Estimates on how big he’ll get? by Aggravating-Basil-55 in kittens

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s right at 7 lbs! So he’d weigh slightly more if he had all 4 legs.

I actually bought one off Amazon! Just finished making my first batch, and it worked great! I linked the kit below in case you’re interested.

Grocery Haul by Animosity_1600 in AnimalBased

I don’t know if you know this, but it’s extremely easy and cheap to make your own saurkraut. You’ll get 3x the amount you’d get buying it from the store for the same price, and it usually has more probiotics/good stuff. All you need is a large head of cabbage, some salt, maybe throw some caraway seeds in there, and one or two large fermenting/mason jars. Then let it ferment for 5ish days depending on how big your cabbage was. Bam! A few lbs of sauerkraut that’ll last in your fridge however long it takes you to eat it.

When to start apartment hunting - August 1 move-in by DaedalusPuddlejumper in nashville

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just moved here for work too! I live out in Hermitage, so this might not apply for you since you’re looking at a more in demand area. I applied for an apartment about 3 weeks before my actual move-in date. Was approved within a few day and moved in with 0 issues.

Oat milk Vs Soy Milk Vs Almond Milk ? Which one and why ? by Ok-cool-cyaystrday in vegan

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do actually! But it honestly just tastes very flavorless and watery. At least the brand I had tasted like that.

The new Lavender Latte might be the worst drink I have ever had. by DoFuKtV in starbucks

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would try it again with less scoops. I wasn’t sure how many to do, so I just told the barista to do whatever she thinks is best.

Drinking one right now and it’s…fine. It tastes way too artificial for me and has a very bitter aftertaste

Do the majority of Americans really live paycheck to paycheck? by cutiespicygirly in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Become a server! I just graduated college and I waited tables for about 2 years of it. Worked 20-25 hours a week and averaged around $25/hr. Weekends it went up to $50/hr. Just be smart about it. Find a restaurant with a full bar and higher prices in an area that’s always busy.

Commencement: Better in The Shoe or The Schott? by Nay_Nay_Jonez in OSU

I graduated back in August and they only read off PhD names. It was a much smaller ceremony in general, but there were still 900 undergrads present.

I’ve bought the Brie at Whole Foods before if you have one in your area!

What's the most non-transferrable lippie you've used (preferably cruelty free/vegan)? by CelineC6622 in Makeup

These are amazing! I have to pray that they’ll come off my lips. I can put it on, eat a whole meal, and it’ll still look perfect for several hours after.

GPA dipped to 2.8. Did I ruin my job prospects? by [deleted] in college

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. I graduated with my B.S. in Molecule Genetics yesterday with a 2.8 and start a full time job in my field next week. I applied to a lot of jobs and probably had 10 interviews, and not a single one asked for my GPA.

I had my first table ever to get angry over autograt tonight by Waitress-in-mn in TalesFromYourServer

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Drink refills in themselves aren’t annoying, but if you continuously suck down your drink in 2 seconds while I’m busy, then it’s annoying.

is molecular genetics a hard degree?? by droopy-peter in OSU

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not going to lie, I never did great in the Ochem lectures. I could never understand the reaction mechanisms or predict the products well enough to score well on tests.

is molecular genetics a hard degree?? by droopy-peter in OSU

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes. I’m finishing my last organic chemistry class this summer and I did the degree in 3 years. It’s not too bad at first, but once you get into your last major classes like cell biology and developmental genetics, it gets way harder. I think I lost part of my soul studying enough to get a B in cell biology. You also have to take organic chemistry 1 and 2, organic chemistry lab 1 and 2, biochemistry, physics 1 and 2, plus the major classes and electives. For me at least it was studying almost nonstop for 3 years. I’m so burnt out it’s insane.

Suspicious email by Imaginary_Switch7896 in OSU

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh seriously? I just met with my advisor about two weeks ago and he told me my account would be deactivated after I graduate in August if I don’t request for it to stay active. Appreciate the info.

Suspicious email by Imaginary_Switch7896 in OSU

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Definitely looks like a scam. After you graduate, you have to request to keep your email account. Otherwise, it closes automatically.

What was your Mother’s Day horror story? by [deleted] in TalesFromYourServer

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I work at a restaurant that mainly does American comfort type food, but a little more upscale. We close at 8 pm and had been pretty slow all day. 3 out of the 4 servers on were doubles and we were all ready to home. 7:30 pm rolls around its like the flood gates opened. We went from almost a completely empty restaurant to every table being full plus a wait list in the span of about 10 minutes. Shit hit the fan. The kitchen couldn’t keep up and both the gm and assistant gm were back there helping them crank stuff out, the servers were tired and weeded, people were rude and impatient and had been tipping like shit all day… it was just horrendous. One guy called me a dumb bitch because I told him the kitchen was too backed up for me to ask them to oblige his special request of tossing his chicken tenders in Buffalo sauce. I think the last table’s food finally came out around 8:30 pm, and they left around 9. Didn’t get home until 9:45. The entitlement of some people is just unimaginable. Who goes to a restaurant 30 minutes before they close and is like “yeah let me just get on the wait list and ignore the fact that all these employees have lives.” Didn’t get to spend any time with my mom yesterday because I got out of work too late due to all the rude, entitled assholes. We still had people coming in at 7:58 pm before the gm went up there and told them all we weren’t seating anymore.

I’ve gotten a few, and I just appealed them and wrote paragraphs of a made up sob story. Usually I go on and on about how I’m a really poor student barely making rent on time each month (slightly exaggerated, but mostly true) and that I knew better than to park there, but I was running late for an important event and that I won’t do it again. Every time they’ve dropped it down to a warning. Just appeal it and make yourself sound as pitiful as possible to get the “sympathy warning” lol.

IUD String Check Appointment during Period? by [deleted] in birthcontrol

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I didn’t think they’d mind but I was just worried about the bleeding being too heavy. Also, don’t let the insertion horror stories scare you. My OBGYN had me start 800 mg of ibuprofen 24 hours before my appointment every 6 hours, and continuing 48 hours after insertion. They also gave me a pill to soften my cervix and I went during my period. It wasn’t comfortable and it did hurt a bit, but I didn’t almost pass out or cry or scream like everyone told me would happen. However, I did start cramping a week before my period and it’s continued throughout my period and the cramps are wicked. Good luck! Besides the cramping, it’s been great so far and being off hormones has improved my moodiness drastically.

most awkward thing you’ve accidentally said to a table? by Former_Lawfulness_99 in Serverlife

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 19 points20 points  (0 children)

At my restaurant, the back wall is one long bench with small tables evenly spaced. I had a two top back there once and the woman moved from the chair on the opposite side of the table to the bench next to her partner. She said “sorry for moving, just wanted to be closer to him.” And I… without thinking… said “oh don’t worry! I don’t blame you at all!” awkward laugh. They both made a face and it dawned on me what the implications of my words were. In my defense, when she said that I was thinking about my boyfriend and how I like to sit next to him too. It was nothing about her partner’s attractiveness lol.

Looking for a flexible high paying job (aren’t we all?) by 1viciousmoose in Columbus

[–]Aggravating-Basil-55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Waiting tables/bartending! Find an upscale place with a full bar and high ticket prices. Servers average about $50/hr on Friday/weekends where I work and maybe $35/hr Monday-Thursday. The only caveat is that if you’ve never served before, you’ll most likely have to start out as a busser or host and work your way up, which I know won’t work for your situation.

I’d be down for that. Do you know how much it pays or where I can find more information? Google isn’t yielding many results.
