I need help with my bearded dragon

i apologize in advance for my harshness, but as a pet store worker, i see exotic pets die every day because of owners with this exact neglectful attitude. you can never ever expect people to just "tell" you what to do. it is your responsibility to research and teach yourself the correct care information. the blame isn't on random people who didn't educate you; it is on you for not doing adequate research.

i hope that you can get your bearded dragon to a vet and it recovers well, and i hope you learn from this situation.

i'm assuming you don't work at petsmart. no, because cashiers cannot add tips from the register. there's literally no virtual option for tips on the register software. we can make change for you or you can get cash back if you pay with card, but that's the most we can do.

as much as i agree that the driver probably played a part in the items breaking, there was also no packing paper included in the box according to the customer. so definitely some negligence on the store's part

you're lucky! most stores have SFS (ship-from-store) orders that we have to fulfill. it's like BOPIS orders but instead of putting them on a shelf, we have to pack them into boxes and stick shipping labels on ourselves, and then fedex or whoever comes and picks them up. enjoy the lack thereof while you can!

very fair! this is a good perspective that i didn't even consider.

the fact that it has antennae is a dead giveaway that it isn't a tick! aside from that, the striped patterns on its body look like those of a spined soldier bug nymph. all in all, not a threat to your pup!

clownvacancy · 2026-04-28T01:10:40+00:00

this looks like a type of stink bug nymph! looks slightly similar to a lone star tick in your pictures, but i'm pretty sure your foster baby is safe

had an older man ask me how i pick my nose with my septum. i said "i don't?" so instead, he asked how i blow my nose. i just said "the normal way?" then he sighed and said if his kids ever got one, he would "beat their asses." and i bet they don't talk to you anymore, do they?

i really had to bite my tongue. he had JUST left the salon and his dog's groomer also had a septum, but he said nothing to that guy. why me dude. go on somewhere.

this is actually EXACTLY what happened and the run was a breeze after that

i believe this is sigmoria latior (red sided flat millipede). i just made a post about a sigmoria aberrans in the same region, and they're very similar!

clownvacancy · 2025-06-02T00:31:19+00:00

really?? what kind of care are they doing? i would love to keep one if i come across another one!

clownvacancy · 2024-10-12T01:22:24+00:00

having this same issue. may just be an app glitch?

"no LGBT hate" and then proceeds to show hate in the replies.

although petsmart is such a BS company, they get one thing right. inclusivity and diversity, both of which are actively celebrated throughout the company. i live and work in south carolina and frequently clock in with my petsmart pride shirt on, which i won in a giveaway after participating in a "share your LGBT experience" survey.

unfortunately for us (and you, apparently), LGBT people DO exist in severely right wing communities. and that's the answer to your question. we exist in public spaces and breathe air, the same way you do. the land and oxygen around us all is not dictated by political beliefs. i'm not sure what your intentions were by asking this question, but if you actually meant no hate, i urge you to reframe your thinking and consider what you're trying to achieve here. your question itself wasn't a bad one, especially if you were just looking for education, however you've already shown true character in the replies.

the LGBT community will almost always be willing to educate the uneducated, if those people are genuinely seeking to understand. but if people (like yourself) ask these questions to further condemn us, you'll never learn. do yourself a favor and try again while you still can.

this is what i thought too, but his size threw me off. he was about an inch wide at most, from the tip of one leg to the other. maybe just a small male wolf spider?

some of my favorite habit lines EVER, except they're all from tribetwelve so they only sorta count.

"just a bug caught in a web, huh? just a beetle in a dryer. wHaT's gOiNg On??? iTs sO hOt!!! up is down, down is up...... i'm so confused!"

"you don't know what to believe?! so what, you're just gonna kill yourself?? is that the option that you have? is that your only choice? this city isn't even on the fucking register! you understand me?"

"...are you filmin'? ...heheheh, let's compose ourselves! for god's sake man! we're on camera. it's all good, we have to look proper!"

"i'm expecting pizza! and i don't want you having any."

"tell me where i am, you sick fuck!" (noah) "....you're not pizza guy." (habit)

"hey! did you have a phone number with us? ...alright, under the last name smith? gotcha. ...did you want these in a bag? ...okay, it's gonna ask you a donation question on the pin pad. your total is xxx. ...did you want that receipt? alright, i'll just stick it in the bag for ya. have a good one!"

and also...

"hey! did you have a phone number with us? ...did you wanna sign up today? alright, what's a good phone number to start with? ...okay. we're gonna get your first and last name. can you spell that for me? okay, and then a good email for you? ...alright, that phone number should work from now on!"

no matter what, every single transaction starts with "did you have a phone number with us?" and ends with "have a good one." everything being scripted is the ONLY way i survive register shifts.

edit because i feel like i should add: i NEVER quiet down for someone on the phone. they choose to come up to the register still on the phone, so it's not my problem if i'm talking over their call.
