Question: Some time ago, I was given a promotion and a raise at my job. I haven't been at the job for a long time so this is significant.

Answer: A few months ago, I was given a promotion and a raise at my job. This is a very important milestone for me because I am still relatively young and haven't been at my current employer for very long. However, my bosses felt that it was time to give me more responsibility and more money for the work that I have done for them so far. More importantly, because I am still young, it shows that I am gaining a growing reputation in my field. I work in a relatively large area in terms of population, but my field isn't very big. Most people who work in the field know one another and word spreads quickly. In the time I've with my current employer, I've already met many of my counterparts at other organizations. I've also met many of the owners and supervisors of other organizations in the field. Getting a promotion and more recognition so quickly will allow me to have more options if I decide to leave my job. Additionally, it made me feel good that I was able to impress my bosses. Many young employees don't get the opportunity that I've gotten so far so it was important that I made a good impression. I've found that people appreciate my work ethic and my hard work, which are two things that are important to me. I've come along way since college and it wasn't the easiest road, so to be working in and excelling in my field is an important sign of who I am as a professional. I intend to take this on and continue making my bosses pleased with the decision to hire me in the coming months. I also intend to see if it has impressed people outside of my organization for other potential opportunities.


Question: I took my dad to a game 7 watch party for the Stanley cup. Our team won and i got to celebrate with him and the rest of the stadium and see all the emotions that everyone including myself felt.

Answer: Watching Game 7 of the Stanley Cup series with my dad and seeing our team win is something I'll remember forever! EVen four months later the event stilll stands out! Although tickets to the Stanley Cup game for me and Dad's favorite team were super expensive, we still celebrated the big win as if we were in the stands!! We saw the team score the winning points at a watch party. But, no matter where we were it was great to witness our team score such a big win with my Dad. I can almost still hear his cheers of excitement. It was also pretty crazy to see how everyone lept off their feet when the clock ran down to zero and our win was cinched! Everyone was ecstatic!! I saw a couple of guys in jerseys crying with excitement and pride and hugging each other- I didn't realize how much this meant to some people! My dad gave me a great big high-five and then started doing the same. to his friends. Then, I mimicked and held my hand up for "some skin" to anyone in arm's length. I got slaps. and hugs from everyone around during those first ten minutes when everyone's adrenaline was through the roof! Even the sports casters on the television seemed blown away at the victory. It was so much fun to celebrate this monumental sports. win for our city with my Dad and all the other fans in support!


Question: My long backed dog was suddenly paralyzed one morning. My horrible vet said to just kill him. But, he's almost completely fine now.

Answer:
I have a dackel/wiener-dog. I woke up to him paralyzed a month ago (June). I took him to the vet, as one does, and she was just "Put him down. That's not a good life. He'll never get better." since I could not afford the 10k for surgery. Went home, cried about it, thought about it, looked up paralyzed dog forums all night long. It was a pretty bad night. I just felt so goddamn hopeless about everything. The paralysis was very sudden. The night before, he was limping just a little bit when I brought him in after the walk. I thought that he'd stepped on something. The day of, other than not being able to move his back legs, he was happy and fine. Got him on steroids, did crate-rest, did laser treatments. Told "This won't make a difference. He'll get urine scald, he's suffering." My vet really knows how to depress the hell out of me, I might say. Purchased bed wetting pads, barrier spray, he was happy to be home and I was just worried about the future. And, he got better. He's almost completely fine now, no thanks to my shitty vet.
