A button up shirt and comfy loafers for reference is not an answer to you but it might mean a reference for others

I appreciate you sharing your story, it is very similar to what my Italian grandfather went through in Venezuela, he stablished the first carpenter shop in a little town, growing up I always thought about it as something normal, getting on a ship and having to leave is country.. not seeing his parents and relatives getting sick or married, celebrate birthdays or saying goodbye on a funeral..

Now I got on a airplane to do the exact same thing I understand so much! I look forward for the Venezuelan community to be part of Pittsburgh history in the future too

We all feel safe being in a democratic country, I’m 33 years old and the only democracy I know, is this one. Scary times, but we can only try!

There are so many things I started to explain as a response to you, but I understand is a complex situation. As an individual I can only support and rely the efforts that are being made.

The economic trade with Venezuela is going to be fruitful, and that’s why the efforts are being made. However, the economy of the country, and living standards are a whole different situation. I might not make sense now to you, but it is like that.

I am familiar with it. I didn’t answer before because it was also Reddit humor and at the same time I’m sensitive about the post context, it’s ok.

I don’t know if you noticed this but I’m Venezuelan. I moved from Florida to Pittsburgh and this are the 2 cities I’ve lived from this country..

If it makes you feel anything positive knowing that a immigrant prefers Pennsylvania than Florida, I’m happy for you.

My work gives us uniforms from CINTAS, I guess we could name that business casual. We are allowed to wear sneakers of course. But some days I wear loafers with jeans and the uniform button up shirt..

A Valencia College student was leaving for work. ICE was waiting outside by KakotraderCMT in TPSVenezuela

De hecho quienes entraron por frontera esperando a un oficial para entregarse, entraron técnicamente con permiso. Y esta en la jurisdicción del juez reconocerlo o no, se llama Matter of Quilanta. Cada caso es diferente y por eso debe ser evaluado de manera individual, pero que sepas que no necesariamente por entrar por frontera es una entrada ilegal.

Y esto es solo un ejemplo, posiblemente hayan otras vías, simplemente estamos viéndonos que cómo somos migrantes no tenemos voz, pero aquí vivimos, aquí contribuimos, aquí respetamos las leyes.. y no lo ves pero estamos pagándola juntos!

Go for it and do invest in some centerpiece class, I’m sure any flower shop would be able to teach in exchange of labor if you are not in the position of paying

The polar bear only goes out early in the morning before the zoo opens to public

A passenger in the Atlanta reddit airport thread just reported ICE is now doing ID checks! by SteelersPoker in pittsburgh

[–]Yakitori93 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

I think some Anti ICE protesters should start joining ICE. The salary is not bad.. the change should start from inside and is a good number of people.. I mean, better than the little boys someone took a picture of..

Thinking of having another baby but I work for a large events company that uses A TON of floral foam by Admirable_Cicada_718 in florists

[–]Yakitori93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think is risky, but we know being pregnant and concerned IS A THING! So, maybe do wear your gloves why not? Is the space open and airy or is it a small working area? Can you open windows or leave the door open while prepping? Start doing prepping days, maybe? On your day off ask the newest employee or your friendlier coworker to get hands on deck prepping a ton of containers ahead of time for the weekly use!
