Dallas tx hail damage
Severe IS
2023.06.09 08:29 LankyIdeal3176 Severe IS
I am currently 30 years old and I have come to the realization that I severe imposter syndrome and that is the reason I have been so stuck in my life.
Background: I grew up in a Salvadoran household in NYC/Dallas, TX. My household was extremely violent because of my father. There are many stories of the extreme violence I encountered in my own house but that would take up too much writing. I already started to feel insecure in how people viewed me and my family because of this so I already started to develop a feeling of being “less than”, at a very young age.
My father was over protective and violent with my siblings and I, so that sometimes translated in social interactions. I can’t tell you the amount of embarrassing moments I had in my life because I was literally ignorant and it was something I should have been taught. I always lacked discipline and consistency throughout my whole life. Those moments really fucked up my self esteem even more.
I have always felt insecure about my literacy level both in English and Spanish, which, I feel, is common among children of immigrant parents. I never felt that I was smart enough to use more advanced vocabulary in my everyday conversations and, if I did, I would feel like fraud or poser for using it. I carried that with me my whole life.
At the age of 13, I started to realize that I was different. I grew up in a Christian church and the LGBTQIA+ was always being talked about. Growing in a Latino household, there was a bunch of homophobic comments, jokes, etc. And i attended a Christian university. 😭 So all of those experiences made it very difficult to accept that I was gay which added to my insecurities.
All these experiences really started to affect me on another level while I was in college, which I think is when most people start experiencing imposter syndrome. I was studying music, vocal performance. Which is a horrible degree for someone who gets anxiety from people judging you. Throughout my whole college career, I didn’t feel good enough about anything I did. Literally. I didn’t feel talented enough. Smart enough. Good enough. I knew I was gay but felt like I needed to control my every move and hide it as much as I could and wanted it to go away.
After graduating the only thing I got better at had to do with sexuality. I came out to people and all but the other stuff stayed with me. It was so hard for me to find a stable job because my interviews were so terrible because I had severe anxiety for my interview. Sweating like crazy and all. Over thought my answers. I didn’t feel at the same level of the persons interviewing me. I never felt good enough for a white collar job sometimes I still don’t because of my past. I didn’t pursue anything in music because I always felt like I wasn’t good enough and felt like a fraud for calling myself a musician.
Eventually, I got a job with my brother doing concrete polishing. Which made me comfortable because I didn’t have to work through those traumas that really play into my imposter syndrome. Fast forward to 2021. I got a job that was unionized so I was excited because of all the perks but even there my IS showed up. I didn’t want to lose my job so my anxiety was through the roof. Overthought everything. Always felt like I was going to lose my job. Felt like I needed to be perfect in everything.
I started doing side work with my brother again and it was time for me to start teaching the new workers the skill because I have done it for 7 years. That made them view me as someone who can advise them on the job and I felt so weird to be seen in that position and wrong lol.
These past few months I have been having a breakthrough. I feel today I can walk in a room and be the most confident I could ever be even if I don’t get the result I want because honestly it will be alright.
Sorry for the long post and if it doesn’t make sense. This is the first time I have expressed these feelings in its entirety.

2023.06.09 08:10 WockItOut Tips I'd like to share from my 3 week trip to Seoul and Busan.
Hey all,
I just got back from my 3 week trip to Korea, spending 2.5 weeks in Seoul (due to getting surgery) and 4 nights in Busan. I thought I'd share some of my experiences and thoughts here since some of the recent information I got from this subreddit was not true when I went to Korea.
Tips: - Get your T-money card as soon as you can (I got mine at the airport), I saw many tourists who never bought one and were still using single tickets to get through the subways, which is really inefficient and more complicated.
- if your phone allows eSim, prepurchase one online then you can simply scan a QR code when you land and have immediate access to data, you can also skip the lines at the airport where they sell sim cards. I got mine from KT online for 56,900 won which lasted for 20 days.
- lots of ATMs only allowed up to 100,000 won to be taken out, with an expensive 4800 won fee. ATMs near or in banks seemed to be the best option where you can take a lot of cash out and the fees were about 3000 won.
- when using your visa or mastercard, many times it will ask you if you want to be charged in KRW (korean won) or your home currency (in my case Canadian Dollars CAD), you should always choose KRW even though it seems counter intuitive. If you have a no foreign tx fee card like myself, your best conversion rate will come from the visa or mastercard conversion rate, and not the one on the machine.
- ALWAYS carry a pack of "wet tissues" on you. You can buy them for 1000-2000 won for a pack of 20-30 in any of the popular convenience stores (CU, Gs25, 7-11). about 1/3 of the washrooms I went to there was NO toilet paper.
- Carry your passport on you in a safe and secure place at all times, especially if you're going out for drinks or trying to get into bars, as well as for instant tax refunds when you spend more than 30,000 won and applicable stores.
- When shopping at street vendors for clothes, bags, etc. Never buy the first one you see especially if you look like a foreigner. For example, you walk to the first stall and see a handbag you like, but you don't see a price, that price when you ask may or may not change depending on how the owner feels at that moment. I often saw bags being told to customers at say 40,000 won, but a few stalls down had a price tag for the same bag at 15,000 won.
- when looking for places to eat, IF you don't plan on looking up restaurant reviews on your phone, it's always safer to choose places that are either LIST PRICES or are BUSY, or BOTH. I went into several restaurants that had no prices listed outside and were dead and they were often bad experiences. If you know what you're going to pay, and you know other koreans find it good, then its a much safer bet.
- use KakaoTaxi app to call cabs whenever possible! Not only does it show you the optimal route, but it also gives you a very accurate guess of the cost, but most importantly, it lets the driver know exactly where you want to go. As someone who speaks decent korean, 90% of the time I hailed a cab and tried to tell them where to go, they could not understand even when I showed them my phone (almost all cab drivers are older men who have a very hard time seeing things on the phone). If you can't help but hail a cab without the app, and they can't understand where you want to go, find the nearest major subway station near your destination and tell them to go there instead.
- if you are enjoying nightlife at places like itaewon/hongdae, it will be IMPOSSIBLE to get a cab through KakaoTaxi app. However, there will be a lot of free cabs everywhere, unfortunately all the cab drivers are there to essentially scam people. They will ask you where you want to go and usually will tell you it will cost 40,000 won. This is a ridiculous price, you could ride in a taxi for 90 minutes for 40,000 won, but they will ask you for that even if its a 5 minute drive. I'm not 100% sure whats best to do in this scenario so if any koreans can help out please leave a comment. Personally, I was able to find a driver who would take me anywhere for 15-20,000 won each time.
- always bring AT LEAST 2 credit cards (1 visa, 1 MC for example), most places my first CC would work fine, but many times it would not work and I had to use a different CC. Also ALWAYS have adequate cash on you in case all your cards fail.
- there are almost NO public garbage cans in korea (private property like malls is no problem), so most people leave their trash anywhere or in piles on the side of the street. I would bring a small trash bag to carry around if you dont like littering.
- if you quickly need smaller bills and don't want to go around stores asking for change, there are arcades almost everywhere especially at major tourist zones, and they all have "change dispensers" that can turn 50,000 won notes into 10,000s, and 10,000s into 1000s, and even 1000s into 500 coins if you need
- when calling a taxi on KakaoTaxi its best to wait at a place thats easy to pick you up. For example on the correct side of the main road, otherwise the taxi may have to do several loops to get to you and in some cases to avoid doing this the driver may try to message or call you, and if you dont know Korean then you cannot respond and no one likes a grumpy taxi driver. Also, its simply cheaper and faster for you
- at many tourist places (ESPECIALLY at the fish market), vendors will try to convince you to come buy at their stall or come into their restaurant etc. Personally, I have dealt with a lot of this overseas and will simply ignore them and continue walking and would recommend you do as well. There are plenty of vendors who are not pushy with cheapebetter products.
- if using the KTX high speed train to get from city to city, remember to prebook your tickets on the korail website up to 30 days before the trip, also remember they are not return tickets so you must book both trips separately.
Random thoughts:
- you will probably spend more cash than you think. This is one thing I wasn't prepared for as everyone was saying you basically don't need cash. If you're like me and enjoy streetfood and arcades, etc, then it would be good to get a good chunk of cash out, especially since your CCs could fail and you may need to pay in cash. Traveling with myself and my girlfriend we still ended up spending about $600+ CAD during the trip
- as early as 2 months ago I saw comments saying myeongdong was "still dead", and I don't know how it was pre pandemic, but when I was there it was extremely busy. To the point you had to constantly stop and wait for people to keep walking through.
I will continue to edit and post more things as I think of them, if you have any questions then feel free to comment and I'll reply!

2023.06.09 05:04 Doxepine Forgot to replace roof after hail damage claim. Insurance already paid out.
I live in a state where hail damage occurs pretty often. We had a pretty good storm in Spring of 2022 and we had our insurance come out to evaluate for damages with a roofing company. Those roofing companies literally follow the storms and knock on all doors in the neighborhood after a storm. Anyways, insurance paid out 14k and said once repairs are done, send in proof and we will release another 1k. Being in a high hail storm state, I figured I'd wait till after Fall of 2022 and complete the job in early spring of 2023 in case any other storms come through . Well, I forgot. The 14k was already paid out to us and claim was closed after 1 year from filing. No extensive damage to the roof where I'm worried about leaks or anything but what happens if another storm rolls in and damage occurs? Can I submit another claim? Return the 14k? Change insurances? I just don't want to be denied future claims ha.
Any insight would be appreciated!
Tldr: Insurance paid out for hail storm damage but I forgot to complete repairs. What does this mean for future claims.

2023.06.09 04:26 themonarchseyebrows What should I do with a creepy photo I found on my walk?
I was on a walk in my neighborhood and found an unsettling photo right in the street. This is a relatively well traveled road.
The photo is of a sleeping women and she does not seem to know she’s being photographed. Her face isn’t visible and her clothes appear dirty.
This photo isn’t evidence of a crime but it is quite creepy. Perhaps the women is being human trafficked or kept against her will? Who could know.
I’m located in Dallas, TX. The women in the photo and the style of bedding, plus my proximity to Mexico makes me think it could be a trafficking situation as well.
My question is, what should I do with this? Turn it into the police? Provide it as a tip to a human trafficking agency? Maybe just having it on record with the location I found it would be helpful?
Thanks.

2023.06.09 03:35 hepba replace turtle vents with ridge vent?
Getting a new roof due to hail damage...we have the option of replacing turtle vents with ridge vents. House is 16 years old, with 2 separate attic spaces; one ridge runs east/west and the other runs north/south. House has soffit vents.
The roof is steep enough for ridge vents, but we do tend to get storms with gusty winds (Colorado front range). Contractor would use Lomanco OR-4 ridge vents.
Would I need to be concerned about rain/snow coming in the vent? Thanks.
