Typical of baby snakes . Don ' t put him back right after , just keep handling him for a couple more minutes , then wash your hands after . You can keep a paper towel handy to wipe down without putting him away . <| sep |> The price of salt is going . DOWN ! DOWn ! DOwn ! Down ! down ! <| sep |> Nah I woke up one shift before that lol . Good timing ? <| sep |> Not only that , you can see what appears to be a couch beside her . She ' s in a living roomdiningkitchen combo . This is like a college apartment . <| sep |> This was a tactless and crappy thing for them to do to you , I ' m so sorry . I would be distressed by this and it sounds particularly rubbish that she didn ' t back off when you said you didn ' t have their address . They most certainly don ' t need to contact anyone you haven ' t chosen to list as next of kin . I have my husband listed as my only next of kin . It ' s a completely reasonable thing to do . What HR did here was not reasonable . Some people don ' t have anyone else to add or don ' t want to . The feelings you are having of embarrassment are a programmed response where your feelings go inwards instead of out . Try to remind yourself that you did nothing wrong righteous anger sounds very reasonable to me .
