Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

I see. I know a lot of these insurance companies are just heartless bastards. Most of the work they used to do was trying to find reasons to not allow people to even get insurance. Now they're trying to find reasons not to pay for various meds and treatments because they can't deny anyone insurance anymore.

Ugh... my Dr's office for wednesday keeps on calling but I don't have reception, and I can't like stop what I'm doing and walk outside in practically freezing temps to talk to say "yes I know appointment wed, show up ealy... just like your 2 messages in the past 30 min said... can I go now?
like omg... it's during the work week... What makes them think I'd be able to pick up?!? Most places don't allow you to have a phone on you anyway in my area.
omg.... first they called to remind me of my appointment... then they called to try and bribe me to change my appointment earlier (like uh, not everyone can do that., and I wasn't about to go to work for an hour, just to leave, be gone for 3-4 hours, then return for a few hours, to then drive back home basically again.... screw that.

Do they just not trust that you got the message unless you call them back and tell them you did, or unless you answer the phone when they call? They should know you're at work. Or if they expect you to answer, they should call you after work is over.
Hey all! Thought I'd say hi...
Anxiety over possibly losing my job. Need a distraction.
On a good note it's beautiful out and had an amazing Sunday. Yay.

had mom call them... apparently they 'accidentally' double booked every 15 minute period in an 11-12 hour work day and wondered if I'd move my appointment up... no... no I won't... because I can't... because I wasn't going to work for an hour, then waste my day there, then drive back to work for a few, then drive back home where the office was...
seriously the day's going to be a waste, dr's either not going to do anything, or it'll be a rushed exam... only thing that will be saving is if virtually most of the 64 patients before me will have like a 'doing great doc, yep see ya later, I'm out of here *shakes hand*' doc onto next patient type of visit.
Don't wanna hijack thread and make about me. A PM would be nice. But basically- I am at a school where I'm not adapting well, lots of complaints about me as a teacher. Now kid recorded student hitting someone in my class. I'm scared of repercussions.

Regular public intercity. I could stick it out til June and find something else. However, I've ruined my reputation, and not sure I'll even make it that far. I put in my two week notice then rescinded. I have always been crazy but since quitting my first job to move, I've quit twice impulsively at two different schools, and have done the craziest things I've done in my life that have seriously affected me and I'm scared I'll end up even homeless and jobless with no career after 10 years.

I feel I have no choice. I put self in hospital 3 times and have to pay. Need insurance. Need money. Paying two rents right now. I've complicated my life beyond belief.
But what will it do? I'm just scared one day I'll snap and do something that will get me fired on the spot. I've slammed a kids desk when trying to get him to leave my class and he refused. It's not the kids. I'm the problem.
I've promised myself to not lose it. But I'm not succeeding even when I try to just be calm. I'm not doing what I'm supposed to be doing. I don't know what's wrong with me.
My biggest regret in life now is becoming a teacher. Although I enjoyed it a lot last year finally. Even if I wasn't great. I loved a lot of my kids last year.
A hot bath is a good idea. Just try to relax a little bit. Maybe that will help with everything. You had an extremely stressful week last week. I'm sure that's at least part of the cause of all this.
