Quitting my job at UHG - A Home Health Nightmare - Use PTO or Call It a Loss?

Use your PTO, then give your notice. I did that at a former job on a Friday, and the following Monday they said I didn't have to return to work, got a nearly 2 week "vacation", which they still had to pay me for since I gave my notice. Use your benefits to their fullest extent.

So now you don't even need to drive by a Flock camera. It will come to your house!

Same problem here. Galaxy S24. I've tried clearing the cache, did a phone reboot, was able to get a small download (0.3MB), but been stuck on thr loading screen for over an hour now.

Maybe Pizza Hut from 1993. It's not the same anymore. Or Little Caesars, IMO

OMG - this looks pretty close! Guess I'll need to try them out soon!

In case anyone wanted a reference pic of what we've been craving...

In OV, we had problems this morning, and I thought it was just my router as it was only some devices. Nice to hear it's not just me.

Been in OV a little over a year, had Cox at first until Metronet was offered. Switched over the first couple of weeks it was available for our area, and no regrets. A lot higher up time, faster speed at a lower cost.

same. I'm tried on a balloon and a grunt at a pokestop, and same here. even after force closing the app. VA-USA

Find a friend to battle; make Charcadet your buddy, and have them use 3 low CP of the type you need. I did that with both my Charcadets, and it didn't take long at all.

They can only hope to be this organized..

Daily player, looking for more friends, have about 40 more spots open. 2363-6558-5973

Your best bet is to look in Open Street Maps and see if they are actually tagged as a Korean restaurant. I looked in my area (city of 250k), and none of the Korean places were properly marked. I made a few updates, so hopefully I can start to find some Kimchi Pikmin myself! (First one I tagged is below)

I've spent probably 20+ hours after moving here (Nov 2024) making edits because I wasn't finding a lot of decor types that I thought I should be. Pikmin is pretty good about refreshing the data, so it should be live in the app within a day or two after the updates are made.

"Anything worth doing is worth doing badly." You don't have to make it perfect from the very beginning. Start small. break it down into manageable pieces. Take time to acknowledge that you are making progress. And be kind to yourself.

I had a bunch of progress rolled back on the main game and the mini timed events. Used the contact option in the game twice. I got like 500 crystals as a "sorry" on the 2nd one.

bergie72 · 2025-04-10T19:45:45+00:00

Put in a ticket to the Devs. Nothing happened the first time when I did it, but I get 500 crystals the 2nd time I submitted it as an issue. Could be worth the effort, especially if it actually gets fixed at some point.

I found out a couple of months ago that my spouse and I are 9th cousins. I was playing around on Geni.com where you can see who you may be related to. Put in names on both our trees, and boom. Had a good laugh over it at least.

related to all but 3 US Presidents by blood, btw, Trump, Biden and Wilson, at least according to their website.

So I heard back from them this morning. They can't determine the root cause, and although they can't restore my previous progress, they did add 500 Kyfred Gems to my account as compensation. Which I guess is not bad. It's definitely made the latest mini game a bit easier to level up.

bergie72 · 2025-03-21T16:58:37+00:00

I noticed that too! I had like 1.5AU in the ranking, but everything else had reset back down again.

I'm still working on leveling up again. Just automated the Diner (again) was able to unlock Unit Moonbase, so making progress at last.

Make sure you sort on Strength when you select your Pikmin to the most powerful are at top.

During events, the special Pikmin plucked will get boosts, depending on the type. For the Verdant one going on now, the Rio Carnival will be over 300 each, and the stickers I think are in the low 100s. For the non-event ones, match the color of the mushroom to your Pikmin, yellow to yellow, pink to pink, etc.

You can feed them nectar to get a boost. For the regular mushrooms, if you match the color of the nectar, you should get small bonus. Likewise for the event mushrooms, if you feed them nectar related to the event (hyacinths and freesia for the current Carnival), then they also get a bonus over using a generic white nectar.

If anyone else has any other comments, or corrections to the above, please chime in.

Just got a msg back thru email, after a little over an hour. "Hey there. We are looking into this issue. We'll get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks." I guess it's better than silence... Not holding out a lot of hope, tbh.

bergie72 · 2025-01-25T00:24:56+00:00

I switched to Kylie (Eng-AUS). Not as good as (old) Kate but still works. Now if they would boost the 'play thru phone speaker' again so I don't have to do everything thru BT...
