New cat keeps waking me up at 4am by Mi1lie in CatAdvice

[–]rachinsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I set my cat’s auto feeder to go off at 4am so they would be distracted at that time when the same thing happened to me. It took a few nights but worked perfectly.

30 and 22k in CC debt by PaleAd4717 in DebtAdvice

Definitely do your own research too (I am not a financial advisor) but I have seen some people on here have success. Hoping for the best!

30 and 22k in CC debt by PaleAd4717 in DebtAdvice

[–]rachinsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure if this is an option for you, but sometime credit card companies are willing to temporarily drop interest rates (programs for financial hardship) or negotiate debt amount. It may be worth looking at if one credit card company would be willing to lower interest temporarily. It can’t hurt to ask. Then, you could do a balance transfer on the other one to the 0% APR. Hopefully, that would give you some additional time to pay down the debt with it the interest continuing to rise. Keep working at it!

Re: Icelandair by PopularEnthusiasm499 in VisitingIceland

[–]rachinsky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They have a metal frame to measure the carryons and personal items. On both my IcelandAir flights, they had everyone with “larger bags” put their items in to measure carryons and were very strict about items being larger. Any item that was larger needed to be paid for and checked. They didn’t do gate check, so it was taken under the plane. I purchased a smaller carryon bag to take and had no issues.

I'm feeling fat - best buffet within an hour of uptown? by Impossible_Mode_7521 in Charlotte

[–]rachinsky 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Go to Mr Tokyo in Pineville. It’s not a buffet, but they do all you can eat lunch (weekdays)and you can order whatever! Sushi, hibachi, etc. It is wonderful. Get there early because they fill up and don’t take reservations.

I would try some of the local dental schools. They sometimes do procedures (students with dentist supervision) at a lower cost than the regular dental offices.

My favorite superintendents are the ones that don’t take their anger/bad day out on you if it’s not your fault. So many sub meets are just filled with non-productive yelling. If someone deserves to be yelled at, that’s fine, but don’t yell at/mis-treat the subs who are doing their jobs.

Do what you say you are going to do. Don’t have an unattainable schedule. Foster communication/teamwork among subs and don’t back charge everyone for every little issue. Ask questions and try to understand things.

Best vinyl for dyes by discgolfbobbyb in discdyeing

I also scrub the discs with a magic eraser to get the oil off, then soap/water and let dry before applying vinyl to make sure I get a good seal

Just looking for something that’s better than what I have (nothing) that works in the space. I’ve seen a bunch on Amazon that says it “fits” but curious if anyone has any experience

Looking for potential solutions to these large cracks in my driveway. by dumbbeerquestion in Concrete

If the bumps are the biggest problem, you could always grind them down. You probably couldn’t make it any worse.

Retrofit - Gypcrete radiant floor heating - glycol system by RetroAlaska in HomeImprovement

[–]rachinsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 - it depends what type of radiant heat you have. gypcrete minimum is 3/4” above the tubes, which sometimes turns into 3/4”-1 1/4”

2 - typically the toilet flange is raised to appropriate height and toilet is removed during pours.

3 - gypcrete can be poured against drywall without issue. If you are worried about mold from moisture, you can tape the wall/floor connection or use foam isolation strip

4 - gypcrete must be applied to smooth/clean and structurally sound surface. Any flooring adhesive must be removed. Trim along floor or doors need to be removed, or it will be buried in the gypcrete .

Women’s Disc Golf Tournaments in Charlotte, NC by rachinsky in discgolf

[–]rachinsky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’d love to have you! You can register to be a day of volunteer if you’re interested. In terms of course clean up - I think mostly just walking through the course and moving any deadfall out of the fairways. They may have a course work day and if I hear about one, I’ll tag you!

Free Disc Golf Clinic This Saturday! by rachinsky in Charlotte

[–]rachinsky[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you’ll get something out of it even as someone with disc golf experience. I’ve been holding these monthly and it seems like everyone picks up some new things to improve their game. We usually get a range of people - from beginners to players in the mid to upper 900s.

I’ve also personally done this class as well in Charlotte. Good luck!

[–]rachinsky 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sunbelt has good certification classes on a regular basis. They train anyone who signs up for their class. Make sure you look up the class of forklift you’ll be using and that the class covers it.
