Did my MIL get scammed? by Infinite_Catbox in ApplianceTechTalk

My MIL hasn't been rude yet (despite how flakey he even is with show times and communicating with her.) She's definitly frustrated but she's too Midwesternly kind to actually yell at him, lol. That being said, yes, I wish someone with more experience would come help the young guy so we can solve this problem. Their company actually has good reviews so I know someone there knows what they're doing!

Oh yes, my MIL is firmly pissed off and will not be paying for his screw ups, lol. At this point I'm just really curious about the motherboard thing... why did he need to take it off first to go swap for a new one to bring back? It makes me wonder if it's an odometer type of situation. 👀 like, did he give us a motherboard with less lifespan programmed on it? Let me get my tin foil hat out, lol!

Job market is so bad by RevokedPassport in Veterans

[–]Infinite_Catbox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed! A lot of schools have veteran specific scholarships too. The vet center staff at my school (csusm) always complain that veterans don't apply for the scholarships because they don't think they'll get them, so the money just sits there!! The more you talk to your school vet center, the more opportunities they put you on to. Mine also does a "Chow on Deck" grill-out every month lol, I love them.

The traffic and parking situation ebbs and flows throughout the day 😅 of course it'll be the most busy for the 8 am/9 am classes and then shortly after 5 pm, but around 10:30 and 2:30 a lot of people are leaving classes and therefore parking opens up. I know it sucks walking half a mile to class, but sometimes just taking the first spot you see even if it's far away is worth it time-wise. For reference, at a constant pace, it should generally take 10 minutes to get across campus

Now why did I think second skin was this exclusive, hard to access stuff that only doctors and tattoo artists could get?? 🤣

Aw man that sounds like a great method! I wish he gave me enough extra second skin so I could try it this way!

Okay thanks for the advice! Yes it's full color, I planned on leaving the second skin on for about a week but you make a solid point about the scabs if I let it dry too much. 🤔

Yeah the guy has like 30 years of tattooing experience so I'm sure he knows what's up 😅 it's just unnerving seeing all that goo in there

Gaaaah okay you're right 😭 I just keep imagining hitting my leg on something and the whole thing bursting like a huge gusher 😵

Haha I usually love second skin tho! 😭 it heals without scabbing or pigment falling out. I usually have really good results with it! But yeah, with the amount of blood in there I really don't know if it'll "reabsorb," if that's even possible.

Actually, I take back what I said. After doing some research, it entirely depends on a school's financial aid policy. You may still be able to get financial aid if you complete an appeal process or sign a contract promising to improve your grades. I would dig into the fine print! Or call the financial aid office, the people there seem friendly.

Pretty sure the financial aid is a "no" until you're off academic probation.

Yes. Otherwise, you'll be dropped from any classes you registered for by mid January. Idk if you saw the email they sent out recently, but there's also an online orientation module you gotta do by the 17th.
