My boyfriend and I have thrown around the idea of moving in together...especially now that he bought a house and doesn't want a roommate and I hate where I live. The major stipulation that we both happily agreed upon was having our own separate rooms for our own stuff. He's a minimalist and I have silly nerdy stuff…

That's exactly what my company does. Unfortunately, part of my job is scheduling people to be between 1 and 2 hours under 'full time' which is 32 hours according to policy. Though I don't know why it would matter since we offer no benefits, no sick time and no vacation regardless of hours worked.

Yep, did that. Twice. In fact, I completely revamped my job description AND wrote the job description for the position I should be in (which doesn't exist right now, but definitely should) with salary preferences. I even wrote a nice little letter of intent the last time I asked for a raise and it was denied.

My cousin is pretty broke, and he has a nice flat screen tv and xbox. He got it by bartering yard work for a family. He did 30ish hours of yardwork, they gave him their old tv and xbox with games because they upgraded.

My hair is straight, with ringlets, with frizz, with waves etc etc. If my hair was JUST curly, wavy or straight I'd probably be able to get it done super quick. As it is, I have to sit there and try to pick out a product that will work on whatever my hair decides it wants to look like that day. Heaven forbid I…

My manager asked me to do some stuff that was VERY against company policy a few weeks ago so I told him I was uncomfortable with it and told the station manager. Two weeks ago, he retaliated and my job has been even worse than usual. That's what you get for following procedure at my company.

Nope! I do more...in fact, technically I hold two positions because the company can't afford to hire another person and if this stuff doesn't get done our contract will be canceled and I (and everyone else) will lose their jobs. It's pretty clever, really. A lovely little catch-22.

Yes, I have. On several occasions. In fact, at my current job I've been promoted 3 times and asked for a raise several times only to be told it wasn't in the budget. My male counterpart, hired after me, is making more money than I am doing the exact same job. If I bring it up, I'll likely be fired for it. I have…

Oh yes, that story is what prompted me to use my 'male' nickname. My name is Jessica, but I started using Jesse on my resume and my call rate more than doubled. I'm in a male dominated industry and got callbacks on positions I'D ALREADY APPLIED TO and been ignored for. Put a male name on there and BAM, callbacks up…

Good luck!

I had a semi botched surgery (emergency, and very needed) when I was 11 that ruined my bottom abdominals and now I have a big stomach pooch that won't go away without surgery. I went in to a plastic surgeon just to see what was up and left in tears because he basically picked apart my entire body and told me what was…

I lived with my ex for nearly 3 years in my early 20s and he wanted NOTHING to do with my period. I wasn't even allowed to keep tampons/pads in the bathroom or he'd freak out. I had to keep them in a box in the office, hidden from view at all times. Whenever I mentioned I had cramps or something he'd just walk away…

I have!! I worked at a place where I was the only woman mechanic ever hired and they only had a men's room. It's where the lockers were, so yeah...I've been in guys bathrooms plenty of times.

I'm in the industry...and I absolutely believe it.

Lady pilot/A&P aircraft mechanic here. Just a private pilot/hobby pilot but I travel a lot for work and have seen people ask to switch flights when they found out one of the pilots was a woman. The last place I worked (private jet charter/management facility) wouldn't hire a woman pilot at all (and hadn't in their…

I fly a lot and work in the aviation industry and I can't remember a flight where I wasn't offered a snack/drink....of course you had to pay for it, but it was always available. Most of them have snack boxes or other food you can request as well. I mean, the last 20 flights or so have had a menu in the back of the…

Nope. Bakersfield, CA. Maybe Fresno. Either way.

It's times like this I'm super happy that I rarely use Facebook and that me and my dude have like...1 picture taken together. And it's not on Facebook. I also don't allow tagging of photos without my permission and my friends know not to add pictures of me without asking. I keep my life offline as much as possible.

Seriously! I've gone out with them a few times (I had to teach my brother where the best watering holes were when he turned 21, of course) and after an hour or two of hanging out with them I just wanted to punch them and walk away. Dear lord the stupid crap that came out of their mouths. Of course, I was saying…

I'm 30 and my baby brother is 21. I look at his friends and absolutely cannot FATHOM having a relationship or even banging one of them. They're children to me and still mostly act like kids. Just...no.
