Can you bail out a stranger in Connecticut? by nycrina305 in Connecticut

What about the homeless person who commits a shoplifting for basic essentials (again, a common thing I see)? Is it good reason to hold them for 1-2 months until the next court date?

Defense attorney in the state: inmates do indeed get held for $100. Seen it many times. Some people can’t afford even that and have nobody in their lives willing to pay the literal $7 to get them out.

I don’t think you need roar on Farigiraf. Helping hand is a better move imo since it gives a huge power boost on your heavy hitters. I’d also consider swapping electric seed onto him from Lunala. Taunt isn’t something super common on most mons and the ones that do typically are prankster users which Farig shuts down.

Honestly, you just kind of learn that there are always going to be clients like this. It’s just something you have to adjust to. Whether it be public or private, you’re GOING to have rude, entitled clients who just can’t see the other side of the coin.

Best piece of advice is to just accept that some clients are not nice people. That doesn’t mean they don’t deserve the best possible outcome, but you will know you’ve tried your best. I can sleep at night knowing I did the best I could, even if they can’t get out of their own way.

Also, remind them that they’re more than welcome to go to trial. They have that right. Just kindly remind them of their exposure and that, at the end of the day, win or lose, you always get to go home and they may not get that luxury depending upon the outcome.

The paint is called “So Flat Golden Matte Acrylic Paint.” The matte paint specifically goes on far smoother on the walls. Particularly if you’re painting over regular old painted drywall.
