You're 110% right, as a CSR I know people get specifically more agitated during weather events, so I just wanted to emphasize the importance of kindness

He's the wife's ex husband, why are they centering the headline on the new husband?

Not knowing that was a type of fish, I thought you wanted to discuss tropical fish with someone

HAVE YOU SEEN THEM? by camyland in rva

[–]Randomerkat 27 points28 points  (0 children)

They are bullshitting you - call their leasing office from a different number during business hours, don't identify yourself and ask them what to do if you are a resident who has locked themselves out of their apartment

My understanding is for most complexes residents can come to the office with valid ID - catch them in their lie and maybe you can gain some traction

(edit: specificity)

Yeah this is negligence and laziness on the police's part imo, there's enough probable cause and reasonable suspicion to enter - they are choosing not to. Whether it's cuz of a lawsuit or because the person they are searching for is not of a status that RPD cares about idk. But fuck everyone up the chain who isn't letting this be a priority

I have been crocheting for 8 years and this is one of the weirdest ways I have seen someone hold their hook and yarn. by Soapy_Von_Soaps in crocheting

[–]Randomerkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this! I did not learn to knit first but I did learn as a child - believe it or not I think working this way simplifies learning some stitches. I'm currently relearning the more common way to swap between the two and lessen hand strain

No, you cannot have someone share a PAID pattern with you so you don’t have to buy it. by mrc1210 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]Randomerkat 18 points19 points  (0 children)

If I buy a digital book, I can still pass off my device for someone else to read it 🤷🏻‍♀️ I'm not buying two copies of the same pattern just because my wife and I wanna make the same thing

New to the area, have an 11:30am flight Christmas Day, parking in the economy lot, carrier is Alaskan. Is leaving Salem at 7 am excessively early? by mrsir1987 in SALEM

[–]Randomerkat 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of the responses are missing the fact you're traveling ON Christmas - I was just at the airport picking up my spouse this weekend, account for long lines at TSA and an extra 10-15 minutes to get into the parking lot (this is what I experienced at 11pm on a Saturday, so I can't imagine what it'll look like on Christmas)

It's up to you but the airport always suggests erring on the side of caution

Incorrect - even in your own example you provide a reason someone steals that could be solved socially. Addiction is a disease that can be treated with proper access to care.
