Best wishes on job

Hello there!
I am introvert who likes to play extrovert in life and it’s been okay so far! I am currently in an ethically non-monogamous relationship. I am open, talkative and socially confident person and love to text/chat/voice call. My friends find me kind, caring, compassionate and funny. I work in healthcare and I do find purpose in my job and interacting with people on a daily basis..it can be challenging at times but extremely rewarding as well.
In terms of interests I love reading, cooking, hiking, people watching and traveling whenever I can. I have a decent amount of interesting travel anecdotes to share. Also, open to travel suggestions and recommendations. Prague, Paris and Grindelwald are the most charming cities I have ever been to. Next on my bucket list is Portugal and Italy. I love to talk endlessly about history, science, art, mythology, culture, astronomy, psychology and spirituality. I am currently learning breath-work and meditation.
I am passionate about my career and love what I do and making a difference. I still yearn to go back to school again to study some more. I am inherently curious and I love learning . I am also a huge supporter of causes relating mental health and women education and empowerment.
Now for what I am looking for I am looking to make deep meaningful connection with someone between 30-45 years ( preferably local) of age which can be potentially romantic. Also I am not looking for anything sexual or physical for now and being a demisexual I need to make a deep mental and emotional connection to bond with them. I am preferably looking for someone I can chat with, share our interests, talk about our days and the looming existential crisis lol! I am open to meeting if we get along and it feels right.. ☺️
I want to talk or text with them often and I would love to talk to someone about my day and my wishes and my desires. Books and music suggestions are always welcomed.
Please drop me a message if anything I said interested you! I am a feminist, pro choice, LGBTQA+ ally and BLM supporter so if you are not, we probably won’t get along.
Please DO NOT message me to just say “Hi/Hello” if you are bored! Say more than that, and please introduce yourself with a short description of yourself..🎤

So Ive had my fair share of weapon switches every patch. Started off with the Slugger, then I switched to using the Dominator, and after the most recent weapon balancing I started to drift from primary to primary. I noticed I didnt really stick with any of the automatic weapons much.... unless it was the Knight.
I dont know why but I love this gun so much. Maybe I just have a thing for high RoF weapons, but the the other automatics just never clicked for me.
My favourite experiences with the Knight: - Magdumping on Stalker and Brood Commander Heads while running away from a horde (Anything with a lightly armored head in front of me while Im running away gets deleted) - Burstfire on Devastator Heads on the Bot Front (Takes less than a second to squish their heads) - Magdumping on Bot Raider Patrols and just absolutely reenacting grass being cut by the lawnmower that is the Knight - Running away from hunters while shooting one-handed (Reenacting a lawnmower running away from the grass its cutting) - The Knight getting its ammo choked up from the amount of Light bugs that spawn every bug breach 7+ and up (Reenacting a lawnmower getting its blades stuck on never-ending weeds) - The annoyed sounds of my friends when they run out of ammo on their own primaries and me telling them to use some of the Knights I dropped from my previous lives - The near zero recoil I enjoy when I crouch and ADS while using an Engineer or Fortified armor - That damascus finish on the top part of the Knight...beautiful - And many much more yet to come!
It aint the best gun, and I wish I could get full magazines from an ammo ressuply box, but I love it nonetheless.
It deserves to be used more, well I hope it gets used more. Maybe Ill hear the collective groaning of a lot of people who fall to this and try a Difficulty 7-9 mission with it after reading this.
But Im good at using it, I enjoy using it, and Im gonna push for it because its my favourite gun.
And if anyone asks, I consistently play on Difficulty 7, sometimes doing some 8s and 9s.

Was seeing a therapist for 2 years primarily to navigate a specific stressor that finally eased up. In the course of therapy we of course discussed my background and major life events, as well as other things going on in my life.
In our final session the therapist expressed that I was a hard person to get to know and that she wished she had gotten to know me better and been able to access what’s going on “inside” me. Wasn’t it her job to ask me the questions and pursue the lines of inquiry to get what she was seeking? What am I missing?

Hello, I am 21 years old and am in a bit of a financial situation. I have unfortunately fallen down the payday loan rabbithole, and have gotten myself into some trouble. I currently owe about $300, and I will need to pay my credit card in about 12 days. I would like to pay between $50-100 this month. However, I am not going to make enough to pay everything off. My paycheck is about $150 every two weeks. I am about to start another job where I will be making LOTS more money, but that will not start coming in for another few weeks. I'm wondering if I should take out a small personal loan to pay off the debts now and then be able to pay it off over the summer. However, I know there are not many places that give out small loans. I would probably want to get a $400-500 loan. My credit score is also not the best. I have a score below 600, so this also limits my options. My parents will not be able to help me, and they are unaware of my situation. I would like them to not be involved as possible. I was wondering if anyone had advice on how I should continue, and if I do get a loan, some possible places that I can go to for reliable service.

I am 25 ‘F 35’ and my bf let’s call him Jerry ‘M44’ who is 26 have been together nearly 4 years. We’ve been through a lot together, in a lot of ways he’s helped me be a better person and I’ve learnt so many positive things from our relationship. I’ve learnt to trust and have enjoyed having a best friend who is my boyfriend. When we were together after 6 months I became pregnant, we had an abortion. This has been one of the toughest things to deal with, there’s more to our story but the short version is a part of the love I had for him died when I had the abortion. I attempted to break it off not long after but he said he would kill himself. We stayed together I stayed with him because I was petrified. But our life has been fun and I forgot about this over the last couple of years. However, I struggle with anxiety and depression, I’ve struggled with the abortion so much I have resented him, I have started to have psychotic episodes, sometimes see images out of shapes in the dark of a mother holding a baby, and get emotional nearly every day and it’s worse when it’s the time of the month as the pains remind me of it. I feel our emotional connection is not as deep as I would like because he doesn’t seem to grasp how deeply I can feel things.
I wanted him to help me heal but he never asks and understands me. I feel in a relationship you would both care deeply about the same things, I just don’t think he gets it. I’ve tried and tried and tried and now I just go with it! He has tried but I don’t feel like all my needs are met, I don’t think I trust him 100% and now I also don’t think he’ll trust me! We do a lot together and we have a laugh but the sexual connection I wish I felt doesn’t seem to be there and I don’t know why! I met a guy let’s say Roger (S23) out a few weeks ago and he made me feel alive, we danced and it was romantic, everyone around me said they saw a strong connection and we had kissed. It’s not like me to do this in a relationship, but I was unhappy without realising and I just felt free. I didnt go out to kiss someone but I also didn’t feel in control. I told my bf I wanted to break up but he wasn’t getting it, he said we could go to counselling but the damage was already done in my eyes, I had already cheated on someone I’m supposed to love for the rest of my life. He said he’d kill himself and asked if I thought I’d ever find anyone who could make me happy like him. I felt guilt tripped again. I had to tell him about the kiss in the end as he deserved to know, because he would not accept the fact I wasn’t happy anymore. Fast forward he wanted me back, I wasn’t sure, I wanted to break up on the phone as I knew I wouldn’t have the strength to do it in person because of the slight manipulation. Everyone said that was wrong so I did it in person, and of course, I didn’t have the strength, in fact I agreed to make it work get back together and then we were intimate. I’ve got myself in a mess, how can I break up with someone after being intimate with them and saying let’s get back together, I’m not even trying to please him but I can’t help but try to just do whatever people want! I am having counselling but I feel I can’t find myself whilst in this relationship anymore. The person I kissed is also confused. I just want to curl up and go to sleep to ignore the mess I’m in! I feel I’m slightly toxic in my ways, I do need to work on myself and I’m always looking for other people’s validation but I really need an outsiders advice, please tell me if I should follow my gut and my heart and just risk my relationship going down the drain to open the door to other possibilities?

Everything I have read makes it seem like lateraling from a small firm to a big firm or even a mid-size firm is pretty tough. That being said I was only able to land a small firm (4-5 attorneys) for my 2L summer. For those of you who worked at a small firm for your 2L summer, did you ever get a job at a larger firm after? Or if you stayed at your 2L small firm, did you ever lateral to a larger firm?
I want to go to a big firm because I want to start in a place with good resources to help young attorneys be the best they can be. But since I am going to work at a small firm I am concerned this will look bad on my resume come end of 3L.
Any thoughts on this are helpful. Thank you

Hi all! For brief background- I just graduated from college and work in the cath lab 4x10s with anywhere from 1-4 call shifts a week.
I started my job in the cath lab Sept 2023 and moved to a new part of town with my best friend in a big awesome apartment but I feel so miserable like my whole life is consumed by work. When I’m at the hospital working it’s bearable, I love my job and I love my coworkers and feel energetic and social while I’m there.
The problem is when I get home from work, every fiber of my body is exhausted. Too tired to listen or focus on the things my roommate tells me about, don’t have the motivation to cook meals, or play with my cat, and definitely no energy to exercise (all things I used to love to do).
This is really hindering me from going out and making friends in my new post grad life because I’m so tired all of the time
The catalyst is that today was my off day and I realized I am not inspired by anything. I didn’t want to to go on a run, no food sounds appetizing to me, I didn’t even want to watch TV. I literally laid in bed all day and scrolled on my phone.
So here I am. I want to know everything you guys do to maintain a healthy work life balance.
-what kinds of things do you do to nurture your body and mind during and after your shifts?

• what are some foods you prepare for the work week?

-how do you like to let loose and have fun when you’re not working?

Hey guys! I have been studying for the NBCOT exam for almost 2 weeks now. I scored a 424 on the NBCOT pre-test. I took the first practice exam today and only scored a 426. I feel like the studying I have been doing so far has hardly helped & it’s really been putting me down. I take the actual exam in 25 days. I know I haven’t been studying for that long yet, but it still feels very discouraging. Are those scores normal at this stage? I plan to continue using the AOTA question which seemed easier than the NBCOT questions, OT Miri, NBCOT mini questions & the AOTA pdfs. Any other advice on how to best use my study time? I have a job lined up a week after I take the exam and I’m just nervous about failing it. Thank you in advance 🤞

Feel free to ignore as it's a bit out of context, though this may be helpful for some. I've been doing my best to educate a few people in youtube comments (I know) but my latest reply keep getting deleted no matter what I do. I'm posting it here in full and direction them to this post instead.
@dragborn926
Absolutely!
Here are two introductory resources that do a great job of explaining the consensus and citing some studies as they relate to them.
This one is from the APA (American Psychological Association) and explains what transgenderism and gender dysphoria are, why they're not considered a mental disorder, how to care for younger people who show signs of gender non-conformity, how transition works, etc.: https://www.apa.org/topics/lgbtq/transgender-people-gender-identity-gender-expression
This is an article by the Associated Press that primarily covers the specific process of transition and rates of regret, citing reviews of Dutch studies from 2021. https://www.voanews.com/a/how-common-is-transgender-treatment-regret-detransitioning-/6993101.html
Lastly, from the NIH, this is a more in-depth collection and report of more than a thousand scientific papers, and represents the consensus of the scientific community based on their conclusions of data, as well as the few places where more research may be needed. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7441311/
I hope this all helps, and if you have any other questions, please feel free to ask!

I am seeking someone with whom I can engage in deep conversations, exchanging thoughts on how we live our lives, our perspectives, and what we make of existence as we await our inevitable demise. I am looking for someone whose outlook on life aligns with mine, with whom we can collectively find the best way to live out our allotted time. Together, we will share our plans and goals, discussing our understanding of various matters.
I would be delighted if you, upon deciding to write to me, could explain why you chose to do so and share a bit about yourself, to streamline our initial conversations.
Some of my reflections and views on life: - I've come to realize that happiness for me won't come from having a big house, an expensive car, or even a family. Happiness, for me, lies in improving people's lives. Eventually, I'll die (like everyone else), and if I only live for myself, it would be meaningless—everything will go with me to the grave. But if I create something that improves people's lives, something that remains even after I'm gone, it gives meaning to my own life and brings me hope and happiness. I'm willing to dedicate my life to this, to improving the lives of others. - I'm interested in philosophy not just as a hobby, but as a necessity for determining the direction of life and how to approach it, understanding what to do in this life. - I often ponder the meaning of life in the face of inevitable death (because what comes after death greatly influences what to do with life). - I'm interested in what to do in life and how to spend it. The typical scenario of finding a job with good pay, buying a house, starting a family, retiring, and dying doesn't appeal to me (but I don't have anything against it). If you resonate with these sentiments, I eagerly await your response.

As the title says, this was the fifth time. I just got my confirmation email. I quit almost seven days ago now.
I'm addicted to WoW. I've been playing since 2004 and, as of today, had my BNET account deleted for the fifth time. I don't play any other games. Despite WoW not being fun to me anymore, I continued to play it for 8+ hours a day on weekdays and around 12+ hours on weekends.
I've (31F) done okay in the sense that I am married (he also games, just not WoW); we have great-paying jobs, a lovely house, and newer cars. Face value, we look like we have it figured out and got our sh*t together. But my job makes me miserable, and I thought about coming home every day and planting my butt in my computer chair and playing WoW so I could get some relief and...escape.
I have also spent a ton of money on the game.
1st deletion> bought expansions up through BFA
2nd deletion> bought expansions up through SL
3rd deletion> bought expansions up through SL
4th deletion> bought expansions up through DF
5th deletion> bought expansions up through War Within
I bought tons of character boosts each time, wow tokens, mounts, race changes because I was indecisive, etc., plus a subscription for ~ about 17 years (counting in the breaks before I caved each time).
Every time I quit this game, I have achieved something great, mainly career jumps and finishing my bachelor's degree. But after accomplishing something, I think I can reward myself and that I will be able to moderate my play. Which usually starts out fine...until life gets stressful, then I get sucked in.
The most disgusting part is how much time I sunk into this game. I haven't played in 6 days, 22 hours, and have gotten back 2 days 15 hours (what I would have played over the week); I am using a phone app to keep track of my average time savings. I've gone on some walks, spent quality time with my husband (he even played fewer games to spend time with me) and dogs, and just...breathed. I've gone to bed by 9 pm each night rather than 12 pm-1 am (I must get up at 5:30 am to get to work). It's been easier to fall asleep without playing games until I lay down.
I got the twitch to cancel the deletion the two times they sent me reminder emails with the clickable link...but I stayed strong (although that did not stop me from returning in the past).
My job still makes me miserable, and I plan to change that. I polished up my resume, started applying to jobs, and am currently working on some skills to make me more marketable.
I know I have an addictive personality, and I tend to be an all-or-nothing type of person. So, my best hope is to stay strong and never pick up the game again. Hopefully, I can stay away indefinitely this time.

His fan pages spend all day finding every little clip, tik tok, article that they can spin to show how Kendrick lost and Drake is better and turn off all replies so they can reply to each other to verify their claims.
It reminds me of all those misinformation bots that were put out during the 2016/2020 election, it's just wild how I assume these are real people spending all this time doing this as an actual job.
The best part is that these pages caught the attention of much larger Twitter commentators, and Drake's fanbase look like complete morons because they get corrected and roasted on massive posts because of how stupid their behavior is on the site.
I just find it funny that I never see any Kendrick fan pages at all the same way I do Drake, very big difference between the two fanbases.

I (23F) have been dating 25M for 10 months now. I am so scared I am going to sabotage this relationship because of my insecurities. I am just comparing myself endlessly with his ex and his ex-FWB, and even random girls.
It’s almost like I want to make myself feel anxious and insecure. Information, pictures or texts that I've found through lurking (which I try to stop doing) hurts my feelings but have burned themselves into my head. For example, the summer we started dating he was frequently liking his ex-FWB pictures on IG - some revealing, some not - last one he liked was from a couple of months back, a very revealing one where she had taken a picture from above, angle looking into her tanktop, her tongue was out, nipple piercings visable through her shirt, very suggestive. Him liking provocative pictures of a woman he used to have sex with makes me uncomfortable. He hasn't done it for months now, but I fear it could return around summer when she wears revealing outfits again.
I've also recently realized in a group chat with his friends he added me to, you can look back at messages before you were in the GC. That led me to look way back and see some things from months before we started dating, that still bothers me. Messages about his ex-FWB, how hot she is, how hot it is that she is a masochist (I'm not one), etc. I even saw pictures he had shared in the GC of many, many nudes she had sent him and pictures he took while they were having sex, in many different positions (with her consent, she's into it). It bothers me it looks to be using the same BDSM equipment he uses on me, the same positions he likes me in, etc. It makes me paranoid he's thinking about her when he's having sex with me. From the pictures it was apparent she is more sexually confident than I am, which makes sense given she has a much bigger sexual history than I do, he only just took my virginity, but still, it makes me scared he wishes I was more like her. This thoughts show up in my head almost any time we do anything sexual together, it's horrible.
I also saw a message he sent in the GC 8 days after him and I had met: “I asked \ex-fwb* if she wanted to fuck just now, she's online she’s ignoring me lol”.* This was 8 days after we met, 8 days after he sent a message to that same GC about how he met a cute girl and he thinks that she likes him (me). We weren't official, didn't become so until 5 days after he sent that ex-fwb message, but still, it kind of hurts he wishes to hook up with her once more even after we had met, we had had our first date at that point. Especially also because he has told me multiple times that having sex with her reassured him that sex just as a means to get off wasn't for him, and that it was the emotional intimacy that made it important to him, he said he didn’t even enjoy it, wasn’t even attracted to her body type, etc…. yet he wanted to do it again? I fear he lied to me.
There were also some messages from the past about his ex. He send various different texts various different occasions about how he loves how extremely outgoing and sociable she is and that they can have such intelligent discussions. I feel like him and I never discuss things back and forth. I also am very, very much the opposite of "sociable", I am very quiet and subdued, I like to observe more than anything and talking to strangers makes me nervous. He also send a comment about how his ex, at the time when they were dating, had "perfect big boobs", which makes me insecure since mine are much more on the smaller side.
This is me being insecure. I am aware of that, fully. I want to fix it. I am in queue for therapy, but for now I’m doing my best with what I can do. It is absolutely exhausting, the way everything makes me second guess myself. I've considered breaking up multiple times, even though I love him and really can see myself having a family with him in the future, just because it is so draining and I feel much more insecure now than I ever did before we were dating. The little insecurity that I do show, he will go on to reassure me a tonhe's very loving, supportive and reassuring that he loves me for how I am, he's called me more attractive, trustworthy, more compatible, etc, that any girl he had a relationship with before, so it's not as if he is trying to make me insecure or anything. It's all in my head.
TL;DR: I'm struggling with insecurities in my relationship with my boyfriend of 9 months. I find myself comparing myself to his exes and feeling inadequate. I've discovered past messages about his ex-FWB and ex-girlfriend that exacerbate my anxiety, from before we were dating. In these messages he is calling her hot to his friends, seeing the GC nudes she sent him, graphic pictures from when they had sex, which makes me extremely insecure and worried that he prefers her, or is thinking about her when we do stuff.
Also about his ex, about how he thinks she's so amazing for being sociable and outgoing and I am the completely opposite. I worry that he wishes I was more like her.. I feel jealous and uncomfortable with the fact that he has liked his ex-FWB provocative IG pics last summer and I worry he will start liking her pictures again this summer when she starts to wear less clothing again, despite them seemingly not having been in contact since she ghosted him. I'm aware of my insecurities and seeking therapy, but it's not readily available. My boyfriend is supportive, but I fear my insecurities may damage our relationship. How do I repair my insecurities?

so I'm based in EU and im 2024 grad. I got an internship that ends on the first week of my new grad job.
I'm thinking of putting my 2 week notice 2 weeks before. is this best approach?

First and foremost I'm sure this would be better to be spoken about with my therapist, although she isn' trans and I you guys will have a shared experience she will not.
So I'm may last year I (21mtf) came out to my partner (20f) after a long time of repressing. It went well she's super supportive, she put me in makeup and dresses and it all felt great. I also came out my parents who we live with on holiday, my mother has done her best with understanding but reads far too much terf material on twitter. My dad took it horribly and we didn't speak for a while after, I still haven't had another convo with him about it and it's been a year.
I've been seeing a therapist who I have been seeing once a week for the past year as well and she's helped a lot with my general anxiety.
Ever since that first moment of shame from my father it seeded doubt in my mind, some friends found out too after I told one of them which has been mixed. I've ended up rather socially isolated living in a small area, I avoid my favourite bar because my ex that cheated on me frequents there, I no longer speak to the majority of my previous friendship group. My only real social life is working in a tattoo studio, all of the artists are foreign and some rather judgemental. My problem is I feel suffocated, I'm not sure if it's the political climate, my families doubt, the loss of my friends or what but as time has progressed my want to dress up has faded, I'm still yet to sign up to a gender service due to only working part time.
It feels as if I transition I will lose everything, my job and colleagues will not like me, clients (who all trend to be older white men) wouldn't understand. No where feels safe, my grandparents on my dad's side would disown me and I'm there only grandchild.
Everything feels so uncertain. Am I trans, am I not trans, am I putting myself back in the closet due to fear, was it a lie to begin with.
It feels like there's is no way forward, I want to move to Scandinavia but I lack any qualifications for a skilled workers visa ect. I'm stuck and in limbo.
Does anyone have any advice?

Lots of lore included, but theres also a TL;DR 😂 I have been friends with this person for several years now. I have been slowly trying to distance myself for them, but recently find it necessary to put an actual end to our friendship. Their passive aggression & self centeredness has been a problem for the entirety of our friendship. I feel as though we have all had those “friends” that make us feel as though we are walking on eggshells, or only talk about themselves and when you are able to get a word in edgewise, they bring the conversation back to themselves. I have tried to address their passive aggression in the past, attempting to dig deeper and open a line of honest/safe communication when they have clearly been upset about something. They essentially were unreceptive and blew me off. Honestly, due to their unhealthy communication habits, I’ve been hesitant to even broach the conversation of their tendency to dominate the conversation and not be curious about me or my life. When they talk about previous friendships that have ended, it’s because the friends had the same issues I’m currently grappling with. When they retell these happenings, they seem as though they aren’t practicing introspection and throw the blame on the other party. This further affirms my belief that trying to communicate these problems would be futile. There’s been a string of events recently that helped me realize this friendship is no longer worth repairing. I have known this friend for YEARS and I’m very familiar with the ins and outs of their life. A couple months ago, they asked me if my partner was in construction. They are in insurance 😂 I have been with them since BEFORE our friendship, and have always shared their careers wins and woes with them. It’s baffling they would forget something like that. About a week ago, they sent me a text that verbatim said “Omg. Wasn’t your old best friend that fucked you over ____ ? They’re married to one of my work besties and they were stranded off a highway so I picked them up. Wtf I like them??? What happened with you guys I can’t remember!!!” My relationship with the person they are referencing was extremely hurtful to me. I learned a lot about myself and friendships in general from that wound. We were both mutually toxic to each other. This incident was a major event in my life, as it inspired me to “do the work” both for myself, and others. The whole reason I met my friend is because I was putting myself out there after what I had experienced, so I know I have discussed this event with them at length. Most recently, this passive aggression and vindication is affecting my family. Their job includes interacting with the public, and they have taken it upon themselves to be extremely petty and unkind to a family member of mine because of an interaction that left them with a sour taste in their mouth. These series of events have assured me that severing ties with this friend is the best route for everyone involved. I expect them to try and contact me soon, as my family member filed a report against them. This is the response I have preemptively crafted: “At this point, I feel like it is in mine and my family’s best interest that we go our separate ways. There has been communication issues burdening our friendship for a long time now, and I don’t foresee them being resolved. I don’t wish you ill, and I hope you can pay the same consideration to me and my loved ones. “ I feel that they will most likely want to continue the conversation. My question is, would it be hurtful of me to not respond? I feel as though a “post mortem” of our friendship would not only open old wounds, but foster resentment for both of us. I do not feel as though it will truly benefit either of us to continue the conversation further afterwards, but I am wanting to hear other points of view before committing to this decision. I definitely do expect them to respond, as they have every right and reason to. I just want to know if it would be shitty of me to not offer further insight into my feelings/decision if that’s what they’re wanting?
TL;DR Passive aggressive friend with a tendency towards vindication has recently acted out a string of events that have not hurt only me, but my family as well. I’m wondering if it would be a crappy move to not respond after sending a singular message expressing my intention to end the friendship.

I'm coaching an all star team with a coach that has sent up some red flags. First, our league has two all star teams - an A team and a B team. My son didn't make all stars last year but made the B team this year. The A team has been an all star team together for 3-4 seasons now and breaking into that lineup is very hard. The problem is there was no volunteer manager for the B team and we were at risk of not running a B team this season. So I volunteered and so did this other guy. After a brief conversation with him I humbly decided to let him manage the team. A decision I am coming to regret. I started noticing several minor red flags after our first meeting and practice. I don't think he's got what it takes to coach this team though. I also don't think he's been a manager before. Maybe an assistant coach, maybe.
We've now had our first two practices and I was surprised that my manager's son even made the B team. He's easily our worst player and not a great athlete. So the other day he tells me that his son was chosen for the A team (no f#@%ing way). That he (the manager) chose to volunteer for the B team, otherwise 11 other kids wouldn't have the opportunity to play in all stars. I mean this guy was standing there ten toes on the ground lying to me. Big red flag!
So he shows me the lineup the other day and his son is batting 4th. Dude, what!? Big red flag. My son isn't our best batter on the team, but his son, might be near the bottom. I thought he had my son right about where I think he should be, 6th or 7th.
We get into a discussion about positions and he tells me his son is a beast at 3rd base. I mean not really. We have 5 other kids that I like for 3B over his kid, and I'm pretty sure one of them started at 3B last year on all stars. His son doesn't have a strong arm. Not a great fielder and isn't that particularly a good athlete.
We're two practices in, set to scrimmage the A team this week. This is getting worse and worse. I feel like I have an obligation to bring this up to the league. I talked with another one of the coaches and he's shocked as well. He'd rather confront the coach after a few scrimmages when his son isn't playing up to par. I feel bad that his son is in this situation. But he's not really all star caliber, honestly. I know for sure his son wasn't an A team player, and I don't know if his son would have been on the B team if he didn't volunteer to coach. Some days I wish I would have volunteered earlier and been apart of player selection. Maybe next year.
This year, I don't know how this is going to work out. I don't know if we're going to have a mutiny within the coaching staff, within the team, or with the parents. The league seems to be very interested in creating two competitive all star teams to send to pre states, so I don't know how interested they are going to be in this daddy ball coach in all starts or not. This is my first year being associated with an all star team.
Any advice, any discussion, is welcome.

TLDR: I left a job I worked at for a week... without giving a two week notice.
In 2021, after leaving the Army, I enrolled as a full-time university student and applied to work security at a local casino to help subsidize my GI bill and expenses.
I was hired after interviews where they promised to accommodate my school schedule and upcoming vacation. However, just a week into training, it became evident that the management was disorganized, and there was little coordination between HR and security. They then refused to make accommodations for my schooling.
As my pre-approved vacation began—I was already out of state—they called, demanding to know my whereabouts and why I wasn't at work. They insisted they had not agreed to my vacation, even though my name wasn't on the schedule. I informed them that upon my return, I would be resigning immediately, without completing my two weeks' notice.
I graduated this spring and plan on applying to different departments. I know casinos work closely with LE so just curious how best to disclose this in the future BI.
Thank you.
