  • Yep.

    At my first job I was in charge of implementing new software (definitely not in my job description - I was basically a secretary). I was discussing security concerns with the head honchos and they interrupted me and dismissed my concerns because they "only hire honest people."

    They gave everyone admin permissions.

  • Yeah, if you mean laps etc it'll be when I can move up to more intense stuff. Right now I can basically sit and float around.

    Right now the exercises I do feel like I'm doing nothing (until later, then I'm exhausted for days). It's frustrating because before all of this happened I was doing a lot of incline and strength training, which I can't do anymore. The exercises I'm able to do now basically amount to a few flutter-like moves and some shoulder work. Even that was too much this week so going to have to tell my trainer we have to pull back even further.

  • Unfortunately many of those "exercise people" this tweet is referring to do not take any disabilities into consideration. I can't tell you how many people have told me to just "go for a walk" when my disabilities require me to do specific exercises from a horizontal position. At some point I might be able to do slightly more intense recumbent stuff (very slow, low resistance cycling) but walking/running will unfortunately never be something that helps me. And don't get me started on the HIIT fad. I would die lol (not joking though)

  • Sweet! Thank you

    Yeah it's extra satisfying when I help out an unnecessarily large truck's owner lol (it's usually a man who thinks women don't know anything - like the guy who thought I should be informed to turn my car off before swapping a belt out...my hero! 🤠)

  • Thank you! I think our other car is FWD so we may be in luck.

    Unfortunately nothing is set in stone yet. We really want Denver area but our finances aren't great so it could be somewhere else entirely.

    I'm actually excited to buy a different ice scraper. The one I have is good but it's one of those double sided made for snow removal as well and that part... isn't great. It's a rectangular piece of styrofoam which would be fine except there's no way to lock it in place so it collapses when you use it.

  • Oh wow. Ok, I will have to look at how to do that. (It sounds easy enough but if I'd have to pull the car apart then definitely going to have to have someone else do it)

    (Just remembered the time I was going to replace my friends battery only to discover it was housed in the wheel well)

  • This is so helpful! I can't remember where but someone wanted the cosigner to have 5x the rent! If I knew someone with that much money I probably wouldn't be looking at low income housing, lol

  • Read this comment before the article and thought it surely wouldn't be as obvious as you're stating.

    Spoiler: with Chicago, it's usually more obvious.

    One day I will finally untangle my sense of obligation to give bigots the benefit of the doubt. Can't wait but it's a lot of work and self reflection.
