I’m really just learning to play to make my own pop and EDM, maybe some pop rock and punk stuff eventually. Point being, idk if it’ll ever be necessary to learn when to use the bar, what do you guys think?

I didn't play modern at the time, it seems like a strong card for sure but what deck was it in that was dominating? Was it everywhere? What happened?

My wife and I are getting divorced after 19 years of marriage. She moved out 2 weeks ago and is living with her parents. The kids are with me. One of my daughters was at grandma's house this week visiting her mom and grandma mentioned to her this is her second marriage. My daughter mentioned it to me when she got home. I phoned my wife and she told me her high school boyfriend (he was 18, she was 16) took off to Mexico and got legally married. When they broke up a year later, they just broke up, never divorced. I have called my attorney to get some answers on this, his legal aide said he is out until Tuesday. It is killing me. I basically have 2 questions. Was I even married? We wed in the U.S., not Mexico and divorcing in the U.S. And two, we have a beach house in Cabo San Lucas. Is that now owned by 3 people (her first husband) and will that affect the sale when we try to sell?

Also, no, I did not file for divorce because of this. It was just growing apart. I actually think it is kind of funny as long as it doesn't mess things up.

Not 100% sure this is the right sub but I needed to share this somewhere so please redirect me if I got the wrong address.

I’m a 20yo student, self employed, and work odd hours, so I told my landlady she’s free to give my number to anyone in the building who needs a babysitter or tutor for their kids. That’s how I met EM. (Entitled mom.) EM has A, B and C, who are 9, 4 and 1 years old. I will be MN, my name.

She asked me to come over for dinner to meet the kids before I start working. (Picking them up once every other week, feeding and putting to bed.) Ok. I go over there twice to eat with them and play with the youngest. I didn’t charge her cause hey, free dinner. But we have agreed to 10€ an hour.

During my second visit, A was asked to set the table. “NO. MN HAS TO DO IT! My babysitter has to do EVERYTHING I say!” The mother did not respond to this. Not even a flinch. I was the one to tell A that I’m not her maid and she should listen to her mother giving her a simple chore. Ok, she did it.

Later, EM tells me she also needs me to turn off nightmode on my phone so she can call me at night. I told her no, but maybe my roommate can do some night shifts. (I doubt it, we both have the same disability and it’s crucial that we get sleep.) EM proceeds to say she needs one person to always be on the clock cause it’s so traumatic for her kids to switch babysitter. Oh, also I needed to take my Thursday classes next year JUST IN CASE she needs me on a Thursday.

At this point I told her we need to agree to some hours NOW, and I am not obligated to work outside of that schedule. I gotta be able to schedule other work and hospital visits, and I am definitely not skipping classes. She agreed, I got all my hours through 2018.

On my way out, she complimented my flared jeans, and told me she was looking for similar pants for A. (Important.) I told her they can easily be made from a pair of old jeans. She went on a little rant about how she doesn’t have the time, but maybe I could? I said I’ll take a paid sewing job.

Fast forward to my birthday weekend, 2 weeks ago. The day before my birthday, I recived a text from a new number:

“Hey, MN, can I come over today? From A.”

I ask the mom what’s up, and apparently she thought it was completely appropriate to give her 9 year old my number. She had just decided that on a Saturday, I was completely ready to take in her kid, do a sewing project with her, feed her lunch out of my pocket and entertain her. And she did not plan on paying. It was part of getting to know her kids.

I said the kid can come over if she needs a sitter, but I will charge her for babysitting and lunch and will continue working. Mother says ok and she’ll tell her kid to come over. Never showed up. It wasn’t a huge inconvenience since I didn’t have plans to leave the house, but definitely annoying.

10pm I get a text from the child: “I had something better to do today but I’ll be there tomorrow.”

My response: “You cannot come tomorrow, it’s my birthday and I’m having a party.”

A: “You’re excused.”

WTF. I agreed to do a job during specific hours, not to be your unpaid servant, lady.
