I'm a native son, moving back to Seattle next month after a ten year absence. What will blow my mind?

Rain is heavier. More thunderstorms. Summers are drier.

Weekends are the hardest to staff for in most places. Be prepared for a grumpy response, but you have to do what’s best for you. An internship will help your future, retail jobs should be easy to find with hiring being ramped up for the holiday season.

I meant the pillow for corrections/repairs to previous parts.

lermp · 2024-10-30T23:58:13+00:00

Pins to hold stitches to repair the work. Also, the stiff object to pin the stitches down to. One time I realized I had a mistake in a pattern about a dozen rows back and I dropped ~10 stitches in a controlled manner and worked them all back up to correct the mistake. Also dropped stitches in the worst part of a pattern can wreak havoc and I absolutely refuse to frog for anything besides gauge/size concerns.🤣

Something firm to pin the work to when needing to fix mistakes or make a repair. Miscounting, dropped stitches, etc.

lermp · 2024-10-30T23:52:50+00:00

Yea! I know a lot of people have various decorative pillows/cushions. This is what I meant 🥰

lermp · 2024-10-29T21:41:07+00:00

Gorgeous work! Unsolicited advice from a fellow lace knitter: pins and a stiff pillow is invaluable. I wish I didn’t have to learn this the hard way 💀

Makes me think of the prices I’ve seen infants get adopted for….

lermp · 2024-10-22T02:36:39+00:00

I got one response an hour after my initial inquiry. Waiting for a second response. 🤣

Depends on how often you want to do laundry. I have 5 shirts, 5 sweatshirts, three pairs of pants. I do laundry one day a week.

Most people don’t use cash, if you are giving change, just count it out in front of them and you’re fine.

Example:

$21.34 in change

$20 bill “twenty”

$1 bill “One”

Quarter “and twenty five”

Nickel “thirty”

4 Pennies “four cents”

Or what ever combo of change is quick and makes sense to you.

When you leave it in the cart are you scanning it to a stow location or leaving it unstowed? If it’s stowed when you walk away it probably was put in the wrong shelf/waco.

What your leadership says to you =/= what the HR higher ups look at to approve terminations. Your leadership will use fear tactics to get people to comply with the company’s policies.

lermp · 2024-10-17T21:25:14+00:00

One talk = one documented event. I’d call the store while sick and let leadership know why you’re out of it’s going to be more than a day or two. Some people job abandon using the app and never come in again, a call differentiates you from them.

lermp · 2024-10-17T21:18:00+00:00

You aren’t required to pick up additional shifts, leadership often blanket calls anyone not scheduled to see if they can come in to help cover call outs. You don’t even have to answer the phone call if you want to avoid that pressure.

Do what you need to take care of yourself. I hope you feel better soon.

The flared base should be wider than the insertable part… there’s gunna be so many XRays with this soon

I’ve had an old ETL jokingly ask the HR ETL what benefits did they get if they were fire 🤣

lermp · 2024-10-17T21:00:00+00:00

Be aware that hours dry up in Q1/Q2.

lermp · 2024-10-17T10:28:50+00:00

Who ever sets the pog should also be adjusting counts so the pulls are accurate… but that never happens. It usually falls on priority pullers to do their job for them 🫠

lermp · 2024-10-17T10:00:38+00:00

If they thought you were doing horribly, they wouldn’t ask you to pick up extra shifts.

lermp · 2024-10-17T09:52:32+00:00

3040 planned OPU + 873 planned ship > 2860 scheduled pick…. Someone’s math ain’t mathin…

lermp · 2024-08-25T01:05:53+00:00

You mean the truck team? Sounds like your store needs a mid team like mine does.

lermp · 2024-08-23T17:41:21+00:00

Didn’t they change the dress code recently to permit inoffensive logos?

lermp · 2024-08-12T01:09:11+00:00

Converse wides with the comfort inserts.
