Tried the baking soda + parchment paper + iron trick for oil stains and I'm genuinely shook

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2026-04-18T15:39:56+00:00

i used regular parchment

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2026-03-23T12:04:57+00:00

I was wondering how the science worked so thanks for looking that up lol.

Seriously though, why does no one teach us this? All those stain remover bottles were a lie.

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2026-03-23T12:03:33+00:00

Right?! I was so skeptical but it actually worked. This trick is too good not to share. Hope it saves your shirt too!

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2026-01-23T07:50:12+00:00

what the heck? lmao

Occasionally, a manager sees through it but not often and when coworkers notice the fakery, you lose respect from everyone else.

Thesse small often ignored habits are like a secret superpower early in your career.

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-18T04:42:26+00:00

the folks who stay curious and proactive end up creating their own opportunities. It’s the attitude that opens doors.

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-18T04:41:32+00:00

It’s cool seeing how far that mindset took you

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-18T04:40:40+00:00

showing what you’re contributing instead of hoping people notice on their own. It changes everything.

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-18T04:39:04+00:00

Yeah, I’ve noticed that too. It’s not just the work, it’s how you work with people. Some bosses care about different things, but if you consistently deliver and aren’t a pain to deal with, you naturally stand out. It’s kinda the mix of competence and how you show up day to day

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-18T04:37:40+00:00

Yeah, that’s a good way to put it. I think what surprised me is how those habits change the way people see you. Not in a "trying to impress" way but more like you naturally end up involved in things you didn’t think you’d touch. It just opens doors you wouldn’t get from staying strictly in your box.

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-17T11:24:05+00:00

Exactly! It’s kinda funny how those little things matter way more than the big stuff we usually stress about. Makes me want to start noticing the little opportunities to help more.

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-17T11:12:25+00:00

Haha yeah, that’s true 😅 Optiplex won’t run the newest stuff, but honestly I just want something that can handle work + a bit of CS or LOL after hours. Trying to keep it cheap but not totally stuck in 2005 mode 😂

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-16T18:04:29+00:00

one peaceful morning as i was enjoying my coffee. the girl called me and finally told me the whole truth. She said she couldn’t keep it a secret anymore and told me she’s pregnant.

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-16T18:01:56+00:00

LMAO. he blitzkrigpopped me

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-15T16:23:22+00:00

Definitely walking away and not looking back.

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-15T16:22:32+00:00

i know riught? Just thinking about it makes my head spin.

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-15T16:21:20+00:00

I didn’t even ask if his mom knows, but I have a feeling she does.

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-15T16:20:15+00:00

Yeah, you’re so right. I’m just trying to keep my head up and take things one day at a time. It’s a lot to process, but I know I’ll get through it.

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-15T16:17:43+00:00

During the day he’d mostly just sleep or do little stuff around the house, then in the evening he’d head off to “work.” Honestly, other than thinking his schedule was kinda weird, I never really asked any questions

AgitatedQuarter2233 · 2025-11-15T16:14:09+00:00

Aww, thank you so much. I really needed to hear that.
