Was free with signup for the card so doesn’t really matter but im more annoyed there’s likely an employee helping themselves to gifts meant for customers
I’m in IL, this was my 9th year filing here. I filed on time before the deadline, both state and federal were approved.
Started the waiting game to get my return and in the last week of April I received a letter from the IRS saying I’d need to verify my identity before they could finish processing my return.
I did this, everything was verified. I guess my question is how long should I wait to call and check on my return? The site said it could take up to 9 weeks to finish processing which would mean I’m not seeing my return till late June/July, which is annoying to say the least.
Has anyone else ever had to do this? How long did it take for you to receive your return after? Anything I Can do to expedite?
Pretty much what the post says, I sometimes go to bars by myself (F25) and sometimes when I do people (usually guys) come up and try to strike up a convo.
Respectfully, I just usually don’t feel like doing this. Im already quite shy so having to introduce myself and maintain convo with a stranger already makes me anxious. But also when I go out it’s with the intent to just dance. I don’t feel like have to lean into another person and shout over the music to try to talk
Usually when people come up to me either 1) they can tell I don’t wanna talk and just leave. This is ideal but I usually feel a bit guilty about it. 2) I try to maintain a bit of conversation and then come up with an excuse to go to the bathroom and wait there a few minutes hoping they’ll move on from the area I was at or 3) I just end up deciding to leave.
How do I politely let people know I don’t really feel like talking? I dont wanna hurt anyone’s feelings I know we’re all there to have a good time.
I’m mainly wondering if it’s normal for your mind to wander a bit or if I should try to snap out of it and focus more.
Ive always struggled silencing my thoughts since my mind wanders a lot, and I have a very vivid imagination. I do make it a point to center myself, connect my energy to my client, and while I’m working on them I’m keeping in mind their focus areas and paying attention to palpation.( I have had 1 instance where I got too distracted and the massage suffered for it so since then I try to reel myself in)
But my mind still wanders quite a bit while I’m working on people. This makes me feel a bit guilty at times because I wonder if the quality is affected by me not being fully focused. But to be honest that also feels kind of impossible. Even when I try to “lock in” eventually my mind just starts to wander again. Not to mention frankly the thought of thinking of ONLY massage for up to 4 hours each day, 5 days a week seems a little draining.
