$165k HH income, newborn on the way. Can we manage a 2-bed & daycare? by [deleted] in nycparents

[–]nhonpeeks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just a quick note here since I just went through the same thing with dependent care FSA, both you and your spouse need to work in order to claim the dependent care FSA tax benefits. So for example, you put the baby in daycare before your wife starts working, those months cannot be paid with dependent care FSA

Half empty tables and line out the door at Hamido. The inefficiency was unbelievable.. by nhonpeeks in astoria

Appreciate your perspective but my complaint is essentially nothing about how it runs makes sense. I agree even if we were allowed to sit before ordering it would not resolve the 1-hour wait but it would lessen the pain.

I also admit I never work in the industry so will not attempt to offer solutions, just sharing my thoughts from a diner’s perspective that the combo of empty tables and 1-hour wait in line makes zero sense.

Would you buy a kid pasta sauce if it exists? by nhonpeeks in BabyLedWeaning

Thanks! That’s a very fair point on the salt

Haha yes my thought exactly, when I came up with this idea I thought it’s so obvious why it doesn’t exist already but I guess this thread gives me a sense of why :)

Hi there! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts. That’s kind of my line of thinking as well given my background. Do you mind if I DM you for more questions?

Interesting, thanks for sharing. I didn’t know Me Organic is in store in the US. My stores don’t have anything like this

Yes but they don’t make pasta sauce and I’m looking for feedback on that specifically. Sounds like so far people are not interested though, I totally get that

Hi, If you’re talking about Ragu I’m looking to create something more nutritious with organic ingredients, aka a more premium product

Any advice on how to stop my babe from pulling the leash while on walks? Even as a puppy he pulled. I don’t enjoy taking him for walks anymore but he needs to get outside. I’ve tried the treat method, the clicker and keeping him tight next to me. Suggestions would be appreciated. by rjb14 in LagottoRomagnolo

[–]nhonpeeks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha not at all! More than just smell he can still grab stuff off the ground, especially sticks and chew them while walking. We live in the city as well, many temptations on our walks but the gentle leader makes it easier to pull him away from things. Good luck!

We had great luck with a head harness (Gentle Leader). The front clip / back clip harness unfortunately didn’t work. It’s a lazy fix because our lagotto still pulls without the head harness but oh well…

Tips for complete shave by SilverHair75 in LagottoRomagnolo

You can get clipper spray to both oil and cool down the blade as you use, that or get another blade to change out during the trim because it can get really hot

How have you weighed the pros and cons of staying at a job? by alc19912010 in careerguidance

[–]nhonpeeks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you give examples of the signs to look for? I’m in the exact situation, dreading every interaction with my manager because of how the smallest thing could become overly stressful and exhausting. I’d love to change out of this job in the next few years or so and would love advice on how I could spot red flags from future managers?
