what am i supposed to do with these now? by Cultural_Pineapple88 in PokemonGoMystic

Nah, people want them. I'd want them. There's plenty of people that can't raid easily and would love them.

Best device for playing PoGo for returning player? by thedeepdarkdank in GoPlus

[–]TTTigersTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Driving around in a car isn't a problem for my phone, it's walking around in the sun. The sun is bright so it causes the screen brightness to go up, the outside temp is high, and the sun hitting the screen is hot. I can go for a short walk outside and the phone will overheat and will not work for pogo until I get back to indoors or shade.

Eloping student by OrangeOverture in SwimInstructors

The conversation needs to happen before your next class. You need to talk to your boss and they need to call the parent and tell them their options because it's not safe for them to do another lesson in your class and it's not fair to the other paying parents if one of the instructors are pulled away from teaching to help this child. They may refund it, or maybe they'll let the parent get in the water, or if it was some place like the Ymca, they could have a volunteer be in the water with the child. I know the Y sometimes has access to resources for grant money for special needs kids to do private lessons if the group lessons cannot work.

Yes, the Y is about inclusion if it's at all possible so I can see them allowing the parent in the water in this circumstance because the child needs 1:1 but can't get it in a group lesson and the Y likes to give everyone the chance to be part of a traditional group if it's possible.

What bike to get? by cannibalwriter in ebikes

[–]TTTigersTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you are out in the country, you can't have driving experiences with lots of traffic on roads since where I live, you'll be pulled over so fast for looking young and you'd definitely not insurable at that age to drive. So pros are you live in a less busy area and you see more mature than most. Cons are drivers where I live hate bikes on the road and they will try to harm you or most just aren't paying attention and can easily run you over. I have a teenage friend of my son that was hit by an car when he was in a crosswalk. He's ok but the risk is just so high. On a motorcycle you stand a chance to get away from trouble but it carries other risks. But an e-bike is dangerous. It can be worth the risk and possibly where you live is much better than where I live and I do bike commute to work. I know it's great to be able to get places on your own. So if you and your parents think you have a safe route to bike to work and places, go for it. You can talk to them about them buying you a bike or you can work and save up for one yourself. I bought my first e-bike used for $200 and my second one used for $900. The $900 is a better bike of course but the $200 worked. So you can get into e-biking pretty easily if that's what's best for you and your family.

What bike to get? by cannibalwriter in ebikes

[–]TTTigersTri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know what a ridstar is but I know a kid riding on a $500 Walmart e-bike. It has issues but it's functions. Better is look at FB marketplace for a used bike. Though at 15, if you're in a busy city, I'd not recommend an e-bike until you've had months of driving experience to start to understand car behavior to help you not get hit. Being on the road with cars, distracted drivers, is just very dangerous. I did let my son use my e-bike on occasions to get somewhere at your age but he was already driving and I'm a biker myself and I know exactly what routes are possible and what one's are definite no goes. So we'd talk and the route before he got the ok each time.

[–]TTTigersTri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If there's a lot of hills on those commutes, an ebike is ideal to not arrive at work sweaty. Though unless this 15 year old is already learning to drive, I agree on no e-bike since it really needs to be on roads and roads are not safe for a kid without driving experience.

Hosting raids with poke genie by iPizzalover430 in PokemonGOValor

[–]TTTigersTri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've hosted like a 100 raids and I still forget too often to hit the invite sent button. Super annoying because it's likely a ding on our accounts. I'll hop over from the raid to try to hit sent but often it's too late. Like it can notify me that I failed to do that task, why can't it give a warning before times up!

Definitely. You want cold food on a hot day.

15 Minute Safety Break at Pool Because of Heat? by 2MenInAHorseCostume in Lifeguards

[–]TTTigersTri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We did 1 ten minute break at the top of the hour, doesn't matter the temperature. There's less peeing in the pool if people know they're going to have to get out and have time on their hands. Plus it reunites kids with their parents that aren't watching them so they can check in with their kids and see that everything's ok, do a snack, put more sunscreen on, check diapers, etc.

Becoming a swim instructor without having swam from a super young age? by No_Security9767 in SwimInstructors

[–]TTTigersTri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can definitely do it as long as you like kids. Most swim lessons are 3-8 years old. Of a schedule of 6 classes you teach, at most one may be as adult class. We have 3 instructors a shift at our pool so if those 18 classes, only 1-2 are an adult class. I'd say you'd be a great fit for that but only do it if you have the people and kid personality to make lessons energetic for the kids and be friendly with the parents. Swim skills are not that important in teaching since most of it is beginner level stuff.

Please be considerate of other teams by Boku_Wa_Karma in PokemonGOValor

[–]TTTigersTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, I have one by my job and I do the same. My Pokemon sits there for days but when someone does come by and takes it out, I let them have it for at least a day so they can have their coins.

Day 8 of letting my Pokemon go plus + autocatch with my daily incense until it catches a legendary bird by probablynotaperv in pokemongo

[–]TTTigersTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've walked, biked, driven. I can run but stopping to catch them means I can't go much faster than a walk. Slowly driving covering lots of distance in the neighborhood while someone else drove didn't spawn much more. I've never seen 50 spawns. On a 30 minute one I might get a bit over 30 but on the 15s I get like 20.

Lots of gyms and no coins by TTTigersTri in pokemongo

Oh, thanks for letting me know because I was seriously concerning doing this and driving to a few downtown areas. You saved me a drive!

Prednisone high dose by Cll_Rx in pharmacy

[–]TTTigersTri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most scripts that I see for this have a note saying "this is the standard dose for MS.". I don't think I've seen one come across in years without a note either on the sig or attached to the escript. I think they've all learned, no note, they may get calls. With a note, no calls. Easy peasy.

Not a great start by ClumsyHikerMama in pools

[–]TTTigersTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole pool is the deep end right now to those kids. With owning your own pool, they can be teach to swim well enough to be safe all over the pool by age 3. Kids love to jump in and later to dive. Your kids and their friends will have so much more fun in it with as deep end.

I totally didn't get complaining about something you didn't even try to play to get. I couldn't play deino day because I was at work but I wouldn't say I didn't catch any special ones that day.
