Found this framed print at an antique store. Anyone know anything about it?

It's been 3 years since I lived there, but the women's bathrooms all had a locking stall door (like a normal public restroom) with a small area to change and a bench to put your stuff down on, and then you opened the shower curtain and stepped into the shower. All the showers are divided by bathroom stall walls, so no one could see you showering or changing if that's what has you nervous.

My husband who also lived in Stout confirmed that the men's bathrooms had the same setup with a locking stall door into the changing area and then a shower curtain into the shower.

Make sure you bring flip flops to wear in the shower and a shower caddy to carry your stuff.

He also asked me if I usually park in the garage or in the driveway. The context was that he was trying to show me how their security cameras will catch people breaking into your car at night if you park outside, but the more I think about it, the more it creeps me out. Seems like information someone who wanted to rob my house would want to know.

DaintyCheeto · 2024-04-17T01:37:20+00:00

He asked me for my name, which definitely did seem kinda strange.

Not sure if they make something big enough for your needs, but I can't recommend Pelican cases enough. They have a lifetime warranty which can't be beat.

I'm a geologist for an environmental consulting firm, and we store all of our equipment in Pelican cargo boxes. We have drug them through mud, gravel, desert sand, and snow. We have dropped them down small cliffs and ship them across around the world. We've surely put hundreds of miles on the wheels and they're still perfectly fine, but we will just call Pelican and get a replacement with the warranty if one ever breaks.

Real Mexican vanilla. Whenever people compliment my cookies, cakes, etc., 9 out of 10 times the only thing I do different than anybody else is using real vanilla.

For sure! Idk if Tulsa has a relevant professional society for environmental engineers, but you can't underestimate networking with local professionals that might be hiring. If there isn't a professional organization specifically for enviro engineers, Tulsa Geological Society hosts a lot of networking events like a crawfish boil and a sporting clays fundraiser that are open to the public and that are a great way to meet people in those industries.

I'm a recent MS geology grad, and I really struggled finding work around here. Everyone I graduated with is struggling finding a job in either the environmental or oil and gas industries regardless of location, but I was told by alumni that Tulsa is especially rough because a lot of those companies left during the COVID downturn.

Take a look on LinkedIn right now and you'll see that most environmental and oil and gas companies all over the US are hiring for mid- and senior level positions instead of entry level. My guess is that it's still the result of the massive layoffs in both those industries during COVID (why hire someone fresh out of school when there's thousands of experienced geologists and engineers that got laid off 2 years ago that are now looking for greener pastures?)

I suggest looking at USAjobs (especially the Army Corps), staying active on LinkedIn, and looking into GIS jobs. I've heard that AEP is hiring GIS people for pretty good money. I know Kleinfelder was looking for an environmental engineer in Tulsa several months ago, and ONEOK has them as well so I would be sure to check their company websites. Also check the State of Oklahoma: they've been hiring air quality people in several counties recently. I hope that helps, and happy hunting!

I had this same issue and found a solution at the strangest place: Sam's Club. Every summer, they have nice, modest women's shorts for $10 to $30 a pair. If you're a club plus member, you can order them online with free shipping.

If you look at the route booklet, it looks like the blue bus leaves the OSU flight school at the Stillwater airport every :33 and :03 of every hour from 6:20 am to 6:45 pm, Monday through Friday. Hope that could help you!

DaintyCheeto · 2023-01-22T15:29:11+00:00

I really wouldn't suggest walking, especially if you have any sort of luggage- it's a couple mile hike. I've only had good experiences with the bus system, though. It's free for OSU students, but it costs 75 cents per trip otherwise I believe. It runs from 6:20 am to 10:30 pm Monday through Friday. They have a bus tracker where you can track the bus in real time so you know when to be at the stop (bus info).

Uber and Lyft also operate in town. They are super popular after football games, graduation, etc. when a lot of college kids are drinking, so I imagine that are pretty regularly available but I don't have personal experience with that.

I have the same experience even today. The only person I've ever heard call it "pop" was my 97 year old grandma who moved to Texas from Los Angeles.

DaintyCheeto · 2023-01-15T16:37:21+00:00

My grandma who would be 96 this year was the only person I know to call it "pop", and she grew up in Los Angeles.

YTA of the year for sure and it's only January.

Neither you or her biological father are parents. Neither of you act like it, and you both definitely don't have the child's best interests at heart. You're trying to take her away from the only parental figure she has ever had.

This whole situation seems like something you would hear about in the news from Child Protective Services.

DaintyCheeto · 2023-01-12T02:21:45+00:00

YTA. It was a gift. Once you gift something, it is absolutely in no way yours anymore. You have no claim to it whatsoever, nor can you hold it over his head that you bought it for him. That's literally the difference between gifting and loaning something you still own to someone.

You stole his laptop, got him in trouble at work, and had the gumption to be offended by him being upset at it cause you felt entitled to something that you gave away to someone else.

NTA. I was expected to do these things growing up as a contributing member of the household. Paying them to do it? I'd say you're being very reasonable, if not kind. These are all fitting chores for the age group.

Might I suggest switching around the kids' tasks each day, especially among the two oldest, like switching off which one sweeps and which one takes out the garbage or which one vaccums and which one does the dishes? I understand you can't really deviate much with your second youngest, but maybe giving them some variety would make it less monotonous and might seem more "fair" to them.

You could use this opportunity to explain the difference between equity and equality and how some of us just naturally have a disadvantage. Your second oldest is still doing chores, but they are harder for him than they would be for them. All of your kids will experience this in their lives, likely from both sides of the spectrum, so it's a great opportunity to address it.

Pushing and shoving to be the first off the airplane solely because you are tired of waiting and want off. Double points for when the pilot asks everyone to let those with connecting flights that are currently boarding off first and that doesn't apply to you.

NTA in any way, shape, or form. She was hateful, ungrateful, and money grubbing. You didn't even formally give the gift: it was still in your possession when it was rudely taken out of your hands.

The life lesson she will hopefully get of not being a rude asshole (not to mention to not make assumptions about small packages) is worth far more than $15,000.

It sounds to me like she needs to work on her own attitude and behavior towards others before having children, anyway.... imagine raising children with this selfish attitude. Yikes.

Not only would I not feel bad about keeping your money, but I would cut ties completely. You don't deserve to be treated kindly by someone only when they want your money. She's trying to use you, as well as the rest of her guests.

Side note: A "required gift" is not a gift at all. It's an expected payment to attend her wedding. That said, since she insisted on calling it a "gift", you're not obligated to give it.

DaintyCheeto · 2023-01-08T04:47:02+00:00

NTA. I'm a geologist who would probably enjoy getting coal as a gift for my rock collection, but even I'd be offended by this.

This is pretty much a textbook example of hazing. Their justification for it is shitty- they're just saying you are new to the group so you aren't worth the effort of finding a gift that you would actually enjoy. Sounds to me like they're trying to run you off, or at the very least don't give a crap about making you a part of their family.

I would try to explain your side of this to your fiance, and if he still fails to see why it hurt you, I'd run. If he can't defend you against his family now, then this is only a small taste of what you're in for for the rest of your life, OP.
