I have no facts to back this up and I'm very cynical of the politics here: I think this has been deliberate to some degree.

What’s even worse is the controversy surrounding thousands of ppl losing their healthcare (via the ACA) here in AR. Basically, ppl were sent letters requiring them to prove that they’re still eligible for coverage. Well, folks have received these letters after the deadline has expired, being put on hold for HOURS when…

I get that. Truthfully, I’m pissed at him too. I know that’s not helpful, and I’m working on letting it go. As crazy as it seems, that’s the sole reason. I’ve seen the documentation for his firing. We live in a “at-will to work” state, and you can be fired b ecause your boss doesn’t like the color of shirt you’re…

Ohhhhh, I didn't even think of that angle...

I get that. He’s probably like, “Heifer, leave me alone !!!” 😂

Being a therapist doesn't help. I'm too cerebral and live too much in my head.

Oh, gotcha. Just my mom is a borderline (maybe more narcissistic) personality disordered individual, and this would....I don't even know. She'd either feel pity or some sick joy. Either way, I don't want it.

Sure, let me know how I can help.

Thank you! It has been hard, even if he was unhappy there. We’ve talked about his spending a few days away. I know this sounds awful, but he’s always there now! I leave for work, he’s there. I come home, he’s there. Gtf away! Lol

Thanks again! It's been nice to process this with someone. My friends know but I haven't told family members for...reasons.

I was but didn’t realize it mattered THAT much. I don't think he wanted me to know, due to things going so well at my job. No, not at all. He was a salaried analyst that it didn’t matter when he started. Sad thing is, he worked over at least 30 min almost every single work day. Now I’m just feeling sorry for him! Lol

Full disclosure: he has OCD so him doing anything in a timely fashion can be hard:/

7-8 years. Idk, that’s a good question. He didn’t do it purposefully but...he had a set time to get up. Based on traffic patterns, he might get there a few minutes early or a few minutes late. Why didn’t he just set the alarm earlier? Why didn’t I insist he do that? I think we’re both mad at ourselves:/ What kills me…

😂, it’s my fault; I knew how he was when we married. But for real, I can see how your dad’s situation can be hard on families. You have to be willing to drawn a line. It’s hard, though; I may be guilty of this and giving in too much to employers.

Love being childless by choice! He's not really overly subservient. I joke that I'm married to the the gentile Larry David. Lol

Thank you! It’s appreciated! We have a really egalitarian relationship (I’d be kind of a slob if left to my own devices and he’s a neat freak; no kids). But I don't doubt that some unconscious part of his brain has bought into that whole breadwinner bs.

So husband and I are going through a difficult time. He recently got fired for bullshit reasons that he could have done better to remedy (fired for chronically being 1-2 minutes late; boss was looking for a reason). He’s depressed and being a dick. Ironically enough, I got a raise/promotion around his firing. I think…

So it’s not just me? I swear, I’ll make a totally benign comment (i.e., “I like chocolate”), and I'll have ppl legit pissed at me. FFS

White vans are creepy, though. Lol

Tina Belcher would agree,Emily Ratajkowski:
