Yall, I’m 36 and prob the oldest person on my team at work. Our manager and the other guys go out for breakfast apparently even though the other guys secretly hate the manager (like in his 50s) lol. Everyone else is like 28,23,34,19.

The ages matter to me bc I don’t know if it’s bc I’m getting older and TRULY know what matters in the workplace but like literally no. Why would I spend my unpaid time with our dick manager. I’m also vegan (it’s been like 20 years) and don’t feel like explaining it to them.

Do you all kind of seclude yourself from the guys? I totally understand that like I’m missing out on some kiss ass points but I don’t know… I’d rather I guess go home than spend time trying to dodge their HR violating jokes.

I interact with them one on one but not as a group.

I work in safety SAFETY where we sit and hope nothing happens. I bring my book, knitting, podcasts, etc. I sit in my little scissor lift and vibe on my SSRIs lol. I got for walks during down time and get my fresh air during lunch.

I noticed that my group of safety workers gather around complaining about anything and everything.

Complain about traffic, not having anything to do, their wives, money, gas. God damn!

I love working in safety because there’s a ton to learn and I like seeing the workers do their thing.

The actual construction workers don’t even complain this much, and honestly if they did I’d be like “fair, you’re the one in the confined space lol”. It’s the MOST cringe thing ever when your coworkers yell “yall know when yall are going to be done?!” From a LAWN CHAIR.

K I hate to bring negativity into the group but I just needed to vent lol

I cant really explain this feeling, like when Im depressed, I ask if It feels chemical, or situational. Chemical meaning like "I need to get my psych on the line asap" or situational "I need to clean my dishes and take the trash out". This feels chemical. I think outside of that the feelings are relief, anxiety, that crying feeling when you go through something extremely hard, joy?

I have no day off (literally). Im in a position where Im needed 'just in case' and they fired someone recently, so I cant get a day off because 'we need someone there just in case'. Ive been needing a therapy appointment, but Ive been feeling so heavy that I wont even try to have the appointment here because I need to have a GOOD cry with a professional. lol

Ive also been needing to go to the doctor to get somethings checked out, and the insurance there looks so much better. My current deductible is $3k... so I basically have no insurance lol

Love : The quick item select
Getting used to : Throwing rocks to clams
Disappointed : I REALLY wish it was easier to claim all the achievements, instead of doing them one by one. Also wished that lists still didn’t start at the top when you finish with one selection.

Part of my role involves people scanning a QR code and filling out a form.

Its a typical form we all see including things like red asterisk (required information), uploading a picture of themselves, clicking go to next steps, hitting submit. The normal stuff.

I try to help by showing folks how to change the language if needed. I say "If theres a red star the information is required / no red star, not required".

Why did I have to help a like 20 year old scan a QR code. He held his phone over it, the BRIGHT yellow link popped up, he looks at me dead in my face and goes "k now what I do".

In therapy (lol) I talk about how Ive def had to teach myself how to do a lot of things because my parents just clocked out early lol So I know I can get frustrated when people have issues with things like this BUT COME ON DUDE.

Watching people struggle to take a picture of themselves and upload it. I just.... Like how did they get the job if they couldnt fill out the application? Do people just do these things for them? Im 36, so I grew up when tech was DOG SHIT so problem solving tech stuff is kind of built in, but god damn dude. Im not asking them to use excel, just please fill out the form and hit next.

I don't know anymore. Im broken yall 😞

Hi class,

Im working towards my permit, and I can tell Im struggling to remember all the penalties.

Ex) Whats the penalty for a drivers 3rd out of service punishment?

I of course know that theres always a chance, but have yall encountered these on the written tests? Ill of course try... but you know.

Thank you!

Hi everyone! My shop is Folklore Woodworking

After a LOT and I mean a LOT of testing, iteration, learning, and surprisingly no lost fingers I finally opened up my woodworking shop. I would love some critique. This is my second shop; my other is pretty successful, but I wanted to make something that felt a bit more personal.

About: I sell handmade and painted wooden artwork thats inspired by folklore, fables, and nature. I design the art, I cut the wood down, I paint it, and I put it together.

Pros: I love the art making process, and I feel I would be making stuff like this regardless of the shop. I feel very determined to make this work. I feel like I have an innate urge to create art. People love seeing the process of woodworking.

Things I would like to know:

1. Should I just make one of each or make multiples of the items.
2. Hows the branding
3. Hows the pictures
4. Vibes good? lol

Howdy

TLDR: Has self help lead you down the path of witchy stuff in terms of manifesting your power?

The past few years have been ROUGH to say the least, and the way I usually get through stuff is learning. That lead my down the path of self help. This includes mostly books, but theres also videos. The books include themes related to:

• life transitions - Life is in the Transitions
• failure - The Queer Art of Failure
• art - The Creative Act
• family and relationship trauma - The Body Keeps the Score
• sexuality - Ace

Ive had a lot of positive motion behind these books and I feel like its lead me down this path of putting more action behind the ~spells~ the books discuss. Im a potential new witchy person and I wonder if anyone has gone down this path of self help to witchy stuff.
