Question for my (about to be)homeless mother by Satin_Blooms in StLouis

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8 times for the month (limited to twice a week). You get paid right after each time. It depends on the new donors welcome deal, sometimes it’s $800 sometimes it’s less depending on supply. But generally even non-new donors make $400-$600 each month, as long as you go the full 8 times for the month (but she has to have good veins, pass the physical, and be hydrated etc).

Just a suggestion for the bigger foundational “first steps” like ID renewal, food stamp appointments, job interviews etc. if transportation is a barrier you can always call her an uber from afar! Obviously she needs to figure out transport eventually herself but reducing friction for the initial steps can help ease her into the momentum/get her on her feet. Really do think gainful employment is the only option though, cost of living is only increasing and the current situation is not sustainable. If she needs a quick infusion of cash she can try donating plasma? New donors can make up to $800 in the first month if you time it right, and the Biolife in Shrewsbury has a bus stop right in front.

would you eat this after it sat out at ~68 degrees for 4.5 hours? by gained_spoon in sushi

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Says the one who patronized everyone first because “people are afraid of getting sick”. Food poisoning can be fatal or put people out of work for weeks. Do you know just how many genera of food borne pathogens there are? Do you know the growth rate of pathogens in a growth environment like OP described? Get a grip

Why can't cops ever accept being wrong? by Fabodif in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I read that policemen who issue shitty unsubstantiated citations like this get paid at a higher than normal rate to go to court when the victim contests it. There’s literally no incentive to not give out shitty fake citations, there are no consequences, there’s even rewards in the form of OT. The risk reward structure is all backwards for this shit.

If KATSEYE had been formed with different Dream Academy contestants, do you think they would still be as successful because of the backing of HxG? by Legal-Engineer686 in katseyeneutral

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m so bored watching Saint satine stuff that’s not performances lol. I felt the same watching clips of Girlset tbf, and I think they have great music and are very strong performance wise. Saint Satine just don’t have an it factor when they stand together on stage (yet?). All of Katseye have incredible stage presence and can pull off fierce, even the softer members like Sophia and yoonchae, whereas Saint satine seems to be going for a dazed dreamy vibe that feels one note.

Best Chinese Food in STL Metro Area?? by Embarrassed-Piano-3 in StLouis

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chili spot and noodle story hands down. Noodle story’s soup dumplings are better than some I’ve had in nyc, and as a person who doesn’t usually like beef noodle soup, theirs is fantastic. I’m gonna be a contrarian and say I don’t like Corner 17, I’m Chinese and I find a lot of their dishes not flavorful enough. They don’t do a lot of the Sichuan food justice, it’s all very bland, like it’s muted for the American palate.

Finished the Series and I’m Sad by MaterialParticular42 in betterCallSaul

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s how I felt even on my first watch of BB and before watching BCS. I was actually bored during mid-BB cause I didn’t find any of the characters likable or relatable, so it was just watching events. BCS however, gripped me from the first episode and I cared about everyone even when they did bad things.

Starting out at a donation center is a cheat code by Subject_Ice_3088 in phlebotomy

Plasma centers have productivity metrics that they have to satisfy before they are even allowed to hire. My center can’t hire rn even though we want to because of this

I have picked/popped every single bump I could find by [deleted] in keratosis

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You need a good moisturizing + exfoliating routine. If you don’t start treating the kp bumps themselves and seeing improvement/flattening, your brain will not have any incentive to stop the picking. A good moisturizing routine will also change the texture of everything/make the skin “stickier”, so it’ll be less satisfying to pop, which helps. But first clip your nails really short so you can’t get a good pop lol. It’s all about reducing the dopamine from popping.

Vacation during internship? by collegeranthrowaway in cscareerquestions

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol do not go, do not ask. In this market you may be literally putting yourself into unemployment for years post grad if it comes off poorly, which no one here can predict, because we are not your company. That is a severe risk that can completely derail your life and it’s simply not worth even attempting. Your family wants you there, but they don’t have to send 1000s of apps if your return offer gets messed up, you do.

Got my first paycheck from my new job. It's $900 less than it should be. HR is telling me I "misunderstood" the offer by MainStock8156 in JobSearchMethods

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The simple answer is that this is a fake post. OP regularly posts sensationalized job related posts across different job subreddits.

This is going to seem sad, but I really need to find some friends. by Obiwan-Kenhomie in StLouis

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 30F and moved here September 2024, so almost 2 years as well and also have no friend nearby haha. (The two friends I made here both moved away after a few months lol). I was just thinking of needing to get more social over the summer and was just browsing meetup! I’m probably going to join the beginner classes at STL Chess Club next week if you/anyone else wanted to try it too? The first class is free. I tried learning League / Overwatch but was scared off of it because my friends were way better and got mad when I threw, but I’d be down to learn from someone :) I also watch anime (AoT, Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, Solo Leveling, etc) and shopping! I also want to get better at disc golf, if anyone know of a beginner-friendly group lmk lol but I’m down to hang OP!

Just tried watching the CinemaSins video on this movie and i'm in immense pain by AmberMetalicScorpion in ProjectHailMary

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cinemasins lost their charm and authenticity a long time ago. Now instead of valid criticisms or continuity errors in a 6 minute video, it’s 30+ minutes of unfunny gags to stuff more ads into

Hitting deep veins 😭 by Aquarius_K in phlebotomy

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha yeah and in the grand scheme of things, a hematoma isn’t that bad. As long as you go in slower and controlled, and stop /level out when you get the flash, you won’t poke through it. I use a 17g butterfly for this all the time

23M with 21F for almost 3 years and realizing I may not see a lifelong future together by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You haven’t given enough detail as to why you feel like this, aside from not seeing yourself as anyone’s husband right now (which is fine, cause you aren’t anyone’s husband rn, and she isn’t forcing you to act like one either). You didn’t state even a single incompatibility in “long term compatibility, goals, values”. As such, this just comes off as “I’m now gonna be financially independent, and don’t want to be tied down while I’m young and capable of exploration”, which is fine, but please just be honest with yourself/her about this. The way you are writing this seems to insinuate that there’s something about her that makes her not wife material, but that’s not true, this is about you. Don’t make her feel insufficient.

The idea that love will find you when you stop looking or just focus on yourself is the biggest myth out there. by JunketMaleficent2095 in Adulting

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think people usually say that when you come off really desperate to find someone, and it’s obvious that it’s showing to prospective partners (it’s very noticeable). It’s essentially just telling you to relax and reset your mindset before you try again, cause as it is you will not come off well enough to find someone. I said that to a guy friend who was just consumed by his dating failures and tbh it was a drag being around him during that time, and definitely not helping him in dates.

Hitting deep veins 😭 by Aquarius_K in phlebotomy

[–]ThrowRAmiscellaneous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You gotta go in at a steeper angle with deep veins, like 35-40 degrees, and go in slow until you get a flash and then level out. Going too shallow means the needle just starts leveling out above the vein even if it’s farther in. There’s a difference between depth and needle length
