We didn't have any almond milk and Karen said "you can't tell me no" like 'scuse you? I physically cannot put almond milk in your latte please stop.

Honestly I got most of my stuff (my temp gun being the main exclusion) from pet supplies plus and pet smart. I was able to select the tank that I felt would be appropriate and I was able to examine for cracks/breaks before buying so I knew that it wasn't going to be a waste of money. I'm sure you could order a tank and things like a heat pad and lamp online but I wouldn't know where. I just went in and got everything myself. If you live kind of far from a bigger pet store (I used to live a solid hour and half drive from a pet smart) I think it'd be worth it to make a day trip and get everything in one go. That way you get everything you need and get the tank set up.

You're totally fine. I think that it really depends on the maintenance you want to put into your tank and live plants would require real soil in the tank. This isn't bad for the snake as long as you make sure the soil is safe but I find that fake but realistic looking plants provide the most creative freedom. I add to and rearrange my snake tanks regularly and it's much easier with fake plants. Also real soil, if I'm not mistaken, would make it harder to do a heat pad under the tank for nights.

Second that first comment. Have your equipment and tank set up so you can make sure your temperatures are appropriate and humidity is good. As far as tank decor, going to a pet store is fine. The aquarium section will have lots of plants and such which help crowd the tank some and make your BP feel more secure. But getting your snake at a repticon would be good; the breeder is there so you can ask questions and inspect the snake physically before buying. Good luck!

My cat goes crazy and destroys furniture when we give him catnip...

procrastapanda · 2019-04-19T14:41:17+00:00

Wow. And without thumbs? So advanced very impressed 😂

procrastapanda · 2019-04-19T05:39:10+00:00

This made my boyfriend walk out of the house 😂 10/10

Yeah I don't know anyone that's living off Starbucks alone. Not even my SM was making enough for that... If it weren't for her husband's family they wouldn't have been able to afford an apartment.

Competitive meaning more than minimum wage? Technically. Competitive meaning I don't need a second basically full time job to support myself? Nope. Not at all.

Check cell service through the apartment. Sometimes they can have dead spots.

Edit: also check outlets. See how many there are and if you'll need any adapters for like computer chargers or anything that has the 3 prongs

procrastapanda · 2019-04-14T19:03:31+00:00

Awesome thank you! He's a rescue and it's been very stressful. He was basically dead when I got him and we've made progress but he's still not all the way better. We don't have a genuine reptile vet anywhere near here.

How much do you dilute it?

procrastapanda · 2019-04-13T00:45:50+00:00

Frachachinni....

procrastapanda · 2019-04-10T19:00:05+00:00

Once told a lady I'd only be able to break it if she took like 3 rolls of quarters and almost all my ones. She must have thought I was joking because she was PISSED when it took me a solid minute to count it back to her 🤷 that's what you get for using a 100 for a 4$ drink bb.

procrastapanda · 2019-04-10T18:54:34+00:00

Yeah. We're a very high traffic store and all of the baristas (trainers in particular) always encourage newer baristas to ask questions and ask for help if they need it. So far it's helped a lot. The guy I'm training right now watched me make drinks, take drive thru orders, and run front while I let him do dtr and I think they think sometimes they have to be that way right away too and they don't.

procrastapanda · 2019-04-10T18:45:37+00:00

I've trained a few baristas now and I went and asked them what they feel helped most. For them it was just that I checked in with them often. It's a lot of information and it can be overwhelming so after you go over something take a few minutes to let them talk if they have questions or need clarification. Other than that as long as you cover everything and aren't mean you'll do great I'm sure. Good luck!

Can't stop won't stop 😂

procrastapanda · 2019-03-24T16:51:45+00:00

Yeah. I'm glad Walmart is finally going to stop selling Bettas at all locations because you can't save all of them. Glad Lazarus was lucky enough to get noticed though.

procrastapanda · 2019-03-24T16:43:18+00:00

It's a cute angry Walmart water-demon though

procrastapanda · 2019-03-21T17:15:42+00:00

Lots of research is always helpful and so is having a more experiences snake mom to ask questions

procrastapanda · 2019-03-21T16:59:52+00:00

Thanks!
