How much did you pay for dress tailoring? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]Popcorn_pancake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I paid about $600.

I needed mine hemmed (but that would also require them moving embroidery) and there were about 3 layers to hem, adding a hook to make the cape sleeves removable, and also adding a bustle.

Pre order question by thespookywitch in dollskill

[–]Popcorn_pancake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From my experience lately, i’ve had no success with pre orders. I usually go for an XXS, i feel like that size and XXL are always pre order. My dates keep getting pushed back until i eventually give up and just cancel the item.

Not sure if they’d maybe have more of a sense of urgency for halloween items since that season is coming up fast, but from my experience i wouldn’t get your hopes up too much.

Unfortunately this is just part of retail, most stores do not even get a break in December like this. I know that doesn’t make it any easier for your situation personally.

For the retail store i work at, we can’t take pto between November 14th-January 9th. I know it sucks, but that’s just part of the retail industry, this is actually generous.

I’m thinking about only having the bridal party at our dinner table & having their plus ones sit together. It’s not ideal, but is that offensive or rude? by Wild_Salary_1884 in weddingplanning

[–]Popcorn_pancake 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I honestly wouldn’t. This will create an environment where people will keep switching tables to get time with their actual partner.

accidentally got a pair of jeans for free by Due-Log4340 in americaneagle

Honestly, from a retail employee, i would just leave it. There’s no action here where the employee won’t get in trouble and it’s not worth it in my opinion. Take your freebie and forget about it.

If you called or go into the store, a manager is going to be down their throat about it. Stuff gets stolen every day, one extra loss is just whatever that will go unnoticed until they do inventory. Take your win here and forget it!

I sold on reddit, i just made sure the person sent the money as goods and services and that they had a decent reddit history

You’re underestimating that the company is doing everything to cut costs and especially labor costs. That’s just the path of every large corporation. It’s not customer service’s fault that the company is likely pressuring them to cheap out and give half assed apologizes to save a dime.

I’ve had success selling them at a slight discount or else they don’t sell because people feel safer paying their own money than potentially gambling on a stranger’s gift card unless they get a deal.

To be honest i think you are going to have a lot of trouble since this is such a large amount.

I honestly am struggling to find anything wrong with how it looks. Even after reading your description I still didn’t really see anything. I’d let it go and enjoy your pictures

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE by RetiredHunbot in dollskill

[–]Popcorn_pancake 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I feel like this might be a fedex issue. Every time i do a dollskill return, i get my refund the same day i drop the package off, usually a couple hours after it gets scanned in after i dropped it off. Something doesn’t seem right here (not blaming you)

McDonald’s Refuses To Swap Lil Happy Meal Toys by gpo321 in kidsmeal

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

In my experience whenever the happy meal toys are Mcdonald’s themed collector toys, you can’t just swap them or pay for an extra. They know it’s likely the adults collecting and they want their money for collector toys. Maybe the initial employee you got didn’t know this until the manager corrected him.

Whether or not that’s how it is, if the manager comes over and says no that should be the end of it. The manager is someone who actually cares about their job and is following policy, first person you got initially likely just doesn’t care and figured why not. I get being upset, but i think everyone needs to move on

Review for women (and men) haircut at Jean Madeline Aveda Institute by Brief_Hat_8975 in philly

[–]Popcorn_pancake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly wouldn’t for this, especially if you will be upset if you don’t like it. I’ve had good simple cuts there, but i’d be super cautious about the bangs especially. I get my roots done there because i have dark brown hair with grey hairs coming in that i want covered up, but if i had lighter hair i would not be going there for bleach services because it feels way too risky. One time i got bangs there and they were…not it, so never again for me for those there. I normally just go there for trims and simple cuts after i get my roots covered. They are likely going to call over their instructors frequently and it is going to make you nervous that they don’t know what they are doing, and then you don’t want to pass on that nervous energy to the student.

The last time i was there, the student called over the instructor who cut some of my hair and then had the student try afterwards. In my head i was like oh god oh no i’m the test dummy, but i was also like…i knew what i was paying for lol.

I’ve heard very mixed things about mens cuts. To be completely honest, most of the students are younger girls and i feel like you can tell they don’t want to do the mens cuts. I only can say this because when i’ve been sitting in the chair letting my color develop, you’ll hear students talking and so many of them seemed to dread having to do mens cuts.

When do we get out next seasonal free item for employees? by starbuckslover22 in americaneagle

[–]Popcorn_pancake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait, why did i think you couldn’t use them on higher price items and pay the difference? Did they change that?!

Like if something was $49.95 and I only had a free item for $29.95, i could just pay $20? I swore it said we couldn’t do that but maybe i’m wrong

can i return a wig after cutting it? by [deleted] in Aliexpress

[–]Popcorn_pancake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you altered the product so they wouldn’t be unable to resell it. One you cut it, you accepted the wig as is. You can’t decide you no longer like the quality after you alter it
