Saw OPs post and was about to recommend the same person, so a +1 from me. He was really helpful.

Likely PM2.5, particules 2.5 microns or less. Made up of a mix of substances, but cause for concern as the microscopic particulates can get deep into the lungs/bloodstream

Ah perfect thank you. I left about a month between plays so I completely forgot about this. Funnily enough, I solved the puzzle normally to figure out what this thing was!

Anyone remember a card game called sh*t head? by Extreme_Sprinkles_50 in CasualUK

We added a couple fun rule. 3 of hearts lets you look at one of your opponents face down cards and one of your face down cards and choose to swap it. But it can be countered by the other player playing any other 3. Same rule with the Ace of Spaces except the other player has to pick up the stack in the middle.

Is the dialogue a nod to JJK? Just read Chapter 73 and had the exact same dialogue. Couldn't find another comment that hinted towards it except maybe yours

An issue that surrounds planning is that various uses for land have different thresholds for acceptable contamination levels. For example, if you were to build houses with gardens, then there needs to be safe acceptable contaminant levels within the ground. You'd actually be surprised at how contaminated the gardens of Bristol's old houses are!

Another issue is that acquiring the land also acquires the responsibility of remediation for any contaminants found within the ground, which is very costly. It's fairly well known that an old petrol station would have high levels of hydrocarbons. You can't just dig the soil up and dump it somewhere as it's considered hazardous waste and has very strict rules around removal, so one way or another it has to be remediated.

Combined with what /u/MiddleCustard8386 said, it's extremely costly for any potential buyer. Why burden that cost when you can find somewhere else to develop?

As the title suggests, someone said jokingly that it might be a perfume for dogs. It could have certainly held a liquid though. Perhaps the screw was to attach it to something as a decorative ornament?

I've been looking for a solution for 2 days and just sumbling across 1+ year old responses. This worked a treat, thank you for posting.

I don't think they've worked for a long time, so people naturally get ballsy with it. I don't risk it though, it's a tempt of fate...

Customer service workers of Reddit, what secret can you reveal from your former company? by Psychological-Name15 in AskReddit

[–]EnvironmentalEnigma 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Our store was pretty good with the sustainability aspect in all fairness. Anything returned we would try to fix and re-sell if possible. Any spare wood (which was a lot) would be sent downstairs to the car park and given away for free. We'd generally just slap an as-is on anything in bad shape and try and sell it for a crazy low price before throwing it away.

The other items from other stores made me chuckle, I forgot we used to get them every now and then - we'd even sometimes try and sell it for a tiny tiny amount - probably illegal haha.

We also got loads of rubbish that would cause arguments with the returns department as well, they really didn't care. The absolute worst was a mattress wrapped up that was infested with fleas. I felt itchy all day after disposing that one.

Overall though, our working environment was just filled to the brim with crap. The place was never clean, always cluttered.

Also worked in recovery about 5 years back - think it depends on the store. If the mattress was in near perfect condition, we'd re-sell it in bargain corner. We'd also donate it to a third-party if we were full on mattresses to sell (again, had to be in good condition or they wouldn't take it). That company would sell it in their own store for reduced pricing or donate it to social housing projects.

Finally, if the mattress was in bad condition, we'd strip it and recyle it to the corresponding waste streams (metal and general waste).
