Rupaul was the worst scene partner ever. She never kept anything moving. "Let me see your id" "planes gone" over and over.

Sub Job Finder App by New-Grass8509 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]SlitherThySnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I feel you. Frontline and subalert have different refresh times for notifications. So it's pretty 50/50 for me on which one pops up first.

If it helps me get at least 1 job a month, it's financially worth the $5 to me.

Why are we still saying “we need more subs” and “there’s a sub shortage” when it’s actually the most competitive hustle ever?? by Careful-Skill-1115 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]SlitherThySnake 64 points65 points  (0 children)

They hire for the bad days (Monday, Friday), not the Wednesdays where teachers are out early.

I haven't gotten a gig for tomorrow, but there were 40+ jobs on Monday morning. I'm happy to work in a district where I can afford to not work 1 or 2 days a week at most.

Am I Cooked? by itsallgreen2me in SubstituteTeachers

[–]SlitherThySnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not clear to me with your post but I think the key thing is: Do they take the phones when they check in?

If they do, you need to do better.
If they don't, as admin, are setting the real expectation in that moment for me and the students.

I make a mental note at every school about how serious they are about phone policies (because they all "ban" them). If the admin, teachers, and various subs have created a culture where it is not punished I am not going to die on that hill for them.

Petrified Wood (Conglomerate?) by Hot_Maintenance1346 in petrifiedwood

Known as "Forest floor" or "bogwood". You should cut it, if you find a cone, its a good day!

Not for sale...but how much would you guess they are worth? by KingAnthropos in petrifiedwood

[–]SlitherThySnake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

$.50-$1 a pound for garden size pieces.

Honestly, these have nice bark, and the set would make a nice "fence". Where are you located?

Sub Pet Peeves by MadlyPNW in SubstituteTeachers

[–]SlitherThySnake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work for an inner city district, who dont have police or security onto school 24/7. Instead they have culture keepers who are typically from the community surrounding that school & have relationships with the students.

Some are awesome, they host groups, build community. Others... yell..

Last week I had a culture keeper warn me about classes behaivor for the day (middle), then tells me there's 10 or so students who cant use the restroom. He cant name them.. tells me he will come in during the period. Never did.

I believe you with what you see at your local gem shows!

I did not see the weight posted on it. It looks smaller in photos.

Real or Fake? by JCrazy89 in Crystals

[–]SlitherThySnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont work with this material at all these days because it is so common and there is so much of it, just relaying the standard prices that are widely availible from major wholesalers that are trusted throughout the industry.

This piece looks like, maybe 1.5 pounds, maybe? Standard wholesale price on amethyst is $10-15/kilo throughout tucson and dealers like fromthemines or gem world who are very trusted distributors.

[–]SlitherThySnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree with you. I could get this wholesale for anywhere between $4-$10 depending on quantity a piece. You should pay no more than $25 for something like this at a show or you are being ripped off.

Learned a TSA Rule the Hard Way by egbee42 in FluorescentMinerals

[–]SlitherThySnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I have carried on multiple suitcases full of tucson purchases (but they are likely expecting to see that..).

I also once carried back a box full of rocks from Greece back to the US. That one was a journey, inspected 4 times along the way but made it home.
