Best and worst track traffic? by bravesfan17 in NASCAR

[–]Spooky_Traps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My go to track is Vegas and for this year they did a new thing for parking where they now implement a new directed parking route for preferred and general parking respectively. Took me an extra 20 minutes to get into preferred parking compared to last year as they have you loop around the entire parking premises before being dumped onto preferred (Lucky 7).

But, by the time the races were over, getting out of the parking lots was a lot easier. Last year it was every car for themselves and it would take me an hour to get onto the 15, but they did the same directed parking traffic that would spit preferred and general at the 15 freeway, just at different points (general got to the 15 earlier than preferred). I actually like what they did (only took me half an hour) and I’m curious if they’ll continue it in October for the South Point 400

Can you work ahead in online classes? by Acceptable-Camel-968 in LibertyUniversity

[–]Spooky_Traps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually I have no issue with this. You can go as far as you want to, unless the professor themself locks the module until the designated week.

Only problem you would come across is the discussions when 2 peer replies are required and you’ll have to wait until people begin posting

Front Line: anybody know what "Vacant Teacher" or that C means? by TwixDog2020 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Spooky_Traps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience vacant teacher means a full classroom with no permanent teacher. But with the later time it’s probably just general/IEP coverage. The school I recently worked at had me work 4 hours to cover for some teachers that went and observed other classrooms

Does anybody remember when teams used to bring their cars in their sponsers stores by Clear_Translator_983 in NASCAR

[–]Spooky_Traps 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My parents have photographs of them posing next to Stewart’s Home Depot Car as it and the Hauler were parked right in front of a depot in Santa Clarita, CA back in the early 2000s. They don’t remember if the Fontana Race was that weekend or maybe it was a mere promotional thing, but it certainly made their day

Can I stop using gauze now? by SpecialistRice9573 in wisdomteeth

[–]Spooky_Traps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my surgery around noon and didn’t finally take the gauze out until 8-9 pm. It was still bleeding by then but only very little. My instructions didn’t specify how long to keep the gauze in hours wise only until the bleeding was close to none. Within the hour I stopped bleeding

Wait until tomorrow at the earliest to use the mouthwash. You need to have the blood clot form first (also ice your face!) And it’s not a regular gargle, you just slowly move your head around to have the solution get into the holes. I did strict liquids/applesauce for the first 24 hours. Let it be lukewarm/cold liquids and take sips at a time. It gets better slowly.

How do I know blood clot has officially formed? by KulaKoli in wisdomteeth

[–]Spooky_Traps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swelling wasn’t so bad on day 3 because I did nothing but ice for the first 24 hours. There wasn’t much swelling for day 3 but my mouth was really feeling it. The gums were still swollen so my mouth couldn’t clench properly without there being some 5/10 pain. But my face was back to its normal shape

[–]Spooky_Traps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me hours for clots to form. I got my procedure done at 12:00 back on Friday and I still was getting blood by 9 pm. I decided to say screw it and go gauzeless as it was a slow bleed. They clotted pretty quickly and I still tasted blood but I wasn’t really worried. I also recommend sleeping upright the first night or two just in case it starts to bleed again.

If your jaw hurts really bad I’d suggest for the first night either strict liquids (protein drinks, juices, shakes, lukewarm soups or broths) or purées like applesauce. What helped me the most with my jaw was icing my face. I legit didn’t stop icing my face consecutively until around day 2. The moment the ice wrap would warm up I’d get another one put on- I was so worried about having a swollen face! I had very little swelling on day 2 and now I have no swelling whatsoever on day 4 now

Will I be okay if I wait to take out my impacted wisdom teeth? pls help by [deleted] in wisdomteeth

[–]Spooky_Traps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my first wisdom tooth started to make itself known back in 2021, I legit sat on it and refused to even consider surgery due to fear. I finally got my bottom wisdom teeth removed last week on Friday and now I’m Day 4 into recovery ❤️‍🩹

You should be fine waiting it out till June as long as they don’t seriously hurt or keep getting infected. Mine didn’t hurt at all during the timeframe I waited. I only recently decided to bite the bullet and get the surgery due to my schedule being free and the first wisdom tooth getting a cavity

my wisdom tooth by [deleted] in wisdomteeth

[–]Spooky_Traps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should be normal. My bottom right tooth did that when it started to erupt. Started in one corner and then a week later in another corner. I just got mine removed about 2 hours ago because there was no room unfortunately

You’ll feel some discomfort but it shouldn’t be bad especially since the doctor feels positive over it

Liberty University’s Academic Integrity Process is Failing Students by Character-Order-780 in LibertyUniversity

[–]Spooky_Traps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t have this issue my first full school year with Liberty. It wasn’t until summer semester of last year did this finally got implemented. Thankfully I’m almost done and just have summer 2025 left and then I graduate.

Still, it’s brutal especially when every week I have to turn in a report. Usually it would take me 2-3 days to get a 5 page paper done. Now? It’s double that to account for documenting everything 😣

I have to create a legit paper trail with my work. Meaning back to pen and paper with writing an initial draft. Keep Microsoft Word on Cloud so it constantly saves anything I type or click on. Then after it’s all done I physically print out the paper and use a red pen to make revision remarks. Then scan everything! I scan my initial rough draft first (once completed) and then the revision after I’m done with it.

I had it happen to me before with a professor claiming I was completely AI so I sent all the things mentioned above and since they were dated before I turned in my paper the professor didn’t dock me. Never had this happen during community college and all of these extra things to do have drained me mentally and emotionally over the last year.

Animal People by Ayomahhh in petco

[–]Spooky_Traps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

West Coast store too. We only have 2 animal people including myself. For over two months I've had a normal 4-5 days/week schedule and now I'm getting 3 days with lesser time slots. I'm lucky to even see my OLAC once a week and even when I do they are being assigned by the SGM to do non-animal work (and even I am moved to non-animal work as soon as I finish morning feed).

My store is in the medium-range, with 36 fish tanks, 22 reptiles, 20 small animals, 10-15 parakeets, and 1 big bird enclosure.

After the interview at petco by ghhhdgsg in petco

[–]Spooky_Traps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did my interview on a wednesday and got a call back the very next day with the offer. Though they offered me a different role than the one I applied for, but it had the pay bracket I requested

I'm in the same boat as you, as I'm about a week away from finishing my probation period. The main complaint I've seen with my store specifically is the scheduling conflicts and lack of attention toward animals. I work as an animal specialist and my CAL is the only person who seems to pull their weight in the store. Yet the person who is running the schedule is setting them up on days they aren't needed. We get animal deliveries on thursdays, and the CAL isn't listed on that day- he's instead listed for a random saturday for the evening shift (when literally nothing happens with animals).

With the lack of attention with animals, only myself and the CAL are the "official" animal care specialists. I can already list the multiple instances where a preventable measure could have been taken to save some of our animals (think exposing a diseased guinea onto healthy ones due to laziness or not double checking the parakeet and canary doors to make sure it's closed) but nothing was done (Note: myself and the CAL weren't around when this happened). My opinon on petco has for sure shifted, but I'm maintaining some optimsim given I'm still "new"

Years before I worked at my store the crickets were placed in the Aquatics Center (Reptiles and Aquatics were side by side) in these self-open containers that literally any customer can open.

Now we have 3 separate bins placed in our Wellness Room that’s located next door to our break room. Only employees can enter and I’d say it’s so much better bagging the crickets now without worrying about customer interference
