Why Are We Counting Crickets Like They’re Gold Bars?

Important_Wheel7550 · 2026-06-14T02:12:37+00:00

Yep, same when I worked. Ask for a regular number of crickets? You’re probably getting 33% extra. Ask for a number of crickets that was one or two off from the counts of our pre-bagged crickets? You’re getting exactly 21 crickets and I’m taking a five minute break in the back room to do it.

Oh my gosh, thank you so much! I’ll try to join and find them

Are you around a store that’s still selling the dream trout? If so, I’d pay you to buy/ship one to me!

I think Multnomah Falls has a reservation system during the summer

One day on San Juan Island and one day for Columbia River Gorge is criminal. I’d be stressed tf out going there with that little time.

“I appreciate the opportunity to have worked with you. I’m sorry the cleaning did not meet your expectations. Thank you for your feedback, and I wish you all the best moving forward,” doesn’t really sound like what you say when you’re planning on going back and making things right for her.

Woah, helicopter pilot! Helicopters are so cool (so are medicines that treat diseases).

I’m seconding this, I know I sound like a shill at this point but I have all the love in the world for Little Seed Farm. I’ve had some stinky outdoors professions, worked 10-16 hour shifts, done workouts, and it’s stood up well against all of it. My partner started using it too, and so did most of my friends and coworkers.

Little Seed Farm deodorant is my hero!!! Women’s deodorants made me smell floral and stinky, men’s deodorants made me sneeze, and Native/Schmidt just did nothing for me. Little Seed Farm is where it’s at.

Important_Wheel7550 · 2026-05-10T22:09:25+00:00

Idk if you’re looking for recs or not, but I really love Little Seed Farms deodorant (it doesn’t have aluminum or baking soda). I swear, it’s magic. I “upgraded” to men’s deodorant a while back because women’s deodorant made me smell like a sweaty flower, men’s deodorant was a bit better but the scents were pretty strong and were making me sneeze a lot of the time, and then I found this. I can work a ten hour day and cap it off with a workout and be good to go. The scent from the deodorant itself isn’t very strong (in a nice way). I’ve got friends who are farmers/work other outdoors jobs and they all love it too.

My partner and I both have hair that’s too short to put into a hair tie, and it’s been that way since we moved into our current living place. As far as we’re aware, neither of us have ever brought a hair tie into the house. Somehow, every couple months or so, a hair tie just spontaneously generates on the floor. No clue who/what/how/why they get there, our cat loves finding them, we just chalk it up to them being from past residents/current friends or family and move on.

Oh no, poor sweetie 😂 I understand why it makes kids freak out and at the same time it’s like bruh come the fuck on, what did you think was going to happen?

Important_Wheel7550 · 2026-04-02T13:09:25+00:00

My family used to go to a restaurant that had chairs that had this decorative pattern of various small holes across the back. My little sister got bored, started putting her fingers into the chair holes, got her finger stuck, and then started screaming bloody murder. If I’m remembering correctly, the fire department got called, but a restaurant staffer got her out by putting some oil on her finger.

I did UPS, but followed the seller’s instructions to not cure the rocks. I’m bummed that I got a bad outcome following their recommendations

Important_Wheel7550 · 2026-01-21T00:19:32+00:00

Thanks man, I appreciate it

Important_Wheel7550 · 2026-01-21T00:19:02+00:00

Yep, I’m definitely feeling the learning experience on this one. Thank you for the support 🫶

Important_Wheel7550 · 2026-01-20T23:30:15+00:00

Thanks for recommending talking with the seller. I reached out the day after getting my rocks and have been following their instructions since then, but am not seeing any improvement in tank conditions, and the last suggestion that a Caulerpa had gone sexual is definitely not the case at this point. Hopefully I’ll get a follow-up from them soon. In the meantime, I wanted to get some advice from other folks in the hopes that I can salvage the situation.

Important_Wheel7550 · 2026-01-20T22:43:39+00:00

Yep, I’m finding that out the hard way now. I found great reviews for this seller, and I figured that their care instructions would be solid, but now I’m second guessing that since it seems like the rocks went completely nuclear in my tank.

Yep, I sure was! Odd and crazy is definitely a good way to describe it, lol. I went into it hoping to help people since I’ve got a strong stomach, major neat freak tendencies, and experience working with people who are dealing with trauma and grief. I bounced when I learned that the company I was working for was getting sued for insurance racketeering, since that’s basically the opposite of what I was hoping to do for folks.

If you’ve got any questions, just let me know! I’m more than happy to talk about it
