I was fired for bullshit from my last job. My job before that, I quit without notice because the place was soul sucking and a capitalist nightmare and I literally cried at my desk daily. If you value your sanity, never work in health insurance claims no matter how desperate you are for money.

My boss is the same way. He seems to have given up with a lot of us under him because we refuse to give up our work life balance

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•what's the craziest weather you've experienced?
2·1 month agoYeah. Now I’m dealing with potentially losing my home. My dad is going to be living the RV life in spring. He offered to transfer his mortgage to me or rent his home to me if I need it. I’m honestly hoping that I can get an insurance payout big enough to pay off my home, so I can have his. It would be better accommodating for my slowly worsening disabilities and is less prone to the structural issues my home is. I’m very lucky to have this opportunity and I hope that I can have something work out right for once. I love my home dearly, mind, but it isn’t one that will be good for me as I age. I’ll be thirty next year, but I have the body of someone who is forty. I don’t expect to age well, so I am trying to get my future figured out as best I can while living life as fully as I can.

3·1 month agoThe safest place in my house is a closet in my finished basement. When the tornado that fucked up my foundation extra bad hit, I was in this tiny ass, pitch dark closet with two panicking dogs and the whole house shook and it sounded like a train was in the house with me. I thought I was going to die. Best part is that I was asleep when the tornado alert came through my phone. I booked it downstairs in 30 seconds. Found out later that the tornado was on the ground before the alert went off

2·1 month agoThat’s a crazy temp drop omg. And I’m already packing up important nonessentials to store at my parents’ place. This week is supposed to be good weather-wise until Wednesday, then we’re getting more storms. I’ve gotten like 10.5 inches of rain in the past month alone. The retaining wall beside my house is starting to bow and crack because the ground is expanding so much from the rain. There’s just no drainage for this much water. I’m also on a hill, so I’m not even getting the worst of it all. Most of the water rolling down the road misses me entirely.

I left reddit and haven’t looked back lmao. Lemmy is great. Just enough content to entertain me but not enough to let me scroll for hours and hours. The community is also so much better and there’s great content


Horses. They’re dangerous and expensive and will take all of your free time. Despite all of that, they’re my passion.
