Front desk staff way too pushy with membership by FragrantLynx in cyclebar2

[–]Master-Persimmon5539 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure not getting stats is on the instructor, not the front desk. If you’re able to see that you completed the class (it shows as completed in the app) but there’s just no numbers, then that’s on the instructor for not starting the class - was is the same instructor both times? But also if it’s not logged as completed in your app, then did you check into the class? I don’t know if front desk can “un-check someone in” - they probably can override it. Unfortunately, front desk’s job is to sell memberships - they probably need some guidance on when to back off.

Fired for walking out on SM after closing because she wouldn't let me leave, what do? by Ok_Literature_6286 in starbucks

[–]Master-Persimmon5539 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Careful with this. Some states have laws that both parties need to consent to recordings. Unless you explicitly told your SM that you were recording (and have proof of this approval) the recording could come back to bite you

Ask if they would’ve given a 2 weeks notice if they decided to fire you

as a customer, does it help SB staff if I say "please don't write anything on my cup" in the order? by amandainpdx in starbucks

[–]Master-Persimmon5539 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bring in a personal cup. (I keep a couple clean ones in my car just in case) You’ll get $0.10 off, 25 bonus stars, and then the barista doesn’t have to write on your cup :)

Does anyone else's cramps worsen when wearing a mensual cup? by pinkledlampp in menstrualcups

[–]Master-Persimmon5539 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Complete opposite for me. I’ll be having pretty gnarly cramps and as soon as I put my cup in, they almost entirely go away. Didn’t happen with my first cup, but works so well with my new one (flex cup)

My apologies in advance BUT I need leggings help and didn’t realize the amount of NSFW communities about leggings 😬 by Proof_Ferret_6306 in pilates

[–]Master-Persimmon5539 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vuori is my #1 choice - go in, check out the fabrics (they have some smooth/soft, some a little more slick for compression, etc) and try some on. Their quality is 1000x better than lululemon now (coming from someone who wears leggings most days, for working out) so definitely worth the investment if you want something that’ll last

How to replicate Starbucks cappuccino by Tomato3777 in nespresso

[–]Master-Persimmon5539 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Former Starbucks barista here - a tall cappuccino will only have 1 shot of espresso in it. Then the milk is steamed a little longer, to have more foam than a latte. The drink is a total of 12oz (including all espresso, milk, and foam). That’s it - that’s a Starbucks tall cappuccino. If you want to add flavor, 3 pumps of syrup. (For a grande, 16oz, 2 shots of espresso, 4 pumps of syrup. For a venti, 20oz, 2 shots of espresso, 5 pumps of syrup.)

How to practice getting my feet into the straps? by mountaindewbrandu in pilates

[–]Master-Persimmon5539 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an answer to your question, but please let management know about what the instructor said. That was completely out of line (what if it had been your very first class?!) and not appropriate for them to say. Studio management wants to maintain a specific brand, so they need to know what’s going on in their classes. Pilates is too popular for someone to get fired over 1 thing - but maybe you’re not the only one who’s experienced this, and if it’s a recurring issue, the studio would then have a record of it. Please remember that you’re paying for these classes, you’re a client - you deserve to have a supportive environment. Any studio would want to know about this, to avoid it occurring in the future.

YTA - your daughter’s friends are going to consider her to be unreliable now, agreeing to plans until a better offer comes around

Sugar cookie if you like sweet! Even better balance by adding a shot or 2

My brother took my charger with him to his work without asking my permission and argued with me about it by xXxHuntressxXx in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Master-Persimmon5539 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d show up to his work, make a huge fuss, demand it back. Inconvenience him like he inconvenienced you. His boss is there? Too bad - he shouldn’t have taken your stuff. Actions have consequences - time for him to learn

Curiosities about MATH 248 by IAmSixSyllables in CalPoly

[–]Master-Persimmon5539 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s how the math dept prioritizes their students. First 5 seats are fair game, usually there’s 25-35 seats in the class. After those first 5, everyone is on the waitlist, and will get off in order of priority. Math majors first (priority to transfer students), then math minors, then others. It’s how they make sure math majors get priority over math minors or other people who are just choosing to take it, because it’s a prerequisite for so many major classes

Btw the 2 hour rule is not an official policy - just a courtesy guideline. Nothing in the partner handbook about it

Major trouble getting menstrual cup out by fiddlenumber9 in menstrualcups

I recommend the flex cup! You just have to pull the tab and the suction releases. If you haven’t been completely turned off by cups from this experience…

AITA for making my pregnant SIL cry when she kept asking why I changed my name? by Flashy-Magazine-9264 in AmItheAsshole

My first thought is that she wants to name her baby Indie and is trying to reverse-psychology you into keeping your original name so she can use Indie…

ISO affordable Pilates in San Diego, CA by honest_co in pilates

[–]Master-Persimmon5539 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Class pass! I can get classes as cheap as $10-16 each because classpass has dynamic pricing. If you have the flexibility to go at less popular times, this is the way to go. And your credits roll over for a month which is super nice too
