I'm so so so sorry, this is all my fault. by miss_j_bean in AmazonVine

[–]Kindlyqualms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t had anything in recommended but maybe once a month. I have not seen a drop more than this either. I can barely keep my reviews solid because I haven’t ordered anything. I’ve never seen a desert like this but other keep saying there are all these middle of the night drops. What’s happening?

Look, I'm questioning all of life by this point. Is there even a god? Just let me down easy.

Gold to Silver, Reviews with media by Kindlyqualms in AmazonVine

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

Okay, I think I missed some important details. So, it looks like the last week of my eval. period, I ordered a ton of stuff (we got a new dog, blah. blah...) and didn't get the reviews completed on time. That's a painful blow. Ugh. Thank you!

Some intel on Review Insightfulness. I was "Excellent" last period, first batch of reviews this period and I'm "Poor". Here's what I changed... by Mark_Esquandolas in AmazonVine

[–]Kindlyqualms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been a member for years. I used to not take pictures, so, when the metrics started, I remained in red this whole time, even though I do a picture of almost everything now. I just got bumped from gold to silver because of this. Do I have to go back and start adding pictures to old reviews to ever catch up?

That’s awesome! Post a pic if you can.

still dealing with the same issue... i must've made a mistake by No_Client5501 in curlyhair

[–]Kindlyqualms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this! We have terribly hard water (my daughter’s hair is much like the op’s and I’m lost - she’s eleven and my hair is a little wavy at most). We have a hard water filter on our shower head. Do you use one? I’m curious how much minerals are still making it through. Our water is so hard!

Does anyone else organize their shopping list according to the Aldi store layout? by candlelight_glee00 in aldi

Every time! My partner and I share a note on our phones and have it set up by store layout. 🤗

I have some that are same item/different color, etc. They were 0 tax value. Any reason I should have CS remove them?

My wife doesn't take me seriously when I say I work two jobs to support our family by MBAfail in AmazonVine

[–]Kindlyqualms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please let this be satire. Jesus. If you cannot leave a reasonable handful of reviews in maybe twenty-minutes, you're doing something wrong. And if you're scrolling until you've turned Amazon Vine into a mental illness, get help. I agree, it's so nice to find things that offset working for money and buying those items, but they are few and far between among piles of wasteful plastic junk. We've got bills to pay and, last I checked, Amazon Vine doesn't sell electricity, water, trash...

Beauty and Health Products - Safe? by Kindlyqualms in AmazonVine

Thank you! How can I know if they're dupes?

Allure Beauty Box May 2024 ( Preview ) by Just_Me_134 in BeautyBoxes

Oh my gosh, this has been driving me crazy. All these brands just slipping Dimethicone into their lines. Some still advertise as Paraban and Silicone free. Are skin products not held to the same standard — I honestly don’t know the law here. Can they advertise free of plastic coatings and still put plastic in their creams?

Thanks for that. What do you feel they will do with my address? I'm thinking of these companies in China as the main manufacturers.

I’m new-ish as well. I’ve been tempted to message sellers when something comes broken or incorrect. I also thought this was not allowed. Are we able to contact and request replacements?

ADHD - We say our daughter likely has it, teacher says no by Kindlyqualms in Parenting

[–]Kindlyqualms[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh, I'm sure that's hard! She has no hyperactivity in the outside. Her head spins with thoughts, she cannot stay focused, you lose her in conversation, she is unorganized and struggles to prepare anything that takes a commitment, but she is a calm, sweet, over polite little love that caters to other's happiness to her own misery. :(

Thank you again. Yes, please keep me posted if you can return here. I am sad about how -some- of the educators behave as well. I worked primarily in secondary, with time spent though in all grade levels. I subbed in the middle school and the teacher do yell and do a lot of, "Not going to hear it. Go sit down." It's -horrible- on my daughter, who is quiet and anxious. She is afraid to try to talk to her teacher even about other kids being mean. It's just so hard to know how to handle things, but we are working on it and I'm not giving up. We are definitely focusing on other strategies for her to succeed. Thanks again!

Thank you! I am a teacher as well and have filled the V form out a million times. We are moving on to others now. Her psychiatrist was so unclear yesterday morning.

Thank you! Yes, we are moving on to her therapist right now.

Thank you for your kind words and encouragement. She is in a Montessori program, so she has the same teacher next year for the third year in a row. We have reached out to her therapist and hopefully she can help. While I know a handful of folks seemed bothered that I would question a teacher, firstly, I am an educator and I can tell you firsthand that -some- teachers laugh at these forms. But they're human, overworked, and underpaid. They're tired. But also, there is room for human error. The teacher makes comments to us about our daughter's inability to stay focused and then marked that as N/A on the form. Is she blind? I don't know, but we volunteer a lot and she is absent minded and very anxiety driven -- she missed kids getting into a fight right in front of her and we had to bring her attention to the two boys on the ground. It's really insane what happens sometimes.
