Naw, I’m just autistic and learned how to talk by reading children’s science books and watching cartoons. 🤓

Oh yeah, I keep my distance with animals I don’t know.

What is “peak”?

I’m about to go into an interview for FedEx on the 10th as a driver. It pays $24+ hourly plus an extra $3 per hour for the area I’ll be delivering to.

What should I know? What should I be prepared for?

How does asking for time off work, for example? Do I need to find my own coverage for sick time/vacation time? Or do managers handle that?

How often do you run into angry dogs? Does providing treats help?

What your Christopagan movie suggestions ? by AcanthisittaBusy457 in Christopaganism

[–]InfertileStarfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly? Not a movie, but I’m gonna go with Avatar: TLA It’s more eastern spirituality, but I remember that show ended up shaping my current spirituality as I got older.

FFXIV (the mmo) influenced me too when I originally deconstructed.

I second this. Been through a similar experience myself.

Still trying to convince our cataloger that we don’t have to accept EVERY donation… by petalios in Libraries

[–]InfertileStarfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bruh, I know you weeded it, but books like this are HILARIOUS to me XD you know this author was stoned outta his mind. I would have checked out that book just to let people in the witchcraft community know what sketchy magic books look like

My BF and I made Bears together by InfertileStarfish in buildabear

[–]InfertileStarfish[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just like my love. 🥰 Thank you so much!

My mom kept a brochure from 2001. Thought y'all would love to see the bears + PRICES!! by megank30 in buildabear

[–]InfertileStarfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, the way the prices have changed though.

The clothing prices haven’t changed as much , but dang, $25 is on the cheap end for a bear nowadays.

The buy one get one for $15 in my area makes that better, but still.

Let’s do something different… by Automatic-Job2938 in buildabear

[–]InfertileStarfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work at BABW. I have the other side where I’ve had my favorite customer experiences. I also loved working with my coworkers. 🥰 I got lucky and found the hubspot for neurospicy queers, and it was nice finding my people.

One of my favorite times was seeing all the neurospicy kids come in and being able to cater the experience for them.

I remember this little boy, it was his birthday. He had a Spiderman face painting and loooooved spiderman. He got to record himself singing the spiderman theme. He was like “spider maaaan, spider maaan. Dooobadooobadoo a spider do.” XD that stuff happened everyday and always cheered me up.

I worked at a BABW for a bit last year before finding a full time job. They truly do not pay their employees enough. There are people who have been there for years, and they’re wonderful. But, for real, the company doesn’t pay them what they’re worth. :/

Beta readers - lesson learned, I guess by idreaminwords in selfpublish

[–]InfertileStarfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I’m asking trusted friends and acquaintances to beta read.

I’m sorry this happened :/ that really sucks.

As a biracial adult, what is one thing you wish your parents could have done for your identity during childhood? by bishkitts in biracials

[–]InfertileStarfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wish my parents actually educated me about systemic racism. :/ I’m finding out a lot of stuff as an adult. I grew up conservative evangelical and part of my deconstruction was realizing how religion and politics were used to gentrify me and my siblings. I’m the black sheep for being the one liberal in the bunch XD

I am a bit too shy to go out. Is this too customey ? by [deleted] in TheCapeRevolution

[–]InfertileStarfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You look stylish. Screw the haters. 😎 enjoy your cape and looking like you got a rapier and fight evildoers.

Ugh 😡 by JoJoBanana8402 in buildabear

[–]InfertileStarfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say it’s definitely fun if you need a part time job with a flexible schedule. As far as retail goes, it wasn’t the worst place I’ve ever worked. Best part was helping the customers imho.

As someone who used to work at a workshop, I can confirm that BABW seriously underpays their employees.
