so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god
okay so i just got my dream job??? a week after applying to it?? and now iām thinkingā¦.maybe this is the good luck post
I got 100%??? On my GIS test I barely studied for??? And now I donāt have to take the final???? Holy fucking shit this post works.
I got a job today lol
HOW TO STUDY IN THE MORNING
Waking up to study in the morning can be a chore, and if youāre not a morning person, you feel the struggle a lot more. While I personally recommend adapting to your bodyās schedule, some feel working in the morning helps them feel more productive!
THE NIGHT BEFORE
Take out your study materials - textbooks, pencil case, laptop etc and put them on your desk.Ā Donāt leave anything distracting on your desk!
Prepare a glass of cold water - or a mug of tea or coffee and set it on your desk so you donāt have to get it the next morning.
Write a to-do list to make sure you donāt miss anything you may need to do.
Get an early night! If youāre waking up early, you still need to sleep and get all the rest you need!
WAKING UP
Set your alarm and leave it on the other side of your room so you have to get out of bed to turn it off!
Bonus if you set your alarm to something really loud and annoying
If need be set multiple alarms or ask somebody to wake you up
GETTING THINGS DONE
Wait before having breakfast! Remember those study materials on your desk? Work for 15-20 minutes then eat breakfast. If you eat breakfast first, youāre more likely to procrastinate and forget about your work
Drink those liquids! The water or coffee you left out? Drink it now to wake yourself up!
Get a blanket / some fluffy socks / a warm jumper. This will stop you from going back to your warm bed.
Stay away from the internet. Use apps like forest or turn off your phone and hide it so you canāt see it.
Stick to your to-do list and tick off completed tasks.
Discipline yourself! Sometimes you have to stare at your desk and argue with yourself about how you need to study. Itās okay if you do this!!
It can be that you try all this and you still canāt bring yourself to study in the morning - thatās okay! Maybe your body is more suited to studying in afternoons or evenings! Learn your bodyās schedule!

Ok y'all but like Iām not even kidding about this I read this post yesterday and today I got an email from the peeps at hamilton and I won the lotto gor $10 tickets and I would like to give all my thanks to the internetās favorite fish, Goldie Gurston, for making this possible because I totally believe they did this with their amazing gay powers
So I know this is likely a coincidenceā¦but I reblogged this and just now discovered Iāve been given a $150 amazon gift card as a bonus at work. So thank you, fish!
If it worked for them I hope it works for everyone else
Some big spicy joy pls
SOME BIG SPICY JOY PLEASE

a fools guide to not wanting to die anymore
by me, a fool who doesnt wanna die anymoreĀ
never make a suicide joke again. yes this includesĀ āi wanna dieā as a figure of speech. swear off of it. actually make an effort to change how you think about things.
find something to compliment someone for at least 4 times a day. notice the little things about the world that make you happy, and use that to make other people happy.
talk to people. initiate conversation as often as you possibly can. keep your mind busy and you wont have to worry anymore
picture the bad intrusive thoughts in youe head as an edgy 13 year old and tell them to go be emo somewhere else
if someone makes you feel bad most of the time, stop talking to them. making yourself hang out with people who drain you is self harm. stop it.
⦠8|
Thatās some pretty good advice. I donāt know whatās left of my humor after āguess Iāll just dieā jokes but itās worth a shot.
Personally i went from āguess Iāll dieā jokes to āIF I HAVE TO BE HERE FOR 5 MORE MINUTES I PROMISE YOU I WILL BUY JUST, AN ARRAY OF CLOTHES.ā and other wild hyperbolic stuff. Just replace the death part with something ridiculous and off topic. Its very entertaining
This also works with calling myself things like stupid, worthless, trash, etc. Even if you do this jokingly to yourself, your brain still believes it, and keeps up the cycle. Seriously, I found that when I stopped saying these things about myself, even jokingly, it made a massiveĀ difference.
Hereās a tip I picked up from a friend thatās helped me a lot ā replace self deprecating jokes with ironically self aggrandizing jokes
Like every time I trip and fall, instead of saying ālām just a disaster humanā I say āIām the epitome of grace and beautyā
Or like, when I draw a picture Iām not 100% happy with, instead of saying āmy art is trashā I say something like āyou know I think itās time we replaced the Mona Lisaā
When you do that you get to make a joke, but youāre ALSO getting practice building yourself up, yāknow?
And eventually it becomes a reflex and you get so used to it that you can say nice stuff about yourself even when you ARENāT joking
This is so important
ALRIGHT. LISTEN UP.
So recently, I got calls from the phone number, (937) 353-8319. They claim to be a job service, and one of their āemployeesā, Carrigan, is friends with whoever the call recipient is, and that Carrigan has recommended you for this $15.00/h ājobā. I also got a text message from (937) 607-1493, claiming to be Carrigan, and that they need stuff to āwin a scholarshipā. I do not know anyone by the name of Carrigan and I know very well that this is a very dangerous scam. If you receive a call from a number, and they ask you if you would like a job for $15.00/h, HANG UP IMMEDIATELY. If you accept the ājobā offer, and you go in for an interview, they will give you a drugged bottle of water and you will wake up somewhere you donāt want to be. These phone calls & texts are from a human trafficking service, and if you oblige to them, you will be sold to people and you will be raped, no doubt about it. So PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER THESE CALLS OR TEXTS. I have listened to the voicemails, and allowed my dad to do the same, and he learned that anyone offering a $15.00/h ājobā is a human trafficker. PLEASE SIGNAL BOOST THIS ALL OVER TUMBLR
Okay, I am reblogging this because it is relevant again. I got another call from a 353 number. Not the exact same number, but I know that it is a trafficker because itās 353 just like the last one. I also want this to signal boost so PLEASE REBLOG THIS.
Why are people deleting the captions though I had to search for what the pictures meant donāt do that
a side note,Ā because theyre very popular around the DMV, If you ever see a sign with something akin to āfree debt erasureā ā15/h jobā etc and ONLY A PHONE NUMBER, ignore it. tear it down if you can, because those are well known scams and sex-trafficking baits.do not, by any means, call or respond to these messages. do not let your friends do it. do not.
THIS IS IMPORTANT AF THANK YāALL HOLY SHIT
Oklahoma is one of the worst states as far as human trafficking, so thank yāall so fucking much. Thatās literally my life and the lives of everyone I know that yāall just saved. Thank you. Thank you thank you thank you
*FUCKING SPAMS REBLOG*
guys pls this needs more reblogs
Please be safe guys
Tumblr is keeping my dumbass safe. And my mom says im never gonna learn anything with my eye always on my phone. ššš¾
I did the worst ever imaginable thing by being accommodating.
Okay, so backstory: I work in a medical office in a city that has a ton of people from all walks of life, from every corner of the globe. So, we have a large staff of fluently bi/tri-lingual people and (suprisingly, Iām one of the few who only speaks one language :( but whatevs). Our computer system even offers text/phone/email reminders in Spanish, Vietnamese, Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, German and Italian.
So, my first week in the pediatric side, we have a mom with 3 kids come in. Only speaks Spanish to one of our front desk staff. Speaks Spanish the entire appointment. When I am double checking our appointment reminders at the end of her childrenās appointments, she only speaks Spanish through the front desk staff member who is training me.
Okay, so I double check with the trainer to confirm we are sending the reminders in Spanish.
The lady agrees to reminders in Spanish.
Come to today, (a few weeks later) she speaks English to me. Nice, this lady speaks two languages! Good for her! Thatās awesome.
She complains that she didnāt receive the appointment reminders. No big deal. I double confirm the phone number, tinker around to the extent of my access to that portion of the system. And then I ask, āAnd, just to confirm, you wanted the reminders in Spanish?ā
She. Loses. Her. Shit.
āUh, no. Why would you assume I want it in Spanish? I donāt want it in Spanish. Who told you to put it in Spanish?ā
So, I say, āOh I apologize for the mix up. Would you prefer it in English or another language?ā
She just keeps ranting. āI never said to put it in Spanish! I could be Indian. I could be any type of brown person but YOU *jabs her finger in the air in my direction* assumed I need everything in Spanish. I want everything in English. I canāt believe you would do this. Why do this?ā
I calmly reply, āIt it a service we offer to patients who arenāt fluent in English. We be so disappointed if a patient felt excluded from the healthcare process because of something as trivial as a language barrier. We have so many staff members who speak multiple languages, but we want our care to extend to the written word for our patients.ā
And she just harrumphed at me and said, āIāll speak to your supervisor about the kind of staff theyāre hiring here at my next appointment. I canāt believe theyād have someone like you on the staff.ā and walked out, snapping at her children in Spanish. And the entire time, she spoke with a heavy Spanish accent.
You canāt win them all.
(Fyi, my mom is fluent in Spanish and never taught me. I ended up taking Spanish in college, but I am not confident in my vocabulary to hold a conversation. I can understand the gist of Spanish conversations held around me, so Iām not 100% completely clueless.)

REBLOG FOR GOOD JOB GETTING KARMA COME ON GRAB A PIECE
A couple of stories
The last story might be a trigger???
I remember this one from February because Iām baffled every time I think about it. This lady comes to the pharmacy with a shitload of on sale V-day candy and she also wants to pick up her prescription. I tell her the price of her very important medication ($11 by the way). She doesnāt want her medication anymore and just paid for the candy instead. Which came up to $18. Priorities.
Some guy comes and picks up antidepressants for his wife and tells me āyou know ..I donāt think she even needs this stuff. She just needs vitamin D and sheāll be okayā and just laughs like a fucking ass wipe afterwards. Like why??
And the last one. Iāve been dealing with depression for 7 years now and this year has been the absolute worst for me. Just horrible. Last week something happened to me and I had to go to work that same day. I was a mess. Iām talking ugly crying in the bathroom, puffy eyes, redness and I tried my best to keep it all in. This customer comes to my register and asks for help looking for a certain vitamin. I offer to help and walk with her to our vitamin section and as weāre walking she says āhow are you?ā And I told her ālifeās been pretty rough, but Iām tryingā and she goes on to give me this super motivational speech and closes with āthereās a light at the end of the tunnel and itās not coming from a trainā and I just stood there. Because I needed that. I honestly believe that she was a sign. And that things are going to get better.
Fuck Managers
TLDR; my managers wont give me any days off because they canāt find coverage for me but will beg me to cover someone elseās shift.
So my pharmacy is understaffed and I mention this in every story I submit because itās the root of all of our problems. Anyway. Friday March 9th I mentioned to my favorite pharmacist that I wanted to get April 8th off because it was the day after my birthday and tbh I wanted to sleep in (I didnāt tell her that part though). She says okay sheāll try to find coverage and we left it at that. Middle of March comes and I mention to the other pharmacist that I wanted April 8th off because I didnāt hear anything from the other pharmacist. She asks why and I tell her and as it turns out her birthday is a couple of days before mine. So we laugh and joke about us being Aries she says sheāll try to find coverage and we leave it at that. April is approaching and I ask both pharmacist (at different times) if they found coverage for April 8th. They tell me no and began struggling to find coverage. No one is available. Fantastic. Itās not like I mentioned this a month ago or anything (I canāt do paid time off because it wonāt get approved because once again. The pharmacy is understaffed). So I decided to take matters into my own hands.
April 6th I asked the pharmacist if she found coverage for me. āNo Tyler unfortunately we didnātā oh? Sad to hear āIām going to be late thenā. āLate?ā āYeah I mean .. I asked for this day off a month ago because I was going out of state for the weekendā Iām actually a great liar. āOh. So when can you come in?ā ā1ā my shift is from 11-5. ā12 would actually be betterā ⦠ā1 it is thenā my ass showed up at 1:30pm
Why did you do that Tyler? Well you see. For all of the days that Iāve asked for, I never got any of them. They told me I couldnāt go to a hackathon (which I need to attend because itās experience for my major), they bullied me into postponing my jury duty and said no to any other day that I asked for. But hereās the kicker.
Iām at school studying for exams when I get a text from one of the pharmacists asking me to cover a shift for my co worker and itās an emergency. I tell her I canāt because Iām not available on Thursdays anymore (I see a therapist on Thursdays for my anxiety and depression but she doesnāt need to know that. And I canāt cancel because i wouldāve had to cancel 24 hours ago). She asks if I can make an exception this time and come in. ???? Um. No. She then begs me and has my co worker message me over Facebook asking me to come in and I had to stop and think. Was she doing this when I asked for April 8th off or did she accept peopleās noās the first time. Long story short. I didnāt go in.
PICK UP YOUR PRESCRIPTION ON TIME AND STOP WAITING UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE
Pharmacy girl again. Two stories for ya. So at my location the pharmacist wants us to call people before we delete their prescription which doesnāt make sense because weāve called them before when they were on the call list but whatever. This is what happened when I called the first guy on the list.
Me: Hi is this so & so?
Him: yeah. May I ask whoās calling?
Me: *gives him the whole shtick about his prescription. *
Him: oh yeah. I havenāt been able to get down there. Is there a way I can delay my prescription??
Me: ā¦ā¦ š delay? How long are we taking here?
Him: like a week
Me: but .-. Your prescription has been here for 10 days already and by law we canāt hold it any longer. We can store it for you and you can call ahead so itās ready by the time you come in.
Him: itās a yes or no question. Can I delay my prescription and pick it up next week or not?
Me: š no. Your prescription has been here for 10 days and-
Him: and youāre now calling me?
Me: ā¦umm weāve called you beforeā¦do you have calls/text messaging on?
Him: no.
See thereās your problem.
Him: *sighs deeply* alright I guess Iāll come down there and pick it up. This is so obnoxious. Bye
Me: šššššš
The guy came to get his prescription 20 minutes after that call. āāāā- Another thing I hate
Me: Hi are you picking up a prescription?
Customer: yeah. No actually I want to get a refill of my prescription Iām going on vacation.
Me: Okay. *gets the personās info and enters it in* Me: Iām sorry. You picked up this prescription 5 days ago.
Customer: ā¦yeah but Iām going on vacation.
Me: did you let your insurance know that??
Customer: No. I canāt get my prescription?
Me: Um. No. If you are going on vacation LET YOUR INSURANCE KNOW. That way they can give you a vacation override. You have to give them your flight info, when youāre leaving and when youāre coming back.
I hate when people wait to get their prescriptions until the last minute the day before they go on vacation. Like why?? Insurance companies sometimes donāt approve of Vacation Overrides on the spot. Itās going to take a while!!
All i do is listen to music and overthink shit
please keep me in your prayers guys, nothing happened i just want a fatter assš
The Fundamental Attribution Error
Tw: dying?
About a year or so ago I worked at a different store for the same company and came across a plethora of unusual characters. (still do but no one has ever beat the customers that I experienced there) There was this one lady who came to pick up a prescription, and unfortunately it was out of stock. She was furious and threw a major tantrum and cursed out everyone and just made a huge scene because that she needed the medication. I thought this lady was fucking psycho. The kicker is that the person ahead of her got the last of that medication. Originally I thought it wasnāt that serious because we were getting more of the medication tomorrow, but then she broke down and revealed that her husband was dying and that she really needed the medication. There wasnāt anything we could do but recommend other pharmacies in the area, but it broke my heart. Iāll admit. It was wrong for me to judge her and I often questioned why I did but it wasnāt until I took psychology last semester that I realized what happened.
The Fundamental Attribution Error is basically our mistake of explaining someoneās behavior as part of their personality or their disposition rather than what external factors might be in play (Iām probably explaining this wrong but I only took psychology for one semester).
This doesnāt mean that every customer is excused for acting like a douchebag (yes Susan Iām referring to you who threatened to climb over the counter and grab your prescription because we wouldnāt waive your $1 copay i saw that you had $40 + in your wallet!!!) but knowing this has made me cautious.
