Being an adult

[email protected]

I've had a lot of things happen in the past couple months that have made me feel as though I'm starting all over again, but in a good way)

Congrats. I always try to enjoy the ride while trying to keep faith that the journey is to somewhere ever so slightly better.

I vote up, notwithstanding the lack of source or credit, which is imho very unkind

For those who think it's easier to annoy you than to Google 'Eastcoatitnotes comics' themselves.

It's very hard to get psychiatric help covered by insurance/healthcare in Europe too unfortunately.

As for getting time off work, have you looked into FMLA? I'm unsure what goes into eligibility but if you qualify, your employer is required to allow up to 6 months leave each year for any short term disability including mental health/burnout.

You might or might not get your full salary (assuming you are salaried) during this time, but it will keep your job secure as long as you document ongoing care with your employer's disability provider.

Wait. Y'all just don't buy a matching set?

Can we see those collars, pretty please??!

Problem is when they break or wear out and they don't make the good ones anymore cos they changed the design 7 times to save 1c in manufacturing costs since you last bought new ones.

You also have one piece of cutlery that you hate and you don't know where it came from. You don't get rid of it though. You'd sooner do the washing up while starving than use that stupid slightly wider fork, but it stays in the draw just in case.

You buy several matching sets and can't match the lids to the tubs so you buy more sets and make the problem worse.

There are also glass tupperwares and microwave safe metal tupperwares.

The red/orange residue is also left on those, mainly due to the lycopene not dissolving in water. But I'm with you in the no heating or cooking in plastic.

When the fuck did drawers become draws?

I sometimes forget I didn't just graduate highschool, even though it was about a decade ago now. I'm also not ready to be 30. I swear I just turned 20 yesterday

TIL: microwave safe metal containers… 🤯

I had a glass set and a plastic set. The glass set had plastic lids per each container. I let my husband take my glass containers to work and he's broken all but 2 but now the lids for those 2 unique shapes are missing by I have all the others! Some things I just need to throw out and cut my losses.

My job actually offers paid leave for a certain amount of health stuff outside of our normal leave, but there genuinely aren't any places anywhere near me that don't kind of suck, except for private facilities that I definitely can't afford. Not being able to afford time off is also because there are only 2 of us that do my job and my coworker is having serious health issues. Like lots of hospitalization, months off serious. I'm basically fine, I just haven't been happy in a really long time, so the idea of intensive treatment sounds kind of nice.

From what I've heard it was taken from a local restaurant.
