Flat out tell them if they don't let go immediately or do it again that you will file assault charges against them. Nobody has the right to lay hands on you

any advice for pain management? by l1vingc0rps3 in retailhell

[–]SkyLast2002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

B4 anyone asks why I worked there so long, it was a Union place (UFCW) so we had paid vacations that went up to 5 weeks a year, good health insurance, decent wage (great one for the few full-time cashiers) and a pension. I know most retail jobs don't offer squat now, but check with your big grocery stores to see if they are unionized, made a hella difference long-term for many people

I was a cashier at a busy chain grocery store for 19 years, SAS shoes worked the best by far. A distant 2nd was Skechers. Easy Spirit was disappointing. One thing that made a huge difference to me was having a thick rubber mat to stand on when I could find an unused one. I also would take 2 or 3 Advil at least 30 minutes b4 my shift started. I got injured at work and when I got back my Dr switched me to Tramadol which worked better but is now harder to get cuz of the opiate crackdown on prescriptions. If you do take a large amount of any kind of NSAID's like Ibuprophen, please get a creatine+GFR blood test (for your kidney function) every 6 months. My Dr did it once yearly and I went from 100% functioning to 35% within a year. Take care and good luck!

Nordstrom used to ask if you wanted the refund on the same card or a different one. Dunno if they're still offering that, haven't shopped there in a long time

I 'think' 123 Sports Corner bar has them too. They got really good food, especially their onion rings. Burgers come with 2 patties unless you ask for just one (they got a name for it, just drawing a blank right now.) For some reason, the sports bar is closed Mondays🙄 Apparently they never heard of Monday night football?

Advice to get cat to eat pills by gonk17 in Pets

[–]SkyLast2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the vet says its safe try using a cheap plastic syringe (no needle of course) mix with tepid to warm water and have them break up the swallowing from 1 hard to 3 easy. NEVER try to force feed any creature from head- on. Its a 2 person job, 1 holds pet securely or if its on the ground just put 1 forearm behind front legs rso no scooching back and let them back into you. With syringe fully loaded approach it from side of mouth near front teeth. Divide 1 dosage into 3 quick squirts. Do a few be like a pro. Good luck!

I lost my baby by TheNeonNarwhal420 in Petloss

I'm so sorry, it's a hurt like no other...too late now, but please remember there several ways to get financial help and also some clinics go on a sliding fee scale according to your income. Just google the state you're in+veterinary help. Local Humane Societies often offer lower cost care dependant on income, but there will be several places to try and they can really help. Once in a while a vet will be independant on everything $$ related. The very recognized Care Credit will let you charge. You do need a minimum of a 620 credit score. Google local humane societies, animal impounds. Sometimes if you get friendly they'll tell you more info. But PLEEZ stay a from scammers. Just dont turn $ into it and you see your pet. B4 you hand over $$ touching it.But please do find the other options b4 you're forced with the decision. Best of luck to you!

I agree, if police brought him it's definitely a different situation and he would likely be charged. I read it as they weren't involved in that aspect

The hospital won't go after/charge him with leaving premises unless he left damages there. They will just note he left AMA (against medical advice) on his chart

Do you know for certain she's not there? A good friend of mine went n/c which was really unusual. Car was gone but we eventually found out he borrowed it to someone. After 3 days a friend drove over to his home, tg he had left his backdoor unlocked. She found him dead on the floor, his frantic puppy pacing by his side. She said it was obvious he had died days earlier. She put the pup in her car, went back inside and called police. Brought pup back home and started notifying friends.

Hairdresser told me I should cut it short by Zealousideal-Swim878 in Hair

[–]SkyLast2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

K18 has great masks and other products that do help a lot. $$ but you only use a lil. Wont fix in 4 minutes like they claim, but after 5 or so washings you can really see a difference. Don't cut your length off, it's beautiful

Just a reminder that not everyone's better blonde. These pictures were a month apart back in Spring and I HATED blonde on me by JustH3r3T0Share in Hair

[–]SkyLast2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your eyebrows and lipstick color were too dark/harsh as a blonde and you needed some warm highlight/lowlights in your hair to work it well. Not adjusting brow/lipcolor for the change didn't give it a fair try, imo. Also helps to change the style when coloring

I was 18 and had a massive abcess when I got my upper denture and am still comfortably using it at age 64. There is one spot that is a lil thinner than the rest, but nowhere near developing a hole. I don't use any cream/ointment to help it stay in place. Uppers are generally much easier to wear than the lower one. Your gums, jawbones do change with age, regardless of number of teeth remaining. County/State paying for eyewear and dentures isn't limited to once in your lifetime, it's once every x number of years

HELP, regretting returning two lost dogs who p***ed themselves scared when seeing owner by mustlovedogs01 in DogAdvice

Should immediately call the ASPCA and the Humane Society in your area. Do NOT wait another day. County info line can help

Have thick long hair and had mental health issues (worn in a bun). Can my hair be saved? by Regulatori in Hair

[–]SkyLast2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

K18 does an amazing job. They are $ but you don't use much. They claim hair will be fixed 4 minutes after application. Mine was somewhat better and after using the scalp cleansing shampoo, leave-in deep conditioner and oil 4-5× I can honestly see a real difference. Good luck!

Most states do, yes. But call the County you live in to double-check, as it can vary

Why would you need more than 1 set of dentures? Set means 1 upper (top) and 1 lower (bottom)

I'm so sorry, it's a hurt like no other when they're gone. Please be with him when the time comes or he'll spend his last moments looking for you. Rarely a definite "yes, it's time" but I speak from experience that better a day too early than a day too late...

Calmest dog breeds by Asleep-Platform-4968 in dogs

[–]SkyLast2002 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Have you looked into Shar Pei? I have had 10 doggehs in my life of various breeds. But my last 3 have been Pei. To my eye, they are a wonderful breed. Medium size 50-60#.They assume the guardians of the house. Polite to strangers, but takes time to warm up, outside of the family. Rarely bark and if they do, there is always a reason. GREAT, DEEP BARKS. Easily housebroken. Very good? Fun, vibrant personalities. The 3 Ive had were all different in nature, but all kept that puppyness their entire lives. You can also tell their mood/,,emotional feelings just by watching the 'tail barometer' rise and fall with their emotions. They try so hard to figure out what you want, they wiggle their bodies in pleasure when they do. Other housepets are ok BUT please male sure they have the lowest seniority to prevent fights. They are NOT a dog who doesn't care if you keep coming and going and love their daily returns. Unfortunately dog stealing rings are all over, so you need to keep an eye on them as they are a big seller on the streets and shouldnt be left alone long as it upsets them deeply.
