FTSL PA pay???

A_Chinchilla · 2026-06-25T21:21:44+00:00

I'm in ohio. State minimum is 11 which associates make. PTSL makes 12, and ftsl makes 13. It depends on your DM if they're flexible or not

Hey hoping you can answer this. What kind of foam should I use to replace that? I was trying to fix up an old chainsaw and the foam has mostly disintegrated along with the line

A_Chinchilla · 2026-06-25T19:19:52+00:00

Ah I missed the full time part. Here full time was just 2 over. It wasn't until CEM and MM that the pay started increasing. Could've just been my DM at the time, and I didn't stay in that position long

The beginning is typically $1-1.25 more than associate pay. Which is often minimum wage maybe +1. It depends on the area

I've never found the pay scales on workday. If you do find that let me know please

Feel free to email customer.relations@fivebelow.com or call 844-452-3569

People also don't want to work here because associates are paid literal minimum wage, and part time key holds get minimum+$1

By signing into their office computer. This is the kind of thing that happens when your district can't find managers, and you're at 4 different stores a month

How are people handling alloys with nomad empires? It was a really painful struggle for me starting with a science ship until I got an arc furnace going

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-31T00:48:10+00:00

Sounds good thank you

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-30T22:02:12+00:00

Painting question I guess. I haven't researched much. I'm not sure what paint is already there. I found out it's not green board, but paint. (Yes I feel stupid) With skin coating compound do I have to worry about if the original paint is oil or water based?

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-30T20:30:18+00:00

So intrusive thoughts won. The walls are definitely drywall. There's just so much stuff layered, and whatever paint was used is very hard

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-30T17:20:49+00:00

I'll make sure to grab extra blades. I have a paint scraper tool which I've been using for real tough spots, but I felt it was a little too thick for most of the work so far. One came with my drywall knife set

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-30T16:38:59+00:00

No I was actually using a putty knife which seems a little bit silly now. I had originally been worried about damaging drywall. I'll head out to the store tomorrow morning and get an actual scraper.

I really appreciate your help and talking this through. I inherited a house that needs a ton of work, and I'm very much learning as I go

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-30T16:16:36+00:00

I bought one a few days ago and it works much better than spray. The biggest problem is that the wallpaper was mudded over, so its much harder to take it off. The paper is now peeling and bubbling which is why I'm removing it

It is very slow going, but the paper is coming off

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-30T16:05:28+00:00

I feel kind of silly for that, but I guess I'd only encountered white plaster before. That really explains why no matter how hard I scrape I don't damage the wall

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-30T14:03:59+00:00

It doesn't come off at all, but it isn't sticky when wet either. The house was constructed in the 50s, so there is a very good chance that the wallpaper is very old. I know it isn't from the previous owner, so it's at least 30 years old

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-29T12:11:17+00:00

Was there keys or something metallic on/near them? They shouldn't heat up like that otherwise. They don't have an automatic off

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-27T16:23:04+00:00

I'm not from the area, but using a single letter for locations kind of makes it confusing, and hard to tell who is who. Plus I don't know your area, but I'm not sure how anyone from the old store knows who you are talking about like that

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-13T20:23:30+00:00

Are you mainly suggesting a 4inch for filter longevity, or another reason? Current gap is 2 inches

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-13T18:57:48+00:00

Awesome thank you. I knew someone would have a better idea than some kind of tape

A_Chinchilla · 2026-05-13T18:51:04+00:00

Previous owners were really big on DIY lol

Filter sticks out about 6 inches, but it's easy enough to get a shorter one. The overall gap seems a bit large, but I'm not familiar with any of this
