2023.06.03 03:52 EssayDistinct Do I really need to comply the C.O.E. for my new employer?
Hello. I already signed and accepted a new company and one of the requirements in pre-employment is COE. I'm afraid if makakapag comply ba ako neto.
I am working in a startup company before and nagkaproblema yung company, delay ang salary 3 months (since march) so naghanap ako ng bagong employer. Yung startup company is hindi naka list dito sa ph and gusto ko na talaga umalis dahil nga I feel baka ganto scheme nila like patikimin muna ng salary sa first few months then i-delay yung salary hanggang sa umalis yung tao? Haha. Hindi ko sure pero wala na kong tiwala kaya umalis na ko, ang dahilan lang nila nung march delay lang ma-transfer, ganun din kasi during january and february, delay ng 1 week or 2 weeks so inexpect ko baka ganun lang din. Pero nung april and may na, lagi sinasabi na delay lang and nagkaproblema lang sa investor and waiting lang ma-itransfer yung fund.
And last week, nagpasa na ako ng resignation letter and nilagay ko rin doon na mag rerender ako ng 30 days if ever may need ako i-comply or may kelangan ako iturnover. Ang gusto ng ceo is ituloy ko pa rin yung work ko until my last day. So tapusin ko yung mga ibang tasks kahit na hindi na sakin yun. Devops kasi ako doon so more on pag manage ng infra yung ginagawa ko, ang gusto nya ituloy ko yung tasks ng backend, umalis na rin kasi yung backend dev, nag awol nalang dahil di naman din siya binayaran.
Kaya pala 30 days, kasi nakalagay sa contract ko na need 30 days prior notice, pero di ko alam kung kelangan ko ba sundin yun. Nakakainis kasi di naman sure if babayaran ba ako neto sa backpay na worth 4 months ng salary ko. Natanong ko rin yung iba kong ka-work before, ang sabi lang sakin di ko na raw need mag render pag ganyan. Pero natatakot ako kasi baka di ako makakuha ng COE after. Pero di ko rin kasi alam kung bibigyan ba ko ng COE pagtapos ko mag render baka bigla pala ko takbuhan.
Kaya nag dadalawang isip ako mag render dahil wala na akong pera, onsite ang gusto nya doon sa office. Medyo malayo yung office, QC yung office at Parañaque pa ako nakatira. Ang tagal ng byahe, umaabot ng 2.5 to 3 hrs yung byahe papasok lalo na pag rush hour. Ang mahal din ng pagkain. Lugi ako sa transpo at food. Before kasi malapit lang yung office, Pasay lang. Tsaka hybrid, 2 times lang need pumasok sa office ngayon kasi araw araw, 5 times.
3rd job ko yung startup company. And yung 2nd job ko naman nag work ako sa government agency as contractual, until now, wala pa ko nakukuhang COE and backpay, 6 months na wala pa rin.
So di ko sure if possible ba next time nalang ibigay yung coe if ever kaya yung sa 1st job na COE nalang ang i-comply ko muna?
That's all, thank you.

2023.06.03 03:51 ljsweet Ay, Pulte!! Ooohk-Ooohk!
I hear the word is you’re wanting to disrupt the charity industry!! Now hypothetically speaking, If I were to fall onto a wealth load of cash with my 6,900 shares of BBBY, I will be buying/building a casino. I’ll be pursuing my dream of a charity casino. One that gives its profits towards great causes! I want to bring charity and gambling together. If that dream would ever happen to come true you’re going to be helping out anyway you can!
I do want casinos all around the world one day. They’ll be there to rival other casinos. Hopefully, take them down. The charity casinos would, majority of years speaking, have a big bag of money to use for great causes! On top of that, the good deeds from this dream hypothetically speaking, would raise the spirits of the people of this planet! It’ll show the world there is something out that cares for the planet and the people in a big way. It may take a lifetime for it to all happen but it’s for future generations!!! I want our generation to show future generations where the bar is at.
I for one want to leave the planet better off than when it was given to me.
Saying that I’m all geared up and ready to explore Uranus!

2023.06.03 03:49 Turkzillas_gobble Fauxlivia, our most vexing character (long)
I know what you're thinking: I can fix her.
It's easy to love her; her biggest story arc depends on her being irresistible, and even after she gets exposed, almost everybody wants to know what she thought of them in her seemingly sincere spy journal. Even Olivia lamented that her Redverse counterpart was like a better version of herself, surrounded by friends and loved ones and with a much healthier work-life balance, and it's clear that F is just a lot more charming than O is. F loves her job, while O is mostly gritty determination; after some very early-episodes sexy times with Scott, O hardly ever seems like she's enjoying herself for quite a while, she's too busy slurping down that flatworm juice, getting shit done.
But of course F loves her job; almost all the Fringe folks over there are having a lot more light-on-their-feet fun than our Fringe folks, probably because in her words, "we're heroes". Another way to put that is that the Redverse is more of a police state, and it's a lot more fun to be the boot than the face, as long as they don't look to hard into the more classified shit their boss is up to, like what happened to their Broyles. Brushing off things like this happens a lot on this show, and nowhere so much as done by F. She may be quicker with a smile, but that's how she reacts to just about everything: fun smiles, flirty smiles, mocking smiles, nervous smiles. F rolls with it all. It's a different armour than O uses, but it's still armour. I can see her having the same lament about never having learned how to be vulnerable, if there was anyone around her worth confessing it to.
In the spirit of so many misdeeds on this show never really being answered for, at no point does F apologize for (or much reckon with at all) the pain she caused people on her deep-cover mission, even after the Rebootening when the damage is considerably less dramatic and there's a real necessity for her to work with these people directly. The closest thing to remorse she expresses is when she's caught and tries to appeal to Peter's romantic side; nobody's really buying it, and I don't think she expects him to. After this does she even interact with our side again until the new timeline, where patching things up with Walter and O was nice but a little too easy? The original F's more soul-crushing compromises make her harder to root for, but they also make her more compelling as a character. F has done some awful things, and while she never really has to answer for them directly - namely any honest reckoning with Peter and O - at least she eats some shit over it once the pregnancy comes out.
There's a lot of fallout from that, starting with how the man she seemed quite happy with, who had every intention of marrying her, fucks off without even asking for an explanation. Her co-workers, who she's otherwise relaxedly friendly with, start gossiping and speculating about it when they aren't satisfied with what little she's willing to tell them. They care, but we see a limitation to those friendly relationships: Lincoln and Charlie are just too much of a couple of bros for it to occur to them that there might be horrible shit behind this unexpected, unwanted pregnancy. Maybe she was raped? Maybe it's reality-bending interdimensional sci-fi shit? No wonder she's not telling you guys anything!
Then, just as she's weighing this pregnancy against her own sci-fi medical mortality, she gets abducted and abused (you could've asked, Walternate!) and made to give birth under some pretty awful circumstances, not the least of which is her belief that it's going to mean death for her and/or the baby. It all must've messed with her hard, if she's pleading with Lincoln to save the full-term baby she didn't even want yesterday. As brutally intense as this thrilling, messy little arc is on the show, I can see why some people would absolutely hate it. It's a thorny grab-bag of sexual and reproductive politics plotted with such bro-ey insensitivity I was shocked to find the “Bloodline” writing is credited to two women.
Ultimately she gets through it all fine, and oddly unscarred by her traumatic experience. F becomes a happy single mom through the most bizarre circumstances and doesn't seem to mind how she got there, implied to be "taken care of" by Walternate, though she still goes to extremely dangerous work at Fringe. If something happened to her at work, I bet he'd be fine with it. He might even be counting on it. Strange omission here: F went to our side on an existential wartime mission against amoral monsters who were conspiring to destroy her universe, and saw enough to know that's not true, but this didn't really change anything about her or Walternate's goals. He kept on with his war, she kept on with her job.
Then the Rebootening happens. Same Fauxlivia, same smiling, nothing-personal animosity, but minus the baby and the, uh, sex crime. There's a lot to get into there; we could argue whether this counts as rape, but at the very least, it's a little beyond your standard honeypot spy shit. If the sexes were reversed I think we'd see it pretty clearly, but here, I think the pregnancy does make it a little different, since that happens to her, and not to the man she's deceiving, and despite some nonsense storytelling teases about Peter having to choose his preferred Olivia (come on, show) the baby is never used to further manipulate him. I wanted justice for her, and for what she'd done, in the previous timeline and I think the thing that feels most “lost” about changing it is never seeing how that would work. But it's hard to miss that things just shake out better for her all around in the new one. Whatever other reservations I have about the s4 timeline, the "cleaning up" of F was the one thing it did that worked for pure palatability. Maybe s3 F couldn't be rehabilitated, but I dunno, Quark is much worse than this and Deep Space 9 fans love him as a rascally scamp.
Each version of F gets one season plus a bit to work out some approximation of an arc, but after the deep-cover mission they're all kinda B-stories. Perhaps they even came at an unfair cost, front-n-centre time that could've been used for Astrid (who hardly ever got any) or even O herself, who never seemed to me to lack for screen time but maybe Blair Brown's lament about this turning into a show about the men wasn't wrong; Peter's story was always about the same Peter and O is split between two, arguably four people which could make for character work that's more wide than deep.
But after watching s4 and settling on being mildly dissatisfied about what was becoming of O, I found myself feeling more weirdly haunted by what was going on with F. She went through (and did) so much shit in s3, you could make a whole show out of this person's crazy-ass life and I would watch that all day. In s4, she's a fun foil for either version of O, but there isn't a lot more there anymore. We can believe that Peter's estimation of her would be mostly positive – after all, she's mostly O, and without the previous F's moral compromises – but I don't think he would've said that in s3.

2023.06.03 03:49 okidoki-poki i usually try to go out of my way for my friends esp on birthdays but no ones said anything about mine
im turning legal age this weekend and ive been extremely depressed for the past year. i never liked celebrating my birthday, its around the time of a traumatic event happening to me and i can never truly have a good time without flashbacks.
my best friend is the only one really trying to get my spirits up, they bought me a cake and they wanna take me out drinking and i appreciate it a lot that they care so much to make me feel special. i mentioned my birthday to my other friends once but nothing came out of it and it just makes me feel bad for being a bummer all the time, which is probably why theyve never ask to do anything fun with me like going to the movies.
i never ask for anything, i always offer to pay and drive even tho i dont have a job and no one else really can drive. but if anyone else were to pay for me or anything they just get kinda upset and i feel like a burden. i just wanna feel appreciated sometimes. i dont think they notice what theyre doing but idk. i always try texting happy birthday on midnight and i live sorta far so i surprised friend at their office on their birthday to give them a cake and small gifts. i cant take anyone out bc im really low on money but i didnt wanna leave anyone hanging on their birthday.
my family is doing a bday dinner but we’re celebrating with two other relatives, and its the day after my birthday, though im okay with it.
i think im just really tired and i cant help but feel really upset. i feel like i ruined all my relationships from being depressed but i just wanna feel a little special once in a while. im trying really hard and finally got a job but its just been sucky lately.
thanks for reading though

2023.06.03 03:48 Fig_Afraid How to talk to my dad about his alcohol use
Hi this is my first time in this subreddit and I’m not sure if this is the kind of thing to ask about here, but I figured I’d give it a shot. My dad drinks every night, at least 2 glasses of wine, usually more. He drinks every night, and has for as long as I can remember, so probably at least the last 20 years (I’m 20). Growing up I didn’t think much of it because it seemed so normal, and since I was kid I didn’t think it was my business to get involved, especially because he functions pretty ok when he’s drinking. But he’s tried to quit a couple times, and everytime it only lasts about 1-2 days and he gets really stressed and angry, and by the next night he’s drinking again. He’s pushing 60 and I’m starting to get worried that he won’t ever stop drinking, and I think I should maybe talk to him about it. We’re not a super communicative family, so I don’t have a lot of practice bringing up issues with him lol. I also don’t think he would define his behavior as alcoholism.
Any ideas on how to initiate a conversation with him without it sounding like some kind of attack? I just don’t know what to do and I’m scared he’ll get defensive if I bring this up to him.

2023.06.03 03:48 Haviaiden [ALL] Just a little idea about the timeline
Hi everyone, since the timeline is something official (or not) and can be modified by fans. I've got a little idea I'd like to share :
--Wind Waker happened because the hero of time never came back, so why shouldn't it be because of Majora's mask? The hero of time disappeared into another world and may have died there, so he never came back. (if we change the ending ofc)
--If we change the ending of Wind Waker and have Ganondorf restore Hyrule, that could lead to maybe Twilight princess? (and so Spirit track and phantom hourglass doesn't exist)
Would that mean we could already put 2 timelines together and it would be easier to place BOTW for example?
I probably don't have all the details, but let me know what you think !

2023.06.03 03:47 thebigdude02 I’m unsure if my fish is depressed or not.
So my great grandfather passed 2 weeks ago and I had to drive from pa to lower texas. It was an 1300 mile trip. I’m in Texas for another 2. So for me to come down I brought him. I had to put him in. A 5 gal bucket with a lid on it. With his heater and his sponge filter in it for the trip. When I got home to texas and put him back in his tank he kinda didn’t like me anymore lol. He is slowly being nicer to me but he just lazy around all the time now. Before he was more active and swimming around. Now he just stays on his betta leaf and now this week he is laying on the gravel. He looks perfectly healthy and all so I was wondering if he was depressed or just stressed a lot from the trip?

2023.06.03 03:45 bag-of-gummy-dicks I like the changes SSO has made, here's why.
Yes, this topic may seem a little controversial and my opinion may be downright stupid to some, however I have my reasons why I like SSO better as it is today than how it was say, five or six years ago. I was playing originally when I was 12, and watched it evolve into what a game it is now.
It's nostalgic to tack up my Gen1 Friesian and go found a bouncy ride into Dundull, however the same is enjoyable if I were to tack up my JWH or my Belgian Warmblood and do the same thing. If I'm honest, I find it more enjoyable to get on my Belgian bareback and simply trot. The horse feels real, feels less blocky or stiff as the older generation. Believe me, I love the older generation of horses and I collect them like Pokemon cards. Yet, these new horses have life breathed into them. These horses aren't without their flaws, ahem the Jorvik Friesian, however it's better than to have a gen 1 Arabian simply swaying and swinging it's head every few minutes. There's variety. There's more life than there was.
Speaking of horses, let's talk about the new leveling system. I personally LOVE IT! It's like actual horse training, not doing a race to level up and get faster. No, it's leveling up to teach your horse something brand new. I recently bought H&M All In, and getting to train this horse from the very start is actually quite thrilling. In my little head I have Ice pop (his name) learning to be a bareback eventer. We just practice little bits of dressage or go over low fences, or complete our jumping regime to go faster. My guy loves to run, and will listen when he's called or commanded to. That couldn't happen say, two years ago. I personally enjoy the updates.
The art style and storyline. Yes, these both have changed and at the same time have aged like a fine wine to me. The storyline is something that I crave more of, something that I wish I could know more of instead of waiting on its next installment. I want to know what's going to happen next, which doesn't exactly happen to me when I play MMO games. The art style has vastly improved and although I loved my nostalgic Minecraft headed James, I personally like this little rat-like gremlin instead. I understand how people could dislike it, indeed. However, it's personally a plus in my book.
A downside to the game is unfortunately some of it's player base. Just today I'm trotting around while listening in to Global, and I see people talking ill about pride month. These are kids telling other kids that they're going to hell if they don't accept God, and I find that very sad actually. As an adult, I'm watching these kids bully other kids that support pride. And because why? Because their parents spewed hate onto them so they must believe it too. Kids brains are like sponges, they soak up everything. Feed them something positive so one sponge doesn't feed rot to another.
The game is not without it's bugs and glitches, and unfortunately I feel as if they're becoming a little ambitious with what they have at hand. The game engine is a bit older, and just today the entire of Doyle's Abbey was.. missing? I went to check it out heading to Fort Pinta and I just sat and stared. Let alone my horse clipping into the ground and back... However, a bigger issue is the customer support I've seen. The creators believe their game is impenetrable and it's our fault for things that occur, such as someone genuinely hacking into one of our accounts or something going wrong with tack or clothes. It's unfortunate because the take itself is very fun, but of course the "adults" if you want to call them that take all the fun away...
Just my thoughts on what the game has become as of late. What are some of yours?

2023.06.03 03:44 MumziDarlin Nautical Rehearsal Dinner Flags for Glasses/Cups?
| Hello! We are hosting a rehearsal dinner for our two lovelies getting married, and they both love the ocean/beach. So we are having a casual nautical theme. It is a distance away so we are having the food catered, but the venue they wanted/we are using is in a beautiful building at a city-run park by a lake - it has bathrooms, but no kitchen, so we are opting for compostable everything, except for some handsome stemless ceramic wine goblets and melamine cups for the kids. Those are intended for everyone to take with them. We don't want assigned seats, so we thought maybe we should make some kind of name "flags" - I'm not really thrilled with the idea of lots of flags sticking out of the tops of the glasses - maybe on the kids' cups? - does anyone have an idea for the adult/ceramic pieces (for ID-ing them, and for letting them know that they are for them to use/bring to the tables - there will also be other compostable cups there.) I'm at a loss, so appreciate the help. I am handy, with lots of crafting/power tool experience and am not afraid of a challenge. (In case it helps, the colors are neutrals and seaglass blue-green with pops of color from the flowers. - we aren't doing an "Ahoy There" type of theme - just referencing their love of the ocean.).

2023.06.03 03:39 WatercressDouble1520 Starting Flagyl for BV, which probiotic should I buy?
I’ve had BV “problems” since around 2020. I originally tried treating myself at home with Monistat-7 thinking it was a yeast infection, and boy did that cause a catastrophic chain of vaginal issues since. Long story short, I recently went to a PA OBGYN (not a Dr) and she called me with my results testing positive for BV. I asked her if Boric Acid would be good for me since these are the symptoms I’ve had since 2020. Odd odor, strange discharge and burning during any sort of penetration. This has all come in flares, ups and downs over-time. She said she wanted me to try either Flagyl or metrogel (?) And I opted with the pill due to being so sensitive to anything topical down there. Mind you, I am 90% sure I tried both of these back in 2020. I’m sensitive to soap, lotion, razors, wax, creams, and even deodorant during shorts weather for my big-thigh girls. So basically, I’m doing the antibiotic and asked her if I could take probiotics too. She said yes and directed me to the nearest grocery store and said there should be a refrigerated section and to pick one that supports Flora. I’m curious tho, how should I be taking these and is there a better brand/type? I’ve heard a lot about lactobacillus acidophilus and lactobacillus reuteri which seem to be unrefrigerated. I’ve read either to take them 2-3 hours after the antibiotic or after the weekly round of Flagyl is done. Any advice is great! :) TYIA

2023.06.03 03:35 babyxxpigeon17 A Niagara vacation
It was so terribly cold. Snow was falling, and it was almost dark, when out of the blue, my wife called me at work. "We're going to Niagara Falls for the weekend. I got us an awesome deal!"
We had both been working at our first "full-fledged" jobs for a year and had reached that moment after graduation when you suddenly realize you can't make that impact on the world your student enthusiasm once promised. At first, I just sighed. It was the dead of January, and I had already expended all my energy on a week of inconsequential stress. I just wanted to collapse on the couch for two days. Sarah felt a similar weary exhaustion. I could tell. Her tone was more hopeful than excited, but she had dreaded the routine we were sinking into and was trying her best to pull us free.
I looked to the ceiling and adjusted my telephone headset. At that time I was working at Stats Canada on the tele-query desk. I took a deep breath and, as convincingly as possible, said, "Sounds good." I don't think she bought it, but we went nonetheless.
This was Niagara Falls before the casinos when there was a very distinct off-season. When we got to the hotel, we were given the details of our "lovers' special". One dinner to be used either Friday or Saturday, two breakfasts, a roll of tokens for the arcade, 10% off some "4D" movie ride experience, and a 2-for-1 coupon to Max Tussaud's. I guessed it was Madame's nephew? We also got a bottle of sparkling wine in our room and chocolate treats on our pillows. I was impressed. It sounded good.
When we got into our room and saw the "bottle" of wine - basically an aeroplane-sized glass and half - and the chocolates - "fun wrapped" Oh Henry's left over from Halloween - we both started to laugh. The tone for two wonderful days had been set. We decided to cash in on our dinner coupon right away.
The restaurant off the lobby had hopes of being better. There were huge panoramic windows that promised a view of the gorge. Unfortunately, they had some winter moisture problems that day, and it felt like we were defrosting amid the dripping streaks and foggy patches. The decor was your standard booths and tables though the "romantic" lighting was unique. Dollar store battery-powered tea lights were lodged inside thick tumbler glasses and shed a muted pleasantness in a "what a great idea for a craft" sort of way. I had a feeling they were created by our waitress since she was the one who always seemed to be fussing with them. Only one other couple was in the dining room, so she attended to us immediately.
"Can I get you something to start?"
"Sure." "Thank you, that would be nice." We both responded simultaneously.
"And what would the lady like this evening?"
Sarah smiled at the flattery. "I think I'll have a glass of white wine." She glanced over at me to see my reaction. This was a subtle cue of the mood to follow. Diet Coke was usually the beverage of choice. She didn't normally drink alcohol. One glass numbed her nose and made her giggle far too easily. When she did drink, however, it meant she was comfortable with my company and open to anything to follow. I raised my eyebrows in a debonair way.
"And for the gentleman?"
"Do you have Foster's on tap?"
"Yes we do."
"I'll have a pint please."
Sarah smiled at the happy memories I invoked. At university, Foster's was my signature beer. It was at a time when Crocodile Dundee was a known name, and Australia was inexplicably cool. 15 cent buffalo wings and a pitcher of Foster's was the Tuesday night special at the London Arms pub. There the Classics Club would meet and, as a group, circle the wagons and drink ourselves into extroverts.
As soon as the waitress left, Sarah smiled at me. She reached out and held my hand across the table. With my gaze on hers, she slipped her foot from her shoe and slowly began sliding it up my pant leg.
"I got a pedicure this morning." She announced seductively.
I nodded and pretended I didn't notice her invitation. "What colour?" I asked.
"I'm not telling." She teased. "You'll just have to find out later." Her devious little smile was gorgeous.
"Mmmm. I can't wait."
When the waitress returned with our drinks, we immediately retreated to our personal spaces as if we had been discovered by the chaperone. Sarah opened the menu and began to salivate at the variety.
"Can we add an appetizer to the package dinner?" Her question seemed innocent enough.
"You're on the package?" Our friendly waitress disappeared, and we were no longer a lady or a gentleman. She ripped the menu out of Sarah's hand and took mine before I had even opened it. She then scurried to her podium and brought back a tattered, grease-stained, photocopied page that we had to share. We both burst out laughing.
The waitress was flustered that we were not as bothered as she was. "The drinks are NOT included!"
"What choices do we have?" I asked, expecting the usual chicken or fish. I had been on many packages before with my parents.
"Coffee or tea." The waitress snapped.
Sarah and I looked at each other in amused disbelief.
"I'll have coffee please." I didn't even flinch at the ridiculously limited package. I was eager to get my order in early.
"And I'll have the tea!" Sarah followed my lead. "Can I have some milk with that?"
"Yes." The waitress snarled.
"Fantastic!" I enthused.
"Yes, great! I'm glad we got the package, Honey." Sarah joked.
The waitress stormed off and returned sometime later with our lettuce-only salads drowned in Kraft's Italian dressing and our chewy chicken dinners, which she had thoughtfully allowed to cool. She tossed the plates on the table and left us to peacefully devour our deal. We didn't see her again until we requested the bill. For some reason, we found it amusing to leave a generous tip, which of course, defeated the purpose of the package, but we didn't care. It was fun.
The rest of the holiday was marred with similar off-season products and services. The wax museum was only half open, so we couldn't see the pop stars of the seventies. I didn't think it was a problem, but Sarah pouted playfully. She really wanted to see young Bowie. Meanwhile, the arcade was particularly stingy about spitting out coupons. So much so that Mike, the scraggly-haired repair guy, ended up escorting us from game to game and repairing the devices on demand. In no time, he was acting like an old drinking buddy. He joked and laughed, then, out of the blue, revealed that working at the Niagara Falls Fun Centre wasn't his career choice, that his dream was to be part of a travelling carnival. He desperately wanted to see more of the world, he explained and socialize with a greater variety of "wildlife." Mike winked at Sarah to punctuate his meaning, then began advising her on which games to play.
Sarah was partial to Skee ball and clearly had career potential in the sport, but Mike quickly pointed out that the token-to-coupon payout was not the best. In a furtive whisper, he revealed that The Storm Stopper was your best bet, provided the arcade had left it on its original factory settings. He assured us the ones here were "cool." The game had lights that ran around the outside in opposite directions and you had to hit the button at just the right spot to win. It looked impossible, but Mike was right; if you calculated tokens in versus coupons won, it was the best deal. It only took a little practice to win a minor jackpot every 5 or 6 times.
We would cheer each win as if Toronto had won the Stanley Cup. I would give a quick fist pump and a full lung "Yes!" while Sarah would jump up and down screaming, "WhoooHooo!" Of course, in the end, when we cashed in, "Mike's secret" only bumped us up from a key-chain flashlight to a "deluxe" nail beauty set. Mind you, it did come complete with clippers, scissors, a file AND a cuticle scraper. Not only that, it was all neatly packaged in a paisley-patterned pink and green plastic vinyl case. Mike was so pleased to give us our prize and to be honest, we were thrilled to win it if only to see his broad chicletted smile. It was more of a trophy than a grooming set.
That night, I made reservations for us at a fancy Chinese food restaurant - the Bamboo Garden. When we arrived, we had half-expected renovations of some sort. Instead, the place was immaculate. Gentle pools teeming with goldfish highlighted the epic black and red Ming dynasty decor. Real candles flickered on crisp white tablecloths. Again, the restaurant was virtually ours. The reservations on my part were entirely unnecessary. In fact, as soon as we entered, they knew us by name and guided us directly to our table. A live lounge piano caressed the air, its notes danced vaguely around familiar harmonies until finally, as if prompted by our presence, a song emerged immediately accompanied by the velvet voice of oriental karaoke. It was our song remastered

2023.06.03 03:34 Dead_HumanCollection What cleric spells should I take a a divine soul sorcerer?
Recently finished playing a wild magic sorcerer, but about half way through I kind of got over the surges. We are playing a new campaign 3-10 I think. Not exactly sure where we will end.
I want to play a divine soul sorcerer. I know I just played a sorcerer, but it was a lot of fun so I want to do it again. We have a newbie joining us and he's playing a cleric so I figure divine soul will let me do sorcerer things and heal if the new guy gets overwhelmed.
It also fills the party niche well. Former dm is a wizard (bladesong maybe), new player (like brand new) is a war cleric, two others are moon druid and fighter.
I've got my sorcerer spells from my last run down. The usual suspects. Shield, mage armor, absorb elements, dissonant whispers, phantasmal force, invisibility, fly, fireball, etc. Not a full list, don't have my character sheet in front of me.
What cleric spells should I take and what should I drop from the sorcerer list? Healing word obviously and probably spiritual weapon. What else?
Also, I'm not doing a hexblade dip or any multiclassing in general. So I am not going to be a frontliner for spirit guardians or anything.
