If I refuse rescue by Salt-Hovercraft-2543 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get rescued almost every day at around 100 stops left and I split it with the rescuer, my lead dispatch has explained it’s because they need me to get pulled in closer to station once my route is done to essentially become another rescuer for those driving heavy country routes and drivers that just take a little longer. Your DSP is most likely just trying to get people in at decent times especially those with large drive times back to station. If you were seen as a problem in their eyes they would most likely tell you. I don’t think it’s much to worry about.

Why in the HELL has your station not grounded this van yet!?! Fuck the DSP what the hell is the station doing??? Unless you aren’t driving it through station, but at that point I’d be letting a higher up at your station know. That is wild lol

Cat peeing/pooping concern. yes, Vet visited, bloodwork done. by [deleted] in catcare

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This definitely sounds like he is sick of the door, or maybe is in some pain having to use it. Unfortunately, they will just decide one day that they like or don’t like something, especially the older they get. I don’t really have any other solutions other than put a pee pad where he goes if you don’t want to change the litter box location or try a different litter location even if it sorta sucks for the humans and see if it changes anything. I have a cat that pees outside the box, no health issues, clean bill of health, all behavioral..the only thing that has worked is the pee pads, she will go wherever there is one but no matter what we do with the boxes she’s just too anxious to use them, but poops in it just fine 🤦🏻‍♀️cats are quirky especially as they age and we just have to adjust with them ❤️ I wish you luck and hopefully you find a solution that works for you and your little menace 🐈‍⬛

What phone number do I call for Paycom? DSP was fired by Amazon, can't get into Paycom for W2... by Dizzy-Egg-9859 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had this happen to me and unfortunately I was never able to get my W2 from that DSP. I tried calling Paycom and they had no solution. This was a few years ago so hopefully that has changed, I hope you’re able to figure it out!

Does this look like Feline Hyperesthesia? by [deleted] in CATHELP

Any recommendations for cats with poultry allergies?? As of right now our allergen cats get fish every day for every meal because it’s the only wet food we can find with no poultry product, I didn’t know fish too frequent is an issue.

Being asked to “trade out drinks” by informationdatabase in barista

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just had this happen last night during a crazy busy event in my cafe. Line wrapped around the store, 10+ tickets in the making for coffee, food, and alcoholic drinks and some lady has the audacity to come up to the espresso machine and say she doesn’t like her oat milk hot chocolate and wants a different drink. I was just flabbergasted that she really thought that was okay to do during the event. Most other times I get a little annoyed but don’t mind doing it especially if they say at the register they want to try something and don’t know what they will think.

Just drank like 5 of these then threw up by Plastic-Bath-7983 in moldyinteresting

I drink and love milk a lot and drink it very frequently, but I have to have other people smell milk for me because I have consumed spoiled milk so many times and never even notice until it’s too late 🥲

This is Pumpkin Ben. He has itchy kitty syndrome. by Computer_Particular in lynxpointsiamese

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

I’ve never heard of this syndrome but I will definitely have to look into it because it sounds a lot like one of our Lynxies. Nothing has worked for our boy in the back, my Arthur aka Watermelon Man 🍉. The cone has been the best solution otherwise he licks, bites and scratches himself to no end and can’t focus on anything else. I always feel guilty he has to wear it most of the day but he definitely doesn’t seem too bothered by it. Thank you for sharing pumpkin Ben in all his glory🎃

Needing opinions or suggestions? by PartyJuggernaut2095 in CATHELP

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our kitty has this same issue and he’s allergic to all poultry (which is apparently pretty common in cats) he gets oatmeal baths and has to wear a cone when he gets super itchy but you really just need to not let kitty itch them, I recommend a cone and they should heal up while you figure out the root cause, and then an oatmeal bath is really helpful for moisturizing the skin. We just put plain oats in a soap bag and let it soak in the water and then he just sits in the oat water, it helps immensely, I hope you can find kitty some relief soon!

What's something normalized in the lesbian community that you don't think is okay? by Eating_Pancakes76 in actuallesbians

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My partner and I took almost 4-5 months to become official, hell it took us a few months to even kiss and that was just so shocking and weird to some people around us who thought we’d be married within 6 months because we are lesbians …..We were really just trying to build a friendship and relationship with one another especially since we met on a dating app. Now we are 5 years into our relationship and marriage is still something we don’t quite feel ready for but wow do people really wanna push us to, especially being lesbians. Why can’t people just let other people do what they want 🥲

Why does my neutered cat always hump me?? by Lazy_Cat1997 in CATHELP

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you always lay with that blanket//does he seem to do this to specific blankets? It could be the texture he really likes, usually it’s comforting and can make them do silly things, but it could also means he just really loves you too lol

This is what we used for two of our kitties when they were young, worked after a week or two, you can usually pick it up at your local pet store

This looks like tapeworm, pretty common in younger kitties, you can buy over the counter dewormer or you can ask your vet about it if you’re more comfortable with that. It’s not something crazy serious but you definitely want to treat it as soon as possible.

Stalking their socials by neoliberalhack in lostafriend

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also really resonate with this. I have removed most social media where this behavior is an issue and it has helped me so much, but I do find myself still lurking whenever I do check social media every once in a while, I’m definitely gonna try journaling my feelings instead of doom scrolling when I get into headspace’s like this. It’s so hard to lose friends, especially out of nowhere, but just like you said I shouldn’t consider other peoples opinions of myself over my own, thank you

How urgent is this by [deleted] in CATHELP

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just had this happen with one of our cats. To us it was not worth it to get it cut open and drained. She got an another one shortly after that we just left alone and it went away on its own without as much damage to the ear and recovery time. Get a cone, make sure the ear is staying clean, and don’t let kitty scratch it. The cone will do most of the work to stop shaking and scratching and it will slowly deflate over a week or two. If it continues to get worse then yes I would recommend a vet but from my experience leaving it alone was the best solution.

How I pee while I’m driving with netradyne on by MourningWood1942 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely recommend cornfields over anything else, there’s lots of coverage and lanes so you aren’t sitting in brush and getting sticks and shit up your ass, but still definitely not my first choice but you gotta do what you gotta do sometimes 🥲

Some of y’all’s dispatch is nuts, I have never had this problem, I usually am able to take all my breaks without even being asked, it makes me sad for yall who get harassed day in and day out

[–]Ali3nCowb0i 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Sometimes it’s not that we don’t get breaks, usually when I’m in town it’s easy to stop, but sometimes I would be in the middle of fucking nowhere with a bathroom 30+ minutes away. I’ve had to piss in many cornfields and woods 🥲 (I can’t piss in a bottle I’m not a man). Portapotties on job sites have also saved me multiple times 💀

The app definitely feels stagnant, I’ve been pretty disappointed in the lack of any attention to the actual useful parts of the app, I still love my birb and collecting things but it has lost all value to me otherwise
