2024.05.16 21:46 Sophlia_ I am an idiot for getting back together with my ex?

I, (F26), and my husband, (M41), were together from 2016 until 2022 and we got back together in March of this year. We met in 2015 when I went to live with my father. My father has a company that is a partner of my ex's company. We met at one of the company's parties, but at the time I was dating someone else and so was he. In May 2016, there was another party, and we met again, both single at the time. We ended up exchanging contact information and started dating. Some time after we started dating, he introduced me to his son from a previous relationship. At the time, the boy was 7 years old, but now he's 14. His mother was no longer present in his life because she had started a new family and told my husband that the boy didn't fit into her new family. The boy and I quickly bonded, and two years later (2018), he called me 'mom' for the first time. In 2019, (M41) and I got married. In 2020, during the pandemic, we had our son, who is now 4 years old, and in 2022, I became pregnant again with a girl who is now 1 year old.
We broke up after he cheated on me at a friend's party. He confessed to me what he had done, and I ended things. At the time, I was two months pregnant. However, I'm not a resentful person, so we remained friends and are great co-parents. His older son lives with me and my ex, and after the breakup, he moved to an apartment 10 minutes away from our house. In summary, we have a great relationship. After a few months of separation, he started dating another woman, (F39). This woman is one of my uncle's wife's best friends, so I had seen her a few times before she started dating my ex. My ex and I have birthdays very close to each other, just three days apart. Every year, we go to Greece together, and last year, even though we were separated, was no different. It was just the two of us, our children, and his mother. One night, we went out and left the kids with his mother. We drank, and he tried to get with me, but I refused. We went back to the hotel, and he went to his room. We never talked about what happened again. Last Christmas, he was in Toronto for work, so we decided to go there as a family. What I didn't know is that he had broken up with (F39) because he wanted a second chance with me. Since then, he has been trying to regain my trust. In March, we talked, and I said we would get back together under certain conditions, which he agreed to. All our close friends and family knew we had rekindled our relationship, but we never shared anything on social media. Last month was my uncle's wedding, and when we arrived, my husband and I came face to face with his ex. We ignored her, but she stared at us throughout the entire ceremony. A few days after the ceremony, my uncle's wife's sister called me. She told me that (F39) had had a psychotic episode after seeing me with my husband. She had tried to contact my husband, but he had blocked her on everything. The news spread quickly, but it spread in a different version. The version that spread is that I had broken up with my husband without revealing a reason and that after seeing him happy with another woman, I asked him to leave her, and he obeyed me. Now everyone is calling me an idiot.

2024.05.16 21:46 bawcks 2023 Niro Wave EV was champ. RIP.

Wife n kids got in a head-on at @ 40mph with @ 15 feet of skidding by wife - by a guy who "had a seizure," jumped a median and crossed 3 lanes of traffic to deep kiss our Niro.
Kids and wife are shooketh, but walked away relatively unharmed at 36 hours in so far. TBD..
Niro ....is totaled from insurance perspective, obvs, but I could prolly sell you the car on FB if I took a series of pics of her cute shoulders and butt only - Unscathed. Face to end of front fender? Balled up paper trash.
Perfect crumpling
*Really can't say enough great things about finding out what I never wanted to find out about KIA safety. * We are likely to replace with another exact same or go EV9 - Wife wants a tank now.
Just sayin.

2024.05.16 21:46 Goldens_Rule What criteria to select insurance company?

I need to select a company to buy Medigap Plan G through. I understand the plan benefits are supposed to be all the same from one company to another and yet I see many variations in price. In addition to price, what other criteria are available to consider?

2024.05.16 21:44 MountainBeginning834 Security Monitoring Service for Home Assistant

My insurance company is requiring me to have a monitored alarm system in operation and requires a certification from the monitoring company. Is there any type of service which monitors a Home Assistant Security System? I already have sensors on all doors, motion sensors, integration with smoke detectors, temp sensors, etc. Is there any type of monitoring service which connects to Home Assistant?
If that's not possible, what is the best sort of DIY/Wireless Security System service that has monitoring that has a solid integration with Home Assistant? I'm looking into Simpli Safe but not sure if it's the best to use or not.

2024.05.16 21:43 TheStorytellerTX Don't care about your job because you're about to quit?

So back in the early aughts I worked at a local health insurance TPA (that's Third Party Administrator for everyone not familiar) here in Texas that was known for "Outrageous" customer service, and we really delivered. It was a great place to work until it was purchased by a large corporation, then it was just ok. Anyway, we had a wonderful lady that was in charge of company culture (we'll call her K), and even though she wasn't HR she was also very involved in the hiring process.
Somewhere in 2003-2005 the company did a large round of hiring, and we were picking up people from local commercial insurance companies. My wife worked at a medical office and would call those same insurance companies for benefits and / or claim status. One time in particular when she called an insurance (could have been Humana or Aetna I just don't remember) she got a representative (we'll call him Mr. Uncommon Name) that just didn't care. She tried to be civil and just do her job, but he basically told her he didn't care to help her because he'd just been hired by "Outrageous" TPA and really wasn't interested.
So, later that evening my wife told me about the incident. The next day I went to K's office.
Me: have you seen paperwork for a new hire by the name of Mr. Uncommon Name?
K: Yes!
Me: Is he coming over from (Humana, Aetna, some other insurance)?
K: Yes he is. Do you know him?
Me: No, but let me tell you about my wife's experience with him yesterday.
K: Say no more.
Needless to say, Mr. Uncommon's job offer was rescinded and he was back on the job market.

2024.05.16 21:43 No-Dragonfruit7438 I Was Simon Song

I've finally published my homage to Shenzhen, a city of dreams and of despair; my adopted hometown, the youthful beating heart of the PRC, a place as complicated, wondrous, and beautiful as the Chinese people themselves.
I spent my years in China in the elite higher educational consulting sector, a dizzyingly disproportionate world in which teams of Ivy League grads sit around conference tables in sleek skyscrapers in Shenzhen, Shanghai, and Beijing, earning doctors' salaries for reviewing the homework and planning the futures of "clients" who have only recently sprouted body hair.
Excerpt from my autobiographical story "I Was Simon Song" (full article, which includes pre- and post-pandemic reflections, is here):
“Hey, Simon. We’re in the Yale Room today,” I called from the corner of the lowlighted, luxe waiting area five minutes later. We walked down the hall, a gauntlet of American luminary portraits – Oprah and Michelle Obama, Tom Brady and Steve Jobs. We passed rooms named after each of the Ivies. I had been trying to get Cici, my boss and the CEO of Pinnacle Education, to add someone cool to the portrait collection, maybe a Joan Jett or a Jonathan Franzen or even someone so badass that she only had one name, like Gia or Madonna. So far, no dice; no dice.
The fact that these portraits and these rooms were on the twenty-second floor of a skyscraper in Shenzhen, a city of 12.6 million people on the southern coast of Mainland China that some called its Silicon Valley, never failed to drag me out to sea on a riptide of jamais vu. Then again, despite the jarring juxtaposition, there was an underlying logic. Many of these famed figures had risen from obscurity to immortality, just as Shenzhen – an undeveloped fishing port into the 1970s – had grown up to not just rival, but surpass Hong Kong, the city across the border. It was now home to Tencent, Huawei, China Merchants Bank, Ping An Insurance, and more top-flight tech and finance companies than I could list on two hands.

2024.05.16 21:42 brendanclark22 [NY] Guidance for Seeking ADA Accommodations

I've been in this group so long I can't believe this is my first post, but I'm getting kinda desperate and would love some guidance. This post might not be for everybody in this group, so feel free to ignore if it doesn't relate to you...but if it does please help!
My current J1 is amazing. Midwestern State. Great culture, pretty decent pay, and the flexibility is unreal (like my boss lets me use the "unlimited vacation" to work on extended vacation for almost a month every year!) Unfortunately it's a hybrid role and I have an extremely long commute, but the hours and days worked in the office are flexible.
Recently I was diagnosed with OCD and ADHD. It's taken a long time to come to grips with this reality since I always thought it was something that I could just "get over" by trying myself to control it--but that's no longer feasible so I reached out for help. My husband encouraged me to talk with my HR rep (not yet to my manager) about possibly getting accommodations to WFH full-time. It should be noted that my disabilities are legit...I'm not just trying to find a WFH loophole...but in the back of my head I feel guilty for asking for accommodations in the first place and making myself seem like a 'victim.'
My company's new ceo is pretty adamant about keeping the hybrid schedule, but I think that I might have a decent chance of getting my accommodations approved.
My biggest issue is that I need help filling out the accommodations request form.
  1. I want to ask for accommodations to WFH- How to I convey that doing so will assist me in performing the essential functions of my job?
  2. How to describe my limitations that make it seem like WFH is the ultimate solution, rather than giving me my own office?
  3. When I talked with HR she made it seem like they'd probably do a 6 month trial period basically....max of a year. Does this sound right? Should I ask for permanent WFH if I think it'll most likely be denied? Like my disability will last my entire life, wouldn't it make sense for the accommodations to match? Idk.
  4. Other than WFH, are there any other accommodations I should ask for?
This has the opportunity to have a HUGE impact on my quality of life, so any guidance/input you have is greatly appreciated. TIA!

2024.05.16 21:38 beigebabybeige Do insurance companies penalize former customers?

Every year, I tend to shop around when my policy is up for renewal, and generally I find a better rate elsewhere, which leads me to switching companies. Now, four years doing this, it just came to my attention that every single company I previously had insurance with (TD, Belaird, RBC) is offering me a prohibitively high quote.
I am wondering why is that the case? Have you gone back to a previous insurance company? - Do they have a “penalty” on former customers? - I am a conviction free driver with a full license

2024.05.16 21:38 Xsowski [Online][5e][Saturday 6PM CEST][Starting June 15] Unending Expanse. A game in a futuristic-renessaince setting about exploring and settling unknown lands.

The game is new player friendly, I have a lot of experience introducing players into different TTRPGs, so you can expect patience and understanding, as me and possibly my friend help new players learn how to play DnD 5e and use FoundryVTT to the best of our abilities.
The campaign is set in a world of renaissance inspired where after a great war the age of exploration has begun and people just started colonizing newly discovered lands, the titular Unending Expanse.
Tame the wild lands, that haven't been touched by men, or so you were told. After something has happened in your life you decided to give it a chance and embarked on a ship, that sailed towards the Unending Expanse, maybe running form something, maybe seeking a new life or just for fun. You wouldn't probably afford this normally, but you've picked a contract form a lesser known mercenary company that wanted you to escort a group of settlers on their journey towards the future settlement.
The campaign is for morally grey characters, that are willing to take risks and morally dubious decisions, for their own gain or to make sure the plan succeeds.
Don't prepare characters beforehand, because we'll be using mostly homebrew character options including classes, subclasses and spells. Despite that, the game is new player friendly and I'll gladly help new players learn the game in their own pace.
The game is mostly sandbox with a few central quests, but I'm used to running sandbox games including players in the world building allowing players to express themselves thru in game decisions and making their choices really matter and build world that they inhabit.
I'm looking mostly for mature players, that are over the age of 18, because the game will be adventure with horror elements and difficult decisions, so I need players, that will be ok with that and will understand a difference between real world and fiction. If there is something you would like omitted form the game, then probably my game is not for you, cos I often mention difficult topics, but I try to stay tactful.
We'll be using FoundryVTT, but you need no prior knowledge, I'll do on-boarding as good as I can.

2024.05.16 21:36 Spiritual_Pipe790 Asking for a traumatized friend that definitely isn’t me desperately at the end of my rope

I’m poverty-to-working class level, single white 37 yr old American living in a 2BR apartment. I was attacked by my neighbor’s pitbull and have zero legal recourse (don’t ask about this in please, I’ve talked to several lawyers), and now have PTSD. Diagnosis is in process, but I have it. I couldn’t afford what I would rationally consider a reasonable mental health regiment (50mins talk therapy 4x a month, 10 minute check in with Psych for meds), which in my case, calculated with current premiums with my “good insurance package,” would average to $400-$500. I haven’t been doing that since January due to company changing policies now prevents me from getting access to this treatment via telehealth, which is was lucky enough to have covered outright most as a pandemic solution I believe (this part is all speculation on my part). So, just to pick back up where I left off, I’m looking at why amounts to a $5000 year investment just to keep myself alive and healthy, as it were. If it’s not obvious, this is also leaving aside all other potential medical expenses—everything from a prostate exam to a dentist visit. Now, based on being what I’d say is my slightly above-average understand of PTSD and its treatments—I’ve read the work of Gabor Mate and Thich Nhat Hanh, worked with a trauma therapist for a year or so, have friends who’ve developed it from things like rape and wartime atrocities. Point being, I know that most of these people will deal with it for the rest of their lives, and have to make significant additional investments to their recovery; physically, socially, vocational, etc.,, and yes ultimately financially. All of this being said, if this entire scenario happened to me in the UK (let’s pretend it wasn’t even a dog bite for argument’s sake, but some other horrible event that will trigger PTSD. Pick your poison.), what kind of treatment would be available to me through the NHS? What would it cost me? What about what I’m going to call “mindfulness pursuits” that I don’t expect and sober modern government to help fund, but are imperative for trauma recovery and spiritual growth—i.e., yoga classes/retreats, sensory isolation chambers, ketamine treatment, art therapy? Does the NHS partner with local community centers or private business that might offer these types of services at what American insurance jargon would call a “sliding scale?”
I’m sure I left a lot of things out, I plan to circle back and edit, read through all the responses and such soon. But honestly, I’m at the end of my rope and have been looking at the breakfast I prepared for myself 5 hours ago and haven’t taken a bite. I have no hopes, dreams, or peace anymore. All of that has been a long time coming and mostly because of mistakes I’ve made, and ever so slightly just being dealt an unfortunate hand (I am still insanely lucky by 98% of the global populations perspective I’d say), but things have changed now. The teeth and blood snapped me out of it. I’m sitting here and just fantasizing about how things could’ve been different, and what could have been. Lifelong Monty Python, Pink Floyd, and proper football fan here, I visited London, Liverpool and Edinburgh when I graduated high school in ‘05. my Northern Irish roommate from college always says I’m the most British American he’s ever met. Thanks for helping fill my life with awesome stuff. I hear you’re a racist now father, how’d you get into that sort of thing? Do you know what nemesis means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Baggy trousers. Baggy trousers. I’m a lumberjack and I’m okay, I sleep all night and I work all day. The sun is the same in a relative way but you’re older. Shorter of breath. One day closer to death. Ive opened up the hurt locker and had a great big rummage round. YNWA. Praise Vectron. Mr Dalliard, I’ve gone peculiar now.

2024.05.16 21:33 Claija79 Reijnders: “We are not satisfied, our goal was to win the Scudetto, it didn’t happen. I am a player who can play in all midfield roles, this year I became a total midfielder by also having to play further back.”

A Gala evening hosted by Massimo Caputi in the company of Laura Barriales and Giorgia Rossi, in which the coveted Gentleman Fair Play Serie A prize will be awarded. On arrival, MilanNews.it reporters interviewed Rossoneri midfielder Tijjani Reijnders, who was present at the event. Here are his words:
“A great honour to be nominated, I come from a small Dutch club and now I am here.”
What do you think of your first season at AC Milan?
“We are not satisfied, our goal was to win the Scudetto, it didn’t happen. As for me, it’s just a matter of adapting to Italian football, improving and taking bigger steps next season.”
What does Milan need to do to reduce the gap from Inter?
“I think this season there were a lot of new players, we had to get to know each other. Next season there will be a big difference.”
Joshua Zirkzee was not called up for the European Championship.
“He got injured recently, I think that was the reason for the decision. He is doing very well, he is a good footballer and a nice person, I hope he will be called up next time”.
This season you have often played as a defensive midfielder.
“I am a player who can play in all midfield roles, this year I became a total midfielder by also having to play further back. For my improvement, I was very useful.”

2024.05.16 21:33 Complex-Addition-513 Seeking Expert Psychiatrist for Severe Behavioral Disorders

I am in urgent need of a highly qualified adult psychiatrist who specializes in non-invasive therapeutic methods and has extensive experience with severe and complex behavioral disorders. My 26-year-old son requires a sophisticated treatment approach due to his unstable relationships, repeated legal issues, and engagement in high-risk lifestyles such as kink, fetishism, and polyamory. Notably, he exhibits a troubling lack of empathy towards people, though he shows concern for animals. He has been accused of serious offenses including stalking and intentional murder, and has faced multiple life threats, including recent ones from individuals with gang affiliations. His chaotic relationships include four ex-girlfriends, one of whom is currently imprisoned for murder.
At 19, he was institutionalized and managed to assert control over the environment, influencing it under his terms. This manipulative behavior extended into his university years, where he adeptly avoided expulsion by manipulating administrative systems. It is imperative to find a psychiatrist who is adept at managing patients with antisocial traits, boundary challenges, and a propensity for manipulating treatment settings.
I am looking for a professional with a strong background in managing highly manipulative individuals, ideally someone with experience in forensic psychiatry or similar settings where strict behavioral protocols are enforced. The psychiatrist should be proficient in cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, and other advanced psychiatric practices.
The goal is to thoroughly address his behavioral issues to guide him towards independence and stability in a controlled environment that prevents him from manipulating the therapeutic process. Additionally, he has recently started attending church, expressing that only divine intervention could help him. This spiritual element may need to be considered in his comprehensive care plan. I am open to exploring treatment options beyond traditional insurance frameworks to secure the most effective care possible.
If you know any professionals or clinics adept in handling such intricate and challenging cases, please share your recommendations. Your expertise and insights would be greatly appreciated.

2024.05.16 21:31 Hellina-Handbasket Hopeless

I'm on the verge of giving up. Not sure what I will do to survive but I don't see any light at the end of this tunnel. I lost my job in December last year and I haven't found anything worth while since. I know I screwed up by actually caring about the company I worked for and speaking up when I saw things going downhill. Maybe my approach was off but I didn't do or say anything that others above me weren't saying but I'm the one they fire. So I've been looking since then and either I don't get any callbacks or they only want to pay $12 an hour. I took a job on a landscaping crew and damn near killed my knees for $14 an hour and no benefits! I'm almost 50, I couldn't cut it. One slip and fall and I'd be oweing money instead of making it. There is no industry here besides the steel mill and who wants to start that at 50. Yet they're gonna build a billion dollar high rise nobody that works here can afford to live in. I'm just at my wits end, I don't have the vocabulary to express how fucked up my mind is right now. I know I need a therapist but without insurance or an income pickins are slim. I have prescriptions I NEED and doctors I NEED and paying out of pocket is ridiculous but I'm doing it thanks to the last bit of my 401k. My wife is supporting us at the same company that fired me and that doesn't exactly make for fun conversation. I'm thinking of just swallowing my pride and asking for my job back. It sucks but I had it made there if I could have just learned not to care. I don't know if this is a rant or if I want advise, I just had to get this off my chest. Can we please start the revolution before my joints give out.

2024.05.16 21:30 SlimeSpree Soft Punk Review (with pics!)

Soft Punk Review (with pics!)
My second review today is for a company I have come to really adore! Excited to bring you another round of...
Soft Punk
£11-17 for 4-6oz jars (these are all the latter size.)
I’m very exciting to return to Soft Punk for a round 2 after my first pleasant experience. In my box were a very generous amount of gift candies. Borax is a free optional extra but I didn’t order any. Good on Soft Punk for that, I’m ashamed to say I have started to toss sachets of borax as I’m drowning in the stuff! It makes a lot of sense to make it an optional extra to save a store some money in the instance that the purchaser doesn't need it. The labels are waterproof, well designed, mature and understated (which contrasts superbly with the loud and popping, but none the less super classy, glitter logo labels on the lids!)
https://preview.redd.it/m8poy8at6u0d1.jpg?width=2763&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=40e70f6f6132291f9614dd1c99890a553924952f
This round I got:

  • GAY-MER (clear glue floam, Mountaindew dragonfruit, plumeria, hibiscus, patchouli scented)
The scent was very pleasant and well formulated, not to my usual preference (I generally prefer bakery and vanilla/fruit focused scents) but I can certainly appreciate it and love patchouli!)
I thought the theme/pun in the name of this slime was a lot of fun (the sprinkles are little game controllers.) The base was a little sticky but nothing that a few puffs of activator didn’t take care of right away. The color was great and the slime nice and stretchy. Tons of pops and crackles and all you would want in a good clear floam.

  • FAVORITE BAND TEE (lush x lava rock, black fig and honey scented)
A really beautiful and sultry, perfume leaning musky scent though I was definitely getting notes of fig and honey woven into it. As someone who isn’t usually keen on perfume scents, I found this one absolutely stunning and very sophisticated.
It left a bit of a moist residue on my fingers at first touch, as is typical of this sort of texture, but it very quickly combined. This was a beautiful slime, so very soft, dense and jiggly with a gorgeous aesthetic. It was a nice and clicky, easy to stretch plush jelly texture with just enough resistance. This texture was just so incredibly squishy and soft and unique to Soft Punk. It was a perfect, super jiggly jelly with a soft, plush velvety feel, completely non-sticky and very pleasant in the hands.
My fingers did come across a few pieces of the lava rock but they were quite sparing in the formula and consequently his slime is not in the least bit pokey. It had soft bubble pops and was very inflatable. The colour and aesthetic was excellent and, along with the lovely texture, reminded me of that ultra soft from chronic over washing, cosy old band tee that you keep for years and years and put on when you want to be comfortable.

  • 1:15 (vinyl, creamy cotton candy, lavender, grapefruit)
Oh damn this smells GREAT! I was picking up all the notes mentioned, it was sweet, musky, seductive and very inviting.
I would best describe this texture as a whipped, super thick and holdable, matte T&G (I know that’s a contradiction!) It was a beautiful mauve that I really appreciated and had some big, loud, aggressive bubble pops. Medium finger pokes as this has less moisture in the formula as is indeed more like a matte "vinyl." This was a truly exceptional slime that was profoundly pleasurable to play with.
I have experienced multiple slime sellers claim that certain textures are particular to them and allocate them new unique names. Often these textures end up being nothing particularly new or unique. However, Soft Punk really have earned the right to do this. Their textures genuinely are unique and innovative enough to deserve a new descriptive term and this is a tremendous example of that!

  • PILLOW PRINCESS (doughy cloud creme, blended buttercream frosting scented)
The little silky pillow charms are a lovely touch, the whole aesthetic beautiful and inviting and the name gave me a giggle to boot! This has a lovely, soft buttercream frosting scent which is my usual jam. While I loved it, it made me realise that Soft Punk’s perfume leaning scents had ironically really won me round! I found myself craving another one of them having thought that this was the scent I'd like best out of the bunch.
This gorgeous slime gets all the more clicky as it inflates and was a beautifully soft, ultra plush and fluffy inflatable, holdable cloud creme. The more you stretch the more it inflates and gives you the best soft sizzles. I decided to lose the pillows into the slime to see what happened and strangely enough my fingers didn’t seem to come across them again! This was really beautiful and enjoyable and I fell in love with absolutely everything about it.

It inflated considerably!
Soft punk make mature, sexy slimes and have made me very much develop an unexpected appreciation for scents that aren’t food focused. However, this really only pertains to Soft Punk simply because their scents are so fantastically formulated and well selected for the themes. These scents are simultaneously relaxing and stimulating and never overpowering. Perfume scents often just smell like a cheap cosmetics store or cleaning products to me, kind of all the same and a bit sickening but not Soft Punk’s. They are all extremely sensuous, nuanced and seductive. I genuinely think Soft Punk has some of the best non-food scents out there and I look very much foreward to trying more in future!
Every well seasoned slimer hopes for something texturally unique to surprise them and give them a new sensory experience and Soft Punk do that for me oh so well! None of the textures are predicable or boring, they are all nuanced and a little different to anything else out there. The themes are playful whilst again being adult focused and it crossed my mind what a fun, sensual experience (especially so considering the beautiful, relaxing scents and beautiful textures) playing with these with a partner or on a first date would be LOL!
I don’t really see why Soft Punk deserve anything below a 10/10 for this utterly stellar batch of slimes! I can’t wait for round 3! 🖤

So I have to do a chapter 13. He did say since I have my car with navy Federal and a personal loan they could do the cross collateral thing.
He has great reviews and is charging $2K plus court fees $700. I feel like there is light at the end of the tunnel. My credit is shot anyway since so amny cards are maxxed so atleast for the next 5 years wont really matter.

2024.05.16 21:29 Colo232 Please help me on path to follow, if any…

Hello all, been following this community for a long time and I’m about to make a decision for which your advice is greatly appreciated.
I’m 52 years old guy (good health condition, divorced, a daughter in her first year of university and no family in America). who worked for Corporate America (Finance & Operations) all his live (relocated internationally and all) and was let go a couple of years ago and couldn’t find a single job; I was born in Argentina but do have US Citizenship as I was in the States for 15 years up until 2009. I do speak Spanish, English, Portuguese and Italian.
Been living in Argentina (Company relocation) since I left the States, and I’m about to return to Florida (Palm Beach) because things are really tough down here. I’m going back to Florida because that’s where I’ve lived for most of those 15 years in the States and have some very good friends that will let me crush in their house until I get up and rolling (don’t want to abuse them!)
Hope my introduction helps to portrait my actual situation and where I would like to get from here (please remember, no family or house in the States).
Here I go:
1) I would like to become a truck driver doing OTR, driving as much as I can and live out of the truck (meaning no home time and tacking my 34s wherever I may be). I need to catch up with those unemployed years.
2) Had a Florida Driver License for those 15 years which expired on February 2010.
3) Getting back to Florida on June 1st (two weeks), and already have booked and appointment on June 3rd to get my Driver license back (just need to retake the knowledge and vision exam, no driving).
4) From there would like to obtain my CDL through a trucking company and work for them.

I have been reading that is very difficult for drivers in Florida to obtain any OTR job as no company will get you down there for home time (time that I will not be seeking).
My questions:
5) Since my Driver License has expired and will get a new one on June3rd, will my prior fifteen years count, or I would need to have a year from now prior applying to any CDL?
6) Based on the information provided above, what will you do to obtain your CDL as quickly as possible and from there work with the company that helped you to obtain it? Want to move from my friend’s house as soon as possible, ideally two weeks as I don’t want to bother much.
7) Since I won’t be requesting “home time”, do you think I could be recruited from Florida (my address will be my friend’s address but planning to be there no more than two weeks)?
8) I drove stick my whole life, will it make any difference (money and job wise) to be trained to drive stick?

I would really appreciate any information / comments / tips / pointers that you can provide me to help accomplish my goal.
Lastly, sorry for this long post, but been thinking about asking these questions for a long time.
Thank you all and drive safe!

2024.05.16 21:28 playmoby Love my job, but having major issues with main co-worker

Hello.
So I work as a Dispatcher. I perform my job very well and am quite proficient at it. My coworker, who was hired 2 months before me, is a whole other story. They are constantly mislabeling jobs, sending techs to wrong address, takes forever to put a work order in, and other things. She complains about customers who call and is always making excuses like "oh well i guess that job didnt get put in because that's when the phones were blowing up". She is also consistently 10-15 mins late everyday.
For the past 7 years, I have been in this job. I love this job and the location could NOT be better for me (I live 5 blocks away). But lately I have been having major Anxiety over my job, because I feel like If I dont do eveyrthing, things wont get done. Like if I let it slide and only do my share, the jobs, the techs, the company will suffer.
Now I know this is the bosses responsibility to ultimately address, however, the few times I have brought this up, it is pushed under the rug as "well we all cant be the allstar player" now, which yeah, it feels great to be recognized as such, but really? That fixes absolutely nothing.
I have been applying to other jobs recently, and I have gotten some replies back and interviews. Like I said, I really dont want to leave my job, but I dont think my mental health can handle it anymore with the co-worker.
Thoughts?

2024.05.16 21:27 meikasahara Travel Insurance recommendations for Backpacking SEA

Hello,
I'm an EU citizen currently residing in the Middle East, and I'm planning a backpacking adventure through Southeast Asia for a month.
I've been researching travel insurance options, specifically ones that cover medical emergencies and accidents, but I'm having trouble finding a suitable one based on my location.
Ideally, I'm looking for a reliable travel insurance company that doesn't depend on where I currently live.
I've come across SafetyWing as a potential option, but I'm curious if anyone in a similar situation has experience with them or could recommend other alternatives.
Any recommendations or insights would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your help.

2024.05.16 21:26 TheHappySkier [CA] Minor job title discrepancies in background check

My background check from Hireright came back with two discrepancies. One was a mistake on my end, the other it appears the person verifying the information wasn't accurate (or maybe didn't realize the importance of it matching exactly). I have already accepted the written offestarted the onboarding process.
So I'm a graphic designer... On one job I stated that I was a 'Designer' and turns out the actual job title was 'Production Designer'. This was a totally honest mistake. It was a short lived job and I only remember them referring to me as Designer. I had completely forgotten the production part! It wasn't until they brought it to my attention and I dug up my offer letter in an archived email and I realized I had made an error. I told them they were right and I had made a mistake.
On job two I was 'Senior Graphic Designer'. This was absolutely my job title. Evidently the person confirming said I was a 'Graphic Designer'. And his response to verify my dates of employement was "that sounds about right"—which also caused a red flag that I was asked to verify. I saw the name of the person confirming my information in the report, and when I worked with him, he was also a staff member (he's now a partner, which I assume is why he took the call), but I'm guessing he doesn't remember my exact title (also this was another job I wasn't at very long due to a move). The business owner that hired me would probably be the only one that remembers accurately. It's a very small agency so I'm sure their record keeping is different than a large corporation.
I had applied for job two through Ziprecruiter, and even though the job is closed you could see that I applied in my account history, indicating a Senior role, and the date and time my resume was viewed by the business owner. I also had a follow up email from the business owner through Ziprecruiter stating the job title. So I sent screen shots of both of those. I also sent over some email correspondence between the owner and I indicating start date and my acceptance of the 'Senior' Designer role. And I found a check from the last month I was there & my 1095-c form showing insurance coverage for the time I was employed by them as documentation of dates employed.
The whole process thus far with my new company has been so smooth and everyone has been very communicative throughout the process, but I sent these files over two days ago and haven't heard back yet. I've been checking email incessantly and making myself crazy! Wondering if I should follow up or give it a little more time? Is this something I should worry about?
