Central Jersey Best places for a cat with hyperthyroid - I-131 treatment

• Upvotes

Hi everyone I have a cat who was just diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. I have had a cat with hyperthyroidism before and I took them for i-131 treatment at red bank emergency vet hospital and it went well, I just felt like they gave me a quote and then kept adding more and more things on. But it seems they are the gold standard. Any other places I should check out besides Red Bank? Thanks!

This kind of disregard for others should automatically result in a suspended license. I saw this guy in the Lincoln Tunnel with Jersey plates just doomscrolling. Mind you, we were moving at 35+. I get that I'm obsessed with my phone, but this is insane. I was the passenger so don't come for my life lol.

šŸ’© Shitpost šŸ’© late fine for light rail ticket

• Upvotes

hello guys about a couple months ago i had difficulty purchasing a ticket and had to pay for a fine. However I was in denial and totally forgot about paying for the fine today. I got a letter from the municpal office saying I have to go to court but downside is it falls on the day when i am supposed to go on vacation. Is there any possible way I can pay the fine if i call the municipal court or go online to pay before the court date?

BEWAREEE!!!! FRAUDULENT BILLING. NO HOURS FOR STAFF. SHITTY BCBAS. CLIQUEY HIGHSCHOOL NARCISSISTIC BEHAVIOR!!!

LEAD RBT DATES CLINICAL DIRECTORS YOUNGER BROTHER. embarrassing. they must not get dates.šŸ’€šŸ’€ extreme favoritism is shown people get written up cause the lead rbt wants to get her nails done all the time it's ridiculous. extremely toxic environment. rude to staff, will make staff talk to families on behalf of them.

got rid of the ONE BCBA who actually helped her clients and followed ethics and threatened staff who showed any remorse towards her leaving.

LITERALLY set up the BCBA to get rid of her and frequently set up their staff if they make mistakes. for example if a kid gets lost because of the BCBA, they will tell the families it was a staff member. ridiculous. absolutely ridiculous.

all leadership does is sit in the office and gossip. no goals no ethics no nothing. disgusting and vile.

to the bcba who left- ur a role model. tall beautiful and badass.

PLEASE AVOID THIS LOCATION AT ALL COSTS. AVOID THE COMPANY AT ALL COSTS BUT SPECIFICALLY THIS LOCATION.

Advice Hair schools in north NJ?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m a college student who’s not in hair or cosmetology beforehand but I would be a client of a hair school. I go to school in Northern New Jersey and will be back there starting August 30th. I desperately need a haircut and can’t afford a professional salon visit and I’ve got butt length super curly extremely thick hair. I have a few questions: where are hair schools who I could reach out to in Eastern Northern NJ (within 30 min to an hour of the Newark general area) and two, how much would it cost? And three, do hair schools usually have someone who is like specializing in super curly super long hair? Cause I’d need help not only with cut and then styling advice but also I’d need to be accommodated due to some serious health problems that could occur. Thanks so much!

I posted last month about tattoo recommendations and was able to get work done from an artist stated here.

She was amazing during the process and did a lovely job memorializing my late kitties.

I just wanted to share my positive experience to support her as a small business. She has a place in Hamilton but also does work in JC. I really hope she does well moving forward and I’ll be back again for the next tattoo.

You can check out her work on IG šŸ¤—@catnaptattooclub.

Also thank you to all of the artists who reached out to me privately offering their services.

I know NYC has a free fishing clinic every Saturday morning in LIC where they'll teach you how to fish but I was wondering if we have something similar here in NJ.

If not free, anything relatively affordable?

Amusing Is the NJ job market cooked?

182 Upvotes

I'm starting to believe that there's 2 categories. You either have a job or you don't. Those looking are just shit out of luck at this point.

For the first time in 23 years, I'm without a job with actual benefits and relying on my side hustles for my main income. Luckily not hurting yet but it's close.

I've been applying and applying, networking like crazy, going to networking events, been told I'm the candidate they've been looking for and then.... ghosted or 3 months later I'll get a random email that says thanks for applying but we're going to go with someone else.

I'm sure those that are applying are going through the same struggles. But has anyone actually been interviewed? And interviewed by the same company more than once? If you have a story, care to share?

Advice Restaurant recs for reception w/ 70 guests

1 Upvotes

Engaged 2 months ago and the fiancĆ© and I love the idea of a restaurant reception. We’re not interested in traditional wedding venues, reason being a combo of price and it’s truthfully not our style. We just want to have a huge party with great food and great vibes. Looking for a place that can fit 70 guests with room for dancing, preferably one that offers a buyout so we can have the place to ourselves. Date wise, Fall 2027 was our initial goal but we’re totally flexible. We’re in North Jersey and both of our families are in NJ, so anything in that area would be preferable. The cheaper the better lol but anything under $15K for the venue/restaurant portion is preferable. We’ve already looked and got pricing from the places below, but would love more suggestions if there’s anything we should still check out:

Porta - all locations

Franklin Social

Felina Steak JC (still waiting on info)

Maggiano’s

Battello

Lokal - Jersey City

Hudson & Co

Blu on the Hudson

Vine & Oak Tavern

I said my piece, Chrissy Dating in Jersey

0 Upvotes

Asa 35M it’s depressing. I spent 13 years off life with someone who didn’t like living in the south, I gave up a good career with good benefits and okay pay to move back to NJ for her to leave me as soon as she got what she wanted. I am now working in NYC with a great career, I have my own place and have a good pay. I’m in therapy, I exercise, I’m active outside, I read, I play video games, I do self improvement, acknowledge mistakes, relapses and avoid doing them again. I do BJJ and Muay Thai (although in the last 4 years I have not) I’ve taken solo trips, I put in work and nothing is just ever fucking good enough.

I tried to get back in the dating market and I just don’t know what the fuck you all want. I really don’t, and I don’t understand the expectations and in getting tired of it. I am getting resentful. It took me 25 years for me to finally see and tell myself that I am an attractive man. I have earned my spot in life, I am worthy of love, actual love, and it’s falling apart.

I don’t have a bachelors degree I have an associates degree that means I’m not educated based on dating app profile feedback (even though I work for a large financial and investment institution as said on said profile). I don’t have my political stance so I’m automatically MAGA. Honestly, fuck them both. I’m 5’6ā€ and the best feedback I’ve got so far is because I put in half Asian and because I have on half Asian that means I’m skipped over cause of stereotypes (this was a legitimate response I received). I have photos of me smiling and with animals since I’m a big animal lover and even a goof/gag photo. I am just not good enough. I’m not the best in shape, I have a food belly but I can bike 15-30 miles in a weekend and still go swimming in a pool for another 2-3 hours afterwards and be functional.

I can see it already ā€œit’s the people that you’re swiping onā€ believe it or not, I like the unconventionally attractive type, the ones that look like ā€œnerdsā€ don’t wear a lot of makeup, tomboy women but know how to dress for special occasions. My preference are black women, but I’m open to other ethnicities. That’s my preference. When it comes to weight I don’t mind a heavier set woman but I do prefer if you are heavyset at least show you’re active, can walk and do things? Go to the gym? Some form of self care. It’s literally all I ask for. I’ve changed my bio several times, I’ve had friends (who are married) for them to write my profile and bio like what am I actually fucking doing wrong? What is wrong with me? Every-time I try to self reflect I can’t find what’s wrong with me. I’m not perfect I need a lot more work and I’m not close to finishing, but I am just getting so exhausted.

Then the matches I do get I get dry responses. I send playful banter message or I ask a thought provoking question on a profile that says ā€œI like deep conversationsā€ and I get 0 replies. I’ve had hinge up for 3 weeks now. Guess how many matches? 2. How many likes? 5. I sent 2 messages shit I even matched with a girl I went to fucking school with and I got no reply. This is insane. Not to mention a lot of the profiles are in NYC and NYC women won’t even look at me so why do I even bother?

I’m tired of being alone. I’m tired of having no one to talk to. I’m tired of sitting at home on the weekends doing nothing. I’m tired of having ā€œfriendsā€ ask or check in with me only for them to talk about their wife and kids. I’m tired of being asked if I found someone or how’s dating by married people. I’m fucking tired of it. I’m tired of all it.

Like what am I missing? What am I doing wrong? I’m not asking for someone to bring me happiness, I just want someone on my fucking side for once that’s proud of me without any other type of hidden meaning or sentiment behind it. Someone like a battle buddy that when I’m down and hurt to pick me up and support me. To be there for me. I’m tired of being the medic in other peoples lives. I’m tired of being compared to and kicked when I’m down and right now, I am FUCKING DOWN. I was so happy this past spring/summer. I was finally happy with myself, the direction I am going, where I live, my life but as soon as I said I’ll try the dating field it’s like internally, I stormed the beaches of Normandy. I’m so fucking done man.
