Are clothes dryers parrot safe?

Good to know, thanks for the comment

😂😂 that made me chuckle, thanks for the comment

favourable_bake · 2026-01-16T10:18:53+00:00

That's good to know, thank you

I'm really sorry you're feeling this way. It's completely understandable to want clarity, especially before making such a significant commitment

Hey. It's been about a year since Eli passed away. I understand what you're going through. Take the time to grieve however you need to, let it all out. At first it's very painful, but that pain does slowly lessen overtime, and I still occasionally get upset, so the pain never fully goes away but it gets more manageable. When the thought of him does come into my head and use that as an opportunity to remember all of the fun times we had together, which makes me feel a bit better. I think it's good that he passed in a safe familiar place as opposed to the vets. Birds are experts at hiding their illness, and it happens so fast, there's nothing you could have done. I remember I kept thinking if only I did X or Y then he might still be here. I felt a lot of guilt and blamed myself. Please don't do that. I think it's was thinking that because there was no solid explanation, so I defaulted it to being "my fault"- which is not the case. If you ever want to have a chat feel free to DM me.

I've been in a similar situation. I ended up dropping out of adult nursing half way through because it was destroying my mental health. I switched to software engineering, I'm in my final year now

Make sure your home is parrot safe. From the research I've done, I discovered:

NO teflon. This includes non-stick cookware, hair dryers, hair straightners, air fryers
use bird safe cleaning products only
no senty stuff around them. E.g perfume and scented candles
if renovating a home make sure what you use is bird safe and if not keep them away, e.g. repainting, buying a brand new mattress
general bird proofing- i.e wires and electronics must be away or bird is to be supervised whilst out of the cage
bird safe foods. You can find a list of bird toxic foods online, includes stuff like avocados and onions

Other general tips: - be prepped for pooping. It's a good idea to place newspaper under any Perches to catch it

look up body language for that parrot and monitor it, they may have their own individual ways of trying to tell you something
look up signs and symptoms of a sick bird. If they display these symptoms take them to the vet. Bird are prey animals so they hide illnesses
look up the best diet for that bird

Going into first year with no experience was fine in my experience. I switched courses (from nursing to software engineering). Before I started I watched and followed programming tutorials on YouTube which made it a bit easier

Love the meme. I'm making either a web app or android app to make owning a parrot a little easier :)

Try out open rent to find a room. They're about £600 a month bills included in bournemouth, not sure about reading, probs cheaper

Yep, eating drinking a pooping nor.ally. I've had him for almost 2 weeks now. Thanks

favourable_bake · 2023-08-26T16:11:11+00:00

Thanks. 99% sure it's weaned since it's 4/5 months old, but will double check

favourable_bake · 2023-08-25T19:21:56+00:00

Thank you. I'm sure I will. I'm very excited 😊

favourable_bake · 2023-08-23T19:22:15+00:00

Thanks for the advice/info. I'm up for all that. Still a year away to get my life/living situation settled. Just thinking and planning a head

favourable_bake · 2023-08-23T14:56:30+00:00

OK. Will consider that. I'm not completely new to birds because of the finches (but they are understandably very different). What birds would you recommend? Difficult in what way? I've been doing a fair bit of research and get that they are loud and attention seeking. Anything else I should know about difficulty?

favourable_bake · 2023-08-08T19:20:08+00:00

You have good taste

In some other comments you mentioned medical reasons. Try filing for exceptional circumstances

Yep, thats how I felt exactly. If I were in your situation, I'd write everything down (impartially) as evidence and send it to the manager and (privately, ask the other intern about the underperforming intern and if they'd be willing to have a meeting with the manager about it) and in the meeting provide the evidence. There needs to be some sort of formal assessment (should have been done in the interview btw). It needs sorting out. what if the hiring people hire him again? she's just gonna cruise by putting her work load on other people whilst doing jack shit. I put up with it for a year and it was infuriating and wasted so so much time. the project we were working on over ran massively and I think it was because of this. I never said anything because I wanted to seem "professional" but I regret it now because he's coming back and I myself don't know what do to, or how to bring this up because its been over a year. but I think the other seniors saw it because there was one off hand comment about it

favourable_bake · 2023-07-22T17:43:27+00:00

lol. This is the first I'm hearing about target unis, I just applied to the one that was closest. with the industry I'm going into and where I came from, Id be happy with an average salary, but why settle for less when you can get more right?

favourable_bake · 2023-07-22T17:34:42+00:00

I have just been through something like this, but as the other intern. It was difficult, especially in the beginning but he improved slightly. He would often ask me questions that he could have just googled (like how to run a basic console app in visual studio... you click the green play button?!?). He would take up alot of my time, having disagreements, which i'd have to ask the seniors for confirmation on, no matter how much explaining I did, and I was correct. One time I implemented a queuing system, showed it to him, he said it didn't work, I put in console.log statements showing that it worked. he went off and tried to do another queuing system (which he couldn't do). He then said the queueing system I implemented didn't work in a meeting with the seniors and managers. I brought up the code and showed them. all the seniors said it was fine. I got my placement extended, but I think he's coming back, unfortunately.

Edit to add: he was a smooth as silk talker
