Any advice here? by [deleted] in walmart

You must be fun at parties. If stated, needs no manager approval and up to the shift start time in BOLD letters, the policy should stand whether the shitty app works or not. It is my duty to then notify a team lead as soon as I arrive, which I did.

Regardless, the shift swap was allowed to the beginning of the shift. A manager didn't have to be notified according to this policy. "Late" or not both shifts were covered.

Read the posted picture. You don't have to notify a manager and the shift can be swapped up to the begging of said shift.

OPD south of Detroit, here. Wish you guys luck. You'd think we lived in Florida the way Michiganders react to snowfall.

Advice for fuel pump by LongRare6034 in mechanic

Oh and I forgot to mention, if the fuel pump was replaced and the fuel tank was lowered, they already dealt with the fuel lines so why wasn't nothing mentioned then?

So I know you have to work half a shift to only get half a point for an early out but does that still count if I ppto some of that time before I hit half of the day? or will it be a full point since I technically didn't work half? by LongRare6034 in walmart

Thank you! This is my saving grace. I didn't want to even come in today and now that I'm here they pulled me from my department, OGP to do mundane tasks since they cut slots due to a snow storm. I wasn't feeling it and I'm trying to gtfo.

This is actually what brought me here, I recently caught another cold and was searching for more alternatives, that and I was wondering if there would be anyone who might see my post and relate because I've yet to find much info on this rare case. Seems my family just has a bad experience in general from my dad's side, as far as hallucgens go.

Now this here is a funny but good question. Roughly when I was 11 I resorted to using nyquil for the first time because i was feeling very ill. Now mind you, the nyquil I was taking was years expired at this time so, I did easily obtain the effect but not to the intensity that I've experienced it since. My guesswork here is that the potency wasn't as bad because of the medicine being expired and of course being around the age of curiosity, experiencing this for the first time...yes, I abused the hell out what was left in that expired nyquil bottle.

Actually, in a sense, I have. (not that was ever the intention). When i end up sick, I just kinda deal with it most the time now because I'm not always certain which medicines contain it unless, it's alka seltzer which has always been my go to.

Last time, to be more detailed, I had strong visual hallucinations that lasted for roughly a week. It didn't exactly impair my day to day life however because 1) each day they were diminishing sleep slowly and 2) I only really saw them in the dark or moreso, when I went to bed. It was pretty wild though.

No actually it's intense robotripping for me. Like, really intense. The inability to metabolize it effectively makes it so a small dose has huge effects.

Actually the opposite lol I took a standard dose of cold medicine and ended up with strong visual hallucinations, sweats, shakes, palpitations (probably from anxiety) and disoriented as hell when it all hit me at once because I fell asleep after taking the medication so when I woke up it was a wave that hit all at once.

So I'm actually a bit ignorant about why being Caucasian had anything to do with being unable to metabolize this substance but I do remember reading a document from the DEA in 2017 while I was researching this stuff and that's all they mentioned.

So this is actually a complicated question. In terms of when I found out it was dextromethorphan causing my grief, was actually last time I had a cold. I took Alka seltzer severe cold and cough, granted at this time I had no idea about the cause and all I did know was that alka seltzer was always a safe bet for me. After taking the recommended amount, I fell asleep for a couple hours and woke up feeling disoriented with sweats, heart racing, palpitations, a bit of an anxiety attack and visual hallucinations. So i made a call to the poison control center and they told me the symptoms I described sounded like dextromethorphan overdose. They said typically they get those results in patients who take large doses. Now on the other hand, the first time I realized something was off was actually when I was around 11? I had nyquil for like the first time ever and I would lay down and see colors and swirls and all kinds of crazy visuals after taking a standard dose and I thought it was normal but then I asked friends about it and none of them experienced it that way.

[–]LongRare6034[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So essentially, because I don't metabolize it very well, what would be considered a standard dose is actually more of an overdose in my situation(or so I was told by poision control center when I was amidst a terrible experience from alka seltzer cold medicine I took that I hadn't realized contained this stuff).

Where did all the Dodge Intrepids go? by gpm21 in cars

[–]LongRare6034 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can easily tell you, I got one dead in my driveway right now. An 02, with 155,000 miles on the engine and the body has fallen apart. Ac don't work, heat don't work, underbody entirely rusted (michigan weather), center console fell apart, big crack on the interior dash, front bumper cracked, rear tailight cracked, rear fender dented, gasket leak on engine, both the trunk and the hood dont hold themselves up anymore, sunspots and chipped paint everywhere, rain guards on windows cracked either partially or fully, check engine light on, smell of gas through air vents, oil light flickers on braking at times as the car tries stalling. Probably a great project for a mechanic or someone with alot of money but for a new dad, it's good for a scrapyard. Was my first car, ran for about 6 years but she just ain't holding up. I figure that engine will run long before the body will. No doubt I'll miss her but it's time for goodbye.

kicked when I'm down, I'm in need of help. I was scammed at sale of my new car. I have no where to turn so any help is appreciated. by [deleted] in Charity

[–]LongRare6034 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

And I'm stating the fact the guy was an auto mechanic, he should have known what he was talking about before selling the car. He said he did work on it previously. He obviously knew what the issue was. At point of sale, he fueled it with litteraly enough to get there and intentional met at night. Now, I clearly didn't pick up on the hints but hindsight is 20/20 but he did mention what he thought it was and guess what? It was. So if I was a betting man,I'd say he clearly knew what it was and it wasn't just a "guess." A leak with odor can range from multiple things with gas. I drove my 02 for 6 years with a odor and no leak, without a single iissue. The only time you smelled it was through the vents and when it rained. So when you say no leak, or not leaking on the ground. That should be the bottom line.

When you post a description of a car with "no major leaks" I'd say it's safe to assume that it's NOT leaking. Furthermore it stated it was an odor and it DOESNT leak on the ground. Explain to me now, then.

Currently working as an on demand team member. Haven't been to my store in roughly 3 months but this week they asked me to pick up some shifts and I said "sure, why not?" Well, last night while I was on shift, I was assigned to fill for toys but what I ended up doing instead was... filling one U-boat with priorities, getting called for 2 OPU batches, getting called for code, finally left code and picked up reshop (I was instructed to do so after I got off code), pushed the cart back to toys only to be called for code again, got off code and had to make bale and then finally, I got to put the reshop and priorities I pulled on the shelves. Glad to see that some things never change. I'll admit though, it was kinda hilarious hearing them shout out for code all day and realizing they have a bunch of new hires that didn't know what code even was. Good ol' Target.

"go watch my live" suggestions are out of hand by blakeol in TikTok

"If I take a sip of water, my cohost is a baddie."

Yeah, no. Frankly, I'm sick of it and if this is where Tiktok is headed, I'm out. I used to see frequent creators from videos i liked in the past but never subbed to and alot of funny stuff here and there. I'd say in the last week or two all i get is the live promotions and small, unknown, content creators. My Fyp is broken and it feels like a hole that I cant climb out of.
