I love such people who spend their entire lives reading DCUM and comparing posts.

Now you tell me, what's the difference between starting now and starting then when the question is regarding tips to save money around the house? I'm changing details just so friends and neighbors can't figure us out. Got it? I think I said that 100 times already.

I have an idea: GET OFF THE INTERNET AND GET A JOB. If you can spend this much time on the internet, get an internet based job.
There, problem solved.
No one cares about your disability in this thread. It was THE issue in the other thread. (I vigorously defended you in that thread by the way. Here, not so much. See how that is? Two separate issues.)

You clearly haven't read the whole thread. The OP's husband apparently "can't" get fired, but also can't get another job.

Yup! In fact, he "can't get fired in a million years" - there is, like, a separate category of unfirability invented around him. He is so extremely specialized that everybody wants to hire him. After all, as everyone knows, the more specialized one is, the more jobs are out there that perfectly match his exact specialization.

Despite that, however, he has to answer every call from whoever is in any way connect to his work, no matter when and where. Why does he have to be so forthcoming if his salary can't be increased, he can't be fired, and he can't leave remains somewhat of a mystery.

OP, you are crazy. Disconnect now and focus on your baby. You're acting like a cornered animal.

And they aren't in this area, so I don't know what the big fear of being outed is, unless there's a huge contingency of people in Ohio reading DCUM?

This. My mom has a part-time internet based job becauase of a disability that doesnt allow her out of the house some days. It is very flexible and if she's having a rough day and isn't up for working, she.doesnt have to. Seriously OP, if you can spend this much time coming up with threads and responding all the time, you can probably work 10 or 15 hours a week from home. It.doesn't seem like much, but the money adds up. And before you go off on me for writing while at work....I'm not. I start a new job last week and quit my old job last friday.

Woah woah woah....chipotle lady is the lady on the cleveland thread?!? Is this true?

[Anonymous]

What threads did OP start besides the Chiptole stinky eye (sic) thread? Links?

I thought CL lived in the DC area (from the safety post )

You do realize that every other poster is acting like an animal attacking right?

[Anonymous]

No, the safety post she said "think Tysons." Not that is WAS Tysons. Yes, I do in fact spend too much time reading her threads... I don't remember where, but at one point she said she wasn't here. I don't know if she's the Cleveland poster though!!! Not trying to start anything there.

I'm going to have to agree. Even if this is CL, from following this thread, most of the commenters seem way to involved and spiteful.

I think most of the commenters are just bored and finding entertainment in how wacky she is. I know that's not right, but reading all these threads has provided entertainment. Plus it seems like she gets off on the drama etc.

I'd agree if she didn't bring it all on herself with the insults and excuses.
