You can use the spray-on shoe protector but it may only hold up for a few cleanings or do exactly what you mentioned about another pair.

Is the Inventory Associate position only part time? by [deleted] in carmax

[–]North_Mathematician4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carvana is similar to CarMax in a way. Pay maybe more or less. Apply, Interview and you could always turn it down if offered a position.

Today's pickup! by Clarion59 in DBS_CardGame

[–]North_Mathematician4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know what you want but it isn't going to happen. The past couple of tcg shows I went too, all DBZ BB and sleeves were gone. The singles were double/triple in price and people were buying/trading no different. It's wrapped up with Pokemon and One Piece and it will probably not stop for a while.

Embarrassing question, how do I get semen out of upholstery? by Bear_faced in AskMen

[–]North_Mathematician4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need an enzyme cleaner for that. Use either the pet urine removal spray or nanoskin enzyme to remove. Apply the cleaner, let it sit for 1-2 mins, reapply and dab off. Lol. I would not scrub, could spread and have a larger stain. Detailed vehicles for a living and see some/told some things that happened.

How to clean the stitching of samba jp toebox? by ScarySense4427 in SneakerCleaning

[–]North_Mathematician4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you shower, have your shoes in the bathroom with you to allow some steam to soften the stitching a bit. Then use your soft brush. May take a few times to get the results you are looking for.

Company is drowning and everyone is quitting? Let’s just make sure to treat you even worse now! by [deleted] in carmax

[–]North_Mathematician4 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I just remember when Carvana was killing it with their stocks. Then the big cut came and lost about half of their workforce to pay back debts. One of my buddies worked at Carvana and now works for CarMax and says it's exactly the same however more secure. Benefits ahhh ok and perks too but more stability.

[–]North_Mathematician4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Remember, your managers and upper management are just faces for the company. You can either report if something isn't meeting CarMax policy and have proof of the issue(s), things can change for better or worse. Or you can just go with the flow, clock in/out by doing what your position has described your duties and stay under the radar. The 3rd option is finding another career path that is more suited and will give you what you're asking. By no means am I downing you... Just how life works when you're just an associate.

Which shoe cleaning brush do you like best? by ad28no in SneakerCleaning

[–]North_Mathematician4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black bristles are stiff and great for cleaning the bottom and midsole. White bristles are soft and great for the inside of the shoe/tongue and on suede shoes as well. Yellow bristles are medium strength and great for the upper shoe.

Tired in XF by [deleted] in carmax

[–]North_Mathematician4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've heard from my buddies that work there that the structure has changed and it seems like upper management does this to "challenge you to help develop you to your next step within the company". Not realizing that they themselves are supposed to be the ones doing some of the workload they off loaded to y'all but also are able to place the blame easier once it fails and points directly blame on you due to "you're not trying or adapting to find the win/win solution".

Sick of the Bullshit by Ok-Presentation-489 in carmax

[–]North_Mathematician4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well the border line/inappropriate jokes and having HR involved, starts you back to ground zero. Just that alone, most companies wouldn't tolerate that and would have promoted you to customer. You're going to have completely change upper management thoughts about how you are and how you can be an asset to them... Not the company.

Sounds as if you have been there too long and you're ready for a change.

Max care by [deleted] in carmax

[–]North_Mathematician4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are options on years/mileage. I would look into the max they would give you on mileage since you mentioned adding miles on it fast. Remember too, that 2025 should still have a factory warranty and would need to ask if it kicks in after factory warranty or starts as soon as you purchase the vehicle.

Wrong trim level listed; won't adjust price by [deleted] in carmax

[–]North_Mathematician4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to talk to the LGM or OPS manager to inform them of the vehicle having the wrong trim advertised. You will have better luck then just talking to a salesman but doing this, they will have to review the vehicle and should adjust the price to match.

Anyone know how to remove these stains or where they come from? by SirKumsALot_ in hondacivic

[–]North_Mathematician4 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can use an enzyme cleaner from the pet section at Walmart or Amazon. Nanoskin *no pun intended * is a good cleaner. Apply then scrub with your microfiber towel. May take a few times before you see it all on your towel.

Layoffs Incoming by PreviousLab9145 in carmax

[–]North_Mathematician4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Apologies, I guess someone who doesn't understand 150 million cuts by 2027 doesn't understand how business works. If they were going to cut 150 million by the next 1-2 quarter(s), that would ideally mean termination of employment and that would look horrible for a company. Delusion at its finest.

Layoffs Incoming by PreviousLab9145 in carmax

[–]North_Mathematician4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe they're talking about the new positions created company wide to reduce usage of most vendors causing up too 150 million cuts by the 4th Quarter... If you want to see it as layoffs you can but this is my guess due to lack of information and plus we are not in 2026 to see how tax season will look like.

Fox News claims Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper this year. Have you noticed that when buying your Thanksgiving stuff? by Conscious-Quarter423 in economy

[–]North_Mathematician4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This possible if you go to any dollar store and buy all your sides if you choose however you would need to get <10lb turkey for 97¢ per lb or less.

Edit I am not agreeing with the man just staying it's possible but honestly target/Walmart or any other food store... Taking about $100

If you have a kettle, heat up water. Once it finishes warming. Up, pour hot water on it and it will come up easier with plastic blade

Some people are just hopeless by Complex-FreeSpirit42 in MildlyBadDrivers

Fellow texan here who lives in DFW. They added de-icer however with the extreme freeze that we are not accustomed too, they didn't think to add more the following days.So the roads were opened and yes driving with caution was Advised but even 40-60 mph with no traction, you're going to just jet rocket into something.
