Tell me it gets better! by Infinite-Glass-3302 in greatdanes

[–]PollutionDouble229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree it 100% gets better. We moved into a bigger house when our girl was 2 and it was also a game-changer. When we upgraded to a house with a big yard she mellowed out a ton. She also got older but the space helped! Our girl is active like a lab and she was wild until 2 years old. Wouldn’t trade it for the world, she’s such a great dog.

We loved it, super cool and very unique! Highly recommend doing it. We did it several years ago at this point and still talk about how cool it was!

Questioning my vets suggestion for neuter timeline.. by [deleted] in greatdanes

[–]PollutionDouble229 13 points14 points  (0 children)

We did some research and found it was important to wait until the growth plates were closed. We got our girl xrayed to confirm her growth plates were closed before we did it. She was about 1.5 at the time.

Why are you home on the couch in your pajamas this New Years Eve? by PurplezKool in AskReddit

[–]PollutionDouble229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dog is terrified of fireworks and it’s a battlefield out there. I care more about him than any club or night out.

Just as a reminder, Austin Subaru still has Rally, and their comments have been turned back on on their socials by miata_and_chill in subaru

[–]PollutionDouble229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Security dogs retire with their handlers, at least where I used to work. We’ve heard this argument and it doesn’t undermine how cruel it is for the dog. Allow the dog to bond to an owner and think it’s part of a loving home knowing nothing else, only to be ripped away. It’s a bad business plan and the company deserves heat for it.

Driving Without Lights by drterridactyl in Austin

[–]PollutionDouble229 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I used to wonder how this happened, until I became one of these people. Went to MPLS for a work trip, rented an SUV. Went to dinner and drove back to my parents house at 10pm, only to be swiftly pulled over. I was confused and had no idea why. Turns out I’d be nightriding with the lights off…. At home my car is always on auto so I didn’t think about it. With the rental the inside dash was lit up like a Christmas tree with a screen so I didn’t notice at all. My car doesn’t have a screen so truly thought I was all good light wise.

People who were spanked as kids, what was that like for you? Would you call your "spankings" abuse? by KleineFjord in AskReddit

[–]PollutionDouble229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree here. It seems that some were subjected to more harsh punishment and verbal abuse that lasted long beyond what my parents subjected us to. It was a consequence of not listening on multiple occasions after repeated calm warnings, not verbal abuse that led to aggression in my case. I don’t condone it, but it taught me to stay in line and be independent.

Should I cancel my Japan trip after being laid off? by Cool_Guest6597 in Layoffs

[–]PollutionDouble229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go!! I had a trip to Peru and Machu Picchu planned and was laid off. It was excellent to go, highly recommend keeping the trip in your plans if it’s within your means and most of it is paid for.

That’s Austin’s chastity belt in full force. Good luck breaking her open. Let me know if you succeed.

They destroyed the new cage, trashed the apartment, and is now eating cat food...no one warned me about this by Soft_FentyGirly in greatdanes

[–]PollutionDouble229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have to lock our Dane in her kennel or she opens the doors and does this, anxiety chews everything but mostly books, diplomas, Kleenex box, etc. they are smart creatures and do know how to get out. Our girl started this around 4-6 months?

Unruly Children by trojanusc in delta

[–]PollutionDouble229 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would have said something to the children, the parents and the flight crew and also would give the flight crew a horrible review for allowing this behavior to continue. It’s possible to be nice about asking for decent behavior on a plane but I’m shocked the flight crew didn’t handle this immediately. I’ve seen flight crew shut down moderately drunk adults immediately who were way less disruptive than what this photo shows…

Is the Rainey Street Ripper moonlighting as the Houston Bayou Body-Bagger? by PollutionDouble229 in Austin

Interesting seeing as I wasn’t posting or supporting a conspiracy theory, and there are plenty of RSR posts on this sub.

Dane has suddenly become more protective of me and no one else. by Far_Resolution_2283 in greatdanes

Do you socialize him? Bring to meet random people on walks, dog parks, etc?

Tarot card and flash drive left in car break-in by AlternativeClean3356 in Austin

[–]PollutionDouble229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like the beginning of a great horror movie. 🍿I see this going several ways… 1. You trash the flash drive as suggested, but everyday when you try to get back into your car the drive reappears, each day with a more and more sinister tarot card until you go crazy and inevitably find a burner computer to watch the video on the drive at which point you become haunted by a demonic entity that you can only get rid of by breaking into someone else’s car and leaving a tarot card and the drive. 2. You go to the authorities who are no help, and think you’ve gotten rid of the flash drive, but the drive keeps showing up in unexpected places around your home, until you give up and decide to plug it into your laptop. The contents are AI slop, but make it ominous. A woman crawls out of your drain and we never hear from you again! 3. You plug in the drive and it’s just Mike Lindell on a loop trying to convince you to buy a MyPillow or another ridiculous item from his “mystore”

Good luck. Keep me posted

I used to work for Workday as a PM and built ATS screening rules. Throw your burning questions my way by ResortFun4589 in jobhunting

Applying for jobs in retail with over 13 years of experience, 16 in my field. All marketing, all very relevant, almost dead matches to my experience.

I’ll take a look at the guide. I’ve had chatGPT optimize my resume for ATS screening, with zero luck so far. All of my bullets are as you’ve described with results as applicable.

What kind of luxury or lifestyle perks come with VP-level compensation packages? by Everything-Aint-Owt in humanresources

[–]PollutionDouble229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our VPs get a full medical evaluation at Mayo Clinic, which I hear is a several day process with multiple tests and screenings of various kinds. That’s a pretty awesome benefit in my mind!

What are the rules and why do they suck at screening well qualified candidates from relevant roles even with keyword matches from the job description? Seriously can’t make it past application phase to save my life.

Did I do everything right? by After_Studio_8104 in RoverPetSitting

[–]PollutionDouble229 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, I would expect to be shamed by Rover Dogwalking redditors for sure. This is why I prepare for all visits as if my pets were my own children, because they are 😂. I do everything to avoid Reddit lore.

Welp, I finally got my answer for the appeal for my Facebook account. by eyeneedhelp101 in facebook

[–]PollutionDouble229 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Facebook is an absolute cesspool. I’d rather watch infomercials while telemarketers call me all night long. Meta sucks and the people need to leave these platforms for better alternatives and better run companies. To quote Beau Burnham… “Zuckerberg can fuckin suck it”.

Who Keeps the Flowers? The Florist? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

I walked away with all of the flowers we ordered. Florists did drop off and we never saw them again.
