I developed a fingernail infection after a nail salon visit. It has led to multiple rounds of antibiotics, side effects requiring additional medication, and surgery to remove the nail. My cultures came back positive for two different bacteria.
I’ve been on antibiotics for around 40 days, and now I’m taking Amoxicillin 875 mg twice daily and Cephalexin 500 mg three times daily. I’m already experiencing side effects and am worried about what this much antibiotic use could do to my body.
Has anyone experienced something similar? How concerned should I be about the side effects of prolonged antibiotic use, especially taking two antibiotics at once?
I’m in my mid 30s, if it helps.

I’ve always struggled with focusing, clutter, sensory sensitivity, sex, an endless mind, rushing through everything, and not being able to relax. I can also be reactive at times, although I’ve worked on that a lot. The list goes on. I was diagnosed with a pretty severe case of ADHD, and I really want to understand exactly what type I have and how it affects me.
I’m looking for deeper resources, like a good website or assessment, podcasts, books, or videos that can help me understand my ADHD and learn how to cope with it better.

I’m having a resident event at an apartment complex I manage. Sam’s Club is convenient & affordable, considering the budget I was given. What are your honest thoughts on this pizza?

I’m brand new to property management and was hired the same day as my interview. I knew I was walking into a property that needed work, but I had NO idea how bad it actually was.

I manage a 90+ unit apartment complex, plus another 30-unit property. Both are in what is considered one of the more unsafe areas of my town.

The main property is only about 40% occupied because so many of the units are supposedly unlivable. The units that are considered “okay” still have major issues. I’m seeing mold concerns throughout the property, broken appliances/fixtures, water intrusion, flooding in the parking lot, and numerous other maintenance and safety issues.

And I’ve only been here TWO DAYS.

The training was literally about 30 minutes. I have no real manual or organized onboarding process, and I’m being expected to figure things out as I go even though they claim I have support (my support knows nothing). I don’t even know the company’s full process for something as basic as processing a new tenant application yet because I was essentially thrown into the position.

Today, the maintenance technician quit.

From what I understand, he was overwhelmed by the condition of the property, the amount of work needed, and the lack of organization/management support. Now I’m sitting here thinking.. What exactly am I supposed to do?

I’m already seeing enough safety and habitability concerns that I’m becoming worried about liability and my professional reputation. I don’t want my name associated with a property where residents are living in unsafe conditions, especially if management knows about the problems and isn’t taking appropriate action.

I also feel like I was hired because they desperately needed someone to take over, rather than because there was an actual plan to train and support me.

I’m not afraid of hard work. I actually like organizing things and fixing broken processes. But there is a HUGE difference between taking over a property that needs organization and being handed a property with widespread maintenance/habitability problems, virtually no training, no maintenance technician, and very little support.

I’m seriously considering giving my two weeks’ notice, but part of me wonders if I’m overreacting because I’m new to PM and maybe this is just what property management can look like.

Experienced PMs: what would you do in this situation? Would you stay and try to turn it around, or would you walk away? And how would you protect yourself professionally/liability-wise while dealing with these conditions?

EDIT: I do want to mention the complex is getting worked on, but it seems that only the ones that are not occupied and in the worst conditions.

Hello, I’m a bilingual former admin assistant and was just offered a PM job. This is in FL, multifamily (90) low income and currently working on remodeling. Base pay is 60k plus bonuses. Is this good for beginners? I also welcome any advice! Thank you.

Mi abuela tiene una colmena de abejas dentro del techo de su casa desde hace aproximadamente 3 años. Nos gustaría retirarla de forma segura y, de ser posible, sin matar a las abejas.
¿Alguien conoce algún apicultor, rescatista de abejas o servicio de reubicación de abejas en Mexicali que pueda ayudar?
También agradecería cualquier recomendación o experiencia que hayan tenido con este tipo de situaciones.

My teen is extremely smart. He skipped a grade and honestly probably could’ve skipped more. He’s always been involved in sports and clubs, but now that he’s in high school he’s decided he doesn’t want to do sports anymore or participate in clubs. He’s been invited to several honor clubs because he’s in all honors classes, but he declined those too.
I think part of it may be a lack of motivation. I don’t want to label him as lazy, but he’s become very inactive compared to how he used to be. At what point do you keep encouraging/pushing your teen to stay involved versus letting them make their own choices? I don’t want to push too hard, but I also don’t want to look back and feel like I didn’t do enough as a parent. Where’s the line?

Seems intriguing! Has anyone been? Looking for reviews
