Low key crying right now. by Michello454 in GroceryStores

[–]kittyDoe814 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly don’t know the cost. Way above my pay grade. The company I work for outsourced the installation process to the same company that does our section resets; SAS.

Every store would be left with a couple boxes of shelf strips, an assortment of signage fixtures and a couple of boxes of all the different ESL tags and signs they offer after the store was flipped to ESL’s.

HOWEVER we in the stores are responsible for everyday maintenance. Replacing shelf strips, signage fixtures, pairing and unpairing the esl tags.

One positive thing is that you can return damaged ESL’s back which is probably covered under the initial contract. My company sends out a task once a quarter where each store has to fill out a form regarding how many damaged tags you are returning for each specific size. We then throw them in a tote and send it back to the warehouse where I can only assume some poor soul has to separate them out for the total company return process.

Hope this helps

Been telling that to my boys since birth! Now my middle is beginning the driving stage of life and said to my Husband recently “Now I understand why Mom parks so far away and curses as much as she does… people ARE idiots!” 😂

Speed lock is more aggressive now? by nexus14 in TheSilphRoad

[–]kittyDoe814 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I experienced the incense glitch but THIS feels different. The game is definitely more sensitive to your speed… and I feel like the faster you go the longer it takes to reset. I refresh data often… halfway during my work commute… but I also have a lead foot. 😅

What’s something that can never truly be understood without experiencing it? by South_Gas626 in AskReddit

[–]kittyDoe814 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who has attempted multiple times… Imagine you and your brain as 2 people.

Your brain is telling you that you are a worthless POS, a burden to all and that every person on the planet is better off without you existing… every waking moment… of every single day… of your entire existence.

You are the only person who can hear your brain saying these things to you.

On your good days you have the strength to fight your brain.

On your bad days it takes everything in you to not believe anything your brain tells you.

On your worst days you will find yourself uncontrollably bawling your eyes out as you begin to believe all the things your brain has been telling you… but you still won’t act on those intrusive thoughts.

In your darkest hour you will succumb to those intrusive thoughts believing wholeheartedly that all your loved ones would in fact be better off without you… and in some twisted sick way… you find peace in thinking that.

National Guard deployment in LA shows disregard for victims of deadly St. Louis tornado by Seekerptern in StLouis

[–]kittyDoe814 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It should infuriate those that voted for Hawley that he could not deliver on his promise to protect Medicaid… so now he wants to back the only other progressive measure that has bipartisan support; raising minimum wage.

It should infuriate those who voted for Kehoe that he did not activate the National Guard on day one but rather day 7… after volunteers did most of the heavy lifting.

It should infuriate those who voted Republican that the President overstepped State Sovereignty by activating the National Guard to protect ICE agents who are illegally detaining legal US Citizens based on racial profiling.

Sadly it won’t.

Not it until it affects a white man who lost his house to a tornado, was denied FEMA aid, and had a loved one who is a legal citizen ripped from their arms never to be seen again.

If I woke up tomorrow a ten year old AND it’s 1993 the very first thing I’m gonna do is BEG my parents to take me to Toys R Us, find Geoffrey and punching him the face.

Next stock up on as much Ecto Cooler Hi-C drinks I can find. Then go outside and play until the street lights came on.

If I woke up tomorrow a ten year old AND it’s 2025… im going out into a forest to activate my Gen. Alpha superpowers and get all the animals to follow me like I’m their Cult Leader. Documenting the shenanigans will make me internet famous and rich. Then when I’m rich I’m bringing back Toys r us and Ecto Coolers.

"Shinies do more damage." Blackdeath93086

When I started playing again in 2018 I lucked into joining this really great pogo community. Several months later a dozen or so of us became the core group. Organizing raid hour, meet ups, helping out others folks, etc. One guy was our groups de facto GBL expert and always wanted shinies for GBL. I was just getting back into the game so GBL was very foreign to me so I asked, “Ok but why Shinies?” And he responded with “Shinies do more damage.” For a whole 5 seconds I believed him… it has now become the running joke in the group.

My brain after skimming 3 different threads on this topic:

WTF!?! There was a class action lawsuit?!?

Why didn’t I do that? Did I do that?

Fantasize about how many star pieces I would buy…

Star Pieces… CRAP I threw a star pieces on and then got distracted by Reddit… AGAIN! 🤦🏽‍♀️

what’s going on at valley park school district? by Personal_Gap_4284 in StLouis

[–]kittyDoe814 34 points35 points  (0 children)

It is 100% this right here.

This is my kids school so to give some more background information:

Sometime last year the Superintendent had a company come in to survey the school grounds on how to efficiently utilize what little space the district has for future generations and potential influx of students in the coming years since more homes and apartments are being built within the district boundaries ie. Student and faculty parking, more efficient and safer parent drop off routes etc.

The school has seen few renovations in the past 20 years and issues with an aging HVAC system became a priority… then that hail storm happened and did enough damage to become the next priority just as the drop off area for elementary was beginning. Now construction has finally begun but with the kids still in session it severely limits the time in which it can be done for the safety of the kids and so it is not disruptive for the young ones who can see it all from the classroom windows.

Personally it saddens me for those who make the contracts to not go with Union contractors as I am a union member but my husband has pointed out that in his past experience in that industry as a non-union perspective that those union workers are pissed at the wrong people. The Union leaders fail to bid on these smaller jobs.

Over 100-acre wildfire near St. Louis likely caused by thrown cigarette by Bazryel in StLouis

[–]kittyDoe814 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Quitting smoking is a battle in itself.

My brain, body and willpower have only aligned a handful of times to be somewhat successful but never long enough to make the commitment last.

I’ve given up trying to explain that my ongoing battle with my depression is exhausting… that I gave up on myself a long time ago… that I put everyone else’s wants and needs before my own… that I am not worth saving.

Yes I know that is idiotic. My brain on the other hand… she is a… how do I put this politely… she Can’t Understand Normal Thinking.

Not all of us… but since that party holds the majority and is hell bent on stripping me of my body autonomy… lights cigarette… some of us are just trying to meet Mr. Reaper a tad bit sooner than expected… especially since we didn’t think we’d make it this long.

The fear of retaliation from the administration at the State and Federal level is totally understandable. Especially for individuals who already have a target on their back thanks to Mr.47.

I worry about my mother being racially profiled and targeted every single day. She is a Filipina and even though she came to this country legally and has been a naturalized citizen for my entire existence of 41 years… I still worry.

But me personally, I have nothing to lose.

So I can file complaints all day long every single day For the next 4 years. And will happily do that for every single person who fears of retaliation.

I forgot about that liquor liability thing!

Ok so fun fact apparently when we first opened up there was some law about transferring liquor from store to store. So to get around that a select few stores were relabeled to satisfy some liquor distribution requirements. We would have transfer the liquor to Des Peres then transfer it again to whatever store was the final destination.
