Tequila. You’re thiiiiis close to a kick-ass margarita.
ETA: should probably have read further before posting. Sorry, y’all.
What does it cost to get kosher certification, and whom do you pay?
Whatever happened with Wise and the chip market? When I was a kid, Wise was the potato chip brand we always had at home. I only see it lately in the discount bin at close out places like BigLots.
There are multiple groups that certify. Here’s just one.

Here’s another.
Nobody comes right out and gives a cost but I think that’s because it varies. Here are some factors from that second link:
The cost of OU certification is comparatively small, and depends on a number of variables, such as the distance that our representative must travel to your plant, the frequency of visits that will be required, the complexity of your operation and the number of products involved in the kosher program.
I told him I was not happy and it wasnt working for me. You cant blame me. Now I feel bad, like, did I do the right thing? Is this what God wants?
Can you articulate why you feel bad? I don’t see any reason to, for what it’s worth.
We’d been together over a year. I feel attached. Hed been rude lately. When I told him, he said, Youre not happy, ok, bye, go.
Maybe he shouldve said, let me have another chance.
It sounds to me like he really needs to get his head straight on his own. But I’m a stranger on the internet, and that’s only from what I read here.
What about what God wants for him? There’s no way that God wants him to be manipulative, mean, and helpless.
And you’ve been enabling that.
I’m only an Assistant (to the) Minister, but I’m betting God wants your friend to toughen up and do things for himself, as opposed to using people and feeling sorry for himself.
And he knows he can keep up this emotional hostage-taking to get you to do things for him. As long as you keep crawling back like a kicked puppy (also not God’s plan, I’d bet), he’ll have no motivation to get his life together.
Ever heard of Tough Love? It’s what God practices (He doesn’t throw a magical mattress down when you slip and fall, does He?).
Wow. Just checked twitter, and this ministry I follow had posted, are you holding on because its worth it, or you dont want to feel you failed? and just because you miss someone doesnt mean you need them back.
Well alright then.
He Does need home aide help, but I have started that part time, and getting paid. He may decide to fire me, but thats ok.
He kept telling me he was going to get me a loveseat. I found a cheap one. He says he doesnt have the money, even though he spent money on a tv series.
Not to mention I had to put up with his verbal abuse cause hes sick and stressed!
I must be color blind cause I missed so many red flags.
Well, now I can be happy.
Edited to add-his brother isnt talking to him right now because he treats him crappy too.
Thank you.
I think everyone has done this before. But you can move on now.
I am trying to find a new psychiatrist. This is difficult. I think my insurance company purposely makes it more difficult. The search tool to find supposedly in-network providers is terrible. It doesn’t consolidate entries that are the same provider at different locations. You have to go through the “More Filters” menu to filter out the people not taking new patients. (Why would I be searching for a doctor if not get a new one? I guess if you were switching insurance… but still!) You can’t choose to list by practice for some reason. And, on top of all that, you still have to check if they are in network because apparently the insurance company’s own website cannot be kept up-to-date on that sort of thing. It’s also slow and does not give you enough information on the search screen so you have to click each entry to see everything and, when you go back, you have to scroll down again. It is infuriating.
I’m glad I’m not in crisis.
Can you right/center click such that things open in a new tab/window? I know some web-sites don’t work for that, but many do. Then you won’t have to scroll, and you can flip windows/tabs to compare providers.
Ahh! You can do that. You’ve made it marginally less difficult. Thank you.
My rant still stands though. This is a shitty search tool.
He fired me. Not a surprise.
That kind of shit SUCKS when it’s the last bit you have in you to even start the process.
This is my “surprised” face.

Put his ass in your rearview mirror, and move along. Bump on down the road to something less shitty.
Can you apply for unemployment compensation?
No. I just started last week, and it was only 18 hours a week.
Edited to add-a good thing I broke up. Thats way immature.
You always go back to him so all is not lost!
