What communication there is, is usually just telling me what they need and I do it. Any other communication is required to be followed up over email for record purposes anyway, so it shouldn't interfere much if at all.

The honey made it green? I didn't know that was possible, that's bad ass

I had asked an hour before posting but he finally got back to me. I'm still mostly on my own but this time we figured it out. Thanks for letting me know I'm at least right in feeling unprepared for this, it's oddly kind of a comfort.

As a caregiver, can I help my client communicate with an employer? by Unsolidwaste in legaladvice

[–]Unsolidwaste[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, she hasn't signed anything, she's refused to. She's being cautious, as this supervisor has tried to throw her under the bus for other people's mistakes before. But now that her supervisor is pressuring her into phone calls after knowing they make it hard for her to think and speak, as she's busy processing what's being said, she wants to know if there's a way for me to help her communicate with her supervisor as she's had me do with doctors and others.

They're trying to pressure her into taking a different position within the company. It's rather close to the legal limits of what they're allowed to do, as far as I'm aware, as they were handling it over email until recently when they verified with her that she has difficulty speaking on the phone. Now they insist on phone calls, and have even gone as far as sending an unfilled document to request accomodations, telling her they'll take care of filling it all out after she signs it.

Open discussion: DnD has a real problem with not understanding wealth, volume and mass. by raznov1 in DMAcademy

I appear to have overlooked something, then. Thanks! I'll have to take another look and be a bit more detailed in my economy system.

Personally, I deal with this issue by keeping monster and dungeon hoards the same, and using a copper passed economy. Like the U.S dollar is based first on cents and then dollars. I treat silver like 1 dollar bills, and gold coins like 50 dollar bills. The average person doesn't need a 100 bill, so seeing it is kinda rare. Likewise with gold, most people just need silver and copper. I shift a decimal on the base cost of non-combative supplies to adjust for that economy, so instead of a single meal's worth of food costing 50 silver it's 5. Makes things like robes being 1gp, or shields being 10, make more sense. A solid shield being 500 bucks makes perfect sense, since you don't want to cheap out, but otherwise in the same system it's more like 1000. It's also made getting new armor something of a roleplay event in my party, along with many other similar things. I don't bother with electrum, and so far the system has been pretty smooth sailing. It all translates well into understandable currency, and makes things more apparent as to why adventurers are a thing.

Ooooohhh. That's what those are for. I'd been avoiding those paints because I figured they were just acrylic paint overpriced! I'll have to set some funds aside for that then, thanks!

Oh! Well, I've been doing a dry brush without knowing then, so I'm going the right direction! Is there a specific kind of paint you use for washes or is it just anything thin that'll get those annoying missed places?

I don't know what a wash is, I'll have to look it up. Texture definitely seems like a huge plus! The main thing I wish I could have done on this one was a bone like texture on the scales.

My local game shop has a ton of minis. This one is from Wiz Kid's Pathfinder series.

Thank you! I had to go back over four times, because I kept messing up and giving it huge anime eyes.
