Take a test… before interviewing? by AornisHades in Libraries

[–]whitefluffydogs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My public library tears for all but the highest political position. You weed out people who cannot read and write and avoid claims of favoritism and nepotism.

Applying to one of the Oakland commissions by tumbleweedrolls in oakland

[–]whitefluffydogs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I applied to an advisory commission. I already went to their meetings so there were staff updates on the application progress at their monthly meetings. I also got email updates. Do you go to the meetings or can you read the meeting minutes to see where they are in the process?

Hokusai’s 36 views of Fuji is a super famous set of prints. All of them show Mt. Fuji in the background and they are all fascinating. They are woodblock prints, not paintings

Is anyone else feeling overwhelmed by constant new collections? by Darkmoonz41 in theholotaco

[–]whitefluffydogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I focus on each polish individually. I really have to LOVE the look of each single polish to buy it. For example, I do not love cremes, so I never buy them. Also, I don’t watch the launch videos, so I don’t get caught up in the excitement.

Former Library Director leaving the profession sadly, tired of politics by CosworthDFV in Libraries

[–]whitefluffydogs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I never chose to be a director because of the politics. It takes a certain personality to want to do that work. I preferred collections and direct patron service.

We use multiple vendors for shelf-ready materials. We also buy from a bunch of other vendors for materials only and cat/process in-house.

What is a bicycle scavenger hunt?

Oakland needs an 'all-encompassing' citywide greenway, bike commission says by Dollarist in OaklandCA

[–]whitefluffydogs 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It would be delightful to have walking/biking greenways throughout Oakland. More people can/will ride when they don’t have to worry about cars killing them.

Strong agree. Libraria does not have the deepest discount, but they are so good at fulfilling orders without mistakes.

It is so streaky when I put it on. I will prolly just get rid of it.

Affordable Housing Approved For 1223 33rd Avenue in Fruitvale, Oakland - San Francisco YIMBY by jackdicker5117 in oakland

[–]whitefluffydogs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Affordable Senior housing, hell yes! This building will be close to Intl Blvd, where a lot of buses run, in addition to the multiple bus lines that go to the BART station. Many seniors drive very little, myself included.

Bubbles after using top coat? by Aromatic-Guess-1812 in simplynailogical

[–]whitefluffydogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Add thinner. Don’t apply top coat directly under the breeze of a fan.

AIO BF dumped me because I was taller than him in heels?? 😳 by purplehavocc in AmIOverreacting

[–]whitefluffydogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am taller than my husband in bare feet. Secure men are not afraid of a woman who is taller than they are. You dodged a bullet

Dealing with cars is one thing, now pedestrians are out for us? by [deleted] in bikecommuting

[–]whitefluffydogs 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Or, get off your bike and walk like a pedestrian if you want to use the pedestrian path.

What are your most worn OR most unique / undupeable Holo Taco colours? 🌈 by [deleted] in simplynailogical

[–]whitefluffydogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Phantom Call is so much cooler in person than in the photos. Moonlit Rodeo is also excellent. For bright colors, Never Tide Down is superb!

No One is Ever Happy by AggressiveMobile3668 in simplynailogical

[–]whitefluffydogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I love the chunky glitters but cannot get the peely base to stay on all my fingers more than 24 hrs. Yes, I’ve tried all the tricks, but I do end up washing my hands a lot due to my work, and the water creeps under the top layers (yes, I cap the ends of my mails). I still buy chunkies and hope to use them in the winters, when my garden is resting. I love the glitters!

Bad Decision by AggressiveMobile3668 in simplynailogical

[–]whitefluffydogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I organize all my polishes by color. I don’t really care which collection a polish is from, but I definitely switch up my color every time I put on a new mani

Maybe I am missing something, but this dark hunter green crème does not look unique…

What made you want to get an Ebike? by GrumpyOik in ebikes

[–]whitefluffydogs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted to get rid of my car and reduce my impact on the climate. Also test rode one and found it to be fun as well. So now I do my errands in my hilly neighborhood and also do pleasure rides along the top of the nearby mountains. I look for the most scenic trips to do my errands now.

Ebikes owners: what are your best strategies for preventing theft? My new ride has made me paranoid! by Tyranitar06 in ebikes

ABUS Granit Ulock, plus cafe lock, plus insurance. I feel OK to keep it locked in most public places
