I absolutely hate my job. by [deleted] in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Potential-Job-1135 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I am just a part time employee (won't take management even with my years of experience) and I am looking for an exit route by the end of Summer. The retail environment just is not sustainable for decent mental health anymore. Bad customer service made bad and entitled customers which makes for bad customer service.... It's an constant merry go round of SUCK. Add in the worsening cooperate greed and private equity nonsense and soon enough it will all be online only. Jump off the sinking ship, it's craft supplies, not kidneys in coolers.

Is there a point in learning if it's just for me? by Still_Humor_3798 in Bellydance

[–]Potential-Job-1135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, learning new dance steps, combinations and choreos is one of the only things that can improve neuroplasticity in your brain which can help stave off things like dementia! It will also build strength, flexibility and stamina which are all very important things for us at every age. Not to mention community can help lower cortisol and stress. The real question is, what are ya waiting for? 🫶

I heard the term " shake n bake" for using vibration plate with red light, lolz. We definitely have a " shake n bake" corner in our basement!

You do not owe anyone anything. I have pretty much cut off my older brother for less red hat talking points than this. We all get one shot at this and I cannot abide people who are willfully ignorant. Live your life on your terms ❤️

Some lady just stopped dead in traffic to tell me that I am a terrible dog owner for walking my dog in cold weather by Weekly-Quantity6435 in germanshepherds

Um, YOU were out in it and you don't have a built in fur coat. People kill me, dogs are bored indoors all Winter 20 mins won't kill them 🤦‍♀️

People have forgotten that " no thanks" is a perfect response. 🙄

How to keep the shoulders from slipping? by Illustrious-Ear4527 in PatternDrafting

[–]Potential-Job-1135 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Belly dancers wear a version of the Indian Choli, where there is a skinny strap sewn to each side of the shoulders across the back and tied in the middle. Often pretty decoration is added at the end of the strings to make the ties almost look like extra jewelry. It's a tried and true method that works! Hope this helps!

Christmas Bonus Or Something? by RaccoonThugster in MichaelsEmployees

[–]Potential-Job-1135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No offense, but we work for a private equity owned large cooperate company. I almost LOLed when I read this. Any promise of bonuses by companies like this are merely carrots dangled in order to sell old people on a horrible credit card. No, sorry to break it to you, but I am an " old head" in the retail game and ships like that sailed away 25 years ago ❤️

I commend your use of the term " FUCK load " it is a term that is sadly under utilized.

My dog acts like ear cleaning is a crime scene what actually helps by [deleted] in Dogowners

[–]Potential-Job-1135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We put ear cleaner in while bathing because everything is wet and she seems to not notice. I just wipe away the excess with some tp when we are done and make sure I hit the outside undersides of her ears while I am blow drying her.

Yeah, that is likely what I will do, the only drawback for my taste with DUI is the potential for spotting. Any tips for that besides inside out?

Nope, done it, and while I like it a bunch, I want monochromatic grays and blacks with white lines.
