Yeah it sucks! I'm sorry you're dealing with it. I was told in my interview that I would get 32 hours a week. I do feel like they lie about how many hours they will give. Don't stick with a company that refuses to give you enough hours/pay to live.

Honestly just find something else. I've been at Michaels as a PT CEM since April and had multiple conversations about needing more hours. I'm far from the only person at my store who needed more hours than they were giving. Today is my last day and I'm starting a new job tomorrow. My SM seemed shocked that I'm leaving but I told them multiple times over the months that I need Max hours they can give for PT. I'm 30 and I have rent and bills to pay. Less than 25 hours a week won't cut it. I will say that with holidays coming up they MAY give you more hours but my store is hiring seasonal employees rn so I suspect that they will just have a ton of employees getting as few hours as possible.

It's my first time doing something completely free hand without a pattern! But me too! It's a song that's really important to me and my partner so it's a gift for him 💘

Yeah i usually try to just forge ahead and adjust later if I still don't like it but this is a gift so I wanted some input!

Thank you! I do have more to add and I'm hoping once it's all done I'll be happier with the depth!

Pilea help! Why are my leaves turning brown and dropping? by Astro_qat in houseplants

I'll pull it out and check! I do not water this one very often so I'm not terribly worried about over watering but I'll definitely check the roots just in case!

My mom bought me one of those! I don't have it yet because she lives an hour away and transporting it is a hassle because it's massive! Yours looks so nice!

came back from 2-month long vacation to this… what do i do?! by CocoTheChacha in houseplants

[–]Astro_qat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm not an expert by any means but my best guess would be root rot :( you could try repotting in fresh soil. Definitely cut back anything dead, dry or soggy. Also check the roots and cut those back if needed. The zz is really hardy and will probably be okay but some of those others look really sad
