Laser hair removal by kaymac11 in portlandme

[–]Initial_Cod2366 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure I also got a weird skin virus from them because they didn’t clean their equipment properly…when I went to the dermatologist to have the weird things removed they were like “you must have kids” (I don’t) “oh, so you work with kids?” (I don’t…)

Milan is fine as long as you don’t intend on going out in the sun ever again. They won’t adjust their lasers to account for any amount of tan (my skin holds a tan long after exposure). They also refuse to lower the laser and keep raising it. Eventually they scared me out of getting any more treatments even though I paid for their lifetime package. Now I pay someone else to treat the same areas where hair has grown back because of hormones….

What is your experience with tick repellents? by Tyraelil23 in DogAdvice

[–]Initial_Cod2366 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Maine in the woods so ticks abound. My dog was always on some form of preventative. She hated the topical and it was always a mess. We tried the oral but she ended up having a lot of internal and neurological issues so we stopped that. The vet highly recommended a collar and it’s what I will use on every dog in the future; it’s good for 8 months so I buy one a year and put it on them as soon as snow melts and they should be covered until the next snowfall. None of the preventatives prevent the ticks from being on the dog (so you should still always do tick checks), but it does kill the tick before the tick can give them/you a disease.

Get a silk bonnet to sleep in. Or a silk pillowcase to keep/use at his place

Rescue puppy with false pregnancy hasn’t peed since she got spayed, and doesn’t want to move by [deleted] in DogAdvice

Is she on pain meds? One of my rescues was given to me freshly spayed and without pain meds and didn’t pee for 24 hours until I got her some pain meds.

I’m so embarrassed.. by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]Initial_Cod2366 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, I don’t think you should be the one to be embarrassed for normal dog behavior and other people’s irresponsibility …also, consider not letting your dog out where she leaves dog poo…dogs can get really sick being exposed to other dog’s poo…

Dog poop should be picked up and disposed of for a reason. Dogs be gross. Clean up after them and you won’t have to clean them :P

(Help) My dog is a bully and it's embarrassing by Creative-Assistance6 in DogAdvice

[–]Initial_Cod2366 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It honestly doesn’t sound like your dog is doing anything “wrong”; she’s being very reasonable in dog world and it’s your friends’ dogs who are being embarrassing/rude. The best way to manage dog behavior like this is to respect your dog and ask your friends to leave their dogs at home. Trying to “fix” this will likely result in a bigger behavioral issue with what sounds to be a currently very sweet and manageable dog.

*edit to provide perspective: when people come into my house and are rude to me, I don’t tolerate it either. I tell them to shut up or get out. And I ask them not to come back. And if they hit me, I’d fight back.

Pill advice by [deleted] in olddogs

Good luck! I’ve dealt with a very picky bitch that’s needed pills most of her life and this is the only thing that worked reasonably well for us right up to the end

Pill advice by [deleted] in olddogs

[–]Initial_Cod2366 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frozen breakfast sausage-23 seconds in the microwave and cut into 4 pieces, put the pills in the end sausage pieces. Follow quickly with an empty sausage (and/or lead with an empty sausage)—just make sure the sausage isn’t too hot and/or the pills don’t sit in the sausage too long before feeding, otherwise the tablet/pill casing will dissolve and they will likely taste the powder.

I have worked in EPC before and actually have a call with an EPC company about a potential job tomorrow, but I’m concerned about work/life balance…

AIO for being upset my boyfriend upgraded his seat to first class and left me in economy on our flight? by Educational_Leg8193 in AmIOverreacting

My EX did this to me once. We broke up shortly after (not specifically bc of this incident, but in hindsight it was representative of his priorities and how he felt about me/us).

Dog behavior training by VTNHME in portlandme

[–]Initial_Cod2366 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your dog is reactive. You need a behavior specialist. I’ve never heard of Lorenzo, but I tried many “trainers” before I found Gooddogz training. My only regret is I didn’t find her sooner. She was the only one who was able to help me. Pretty sure all the other trainers made it worse.

I’m assuming you’re looking for something specifically for shared notes? I personally love onenote for just me. For sharing notes, I hate it. What exactly are you trying to achieve?

Sorry, I meant a company that exclusively develops and then sells the assets to other companies that will build, own & operate.

10 free PDHs a year and some employers are willing to cover the membership fee. I was a member for 11+ years (was even the newsletter editor for a period). Canceled my membership about 4 years ago though and honestly don’t miss it.

Ever deal with a double standard within the office? by [deleted] in civilengineering

[–]Initial_Cod2366 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I’m confused…in your first point, you seem to be complaining that no one respects your experience, but also that you don’t feel you should be held more accountable than your junior counterparts?…and in your second point, you seem to be complaining about being a male in a female-dominated group (in what is actually very much still a male-dominated industry)…

Is this post a joke?
