If you can go out to the Warsaw VEC office and see Cheryl. 487 Main St. Warsaw. The online filing is a pain and makes errors. It is 30 mins from where I live. Mon Wed and Thurs 8:30 -. 4:00 with very few people there to wait behind.

Can I ask where you ended up going and what the wait was like? Maybe the price range as well? I’ve been looking to get tested and called many many places last year with very little success (either all booked, or prohibitively expensive). Feel free to DM!

No just unemployed. Also unemployment would go back to the last qualifying employer and not VA Gov so file for unemployment. Did a 3 month stint in 2020 and collected from the prior employer of 6 years. It is the income during qualifying quarters.

Do I have to be with the job for a certain period to be able to apply? are there any limitations? I will absolutely look into this! Thank you.

Yep, everything was written up to be full-time, but in state government, you have to go through a whole year of probation where they can fire you for literally anything. They stated I was fired because I was too nice to individuals, and creating an equitable creative process took too much decision-making power away from leadership. It's 100% trumped-up charges so that they could get HR on their side. Even then, the Head of HR apologized and said I did nothing wrong in her eyes as she walked me out of the building. And this was after I helped them run the best Convention they have ever put on and helped raise the most money they ever raised for the state charity program by me creating an extremely well-received gameshow for the fundraiser event. I met and exceeded every expectation and was still fired.
I didn't know until after I was fired that the leadership has been having issues with work processes for a long time with the various programs and teams. My trying to create a creative process that shared power and leaned on multiple perspectives was seen as a threat to their control.

Apply for Medicaid and you can get your meds for free. I am on it after being laid off in Feb. My inhalers and breo are free and without coverage the breo is $1100 a month. You usually get your cards within 10 days.

Did you get a job offer letter outlining the position, salary, start date, etc? So confused how this is possible.

Hmm ok this is good to know. My main thing about neighborhood is that I really do want some nice aesthetics and to be able to walk to a park. Montrose is new to me but I don't mind looking around neighborhoods to see my options.

I was scheduled for 6, one cancelled, 2 delayed by 2+ hours, and three relatively on time. My flight on Monday from RIC-SFO was actually on time, but then our bags took an hour and ten minutes to make it to baggage claim because there was no one who could do it. The last flight home was delayed, and and they wouldn’t let me check my bag until 1.5 hours before the NEW boarding time. I had already arrived at the airport prior to the delay, so had to sit there at the check in/baggage counter for a couple hours to wait to check the bag and get through security (mind you, limited seating, no food, and check in/bag drop areas aren’t meant for people to stand there for hours). Unbelievably frustrating.
ALSO HOW DO THEY NOT HAVE WIFI? that’s really the biggest deal killer of all for a business traveler.
Ok. Rant over from a United seat I was very thankful to snag so I could get home today.

Just now joined. Have a few things in my greenhouse and beds ready to be filled.
I will have extras so I will be trading for herbs since I have the death touch for those.

how many flights did you actually take? i have one SFO-RIC experience and it was thankfully on time. i have noticed it is far more likely for them to be delayed though.

Montrose also straddles the city county line, and county bills and taxes are cheaper. Houses aren't as old, or as large, so staying under 400K and not having to pour money into massive renovations is definitely possible in Montrose.

Any potential owners for a FIV positive elderly male cat? I picked him off the street and he’s about 8-10 years old based on the vet. He’s up to date on his vaccines, he just needs a forever home. He’s extremely mellow, peaceful, and loves attention. His only dislike is being picked up as he’s a bush cat and is afraid of heights.

This is the last day of my current temp contract and I have another one lined up. As always the hours are unclear (I get told one schedule and it turns out not to be that schedule.)

When my psychiatrist mentioned I had been suspected for it as a teen I was shocked, but it would explain the mental lists I make to try and stay on track and all the other issues. He's hoping it helps me understand my anxiety better as well and he recommended I get tested. Hopefully I'll get some answers

Possibly: the drone crash? might be too recent.
