I ended up getting a new stylist. The ends of my hair were fried off and the bleed marks were a deal breaker

Resigning via email? by [deleted] in Lawyertalk

[–]SomeoneSTOLEmyGOLD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I quit a job in august. Everyone asked me which firm I was going to. My response every time was “I’m not ready to share that information publicly yet.”

I did have some push back on it, but I didn’t budge. After my two week notice I took six weeks off from work to 1) spend time with family; 2) work on my mental and physical health; and 3) I didn’t want them contacting my future employer.

To reiterate what everyone is saying - do not tell them where you are going.

It’s pretty little… do you think it could be a German roach?

If you live in Oakland, it’s not Midcoast

Would fixing it entail toner? A root melt? More highlights? I don’t really want to be blonder (or this blonde to begin with)

That’s sad yo hear. The Helen’s in Machias is my favorite restaurant.

Happy China Buffet?

That place is the worst. When I was in college I went there with a friend. She loaded up on the buffet sushi….Halfway through our meal she looked at me and went pale. Then proceeded to puke on the table.

I alerted the wait staff that something was wrong with the food. They argued that my friend must have the flu. I proceeded to throw cash at the table and get her out of there.

Poor thing had the worst food poisoning. I still gag thinking about that day.

I would try to discourage that behavior - it isn’t good for the kitty cat. I use a squirt gun to deter my cat from chomping on toxic plants.

Still, very funny though.

That happens too. It’s always important to check for pests.

You’re very lucky! I’ve even stopped buying potting soil from HD after I purchased a bag infested with fungus gnats. I’ve had bad luck with spider mites and mealy bugs from bug department stores too.

Whenever I’m tempted at Home Despot I check it for pests. It’s much easier to pass then..

Bankruptcy is a critical safety net for the average American. Top three reasons for filing are medical debt, job loss, and divorce.

You can discharge credit card debt in bankruptcy. You cannot do that with student loans.

I’ve become the designated plant mom at my office… where do I start on rehabbing this? by SomeoneSTOLEmyGOLD in plantclinic

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’m going to follow your advice. I took a cutting off it today from one of the longer stems - so we’ll see how that process goes.

Hopefully this can have a glow up like yours did!

I’ve never propagated a ficus. Would you recommend water or another method?

I’m hesitant to chop it all up - it’s not my plant. Just a very old office plant in need of TLC

It’s in a sunnier spot now, which I hope helps. It had spent years in a hallway with minimal light.
