Aside from the Big One (for which I’ve been meaning to make an emergency kit but keep putting off because reasons), we get really bad wildfires now on the west coast so before every summer I load up my inhaler and nasal spray, then I proceed to not go outside for 3 or 4 weeks because outside air bad. Thanks lungs. Thankfully I don’t live where the fires are normally happening, just in the vicinity. if I did, the above mentioned nonexistent emergency kit could be made fireproof and double up for preparedness.
Others have said here but for a help desk job it’s definitely more based on customer service ability. I came in from an admin job with a very long time in customer service prior to that but no other actual certs other than just being the person that people go to in the office for help and was told by my hiring manager it’s much more about ability to handle clients.
Now the next steps in my career I’m more worried about because it’s all very competitive at least where I am and everyone seems much more involved and knowledgeable of technology than I am. I know I can learn but it is pretty overwhelming.
I tried the sleep mask and earplugs because that’s what they say helps but sleep me just takes it all off cause I have some weird sensory issues. I need some blackout curtains :(
My partners job gave him a couple of the keg gift cards one year, it was over $100 value. We held on to them for a special occasion. We moved, it was my birthday, made plans with friends and excited to get steak paid for by his shitty employee.
Those fucking gift cards have never shown up again. Just gone into the void.
Me too. Except it’s better than when I was a kid because now we’re all adults and can appreciate each other’s company better, but my mom still always spoils me (and my partner now) when we visit like when I was a kid so it’s twice as awesome.
I am allergic to some types of mouthwash so I was told to use salt water but not as often as you’d use regular mouthwash (only every few days) because it’s rougher on your teeth or some such, I can’t remember the reasoning.
I agree with you about Lemmy content. Tbh it might be an unpopular opinion but I also miss the diversity of the meme shitposting on Reddit because sometimes it was nice to just scroll and look at dumb shit. Lemmy in general has more involved content, which is great and high quality, but sometimes just missing what I’m craving.
I do really appreciate how much more LGBTQ+ friendly Lemmy is though. Reddit was getting grossly transphobic and I’m not trans but I ain’t about that life.
That’s just a means to an end, convince a part of the working class they should fear the rest, let them fight it out, and continue capitalizing in peace.
This works great until you lose half your income and you don’t change your spending habits because your cats are used to a certain standard of living. Hooray for my line of credit!
