Silverblade5 Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 My mom works as a nurse. Today, she told me someone's trying to file a false suit against her over an injection that happened over two years ago. I am very glad I don't know their addresses or phone numbers right now. If I did, I'd totally ask for help in trolling them for fun and profit!. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they are run ragged their entire shift caring for others. They deserve every penny they make. I'm sure that the place where your mom works will be able to beat the lawsuit. These fraudulent claims happen more than one would think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonelon Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Had a little meltdown today. Having escaped physical, psychological and emotional abuse from my ex, I have realised he is still trying to manipulate me. I've been running myself ragged so my 3 year old son can see his dad before/after work, rearranging my schedule at work so I can supervise the visits between them and now that tomorrow he is off and I'm working, he will have to wait until after I finish work to see his son, I've been inundated with abusive messages about keeping him from seeing his son and running away from the "family" he tried to create. I've been trying to avoid going down the legal route, but now it just seems unavoidable. Hence the meltdown... Honestly, the SE forum and audio books are the only thing keeping me centred. Rant over xx 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Slowswift Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Benefits of working part-time: there aren't any. So I had to work a full shift, even though I've a severely annoying cold. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do go down, it'll be another long and hard slog, speaking from experience with legal problems within my own family.

Steeldancer Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 DAMNATION. It's hard to hold in the pain when your ex posts her senior pictures and she's so beautiful and it still hurts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While the sarcastic part of me wants to tell you to stop caring, don't. Keep caring. So few high school seniors care these days. Caring hurts, but it's better than apathy. With time, the pain will decrease. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she had meant nothing then the pain would never be present to begin with. The more you love them the harder it is to let them go. Although I have not experienced the exact same thing I can understand it somewhat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penumbra Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 (edited) my internship drama is everywhere right now might as well vent here too... it's been weeks of this and I am so tired. There's a perfect internship for me. I went to visit and the team is lovely. I'd learn a lot but it would be difficult. Exactly the stuff I want to get into doing, have on my CV, cool projects, all that stuff. If they still want me that is. Problem is: it's located 5 hrs from my home, my live in partner, and my everything. Partner doesn't want to move with me for just an internship (understandably). We don't want to sell the home we have because partner lives there + might need it later + we're not the only owners. I'm trying to figure out if I can manage to rent a room in internship-city while still maintaining the place in home-city ... it's unpaid internship and the company can't pay relocation for students. R.I.P my heart. I don't want to have to say no to this place but it would be so hard to make it work! My beloved partner thinks I should do it, and "follow my dreams", but it feels crazy! So I worry about all the catastrope scenarios. I worry I might not be good enough and they would hate me if I went down anyway somehow and I'd just have 7 months of lonely hell. Thinking about all this still stresses me out so much I cant eat properly. I just want to solve this problem already so I can get back to reading and working and eating properly again. It's tuening the good days to bad ones just by being on my mind all the time >_< Edited October 26, 2017 by Penumbra 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mestiv Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 @Penumbra can you afford to live there without any source of income? Half a year is not that long, your relationship wouldn't be at risk IMO. The main problem here is the financial side of this all. If you have financial support of your partner and/or parents, then I say go for it. If you'd have to take a loan just to go on an internship, then it's too much. You're gonna practically give this company couple thousand dollars by working for them for free, don't add debts to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're gonna practically give this company couple thousand dollars by working for them for free, don't add debts to it. If we can find my partner someone to room with I could do it financially, but it would be a close call. I'm already running on a student loan, and if I can get relief from the rent up here I could pay for a room or something in the other place. My best friend (who really thinks I should do it) offered to move in in the room I leave behind but were not entirely sure it'd work out. I'm a little mad that the company wouldn't show me outright what projects I'd be on even though I went all the way down ... So much secrecy in this business. I think the living part will sort itself out somehow if I go. I'm mostly worried about being without my friends or contacts for 7 months ... I'm not super social, exactly. The travel down and back costs $100 roughly, so going back over weekends might be difficult. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caesura Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 My neighbours have been partying almost every night for the past 2 weeks. I'm impressed at how well their livers are holding up, but thoroughly sick of their loud, bassy music. I'm trying to study, and I was planning on an early night for once 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave passive aggressive notes taped to the door? Hire an alien army to kidnap them? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbird Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 @Caesura @Delightful I would recommend talking to the neighbors first and only calling the cops if they continue the obnoxious behavior. Depending on the neighbors, calling the cops as a first resort rather than a last resort can create resentment, but the neighbors, if they're decent people, might be more receptive to your complaints and requests if you come to them first. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caesura Posted October 29, 2017 Report Share Posted October 29, 2017 Drunk students, in the middle of the student flatting area - it's unsurprising, just a bit annoying. They usually don't go toooooo late, but it was a Saturday night... 4 hours ago, Delightful said: Hire an alien army to kidnap them?
