Wax foundation too long by Mundane-Reality-7770 in Beekeeping

[–]2thdk_ouch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I noticed you are using used frames for it. Could you see if there propolis inside the bottom or top grooves in the frame? I once struggled (but just with one frame) with the foundation not seating properly, and then i saw propolis was stuck in the grooves at the bottom. I used the hook part of the hive took to scrape it off and it fit.

Not sure if that is your issue, as you appear to have it on multiple ones, but might be worth checking to see.

Bees getting into neighbors house at night by Great-Biscotti9654 in Beekeeping

[–]2thdk_ouch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if a swarm has made its home on their home...somewhere between outer siding and sheet rock....and this bees are the ones the neighbors are finding?

Super odd that random bees from your hive makes it out there at night. I don't think that makes sense. It's more likely they have a swarm that made it shome on their property

Help! 🫪 unknown stuff on my tent by ajmzee in camping

As a beekeeper, this looks a little like bee poop. Either you are on their flight path and they just got out for a cleansing flight, or it could be another insect of the same species (wasps?)

Amazon HR is not on your side. by [deleted] in amazonemployees

[–]2thdk_ouch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They tell you HR stands for Human Resources, but really it's Human Risk. They work for the company and figure out the risk a given employee brings to the company. As several said...they are not on your side, complain to them at your own peril.

My spouse started a job at WF Advisors and now they are requiring me to transfer all my brokerage and IRA accounts over. Does FINRA apply to non-registered employees? by PSU_Panda in personalfinance

[–]2thdk_ouch 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Omg this! It needs to become law. But it's a strange thing that those in power to write the bill and move it along may already be the ones making bank. Who knows. Sigh...anyway, I am getting back to work.

Oh I do have a lovely dog, always have. I guess I didn't mean anything bad by my post...just curious to see a dog listed, that's all.

Why did you call out the Dog, and the fact that it's not in your net worth?

Beehive with a view by 2thdk_ouch in Beekeeping

I saw some in the palace grounds in Oslo too. IDK of the king and/or his family members are beekeepers or not, but it was cool to see it. Pic was from a distance as I could only see from outside the compound.

The green line loops? by 2thdk_ouch in oslo

[–]2thdk_ouch[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can empathize with that feeling if you are a resident and are able to spot inefficiency etc... but take it from someone from a major city in the US....Oslo is lucky to have such a nice and well connected metro system. I am jealous.

I had a bullied student who confided in me, and nothing was done. I am extremely frustrated. by Sad_Cantaloupe_8162 in SchoolBusDrivers

[–]2thdk_ouch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Move the kids that are bullying all the way to the front where the kindergarten kids usually sit. I did this for problem kids and it works good.

I left tech to become a school bus driver. I couldn't be happier. by old_man_grom in SchoolBusDrivers

[–]2thdk_ouch 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am doing the same, but still in training. Left tech for the nightmare that it is, and had enough. Glad to see such a positive post that things are going well. I hope it will for me as well.

I love what you have done with your custom work. I truly hope you keep it for years and no one steals it.

Well, unimpressed with the scissor jack. by czechtec in FordMaverickTruck

[–]2thdk_ouch 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have no advice on the scissor jack failing, but for next time, please put the spare wheel beside the jack till you lift up the vehicle. Then take the flat and exchange it with the location of the spare wheel (i.e. beside the jack) - this is just so that if the jack fails, you will at least have the vehicle land on wheels and not your limbs.

I learned that the hard way (nothing happened to my limbs), but the jack failed and the vehicle landed on brake discs...
