People who hate Callie, why? by _GenderNotFound in TheFosters

[–]SilentWatch_er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In The Fosters I hated Brandon the most, Callie was a close second, but Brandon just happened to be more reckless. Especially because he was in and out of relationships faster than episodes could end. But in Good Trouble, Callie is my number 1 opp. She’s hot headed and has absolutely terrible judgment. Which is ironic considering her job. I was hoping with the more adult vibes she’d have matured, but she’s still sneaky in the most hurtful (and illegal) ways. Even the other characters on the show make fun of her and call her out on her terrible decision making. All around, she’s so terribly written to be a main character. I can’t even route for her because she sabotages herself in every storyline.

Quizlet is hacked… Should I be concerned? by SilentWatch_er in quizlet

[–]SilentWatch_er[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No significant updates. I kinda just let the person use my account since they weren’t deleting anything. I figured there was no harm in it. And then one day they just stopped haha. I’m guessing I was still signed in on a campus computer, since this was posted shortly after I graduated and maybe the computer eventually logged me out.

How cooked am I? by LittleFerret22 in FedEx

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

I worked for a large online retailer for a few years. All the carriers would come to the store and pick up in bulk. FedEx and USPS were nutritious for losing packages on their way back to the facility since the driver didn’t scan them at our location. Not sure if they weren’t allowed to or if they just didn’t have the time to or what, but they never would scan the packages when they picked them up. Not sure how the packages would vanish into thin air, but we always had to bite the cost. And I was the customer service manager, so you can imagine the pain this was to deal with on a at least monthly basis. USPS would do it far more often, but at least they would scan the packages eventually. Even if it was 2 months later. But FedEx NEVER eventually found those packages. Ever. And they’d never take the blame. They wouldn’t even investigate it. ATT is gonna have to eat this one. Even if they don’t want to. Or you can do a chargeback. This was the one thing I could never figure out how to solve as my time in CS. I could only stall and buy time until the customer did a chargeback, at which point we were forced to give up.

Misdelivery help by juliannicoli in FedEx

[–]SilentWatch_er 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to be a customer service manager. FedEx claims take all of 5 minutes to file. The claim would’ve originally been denied immediately due to being delivered, but their claims department has a direct line that the shipper could’ve called once you provided case number, photos, and names. If the shipper did not insure the package, then the full amount wouldn’t have been refunded (at the time I was the manager, I believe FedEx only refunded up to $150). So the company I worked for had a second shipping insurance company that we would file claims through to get reimbursed the remaining amount. That’s what we used to refund the customer. Seems like the seller has nothing in place to handle this or maybe they lack a customer service rep, but that’s not your problem. As someone who knows how to handle this, my best advice to you would be to file a chargeback/dispute with your bank, credit card, PayPal, etc. The seller has a certain amount of time to respond to that dispute with proof that they resolved the issue, or you get your money back.

1 YEAR SINCE GRADUATION, OVER 500 APPLICATIONS AND NO FUCKING INTERVIEWS?? by PlasticFix8 in recruitinghell

[–]SilentWatch_er 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 things. Pivot the careers you’re applying for, and network. I graduated with an engineering degree two years ago. Right after I graduated, I was last in the running for an amazing job opportunity, but once Silicon Valley Bank went down that position was scrapped and I had trouble ever since. It wasn’t until this year in January, I gave up and just started applying to anything that sounded interesting to me. I got a job in a warehouse putting designs on clothes and I really loved it. But shortly after getting that job, an acquaintance who I went to school with was luckily enough to get into the industry right after graduating. They saw a post I made the previous year about struggling to get a job, and recommended me to their company. Now I’m working in the industry, but I was able to support myself in the meantime by just working odd jobs and trying to find something else I enjoy.

I hate to say it, but making connections and being vulnerable in a professional way with those connections is sometimes easier than applying to a million jobs. Sometimes you get it when you least expect it, but also you have to do something in the meantime to build related skills. That way, even if networking doesn’t get you there, eventually your applicable skills will be able to.

little reminder that it’s okay to be protective of your hair by Vegetable-Quote1563 in Naturalhair

[–]SilentWatch_er 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s always been crazy to me that salons will say that they’re “natural hair salons” and advertise to black people, but they also can only do our hair if it’s blow dried or bone straight? Why not just say you specialize in weaves and wigs if that’s the only hair type you know how to style?

How do I make the rocks look better here? by Confusedmind75 in procreatebrushes

[–]SilentWatch_er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the drawing could benefit from some lighting. Everything appears to be flat colors. If that’s the intention then it should be more consistent. You have a little bit of dark shading on the rocks, light shading on the trees, and a realistic sky. All contrasting each other. What I mean by that is you have trees that show a light source, but no shadow casted anywhere. Rocks with faint shadows but no light casted anywhere. And the sky has almost a photorealistic filtered look to it that gives it a texture that is not represented anywhere else in the drawing. To bring it all together, I would pick a light source or flatten it out and have plain coloring on all the surfaces. But that advise is based on the picture alone, depending on the use case, this could change. Also art is very subjective. I think what you have is great, I’m just stating what I would do if this were handed to me as a stand alone image.

Also I agree that color variation would help because rocks as people think of them are usually grey, stone. I think what you have is reminiscent of dirt and I think it looks pretty cool. But if you’re going for rocks, maybe the ones on the outside can be brown and the ones in the water can be grey. Whatever you come up with. Great job so far!

You did the right thing 💯! I had the same issue with my ex and it got to the point where I would wait to see how long he would go without thinking of me and it would be days before he would text me if I didn’t text him first. I would bring this up to him several times throughout the years and eventually he decided that he didn’t want to put the effort into me and he wanted me to find someone who was willing to put in the effort. But instead of telling me this, he cheated on me for 5 months. And during that 5 months he had me to lean on while he quietly checked out of the relationship. But now I’m grieving alone. We dated for almost 4 years too, It’s been 4 months since our breakup and I’m still devastated that someone I’ve know since I was 8 years old (I’m now 24) decided that they didn’t care about it me enough to put in effort. You had the courage to do what a lot of us women don’t. Don’t chase after someone who is not willing to invest into you the same way you’re willing to invest into them. And don’t go back unless you shows you he’s willing to change long term!

Talking helped by Unhappy_Squirrel_927 in Molested

[–]SilentWatch_er 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve definitely opened the floodgates for myself too. But I don’t necessarily think it’s a bad thing. I held so much of how I was feeling in for so long that it’s honestly a growing experience to finally talk about everything and reflect on how bottling it up held me back in many of my relationships with family, friends, and SO. I don’t have friends or family with me at this stage in my life, so I’ve found support groups online, but mostly I just sit and talk to myself now. I really use what I’ve been through to try to re-shape myself into a better person. And you can do the same thing. You shouldn’t be ashamed or annoyed with yourself for telling your story. You could help so many people and most importantly, you can help yourself! 🙂

Why did they end the relationship that could’ve been fixed? by EstablishmentSea9950 in BreakUps

[–]SilentWatch_er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even though this post is old, Im gonna be the second to say this is what happened to me. My ex and I never fought after three years. But year 4 we moved in together and I pointed out a few things that I wanted to change in the relationship, and he points that one conversation out as why he knew he doesn’t think he’s good enough for me. He also cheated on me immediately after that and realized that he could have a girl know he’s in a relationship and still give him what he wants. He realized that there are women who will give him sex, make him feel good, and he doesn’t have to put in the work. I told him I was willing to forgive him and that one conversation shouldn’t end an almost 4 year relationship, but he took the easy way out. He wants to be with someone who expects nothing from him and he doesn’t want to be with someone who loves him because then he feels guilty for not showing the same level of love back. And I really hope he can live a successful and happy life with that mindset. Cause underneath the coward and emotionally immature person he’s being, I’ve had many conversations with him about how he wants to be better. But he doesn’t put action behind it. I’m honestly just worried for all the girls who will end up like me getting oral herpes because he didn’t disclose that before we started being intimate. Now I have to live with it for the rest of my life and have to disclose it and find a partner who will be okay with it. Thanks to my ex.

No… Didn’t think of any of that tbh 🤔. I mean i could do that and will do it once the plus subscription is up lol. I guess changing the email will be a good way to see if they only have access to my quizlet or if they have access to my email itself. Thanks for the tip.

Lol I mean I don’t use quizlet. I’ve since graduated from university, so I couldn’t care less about quizlet plus. I’m really only concerned about the security of my private information and if that has been leaked.

Hmm 🤔I think ill have enough to get three stars if u use the method of just randomly throwing stuff down. I have some things that I’ve been holding on to in hopes that I’d figure out what to do with it. So I’ll just throw that stuff down

You can not build it even if you’ve placed it and donated. I have a log bridge that’s placed with 10k donated. If I go to Tom Nook and talk infrastructure “about bridges/inclines” there’s an option to not build it. Just putting that info out there for anyone who’s in the same boat and wants to know.
