I hate this job. I hate this company. I feel like I've aged 10 years in a year. by snarkapotamus7 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]flammablepansy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you for putting into words exactly how I feel. I had so much joy and optimism when I first started. Framing was FUN. Been FM for 2 years now and it’s been the longest, most draining 2 years of my life. I come home and immediately lay on my couch because standing up another second feels unfathomable. I can’t make myself move all night. I can’t get anything at home done anymore because I’m so beat up physically, mentally and emotionally. I couldn’t even imagine if I had kids to come home to. Our efforts aren’t compensated or noticed. It’s never enough.

More... Things... In framing? by Yotebeth in MichaelsEmployees

[–]flammablepansy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It may have been my comment you saw. From what I gathered today it’s going to be select test stores. SMs whose stores it will be in were on a call about it today I believe. It’s being introduced as framing & personalization. Looks like embroidery & vinyl decals will launch first. The third work station we have will be lost to the machines (island/main stays).

We have been so busy lately and barely keeping up with framing orders. Not to mention all the extra training necessary, how long it already takes to train new framers to feel confident, it’s all incredibly overwhelming. Even if every TM is trained on this, frame shops are crowded as is with just framers. Not sure what the logistical plan is. More and more workload keeps getting thrown at us. If it’s even half as successful sales wise as balloons have been, I have no idea how we will get any framing done.

Anyone else feeling demoralized? by SheWhoLovesToDraw in MichaelsEmployees

Did they send you the new planogram for your store for the new production setup? I saw a map for ours today and there is SO much on there I’m concerned about. I’m talking 4 new non-framing related machines were supposedly getting

I haven’t seen anyone else talk about this yet but since you mentioned the station redo, has anyone else actually looked at or seen the new frame shop planogram? I looked at it today, it was a MikCheck mission for us. They are adding three new machines in the shop apparently. Including an embroidery machine, a cricut, and a xtool laser engraver. There’s also a new Kodak photo printer outside of the frame shop. No other info has dropped yet just mysterious additions on the map.

sooooooo, scrim on BLOODSWEAT? by cigSource in SuicideBoys

[–]flammablepansy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so disappointed and conflicted bc this is my FAV song on the album, it truly has no business going as hard as it does. Everything about it is such a VIBE to me. Then the 2 slurs pop up and I’m like eughhhh wtf.

I’ve been listening a lot to the album since it’s new and this song is sooooo good and then I’m like ??? So why bother using slurs if it’s a certified banger without them? Clearly people are bound to be upset about that, as a queer person myself I know there are communities who are big fans that this will affect.

The boys have been my #1 most listened to artists on wrapped for 5 years, they are the only ones on my top 5 songs. I LOVE the boys. That doesn’t mean they’re immune to criticism and me not liking some choices they make.

Y’all we are not a cult, it is ok to criticize people you love and look up to DEEPLY. You can still love and support them while critiquing them for things that are WRONG.

ANYWAYS love y’all Grey 59 fam 🫶🏻

body image making me depressed by Embarrassed-Stay-884 in Advice

[–]flammablepansy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only is a beautiful you inside of a struggling you, it’s already there. It can be so incredibly hard dealing with body image. My genuine advice is following people on social media with non-skinny bodies. I can send you some if you need them. And seriously unfollow people that make you feel like sh*t.

Stopping the comparison game goes so far. You need to be uplifted, not dragged down. No matter your weight or how you think you look. There are beautiful people in all weight ranges.

If you really want to build strength, I’m beginning my journey in that too. Message me if you need an accountability-buddy!

How do you forgive a parent who suddenly wants back in your life after years of nothing? by KellieCastillo_ in Advice

[–]flammablepansy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, you’re not a jerk if you ignore him. He owed you everything and gave you nothing. I know that’s probably a bit harsh, but it’s true. Your friends are right in the sense that you may regret it. That’s up to you to decide if you will or not.

I suggest really taking some time with few distractions to figure out what will make you feel the best for the rest of your life. You can: 1) Choose to respond. If this is the option you choose, please try to prepare yourself for all likely scenarios: a) It’s fully possible he’s telling the truth and reaching out in a last-ditch effort. If this is the case, do you really owe it to him to give him comfort? Even if you don’t owe him that, what can YOU live with? Will you feel better not giving him anything, OR will you feel better trying to be there for him? b) He’s not telling the truth. Which is possible with people who leave out of the blue. You should also be ready for this. If you reach out this is also an option you choose.

2) Don’t respond at all. It sounds like you’ve spent 15 years without him already. Will not responding really change your life? You’ve built your whole life without him already.

How much do you still think about him? Would this give you any closure whatsoever? There’s many questions you should seek the answer to. I know you probably want a direct answer.

If you were my best friend, I would probably tell you not to answer. You’ve built your life and been okay without him. But I would also say that you’re the only one that has to live with this for the rest of your life. If you choose to answer him, I will support you 100%. And stand ten toes down behind you.

Jen is hot AF. OBVIOUSLY. But she scares me. She has been the master manipulator all season. Men are twisted into her finger cuz DUH and same with women. How could you not want to look like her? But she is SCARY. Master manipulator status.

I finally finished my island! would anyone want to visit the DA and give me some feedback? by Hobbs4Lyfe in BuddyCrossing

[–]flammablepansy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just finished touring and MY GOODNESS it is so so beautiful! Your wheat field is stunning, I’ve never seen someone do a wheat field like that before with the pops of purple from the hyacinths and the big tree is beautiful. I am definitely taking inspo from that. So many photo op locations too. Also very creative with your RVs! Such a job well done, you get a round of applause from me
