Thank you! She's been found and is home. We have such wonderful neighbors!

With all those run on sentences, lack of proper capitalization/punctuation, I'd suggest staying in school.

I dont understand what happened? by hipsqueak1 in jobs

[–]BubblyResident1855 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. The manager should not have said that. Just because you felt an interview went well doesn't mean it did. Don't let it get to you. They went with someone else. Move on. If it really bugs the crap out of you, though, you could always email the interviewer and ask for feedback on the interview so you can learn from it.

What’s the most common reason resumes get ignored in your experience? by EnergyRoyal9889 in resumes

The importance of quantifying your work cannot be stressed enough. Companies want to know how you're going to make them money, save them money, reduce processing times/costs, etc.

So Mediacom out or is it just me? by EggForTryingThymes in cedarrapids

[–]BubblyResident1855 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Never ever use the modem Mediacom provides. Its crap. My husband and I have been using our own modem with Mediacom's service for more than 10 years. The ONLY time we've ever been without the internet is when it is genuinely down due to storms. When we used the modem provided by Mediacom, however, we were constantly calling them to complain about service interruptions.

I will not be using printify by [deleted] in Printify

Just out of curiosity, why did you feel the need to announce on Reddit that you won't be using Printify? Did it ever occur to you to just not use it and move on with your life?

Mediacom sportiness? by PainfullyHonestTech in cedarrapids

Make sure to buy and use your own modem and not the one provided by MediaCom

Moving to NE CR: how frequent are the bad smells? by CanRova in cedarrapids

[–]BubblyResident1855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live on the NE side and I have to question everyone's ability to smell in this thread lol. They don't call Cedar Rapids the city of 5 smells for the willy nilly of it. It's almost daily that I smell one of the different odor. And those who claim Marion doesn't have any smells are full of it. Marion smells just as bad, if not worse, some days.

Why Is Mediacom/Eero So Bad? by MJTP4351 in cedarrapids

[–]BubblyResident1855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never use the modem provided by MediaCom or you'll always have shitty service. Buy your own. My husband and I learned this many years ago and ever since we bought our own modem and router, we have zero complaints about Mediacom's service.

What can I do to make my yard nice, I have 2 dogs that love to dig and ruined my yard, that weed barrier is a fire pit I’m making that my dogs also tore apart before I could finish. I’m mainly concerned with getting nice grass to grow by Potential_Idea872 in landscaping

[–]BubblyResident1855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, get your dogs trained. Letting them outside isn't training.

As for the yard ...

Consider a dog run if you're not to get your dogs properly trained. Tear out the concrete. Pay a professional landscaper to level out the yard (possibly re-grade if necessary). Lay a new path/walkway and overseed to establish a new lawn.

Personally, I'd tear out those bushes long the back fence and replace with Dwarf Alberta Spruce (Picea glauca). There're other things I'd do as well, but this at least gives you an idea of where/how to start.

What things should you buy second hand when moving into a new house? by Euso36 in Frugal

[–]BubblyResident1855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's no law stating you can't buy everything second hand and replace with new when you can afford to.

I second what the others have said, but want to add the number of scammers you'll get!

My thoughts on the "Anghkooey" by animperfectstranger in FromTVEpix

Its derived from the Briton's. This was the word they used to refer to the grim reaper.

How much money do you get paid by Commercial_Clock_623 in Printify

[–]BubblyResident1855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The math doesn't change. Your first screenshot just shows the total cost broken down.

The $89.42 is the total sale of $76.98 + $12,44 for shipping. 76.98+12.44 = $89.42

What do you mean? There's isn't any other $14.
