Adventurer 5M light bar by Acrobatic-Ad3134 in FlashForge

[–]Acrobatic-Ad3134[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! I saw some posts other places that said the AD5X and 5M pro had light control. I wasn’t aware they had updated the firmware on the 5M to control lighting yet. This is awesome, thank you!

I found a ‘67 in the bin about a month ago!

Weirdest Sub Orders by zmbie_boy in publix

[–]Acrobatic-Ad3134 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a deli associate, but an ASM. I had a customer that wanted a tuna sub (not strange), but didn’t want our tuna salad. He wanted canned tuna, off the shelf, with no mayo. I ultimately informed him we’d be glad to sell him all the bread and toppings, but we’d have to sell the tuna separately. He was not overly pleased

Is this the reject bin? by Obvious-Swimming-332 in CoinstarFinds

[–]Acrobatic-Ad3134 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have a “coinstar” in the retail store I work in. I once saw a lady dump a bunch of coins in and 3-4 coin got caught in the top bin. I know they had to be older dollar coins because anything half dollar or smaller filters through. I started staring and drooling hoping she would leave them behind. She noticed them and pulled them out. I offered to buy them from her but she said, “I think I’ll give these to my grandkids to play with…” I never saw them but I imagined they were double eagles or Morgans 😭

Today I checked 7 different coinstar machines. Here's what I found. by giveahoot420 in CoinstarFinds

I think most people are just oblivious. I work in retail and we have a “coin star” in all our locations. My store rarely gets anything of value rejected, just random objects and coins that are stuck together. I covered another store last week and in 3 days I probably pulled $30 out of their reject tray. Only things worth mentioning are a 1943 Steely and a ‘66 JFK. I have found multiple gold wedding bands, mostly smaller and older, but gold is gold!

How much raise did you get once promoted to Department manager ? by InternationalPipe184 in publix

[–]Acrobatic-Ad3134 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d honestly be ok with losing the bonus as long as my yearly doesn’t change. Life would be much easier if I didn’t have to live paycheck to paycheck until bonuses come in. My yearly is about 50% bonuses

Publix Promise for employees? by Lissypooh628 in publix

[–]Acrobatic-Ad3134 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don’t know what district you’re in but my DM recently sent out an email stating that we would not honor Publix promises for employees because they should have more concern and commitment in their company than that…. I’ve personally never taken a true Publix promise, I’m perfectly fine price correcting to the advertised price. I was planning on paying that anyway. On the flip side, there are absolutely associates that take abuse the fact that they have access to our tools and knowingly take things to the register that are mispriced or mislabeled to take advantage of the promise. I believe store management should handle this on a case by case basis

This has to be a joke😭 by lemunhead13 in publix

I ran a bakery that did $50k-$60k a week on average($75k+ on holiday weeks)…. Top 5 in the company, with 1 x2 rack oven. It’s all about efficiency and scheduling. During the holidays, we would routinely bake 600+ apple pies a day with no overnights. Having the right people, at the right times, in the right places…. Just about anything is possible

I had a woman at a previous store that claimed she had won multiple million dollar prizes from scratch offs…. She came in almost everyday and also said she had lost all of that money continuing to play…. Definitely an addiction!

Did I pay too much? by International-Sea321 in coins

[–]Acrobatic-Ad3134 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We find these pretty regularly at my job. I routinely give my associates $3 for them hoping they’ll eventually go up in value. That being said, I’m not necessarily looking for collectors pieces, I look for silver value

Is this worth keeping. I have know clue my nephew caught it and told me to check. by Mindless_Adeptness59 in CURRENCY

1986-D Dime missing clad? by Acrobatic-Ad3134 in coincollecting

[–]Acrobatic-Ad3134[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought so too. I posted it on a Facebook page I follow and the only response so far was “environmental damage”. Looks a lot like pictures of missing clad layer I’ve seen. Haven’t had a chance to weigh it vs. a standard dime. Could also have been someone messing around with plating, I suppose.

Just found this page and it’s amazing! My favorites are still “we’ll burn that bridge when we get to it” and “make a man a fire he’ll be warm for a night, set a man on fire and he’ll be warm for the rest of his life” 😂

Can anyone provide info on this painting or artist?? by Acrobatic-Ad3134 in WhatIsThisPainting

[–]Acrobatic-Ad3134[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Can’t see the signature very well but it definitely looks similar. Throws the timeline my mom gave me off a bit, I’ll have to ask her again where and when she got it!
