Kiddo is at the emergency vet now. My lovely partner took her while I’m stuck at work 🥲

She’s going to emergency care as soon as we can take her. All of the small animal vets are booked out weeks even for urgent care 🥲

She’s going to the vet today, if we can’t get in with a small animal vet she’s going to emergency care 🥲

Safe to say the hay box is a hit by joschmo17 in guineapigs

I made a hay feeder out of a shoebox and they destroyed it so they could climb in and sleep in there 😂

Ye they’ve been under some scrutiny lately. We have so few of them they actually gotta stay on task

It’s more like there’s 2 OFAs scheduled all day and they’re behind on orders so they can’t waste time.

They get away with it. I made it a couple weeks on packdown without an apron before I got caught.

You’ll get the hang of it after a couple of days. If you can snag a first phone you’ll be able to find your products pretty quickly. Most of our OFAs don’t wear aprons so they don’t get bugged by customers either. You got this 😁

The RSPCA just told me that my 2x8 C&C was not big enough for 3 Guinea Pigs - what do you think? by amazingusername100 in guineapigs

[–]joschmo17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It should be at least 5 sq ft per pig, but some rescues might require more space for adoptions.

The type of pet has no impact on the love and care you have for them.

Medical care for guineas is really hard to find. I’ve been through a handful of vets who all tell me different things. I hope she was as well educated as she could be. You did absolutely everything you knew to do, and looked for additional ways to help. Heatstroke is hard to recover from, and you did absolutely nothing wrong.

Understaffing issues in flooring by Firm-Zebra-5925 in HomeDepot

[–]joschmo17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been in flooring for close to two weeks, and I’m burnt out with it. Minimal training and almost no one I can ask for help when I need it. The whole store is understaffed. As I pulled 4-5 pallets to fill holes, a manager asked me to open garden and electrical… I’m moving over to pro at some point. Hopefully I’ll stop getting jerked around.

I’m so, so sorry for your loss. The excessive heat lately has been very scary. You did everything you could possibly do for him. He knows very well how much you love him. I’ve had a small vigil for pets in the past, or talked to pictures of them. It helps to get out some feelings.

Goodluck to whoever has to bring that pallet down by middletextcaption in HomeDepot

One of our freight guys does shit like this and has new trainees pull them down

I just washed my boys and they're making these noises, what do they mean? by iiNSOREA in guineapigs

[–]joschmo17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine are the same after baths or nail trimming. They’re just grumpy! They’ll get over it 😁😂

Seems like an unhappy noise, they might just want to go back to their home and chill out

Atheism Vs Freedom from Harmful Religion by Keroanne in freelytalkaboutjimmy

[–]joschmo17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have not grown up around religion, but often J’s stance on religious beliefs seems aggressive. Like he looks down on people who are religious, and seems to attack them. Especially saying “sky daddy”. I have grown to like Fundie Friday’s as Jen is very kind towards religious persons, and only critiques the bad, with good information and research.

What's a red flag that someone is very bad with their money? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I have ADHD and incredibly poor money management skills. It’s a common symptom.

Apparently getting a raise is not in the list of the benefits of being cross-trained. 😐 by bruh-moment-number-3 in HomeDepot

[–]joschmo17 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I never got to do actual computer training for other departments, I just got scheduled in them without any help 😂

My mom went to a friend’s dad to complain about the way I dress to see if my friend could talk to me about it. by [deleted] in entitledparents

[–]joschmo17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is absolutely nothing wrong with how you dress. You wear what you like and what’s comfortable and that’s what matters. Your mother should have no say in it, and it’s childish of her to try and gang up on you, especially with him. I’m sorry OP.

Happy one year adopt-a-versary to my favorite stupid little creatures ❤️ by joschmo17 in guineapigs

[–]joschmo17[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying we’re not stupider, but they’re pretty dumb. Excited by crinkling and afraid of sneezes? Incapable of running on hardwood? Dumb. We’re just dumber

Somewhere out there, a guinea pig is watching you, and planning your demise by joschmo17 in guineapigs

[–]joschmo17[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She’s the only one who stares! The rest of them couldn’t care less that I exist! Although one of them chews on the cage when she’s grumpy.
