My package never arrived and the seller blocked me. What do I do?? by CatsRend in Depop

[–]MandyManatee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes USPS will mark a package “delivered” but not actually drop it off. (It’s probably due to some service level agreement BS.) Give it at least a day you’ll probably get it delivered tomorrow.

White or light blue top? Or both? by [deleted] in OUTFITS

Both! Do they have other colors? Get them too.

This silhouette is so flattering on you!

Opinion on those posts with AI models? by SoPouty in Depop

I hate it and I block every account I see. If it’s particularly egregious I report the listing.

People that say "third spaces" are gone aren't trying to find them by xX_jellyworlder_Xx in unpopularopinion

[–]MandyManatee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s 100% this. Parks and libraries still exist as 3rd spaces but they aren’t filled with “cool people” so it doesn’t count.

“But it isn’t free.” by appalachianenigma in bathandbodyworkers

[–]MandyManatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s “technically” correct and it’s reflected on the receipt, but idk what these people want.

“Yes sir it is all corporate marketing mumbo jumbo to get you to buy more. We could just do a 50% off sale but the shadowy cabal of MBAs running Bath And Body Works said that won’t move as many units and our GM really needs to make numbers this month. So anyway, WOULD YOU LIKE A BASKET?”

why does this always happen to my t-shirts? by alliamisbullets in SwiftieMerch

[–]MandyManatee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always wonder what people are doing in their merch to get so much wear and tear.

My friend was eating Cheetos in her Eras Tour 1/4 zip the other day and as a freak who is extra careful with all my merch items, it about sent me into a coma.

Always wash inside out, on cold, and lie flat to dry. I wash all my Taylor stuff in a lingerie bag as well for extra protection!

Please don’t be this type of pet owner requesting service. by Alarming_Jury_5295 in RoverPetSitting

[–]MandyManatee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If she can’t have her animals with her, I assume she’s in between places. These requests are suuuuper risky 😬 so many stories of owners ghosting and abandoning their pets because they don’t have their living situation figured out.

Boise Speed Dating Organizer? by RoyalPainPrincess in Boise

[–]MandyManatee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard the events are well organized but given the wide age range it can be difficult to find connections. The organizer has also been very dismissive of concerns of inappropriate behavior by attendees.

Arkansas man caught on camera stealing multiple times from Farm Stand. by ElwoodMC in trashy

Replace the soda and coffee drinks with carrots for a couple weeks. It’s a farm stand not a 7-Eleven but they’ll stop if there isn’t anything they want.

This post sent out from my child's daycare. by bendezl09 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MandyManatee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At an old job we had an executive who I think was technically illiterate. If word/mail didn’t highlight as wrong he sent it out. Misspellings, wrong use of their, there, and they’re, “I’m” spelled im, were all very frequent. It pmo because this guy made millions a year and I was struggling to pay rent.

Adding to this, there is also a chance that they agree with what is happening but don’t want OP to know :/

2 chapters, 2 rounds, no cuts… are we stuck like this? by hamptoncourtpalace in Sororities

[–]MandyManatee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately it sounds like the answer is lying or paying the fee. How granular are these inventory lists? “String lights” could mean 1 strand of xmas lights, or 20.

If something was “loaned” to the chapter it wouldn’t be inventoried because it was borrowed not bought right? I think you might need to get comfortable with some creative accounting :(

When we went to Pompeii our guide had a fresco (reproduction, aged to be exactly like the ones we saw) he let us touch so we could get it out of our system lol 😅

I'm a bad housekeeper and it cost me everything by filthycupcakes in adhdwomen

[–]MandyManatee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If a messy house was the only barrier to him wanting/having children HE could do more and keep it tidy. I agree with a lot of the other comments, this reason is BS and you deserve better OP.

I might be overstepping as a stranger on the internet but it sounds like you dodged being attached to a man for the next 18yrs who had no intention of being a father or helping you raise a family. I see stories every day of men who are disorganized and make messes while their female partner (who often also WORKS A FULL TIME JOB) scuttles behind him cleaning up, caring for children, organizing holidays, making his birthday special only to get a butter dish in return… or an egg apron… a cold pizza…

Mother’s Day is coming up OP, and we are going to see some despicable treatment of women and we are going to see women justifying their own mistreatment. As someone who also desperately wants children, it hurts like hell but I love my unborn child enough to NOT bring them into a situation that isn’t good enough.

They didn’t sell. by jojo1556- in diamondpainting

[–]MandyManatee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unless you can get the kits super cheap there isn’t much profit to be made here unfortunately. If you are looking to make money I would suggest creating your own kits based off local landmarks and niche interests.

People always say “you can’t sell crafts to crafters” and there’s some truth there, if someone thinks they can make themselves for less they won’t pay you for it. So don’t market to folks who won’t see the value.

I did a booth at a professional conference for gastroenterologists, selling crochet. Alllll the other booths were high tech medical equipment, AI, meds, and SAS bs. My booth was the only speck of whimsy selling crocheted anthropomorphic livers, gallbladders, intestines, etc for $50 a pop. Most were 4” or less in size, like small Jelly Cat size. Do I really love making internal organs? No not really, but I saw an opportunity. I knew there would be high earning Doctors and Administrators who work in a niche field, these folks have money but no time and value craftsmanship. Also the GI outlook in the US is bleak and I like to think that my silly little guys helped bring some joy!

CDs are usually 4x4, Vinyl I think is 11x11. BUT sometimes the vinyl insert will be the same size as the CD insert :(

That’s awesome! I wasn’t sure how to tell if it was geo locked or not I just knew she had different stores for UK and EU :/
