I just got a job offer for a residential roofing sales job. I'm a good salesperson, but am nervous about the physical aspect of the job. Any other women doing this who have been successful managing the weight of carrying a ladder/climbing said ladder?

I can lift 50lbs with relatively low difficulty but have no experience climbing on roofs. I'm hesitant because I am not amazing with heights.

The offer I got was for a 50/50 split on profit, company truck, ladder, iPad, and gas. No base but they did offer it. I'm still working my day job to see if I can make this work.

Im 30 and diagnosed at 26. I never really wanted kids and my diagnosis confirmed that for me. I didn't want to chance passing this down. No judgements for people who have had kids, just my decision.

I was sterilized 2 years ago and have overall been quite happy with my choice. But my oldest friend just told me she's pregnant and I'm so happy for her. But I was thinking about my own life and grieving that I don't think I could be a mother even if I wanted to adopt. I don't have the capacity. I'd love them so much but it wouldn't be enough with everything I deal with.

I had AI generate. A photo of me and two kids with my husband and my heart just broke at what could have been. We look so happy. I know it's not real, but my god maybe a family would have been nice one day if I didn't have this disease.

Thanks for reading.

I just found out my dad has to have another surgery after a fall. I live 3 hours away and don't know how to help. Both my parents are almost 70 and I'm so scared of what the future holds.

I know this isn't the end of the world, but it's overwhelming me so badly right now.

DM me your email and I will add you to the list. Copy text or write your own then redact to your heart's content. I was looking for an app like this and couldn't find one so I built one! Enjoy!

I went for dinner with some coworkers last night and my upcoming wedding was brought up as conversation. No big deal. But then the "Enjoy your life now before the kids come!"(like it's inevitable??)

One had his honeymoon to Napa hijacked by a "surprise" pregnancy. Now ten years later they're going on a family trip instead.

I just smiled and said "that's not in my plans." and got the "WeLlyOuNeVErKnOW!". Yes I do. I am sterilized and will not be baby trapped.

Cheers to childfree living. We should have a conference just to really stick it to the breeders.

My current job is demanding but ultimately not "that hard". But I think about it 24/7 and have been making so many mistakes.

I make good money but am starting to think that my peace of mind is more important.

Has anyone here taken a huge paycut to find some breathing room?
