I've got the nasal pillows. Right now it's just the general discomfort of wearing the headgear. Also sometimes the headgear ends up irritating my skin so much it gets sore and I have to take it off because we're in the cold season and my skin dries out quickly. I probably need to look into some kind of moisturizer.

Sounds like a plan. You might also try a humidifier in the room. Is it too tight? You don't want it too loose, but I've often found they tighten up the headgear a little too much.

Let's keep this train rolling! Just got let go from my job in the middle of a workday!  :-\

This did not come as a surprise at all to me. It was clear early on I got hired for work that either did not exist or was not getting funneled to me in an efficient manner. After a little over a month working there I got shifted from tech support into sales, which was a bit busier but not by much. Did my best to do the work I got but I seemed to have less and less to do each week.

The silver lining is I have time off for the holidays now! Happy holidays, everyone!  ;D

Well at least you're looking at the bright side! Sorry to hear that though and hopefully 2021 will bring along better prospects!

That is a pain. How long a hiatus does the job market take at Christmas? Here is does not return to normal levels until Feb.

Gluten heard I was talking crap and decided to inflict me today. I have celiac disease so I've been in constant pain, thrown up three times and other things I won't mention here. It was a pizza I got that was supposed to have cauliflower crust but it has wheat instead. I noticed it tasted different but kept eating. Big mistake.

Yikes, how did they mess up the pizza, was it store bought or restaurant bought?

Restaurant bought. I told them cauliflower crust and it said it was on the receipt. That was not the case.

Ugh.  Sorry you had to deal with that.

Sorry to hear that, Sam.

I just saw the preview for the show "Cooked" on Netflix and one of the chef's said, "When someone says you shouldn't eat gluten, I say. Prove it!" What a dufus. Just because he may not react to gluten, doesn't mean a thing.
