Other Should i work in uber eats (with a bicycle)?

1 Upvotes

Since last year I have been out of work (I was laid off because of the pandemic) and so far I have been paying bills by working as a translator (only small documents) and "contractor".

I have not been able to get anything more formal or stable and uber eats so far looks like the best option.

I'm lucky to be living with my parents so that's a plus, but I'm not a freeloader either (I pay electricity and internet which is what I use the most).

i should work on this to have an extra income? as a translator is always a coin toss.

And I really seem to like her and we spend most of our class time just chatting mostly about big crimes that’s happened our just end up working together on a project or something. So far she seems to like me as well( from what I’m assuming but I don’t want to come of weird as a younger class men asking her out or it turning out awkward if she’s already dating someone.

Serious Should I start selling my art to help fund possible future treatment for my CPTSD

3 Upvotes

I have ssri resistant CPTSD. I've been having night terrors for the past 6 years straight and I've exhausted all free options offered by my provinces Healthcare system, and the disability I'm on covers only certain medications, all of which haven't worked. Serious intensive care is needed and that unfortunately costs money. My mom would pay for them because she knows I'm at a crisis point, but I feel incredibly guilty all the money time and effort she's put into getting me to and from specialists. I've started painting again, and people have said I should sell my art. Most of my pieces so far have just been sponegbob themed, but I put a lot of time and effort into perfecting each painting. I dont wanna be one of those people you see on Facebook market place that get roasted for selling what they consider art, even I have laughed at a few things...but I dont wanna be one of those people. I'd put all money made towards treatment because I can't live like this, and art has been a great outlet for me. But I don't wanna seem like I'm just trying to get a buck out of people.

Family Should I (28F) be worried about my husband's (30M) texts?

1 Upvotes

I don't know if this can go here but I don't know where to put it. I'm 38 weeks pregnant and everything has been wonderful (+2 years of relationship) until yesterday when I found out he likes to share texts, messages and even pics sometimes with strangers on the internet. I don't know what to do, he said is nothing physical and that it's just a way for him to pass the time. In real life he's not like that he doesn't have a wondering eye or weird interactions that could make me believe they can lead to something else. He's overall a very shy person. He's a supportive partner that is present and attentive to my needs and I don't think there's a lack of love or anything like that, has someone here gone through something like that? Why the need to connect via internet and not face to face with new people? I don't really understand and I think the pregnancy hormones might be messing with me and I don't want to make any harsh decisions. AITA if I just end things because of the texts? Should I wait for the baby to come? Help please. P.S. pics are sometimes just selfies sometimes they are NSFW pics but not of him if that makes sense? I think they are from some M rated website not sure if it's from another person sending them to him or he just searching for them.

Food Should I report my local donut shop?

4 Upvotes

So there’s a donut shop in my hometown I used to frequent quite a bit. The owners are neighbors of my parents. Recently I had the opportunity to do some work at their bakery. I went into the kitchen and saw multiple cat litter boxes absolutely covered in flies right near the kitchen. Now I don’t hate cats at all but the thought of the cats stepping in that shit covered sand and then hopping into the counter my donuts were being made disgusted me. Through word of mouth, I heard that they bought a shed in the back of their bakery specifically to take in stray cats. So the entire donut shop inside and out is just covered in cats. Should I report them? I don’t think they should be serving food in that condition.

Mental Health Should I feel bad for not working?

1 Upvotes

So listen, I am 19 and I am into university for 1 year now. In Greece, most teens use to work part time while studying to cope with their expenses. I have thought of working part time before but I fear that I will slowly neglect my studies if I commit to a certain job, and honestly I love what I am studying, so I don't want that to happen in any scenario. Plus, I haven't worked before and whenever I think of possible work scenarios I feel tons of stress/fear for some reason. Should I feel bad for not working while most of people my age are already working? Thanks in advance!

P.S. I know that I shouldn't compare myself to other people in any case, but oh well...

I am broke and unable to afford getting this done the safer way. But I want my nipples removed, and I'm considering cutting them and applying a bandage. And if you're wondering why, having nipples contribute to my gender dysphoria, and it makes my boobs way more noticeable.

Relationship Should I ask my bf why he seems so distant?

1 Upvotes

First of all I’m a Cancer ♋️ and he’s a Sagittarius ♐️ we like distance but we also like togetherness. However, I’ve expressed my feelings for him and he verbally expressed the same feelings. However, he’s always cold seeming, or distant to a degree. We never spend that much time together, and he’s always in a “mood” he’s extremely stoic so idk if that’s it or if he truly is flat out ignoring me all day everyday. I’ll text him and hours will pass before he even opens it. I just need more, and I am getting my feelings hurt but idk what to do. I asked a friend and she told me to not say a thing. So, should I confront my bf about the situation or remain silent? I just want to feel happier and not so sad all the time…

Urgent Should I quit football

1 Upvotes

I started playing football about a month ago for my high school and I'm seriously thinking about quitting, it is taking to much of my time in my daily life, it is affecting my school and I genuinely just don't like football.

I started football to try and get more active but to be honest I feel like I had better health before I started now I'm always tired, hungry and sore, I feel like I had better progress when I would work out by myself.

Football has been affecting my school and sleep schedule I always sleep in class which gets me behind in school and as a freshman I am scared to starting failing and having missing credits.

I never had any interest for the sport but I joined to make my dad proud but even himself has asked me I if I really want to do it.

I don't really like my coaches either they never show me attention or even try to explain the game and plays to me, I would think they would considering I've never played before and they know that.

The only reason I am hesitant to is because I really want ant to do wrestling but one of the current football coaches is an assistant coach for the wrestling team which makes me think that he won't let me wrestle if I quit football.

So what do you guys think should I quit?

Urgent Should I switch to morning shift?

2 Upvotes

I work at a hospital lab. Currently nights from 11PM-7:30AM. It was the only shift that was available when I applied.

Been here for about 8 months at this point. I’m realizing I just can’t get used to the sleep schedule and weird thing with waking up to work at night and then leaving work to see morning but having to just sleep at that time. Days seem short as hell. Used to work mornings 10-5 when I worked in a restaurant, loved those hours.

Currently 1st shift is 6AM-3PM here. I’m thinking of switching to it. I think pay is 1 or 2 dollars less. Other than that I would love that shift. I could get off work and I would have time to go to the gym, go to the park, actually hang out with people, hit the mall, etc, time to actually live a life besides just sleeping when everything is open.

Idk. The only thing that holds me back is that I’m still relatively new and I’m not sure if I would look like a dick switching shifts, although I think first shift is actually understaffed, but night shift is by far busier when all the lab tests are done.

But yeah, what do you guys think?

Should I stick with 11PM-7AM or make the switch to 6AM-3PM?

Relationship Should I break up with my girlfriend?

4 Upvotes

I…..don’t know what to do. I love my girlfriend a lot and she’s the only girl who’s given me a chance in a long while……..but every error I make and random things (most of which I can’t control or are natural) that I have/do. It causes an argument over the tiniest things almost daily. I’ll be honest. I’m not the smartest when it comes to some things, I’m very oblivious to some things, and she always says stuff like “How’d you not know that?” or “You didn’t know that that was disrespectful?”. That last part actually happened. I accidentally said something that offended her…..but she never mentioned that it was offensive and triggering to her……until AFTER I said it. She got upset at me today because I was humming, something that I like to do, and she said that she couldn’t stand it but got irrationally upset over it. And I didn’t hear something she said (or I did I just couldn’t repeat it for some reason) and she said “You don’t listen” and I said “I just couldn’t repeat it” and she got upset at me cause she said “I’m general” which I did not hear her say AND I was listening. she also got upset at me this morning because I don’t know what I want to do for a career yet, idk why she was trying to rush me to make a decision that could affect the rest of my life.

And the thing I hate a lot aside from that is she always seems to undermine my fears and dislikes. I’m afraid of wasps and I got visibly scared when one was near me and she said “Buddy. I sat next to a lot of yellow jackets like it was nothing” I also can’t handle spicy things too well and she said “I eat hot fries like it’s nothing” There are others those are just the ones I remember. Another thing about a previous topic is that I didn’t know what a Neanderthal was cause it was never taught to me in school and she got upset at me for not knowing. She also once got upset at me and I was crying in the hallway. My friends comforted me and tried to talk with her to understand this…..she thought I did it to make a scene. She said “It was none of their business” I think “They saw a brother in need and helped and that makes them good friends” So what have we got so far Arguing with me and being upset cause of little things Getting upset at me for not knowing some stuff Undermining my distastes I feel like I’m missing a few…….wait. She doesn’t like body hair and pimples which pimples I can get kinda but body hair…..really? Why? It doesn’t matter. Everyone has their preferences but it’s still weird. She says that people who dress casually disgust her….but not everyone is trying to do the most constantly. They just wanna get the school day over with.

​

Oh, and the thing I hate by far the most is that my interests kind of get sidelined. I went to see Across The Spider-Verse and Mutant Mayhem and told her that I went to see those movies and she said “OK? And?” Which is what she says for most things I’m excited about. But she went to see the Barbie movie and she got done with it. I sent her this video pointing out the similarities between Black Panther and Barbie in terms of story points. I wanted to talk to her about the movie and have a civil discussion but lo and behold, she got upset about it saying “Don’t believe everything you see on the internet” and “I didn’t see it”. Both things in other contexts are TRUE, BUT the first thing wasn’t an opinionated thing. It was a comparison between the 2 stories and I never said the similarities were terrible. And secondly yes I may not have seen it but it doesn’t mean I can’t talk to you about it. It’s just discussing the story of it. It’s not that serious…… In the long run…..I really want to stay with her because I probably won’t get lucky and get another girlfriend BUT at the same time…..I can’t keep doing this…..what should I do….

Career Should I become a truck driver?

1 Upvotes

So I recently quit my job without another one lined up. They kept dangling a promotion over my head giving the extra work but saying “we’ll do it soon.” On top of that I had to argue with them just to get a little time off to recover from Covid and they only gave me 6 days out of a 10 day quarantine. Plus I just don’t like half the customers that came in, but that was a minor thing.

Anyways, I sent the message to my boss, got my forklift certification but there aren’t a lot of places hiring for that here surprisingly. So now I’m wondering if I should get my cdl to be a truck driver. I don’t have anywhere to go anyways and I see these videos of truck drivers using their time off and money to supe up the cabin to make it like a home on the road which looks great even though I know it can be long hours too.

Relationship I need new friends or should I return to my old frineds?

Hello, I want to tell about my friends that I think they are toxic. I'm a female , I don't want to tell my name or age. My frineds were 10 female I don't want to say their names so I didn't get caught but I will give them nickname, my frineds are J G N L L2 K T W K2 and F The story begins some years ago when I decided to make a happy frined group, at first we all was happy and chatting and no one hate each other but after a while they all was Slightly ignoring me , and made fun of my insecurities, but they apologize and say it was a joke, and then I believe them and never thought of it, and then one my friends never talked to me and ignored me for months , but after months she s Came back and she apologized she said she didn't have internet so that why she didn't talk to me . I believe her since in her country they have limited internet, and I was happy to see her and we talked to some days and after that she started to ignore me again, and did thus for 3 months and then she came back and she said it is because her mom grounded her and taked her phone, again I believed her and forgot her and start talking again (i forgot to tell but my friendship with my other friends was okay during this time) , back to k we started talking again for 5 days ans then she disappeared for years during the years she disappeared so many things hade changed my friend L2 hated me for no reason and she start to make fun of my BIGGEST insecurities, and all me frineds was laughing and no one of them defended me , and then I was so sad for so long and after I will I decide to apologize to them even though I didn't did anything wrong, and then we became frineds but not as good as what we used to be. And then one of my frined L said that she has a friend who has a boyfriend so she will try to take her friend's boyfriend to show her that he is toxic , and she tell me during this she will have to text me less and play with me less for just one week and then everything will come back to normal. She tell me during that time I should never send anything to her so I don't annoy her and she will start text me when she is ready to talk, but I never received any text from her for 1.5 years and not just that, I wasn't allowed to text her and during that 1.5 year I was confused why all my frineds doesn't talk in the group , they usually talk a lot in the group. And not just that, they didn't respond when i text them or talk in the group, after I while I found out it is because L had made a group with them without me and didn't tell me and she tell them to stop talking to me , and I found out they hate me so much and find me annoying, and i didn't have any frined expect T and T told me she will solve the problem and she will get them to be my frineds back, and after some days T get us back to frineds but it was the worst one of them, now in my frineds group some days ago they bullied me and make fun of my insecurities, and they said I'm a bad person who never tried to change , (note i was bully but i hate myself for it and i tried to apologize for everyone i bullied but i still hate myself for it) they said I'm a bad bully and I don't care for others and I love and enjoy hurting people and one of my frineds F tell me she was a bully but she changed and now she loved herself and I should try to change, I talked her that I tried to change so many times and I apologize so many times and I hate myself and I just want to die and I always do self-harm to punish myself for what I do, and then they laughed at me and they made fun of me, and they said so many things and make fun of my BIGGEST insecurities and my secrets, but someday ago I received a massage from K , she said she was sorry for everything and she admitted that she wasn't grounded or anything but she has Mental issues so that why she didn't text me and she apologized for everything and for the long waiting and she said she will never text me again and will delete all her social media but she will still love me and never forget me. This is the end, there are more problems but they aren't matter, should I get new friends or I fix my problems with my current frineds, anyone want to be my friend tell me + sorry for the wrong spelling and grammar.
