Hello my inlaws both have aides all day 5 days a week. They are under the impression that they need to buy extra food for the aides to eat each day. Is this a thing or are they just being paranoid?
Or Immigratiom shows up, and they are gone. We had 1 guy that went on a visa run to Cambodia and never came back to the country. The landlord was coming to school asking questions. Come to find out the poor soul OD in Sianhoukville. We had another one wanted for bigamy and theft from some South American county. He would tell people he was related to Winston Churchill.
Me too. Worked over there for 10 years, 4 schools and plenty of characters.
He was a Florida guy who was convinced he could cure his prostate cancer by drinking orange juice and sitting on a special pillow. He would also randomly yell, "I'm gonna kill you," during conversations.
Anxious people that cannot make a move or make decisions. People that waste other's time due to their paralyzing fear of other places, overly worried about safety. People who cannot adjust to new places even if they do not like the food,weather, transportation...etc. also boring people that have no ideas on what they want to do or see. I prefer to travel alone almost always.
I'd be more than happy to stay home and raise my children while they are so young until they enter school. They are not poor and do not need the income, so what's the big deal? She can go back to work in a few years or work from home PT.
What you say is true. I look at policies more than anything, and I think both sides are no good. It will pain me to vote for Biden but would do in hopes of the Dems coming up with someone valid and viable for 2028.
Me too, I just started to learn about it, and it is a definite no for me
That Project 2025 is just ridiculous!! I went and read about it and was pretty shocked that anyone would think it was a good idea.
Literally not being snarky but would like to know which Republicans are voting for Biden?
I saw it Friday, and luckily, nobody else was there except an old couple that did not move the whole time.
Nasty, gnarled teeth
I've taught 2nd grade for many years, and that has been the obsession for years and Minecraft. Wish they could come up with something new, I dread the new school year with them only talking about playing Roblox all summer.
No, skip it and head on to Koh Samet and/or Koh Chang if you want to be on the Eastern Sea Board. Otherwise, head to Krabi, beautiful and not as dingy a Phuket at night but Phuket is also stunning.
Being a teacher, I am pretty sure I can work until I die on the classroom floor.
Thank you for answering. Hearing other's situations helps. We have the VA aides on weekends and a company for the weekdays. Also, each have their own aides and are split between a.m. aides from 9-4 then.p.m. aidss from 4-9. It's a lot to deal with.
The inlaws will not pay for takeout, much too frugal. I think we need to get on a schedule for crock pot meals, and if an aide wants leftovers, by all means, let them have it. We will start to do shopping as well, so no one feels they need to buy food for the aides and their preferences. One did not like tuna, so my MIL bought salmon, that is not going to happen again, esp as these aides switch around after a few weeks through the VA and the company being used.
I tell them I would like to round down.
That is kind of you all.
You make a good point. They have fed the aides, and it would/will be weird to just stop. One of the aides does cook some like put salmon in the air fryer sort of thing.
They cook regularly, so the cost of having to feed another adult 2 meals a day is spendy. I get that the inlaws want to be polite but they are complaining about the costs.
Thank you, this is what I suspect. My MIL.is buying extra salmon and dinners for them, they pay enough already, food is not.part of the deal.
Stupid Palm Beach County Florida. Lamest place, lamest people, terrible food, zero culture. Not worth half the amount it costs to live here.
Somewhere you moved that was so bad you ended up relocating within the year?
