby adult.

I can't do this

Im the mistake of this family.

This just happened a few minutes ago

So I got my period yesterday, and mind you no smell or anything but when I'm on my period I get really fucking bad cramps, to the point that I can't walk, not to mention I'm also severely anemic.

So when I'm in the living room I sit on the couch next to my mother unless someone else isn't home then I sit in their seat (we have two armchairs) but when I do sit on the couch and I have pain in any part of my body I pull my knees up to my chest and put an ankle of my other knee.

I was sitting like that today, my n-mother decided to go through the perfume samples she's gotten throughout the year and decided to spray one directly between my legs, literally where my crotch is, TEN times. I didn't realize at first I just heard spraying and smelled the Parfume. Then saw where she was spraying it.

I feel very violated and her and my siblings were all laughing about it.

Im in my room now with my door shut.

I was wearing my only clean pair of sweatpants, and I only have three pairs of sweatpants.

I was going to wear them tomorrow too as I was going to clean my room and because I'm on my period.

I feel very grossed out and uncomfortable and honestly I can't find the word for how I actually feel.

Edit: earlier today she told me I had to do the dishes, which fine idgaf, I'm a little annoyed because she said I had to do the dishes and the way she got annoyed when I didn't really say anything but "okay" I did sound a little annoyed but I'm in extreme pain and everything. She then accidentally messages me and says "is it fair that they do the dishes?" Which was meant for my Sister. I messaged her and was like "I'm pretty sure you sent this to the wrong person." And "and I was going to do them anyways." In which she responds by laughing her ass off and yelling at me "playfully" saying "well am I right enter my name huh? Is it fair???" And laughing about it with my siblings.

I really hate living here, and I'm struggling not to hurt myself right now, I do know that I won't hurt myself and if it gets really bad with those thoughts I'll message a few of my friends that will talk with me until I feel safer. I just feel really disgusted and gross.

Question about old mats!!

I'm talking currently to and old framer and he was telling me and my coworker about an old mat that they discontinued and I was wondering if anyone has a photo of a few of the mats!

One was a dragon scale looking one that was black, and the other one is a brown furry one!

I would love to see all of the older mats that we no longer carry!

Getting out

I made a post maybe a month ago, I have a couple of friends helping me get out, and I know a basic list of things I need to bring with me, but I'm not sure about what else to take with me.

I know I need my documents, bank statements and any other paperwork pertaining to me.

I know clothes and I know the few comfort items I'm taking. (My stuffie Ryu and a few of my blankets and my books/dvds)

I'm struggling though because I don't know what all I should focus on bringing with me, we have a plan to get the stuff out like my bed and stuff. But I don't know what to leave and what to take. I know I can't take all of it as that would take longer than the short timeframe I have to move it all.

What all I keep and what do I leave?

I just used rar Union business for the fun of it I have no clue what it means.

I think this is my first post here, I read around when things pop up for me to look at.

I'm poly and in a happy poly relationship but I realized that I understand none of the terms you all are using.

Please explain the flair I used AND the terms (please and thank you)

Changed additional guests to 5

So I don't know if this is for just my district or everyone else's too. I just now found out that they changed the extra participants from four to five. I don't have a seat for a 13th kid. What do I do??

TABLE SPACE IS THE PROBLEM NOT CHAIRS
