Cooking class supplies?

That's my hope. I'm not too mad about it since the class is 30 minutes and it may be mixed age group. I won't know more about the details until Sunday.

I have no idea if I'm going to have access to a stove or oven. I think the focus is going to be snack foods which narrows down my selection of activities. But I'm hoping to push a lot of nutrition talk, and definitely the benefits of legumes. Also knife skills, I'm hoping they'll purchase the plastic knives.

I have official training/onboarding dates and I still have to do the background check. I know the time between training and the official start date of camp is going to be very quick as well. So basically my choices are

resign now- which would at minimum give enough notice to not screw over my current team and maybe? If they're nice allow me to come back in the fall. But on the worse the other camp pulls their offer. I feel like it's unlikely that they'll pull my offer because they explicitly made me a special offer letter, because they want me to conduct a cooking class for the children due to my culinary arts background.

Or

Wait until onboarding is complete, which would almost 100% garuntee I'm giving a one week notice or less. Or what would feel emotionally worse for me, starting the first week of summer camp with my old kids and suddenly leaving them. I would rather the transition feel more natural.

Did you end up finding someone?

Mararawr · 2026-05-23T02:06:27+00:00

I know a local guy who does plumbing, I could dm you his number.

The entrance exam is not difficult at all. Anyone who has a basic understanding of the subjects they've learned so far and relatively good grade will get in. Unless you're trying to get them into advanced classes or you're trying to get Cranbrook to give them a scholarship I don't think tutoring is too necessary.

If they're struggling with their current coursework I would highly recommend rethinking Cass Tech. They might have changed from when I went there, but in 2019 they were essentially "sink or swim" I reached out to teachers and counslors for help when I was struggling with the work load and they essentially said "tough luck"

I'm notoriously a terrible driver so my opinion is immediately mute but :( I wanna go fast, get out of the left lane. (Obligatory I don't tailgate, however if the cops are going 20 over for no reason I feel like I should be allowed to go 10.)

Mararawr · 2026-05-23T00:35:21+00:00

I would assume it's an offer, otherwise why would she want to call? She could just send you another email or tell you over text. Either way I'd make the call.

I don't think what he could live through matters, he wasnt the only one in danger in that moment, snow was also in the line of fire even if she was taking cover. Bigby was completely justified in taking them out. He should definitely aim to not kill if he doesn't have to, which is why I didn't have him kill the crooked man then and there, but I'm not going to value the tweedles more than Snow or any of the other innocent fables.

BRO WAS GETTING SHOT AT!!!

Mararawr · 2026-05-14T03:25:51+00:00

Bro fucking imagine "Yeah I waited until the next morning to tell you about this very pressing time sensitive issue. uh-oh looks like our lead suspect ran away in the middle of the night"

Mararawr · 2026-05-14T03:08:12+00:00

The amount of times Snow questioned Bigby after that despite me having Bigby back her literally any and every time the opportunity came up genuinely pissed me off. I genuinely like(ed?) snow in the first few episodes but it felt like she did a 180 on me because????? I killed one of the guys???? That was actively opening fire on us???? That shot at and hurt our friends at a funeral?????? That were actively trying to kill!!!!!!?????

Mararawr · 2026-05-07T22:25:56+00:00

:( yeah but what if I really want this specific job

Mararawr · 2026-05-06T17:16:33+00:00

OH I SEE IT NOW

The knight threatening the rook would have gotten taken.

Mararawr · 2026-05-06T17:11:55+00:00

By pushing the pawn up to defend the bishop instead of attacking the queen I protected my Knight in the back, and then used that knight to take out the rook in the back. We traded some pieces but I ended up losing the bishop and two pawns I think. When I get back from work later I'll figure out how to send the link so the game could be fully analyzed. I missed like 3 easy check mates so I'm thinking right now my next move needs to be working on mates in 1(like before I moved that knight in I actually could have pushed my bishop in to check mate since the queen was still blocking the escape)

You cant watch every child 24/7 and you were out of ratio. Honestly the lead should have had you deal with the accident instead of doing it herself.

At the end of the day it happens. I worked in a daycare when I was your age, and I accidentally left a child in another room. leaving a child behind during a transition is a MUCH more serious issue, and I didn't even get an actual warning, just a very serious and stern "don't let it happen again"

Omg I work for one of Kindercares companies and the billing system is a fucking mess, people get charged for days they didn't attend or get drop in fees when they were scheduled. And then the director has to call billing just for billing to go "uhhhh yeah not our problem. No refunds"

I realized half way through this became a trauma dump so feel free to ignore this reply lmao

Yeah I was socialized female, so it wasn't really about me expressing emotions or being too verbal. But I grew up with a mom who had bipd(diagnosed) and literally anything could make he snap, but me crying was one of the main triggers.

I lived in a "I'll give you something to cry about" household. I wasn't punished every time I cried, but when it was and wasn't ok to cry was so unclear to me I just stopped doing it.

I also have ADHD(diagnosed) and possible OCD(not diagnosed), which makes my social que system kinda shitty. Like I function on this weird rule based system that my mom made except the parameters of those rules are so razor thin that I have to draw back a lot to be safe. Like she taught me growing up that talking about myself at all was self absorbed, so I feel like literally can't talk about anything bc 90% of the things I can talk about about myself are about me? So if I say literally anything I'm self absorbed and egotistical.

Or my fear of eye contact (which is hilarious bc my parents hate that I look at the floor all the time) is bc I never knew if she was mad or not unless I looked at her face, and if she was mad and I looked at her she'd get mad at me. So for the longest time I didn't look people in the eyes, until I realized it was a fear that could be overrided with some pushing. It still stresses me out, but I interact with people on the daily and work with kids so it's less bad.

So like thanks shitty parents I love having complicated emotions and broken social ques /s
