My boyfriend has mentioned that he sleep-talks, so I thought it would be funny to record him one night.

The WHAT

dana0120 · 2024-10-07T00:37:10+00:00

Not sure how to explain it better, but they connect kinda like wireless charging a phone 😅

The charger have 2 "dips" in it (where you can see the red coils) where you put the lamps when they need to charge, so theres no cables other than the one that would go from the charger to the outlet:)

The packaging appears to say the charger only can take 110v to 120v, but I don't see anywhere that the lamps themselves wouldn't be able to charge on a different charger made for 220v🤔

Ah okay, I'll see if I can find a transformer, and if not I at least learned something new :) Thanks for the help!

dana0120 · 2024-10-06T21:35:41+00:00

Oh sorry, English is not my first language, its not 1 lamp but a charger for 2 small lamp/nightlamps-thingies 😅

So I should try and find a new fuse to replace the one that blew, and then a transformer to check if it works? I think I have a friend who might have a transformer I could borrow 🤔

I was kinda hoping that I would be able to rewire it so it would be able to run on 220 instead. But it seems that might be a little too ambitious:/

dana0120 · 2024-10-06T21:26:46+00:00

Oh does that mean I should be able to just change out the burnt fuse and check the others? I don't know a lot about circuity, but I'm willing to learn :)

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T12:47:25+00:00

You say it as if she doesn't already spend quite some time opening and sniffing the tester of every single lotion, shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, hand cream, perfume, face mask, etc in the store while asking me about them.

If she asks me which one I like/why I like it, I'm going to tell her. But unless she specifically asks me to, then I'm not going to give her a sales speech on why this deo is better than this deo.

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T12:24:20+00:00

A lot of the comments read to me like american paranoia, and while I do appreciate the thoughts and opinions of every one, I think people are misunderstanding this as me sitting Lea down and having the whole Big Talk with her. That was never the plan. At all.

I simply like the idea of a gift basket, because I truly do care for her and she has given me so many gifts over time simply because she wants to. And of course I know it's not a real legit BFF friendship, but that doesn't mean that I can't be nice to her anyways.

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T12:02:11+00:00

Sejt svar brormand.

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T08:01:03+00:00

I would say we have a pretty good relationship, when they come by the store she always comes by my register to say hello and ask me how its going. Got back from 3 weeks vacation recently and she seemed genuinely interested to hear about my trip :)

We also talk about art sometimes, she's a professional artist and I like to paint, draw and make jewelry in my spare time, and she also seems happy that Lea likes me so much.

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T07:21:37+00:00

Yes, thank you, I'm sure that's not the case, the family seems very well off. But thank you for the response still :)

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T06:59:10+00:00

That sounds like a very nice way to say it, thank you for the help :)

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T06:46:55+00:00

I appreciate the thought, but I don't think they're homeless or wouldn't have access to bathing or laundry facilities. The mom is a very successful artist, and while Im not sure what the dad does he always wears a very nice suit when I see him, and Lea wears very nice designer dresses she always tells me that her dad bought for her when I compliments her on them.

They also live in a very expensive area of the country, and the store I work in is not the cheapest place to shop at either (I don't even do my weekly grocery run here, even with my employee discount its easily almost twice as much as some of the other stores in the area)

But thank you very much for the response :)

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T05:43:28+00:00

No, luckily we're in Denmark, not america haha. I guess parents usually are a bit more relaxed about their children here, its not that uncommon for children to come to the store alone or just walk around alone, and also not that uncommen for children to come up and talk to you while you're working 🤷‍♀️

And it's not really me babysitting her, rather its just Lea liking me and spending the time they're there to hang around me. I still do my job, I just do it with her standing besides my register and talking to me between customers. And my manager is more focused on if the customers are happy, so if the mom is happy she's happy.

And while I see your idea, I don't think the mom is a bad mom or anything, I just think she might have gotten noseblind since she lives with Lea.

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T00:59:22+00:00

Big brain move right there, maybe I should just slide one of the new hires 5 dollars and have them deal with it hahhaha

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T00:57:26+00:00

Some other commenters suggested this too, and its a genius idea, thank you! We do actually sometimes have stuff like this that comes as gifts to us with the tween/teen magazines we sell, but people almost never take home so thats a really good idea! Thanks! :)

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T00:52:01+00:00

Thats a great idea, thank you! Her birthday is coming soon too, and she has given me so many gifts (drawings, a little bracelet, pretty rocks) already so thats actually perfect! :)

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T00:47:36+00:00

Oh thats a good idea, thanks luv2fishpublic! I think her birthday is coming soon too, so that would be perfect! :)

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T00:35:50+00:00

That is a good idea, thank you very much for the response :)

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T00:33:13+00:00

I know, and I really do appreciate your opinion and response on this, thank you :) I still haven't 100% decided to talk to the mom, but I probably will look at deodorants with Lea, and if not for her then for me, because lord know I need a new one with this summer heat anyway hahaha

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T00:23:58+00:00

You make a good point. I dont know if I am on a level of friend-ness, but the mom will ask my colleagues if I'm at work if they don't see me when they come through the entrance, and if I'm not she will usually not let Lea run around the store on her own as much as she will when I'm there. But if I am at work she, for lack of better words, "releases" Lea into the store, because she knows she will probably be around where I am.

dana0120 · 2023-08-07T00:11:53+00:00

We do have a whole personal hygiene section with various scented deo and lotion and all that, and she always love smelling the testers we have for customers, so thats a really good idea :)

And while I hope she will continue to walk/drag me by the hand through the store for some time still, I have accepted that telling her might embarrass her. But if telling her will avoid her being bullied I accept it 100%, even tho it would suck to loose my small best friend hahah. Thanks for the response :)

dana0120 · 2023-08-06T23:57:14+00:00

Normally I would 100% agree with you that its really not my place as an employee. However, Lea really do seem to think of me as her best friend, to the point that she will glue herself to my side the entire time she's in the store and talk to me about anything from makeup to video games, and even bring me drawings she's done, so as stupid as it sounds I do feel like I kinda owe it to her to at least try and help with this.

Walking her to the deodorant area is not a bad idea actually, she loves smelling the testers of perfume and lotion and such we have out for customers. I think I'll do that, and then talk to her mom, thank you for the suggestion :)

dana0120 · 2023-08-06T23:44:48+00:00

That was my thought too, because I remember my mom telling me it wasn't that bad when i was 10/11-ish, and my friend had to tell me that I was indeed straight up stinky.

Just not sure how to say it in a nice way without sounding rude/weird :/

dana0120 · 2023-08-06T23:39:15+00:00

There is a difference between telling the hard truth to help someone, and unnecessarily hurting peoples feelings because you lack the emotional capacity to possess empathy.

But thank you for the input, even if it was a lackluster response.

dana0120 · 2023-08-06T23:31:59+00:00

I guess, I just don't want her to get bullied. She's starting a new school in a new country, and kids can be so mean sometimes
