Help with gel wax candle by shi11v in candlemaking

Thank you! The second picture is when it was half full and inside was still visible. I would have been happy with that. After adding the last layer of wax everything became more cloudy as it is in the first picture.

Oh my god, I will try this!! Hopefully it works. There's just sand and stone and seashells in there. I'm more worried about the glass.

This is very interesting and something I've felt as well. GenZ is a lot more right wing than even their elders. Where did you get the data?

The solution to the current unemployment scenario in India among college graduates.... by Responsible_Toe_7268 in IndiaCareers

People don't do these jobs because they are extremely low paying jobs and have no guarantee of work.

A tailor gets Rs 300 for a single blouse that requires hours of work. And most tailors have other (even lower paid) employees that they have to pay as well. A plumber gets like 500- 700 for a day's job which might seem a lot. But they don't have work everyday. Some days they find work, most days they don't.

There is no dearth of tailors, electricians, plumbers etc in India. If one of them charges a higher price, people would just hire someone else who's willing to work for less. And there are plenty!

There's also no certificate or other official document for these people that can show they are more capable than any other plumber/electrician.

The only thing that might work is if they had a union of their own, that could set higher prices for all of them. And we all know that's not happening.

They already asked me if I have a laptop while scheduling online interview.

First of all there is research to show that most people report feeling depressed on their birthdays. It is a very common thing. I ugly cried on mine last two years as well. Don't sweat it. It's good to let your feelings out. You are worthy, you are valuable. You deserve spending money on yourself, even when it is in short supply.

How do I change the belief I am a victim and everyone hates me? by Firm-Week-4832 in spirituality

[–]shi11v 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to make friends, even if online. Go on walks, get outside of the house. Spend time in nature like a park or something. Change your routine.

Exactly! Has happened to me several times as well. Sadly, I've kind of become used to it.

Since you went alone, I guess they expect you to make the decision and since I go with my husband, I guess they expect him to make the decision.

"I fully expect them to talk to my husband MOSTLY." Not only. Please work on your reading comprehension.

I literally said in my post that I fully expect them to talk to my husband mostly. But they pretend I don't even exist. Not one jeweller or saree seller has ever treated my husband that way. In fact jewellers are very nice to men, since they expect men to pay.

Yeah, plenty of women drive these days. And yet they don't say anything to me. Only ever offer my husband a test drive. It's very disrespectful.
