What's Bothering You?

[VanitasFan26]

Nookazon continues to become more worse than it was last year. I just finished my report with this one person who gave me a 1 star review and after feedback this is what I get from the mod:

" Hello again. I've spoken to the user about the situation. The low review didn't have to do with how the trade itself was carried out, but the conversation in chat itself. They felt as though you were putting them to shame, saying how much it upsets you to wait for traders in the site. Even though you stated that you did not mean to be rude, your words didn't make this a pleasant trading experience for them and considered this to be a bit rude. According to our review guidelines, leaving a review if you considered a trader to be rude is, in fact, valid, and given the fact that rudeness is subjective, there's not much that I can do here. I'm sorry that I can't do more to help in this occasion. Thanks for your understanding in advance "

First of all, let me clear up the confusion. I literally gave her what she wanted and I got what I wanted. I don't understand why she had to give me a 1 star. This isn't fair. Its not like I "insulted" her or called her names. So I was trying to express my frustration how painful it is to do trades when you have so many offers accepted, I literally had to keep everyone updated of what was going on.. Some people gave me 1 star reviews because they thought I was not able to do the trade, even though I told them to be patient.

I swear There needs to be a balance between constructive criticism or feeling "pressured" to give someone a 5 star review even though that the experience was painful. I once had to fil a report over someone giving me a 1 star review, because when I gave them a 4 star review they got all upset with me which is the reason why I take stuff like this very seriously.. Its hard to know when someone is being honest.

I’ve been trying to be affectionate to the friend who had a crush on me, but now they’re acting more platonic. Did they change their mind on me or what? Ugh, I don’t understand this sort of thing at all.

the module literally just started now and we're already entering with a quiz/exercise. some asked for an extension to give people a chance to study the case first and the prof was like "I already gave you the materials yesterday though," but sir yesterday was a sunday?? it's a rest day from the previous module? I dedicated last sunday for non-academic activities because it's all i've been doing the past week, so i absolutely hate it when the professors expect me to just continuously study especially during an intermodule weekend. please just give me a day of break from acads i cant stand it

there's a fair bit of casual sexism in my workplace, and I don't know how to feel about it. Am I surprised by it? No, since my workplace is 98% men. I'm literally the only women in my division lol. Today a coworker made a comment saying that their/my manager would give me less work since I'm a women and??? No?? That's not how things work. Another older coworker who was my foreman at the time also once commented that he didn't know how to delegate work to me since I'm a women. To this day that statement still confuses the hell out of me. I'm guessing he meant it in a way as in he doesn't know if I can manage certain tasks or not. There's also been countless times when I've needed to lift something heavy and someone has stepped in and grabbed it for me thinking I can't do it. One time in particular I was told to carry something heavy that I didn't realise was heavy, I picked it up and started to carry it and the boys laughed at me as they were joking and said they'd carry it for me. I proceeded to carry it and told them it wasn't too heavy for me and walked away. They went hella quiet after that lol. I don't know if all this stuff is major enough to make a comment about as its more of an annoyance than anything.

Going through a bad depression phase. The person I love might end up with someone else and even though I have hope things might work out between us, I feel like I may have waited too long figuring things out. I won't know for awhile if things will work out or not which is the hardest part. I have to drive to the building tomorrow and Wednesday which is going to be awful when I'm feeling this down. I just feel sick to my stomach about the whole thing and my heart is heavy. I have to pray every day that things will work out.

Sorry you've been having to deal with these guys. My work is 90% men also so I know the feeling. Unfortunately you're paving the way for the next generation of females to be more comfortable in male dominated jobs. I use the word "unfortunately" cause men really should learn to keep their sexist thoughts to themself. Some guys at my work still believe women/femmes shouldn't be a longshoreman. I guess we will just have to keep taking up space until we force them to accept us! Honestly don't be afraid to be rude back if someone else starts it. I'm wishing you the best in the future mate!

Some teenagers stole some stuff from the store and I feel bad for not catching them. I thought I was watching them pretty well enough but apparently not. My manager is not mad but I still feel bad.

 

[moo_nieu]

submitted my report to the health department. all i can do is wait now. i cant believe how much time and effort have been put into resolving this, and we are still dealing with it

I have a cold sore. It’s not a big deal as I’ve gotten them before, but they’re annoying. It’s a shame the cream is expensive. The Carmex cream works best for me. It usually disappears within five days.

i have so much homework, most of it is from world history class. i have to finish an outline and then finish my 30 definitions, at least the outline and definitions aren’t technically due until thursday but i don’t want to wait until the last minute. my teacher is trying to drown me with homework and here i am procrastinating.

My throat hurts from allergies and the guy I look after for work is in a bad mood today snapping at his wife for asking questions saying she doesn’t listen. Dude could you start fights when I leave because I don’t want to listen to it. Also when I was doing laundry I found a few of her shirts in the laundry basket still folded up. I fold their laundry for them and all I ask is that they put them away and my guy does it, but she didn’t.

God, I hate those. I always get tempted to bite my sores.

apparently the health department cant do anything about the pee odor even though its been negatively affecting our health. im confused why bc it should fall under substances, contaminants, materials, or environmental conditions harmful to human health. i have plenty of credible documentation to prove how inhaling ammonia is harmful to human health. i just feel hopeless. they arent even sure who to refer me to. we cant afford to go legal. they did find moisture in one of the water damaged areas and i showed the video of the small leak we found in the door frame when it rained, so thats going to be reported to the landlord and she will have to fix it, but shes already said shes not going to fix the pee problem so idk what to do. i feel so hopeless. my nose is stinging and i frequently find blood on the tissue when i use it, my eyes are irritated, and my skin is itchy. ive suffered extreme stress on top of all of it. all of this and i will likely have to go 5 more months in these conditions. how can there be no help. permanent lung damage is associated with long term ammonia inhalation so who knows how much worse off my body with be in 5 months. who knows maybe my immune system will be so compromised that i will contract and die of covid. all of this and not even the health department can help? it makes no sense. i feel so hopeless and am just trying my best not to keep crying. its all my fault too bc i wanted to find an apartment to move into and not into my partners moms house while we looked for one. its all my fault and i have no way to fix it and were suffering. even the dog has been sneezing some lately. i have no appetite due to the air inside and i feel so lightheaded from not eating and with all of the crying. im a mess. my partner is not happy with me and hes right everything ive done to try and fix this has made it all worse. its my fault were here and not at his moms house like he wanted. its my fault our landlord now doesnt like us because i didnt let the pee go. its all my fault and my nose stings. i cant handle all of this stress. i feel like dirt thats been rubbed into concrete and is now permanently stuck and spread out in tiny particles across said concrete. my head hurts. i know i need to eat something but im not hungry. even being outside in the beautiful weather doesnt help. maybe ill just go for another walk anyways. i dont do anything here but cause more problems anyway

Sorry friend. Just wanted to tell you I’m here for you if you need me. Please don’t say that about yourself. I don’t know what happened aside from what you put here but I believe you did nothing wrong and you did not cause more problems. Hang in there . I hope things get better soon.

Probably a stupid question, but can you get a drs note? Or see if you can get a free consultation with a lawyer for advice?


I’m going to need a bigger tote. Oh what have I done? Also going to be fun vacuuming this out of my car.

Spoiler: 😧

Okay, so clearly, Nookazon has its problems. Not 30 minutes in, and I'm already having frustrations - not with the users though, but the interface. It's a bit awkward sometimes to ensure trades go smoothly when the opposite party don't respond for 10 mins, and you still have 5 more offers backing up the line, triggering my anxiety. lmao

Sigh. This site is stressful.

unfortunately it is my fault. if i had agreed to stay at his moms then we could have inspected apartments in person and this probably wouldnt have happened. his mom has a beautiful ranch only 5 hours away, but i didnt want to waste time on finding a job and apartment while i could run out of money (she is a 30 min drive from town so online work would have been my only option) and i pushed for us to find our own place instead. if i had just agreed then everything would have been okay. now ive wasted a month of our time and stressed us both out and our health is at risk now too.

yeah im guessing a free consultation is my only next option, but im feeling hopeless. it seems like everything ive done has only made everything worse so im not super keen on doing anything anymore. i feel pretty beaten down and hopeless. if the lawyer took the case we wouldnt be able to afford it. if we lost, we would be ruined. weve already used up so much savings just getting here
