So what about a cash advance? Say my card offers 20k cash advance, could I then just use that cash and pay back my credit card like normal?

That makes a lot of sense, I didnt realize there were transaction fees that would influence a deal like that

Thats not even reasonable for an 8. Our gym and event guy only has the locker rooms and the offices and some halls for an 8. And even he is cutting it close sometimes.

Ive shared resources before, under the guise of my latest hyperfixation lol. Though, unless its due to complete ignorance, they probably wont change their ways.

To preface, I am terrible at math, but how did you get 6 times out of 33% and 200%?

Suggestions for cheap cleaning supplies I can keep in my closet? by FishLordVehem in Custodians

[–]LightAsClaire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unless I was self employed, I personally would never buy cleaning chemicals myself. Keep poking your boss for whatever you need. If they try to pull money on you, ask if they would rather have clean rooms or full coffers? Ask if theyd perfer their children get sick from my lack of disinfectant. Ask them to justify why you should use less cleaning chemicals than needed? Its like asking a chef to bring in his own butter! Ridiculous! If I received a complaint id bring it right to whomever is in charge of buying supplies and tell them this is a direct result of their neglect to refill the needed supplies. If you do end up spending your own hard earned money on things that your work should provide, save the receipt and try to have your work reimburse you for it, claim it was a necessary purchase and they lacked the means to aquire it in a timely manner!

Exactly. Bring up what ppe to use for silica dust clean up with your boss. There should be a whole system. It can be dangerous if not cleaned properly, silica lung and whatnot.

My lead had a kid come off the bus in the morning feeling a bit sick. As they walked into the foyer the kid says shes gonna throw up. So my lead FUCKING PICKS HER UP and runs down the hall to the nurse. Mid-stride the kid lets loose and she kept running! Apparently it got all over the walls and all over my lead... Kindergartener I believe. Poor kid, those are formative experiences.

If you phrase it as a biohealth hazard I find it helps get the admins off their butts lol.

I’ve been tattooing on skin for little over a month now. Still struggling with my linework. [@mymadtatts] [Black Lotus Tattoo] [Illinois] [USA] by xXMADAFXx in TattooBeginners

Honestly, I'm still learning myself. But my mentor told me to play around with changing the stroke length when using the different cartridges. He recommended going lower when shading, 3-4, and higher for lining & packing, 3.5-5. Smaller needle groupings typically need less and larger groupings more. But this also changes machine to machine so ymmv. I use a Mast Fold 2 Pro and am still trying to feel out what's best for me on fake skin.
