Thank you. it is night shift and I think I am going to grab it. Yes, it's not technically full time, but luckily I don't need full-time right now. My only concern is the 3 in a row. Right now it's not a problem, but the older I get, I know it will ca...
Hello all, Have any of you ever worked a schedule of 3 12 hour shifts and off 6 in a row? I've never heard of that specific on/off rotation and I'm curious if this is common? Thank you!
I was brought up in a home where sex was taboo, no medical/biological terms were used and I didn't know what my period was when I first got it. I panicked when I saw blood and my mother just told me that I'm "a woman now." I went to public school but...

Well, when you call a victim of sexual assault/harassment a "pansy", be prepared to get a reaction. What does "I don't apologize for expecting women who claim that they can do and have it all, and are so powerful, to act like it" have to do with the ...
I respect this. I just think that people need to realize that not everyone is able to fight someone off right away. Too many people say "well I would have done xyz...why didn't YOU do that? That is so not helpful. People are different and have differ...
Who are you to "question her response?" And what is wrong with her response? Just because she didn't kick him where it hurts does not mean that she is responsible for what happened. Again, people react differently under stressful circumstances due t...
