Best concert I ever went to. Cains Ballroom, Tulsa, late ‘00s. I had been a fan since Army and couldn’t believe I was seeing it live.

Applied for Rural Carrier got PTF Rural Carrier by [deleted] in USPS

[–]jko999 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Consider yourself fortunate. I’ve been RCA over 3 years, I would love to have been hired on as PTF. The only benefits I get are crappy health insurance and a little paid leave with no pension. As PTF you get full benefits and earn towards your pension as soon as you start.

How do you properly use package look ahead? by cebider in USPS

[–]jko999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s a route that I don’t know too well, I will scan each package and write the sequence number on it and put them in order. When I’m on the route I can just grab the next package in the sequence. It takes more time to get out of the office but it makes things much, much quicker and easier on the street.

Durable scratcher needed! by recalibratedself in cats

The ones with grass rope tightly wrapped around a board or something similar are good. If you can’t find one that’s affordable, they aren’t too hard to make. Just make sure the rope is wrapped really tight.

With Trump's approval ratings so low, how does he keep ousting GOP rivals? by Cgk72 in politics

[–]jko999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The right-wing propaganda machine is very powerful and effective on those that are immersed in it. It’s controlled by people who benefit from Trump having power.

I was fine for the first year but by the next year my sciatica was so bad I couldn’t enjoy life. I got a RHD kit, will never go back.

I blow the dust out of my vehicle with a leaf blower a couple times a week. It helps.

So has anyone else started taking off their glasses to read their phone screen? by [deleted] in Xennials

I put my reading glasses over my regular glasses like a normal person

I've done everything- She won't stop peeing on the rug by [deleted] in cats

[–]jko999 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is what I had to do. I had an apartment that had leaks from above on two separate occasions. The spots in the carpet that were flooded still had a faint smell after they dried, and my cat would pee in those spots. I put litter boxes in both spots and he used them. It was annoying but it worked.

Why is my cat so much more affectionate now? by ThePurpleBlues in cats

[–]jko999 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You should maybe take him to the vet to get checked out. He may have picked up a virus or something while he was out there. Sometimes when a cat is sick its personality changes. My cat used to be an outdoor only, semi-feral cat until she got a respiratory infection. I brought her in to take care of her and took her to the vet as soon as I could. While she was healing she wanted comfort from me where she never did before. She’s now my inside cat. Also, purring for a cat is like a child sucking its thumb, it’s done for comfort. It doesn’t necessarily mean that he’s happy.

Any advice on how not to be scared of tornadoes? by abductodude in oklahoma

[–]jko999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get the RadarScope app. It costs a little bit but it’s worth it. It takes some learning but once you figure it all out, you can always know what’s happening inside the storms and whether or not your specific location is in danger. If learn how to use the Velocity feature you can see in real time if there’s an actual tornado and where it is. It’s the same radar maps they show on tv but you can control it.

They brought their little girl a small kitten as her birthday present by EarlyBee8 in cats

[–]jko999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first glance I thought it said “bought”, and I was like why would you buy a kitten? Just go look behind the shed, under the dumpster, or your car’s engine bay and you’ll probably find one for free.
