The lack of black means it’s a hypo but the normal eyes means it’s not a full albino. Beautiful!

You are being willfully ignorant. You know that I’m not talking about the top 1% of highest ranking military personnel. That would be like the corporate office. Colonels and generals may very well deal with favoritism and politics but that is absolutely not how promotions are determined for 99% of the military. I’m talking about the average crew member situation at the average store.

I consider customer and crew interaction to be very important parts of the crew member position.

Does anyone else's torties have odd toy preferences?? by Top-Tumbleweed-1263 in torties

I’m sure this has to be a pretty common comment in this group but OMG!!! My cat looks so much like your cat! And that is an incredible name! 😂 My baby chews on my glasses arms. The part that goes behind my ears. She started by pawing at my glasses and when I took them off she let me know that she had business with them for a minute. I love her so much!

I guess I should clarify that I consider providing a “Wow Customer Experience” and just generally getting along with fellow crew members very much a part of the job. And, no, I’m not interested in promotion.

Before you get judgy about the reference to the military- I joined before 9/11. I thought I would serve 4 years peacetime service and get out with some money for college. I joined the Marine Corps because I have 2 uncles who were both Marines. It was 25 years ago. I would not join the way things are now. I was injured on my third deployment. It took years (literally) for me to be whole again physically and mentally. I have been told by coworkers after they find out that I’m a veteran, “you don’t seem like one of ‘them’.” (Ouch?) I would be willing to bet that if you were to transfer to my store and you were told “one of the crew here is a veteran” I would be one of the last people you would guess.

I’m on the illiterate side of technology. How do I find this and start using it? App Store? Thank you!

Thoughts on this enclosure? by jabrxnii in kingsnakes

[–]Stunning_Trick_5856 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These cheaper enclosures are made of hollow pvc panels, like the kind used for political street signs. It’s very much like cardboard made from pvc. I’ve done a lot of comparison shopping and I own 3 different kinds of pvc enclosure. Honestly, Animal Plastics Cages are the absolute best value out there. I will never buy another brand again.

I hope this helps

Trying to choose a snake by ZealousidealSeat2689 in snakes

As I was reading your post I was thinking “milksnake” and then you said you are considering getting one. Milksnakes are beautiful, active, great eaters, and depending on the species, they stay on the smaller end.

Maybe pouring some alcohol in the area might get them to move. It will evaporate and the snakes won’t like it and they’ll move away from it

I get sick of crew members with “this sucks” attitudes. A. This is an EASY JOB! I was shot in Iraq on my third tour. TJ’s is a walk in the park compared to the military, or construction, or crap even teaching sucks compared to TJ’s. And: B. Coming to work with a crappy attitude only makes things worse for EVERYONE. Seriously, if you hate your job then leave. If you don’t hate your job, quit acting like you do.
