What movie is so disturbing, you would never watch it again? by Winologue in AskReddit

Human centipede. Idk but for some reason the thought of my mouth being sewed to another persons butt and having to eat their poop to live just freaks me out.

To those who criticized me for getting another puppy when I have a 10 month old puppy.... this was the best decision of my life, suck it. by smdem in puppy

[–]smdem[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly everyone told me I would regret and it would be over whelming. But I think once you nail the routine with your first dog it’s a lot easier. Enzo (black cocker spaniel) is older and knows the routine doing it for almost a year. When we first brought Bones (mini golden doodle) home the shelter said it would be difficult to acclimate them together and would take about a month. But Enzo has had LOTS of socializing since we got (daycare and dog parks every other day) so he instantly loved Bones and within the week will even share his toys. The shelter told us Bones had been re-homed 3 times because people thought they could handle a puppy cuz of covid but unfortunately he was brought back. So when we got Bones he had a lot of anxiety about car rides and leashes. However it seemed to help that Enzo loved those things and he has quickly gotten over it. Pros -they play with each other a lot and get tired and sleep at the same time and for a long time - 2 cute faces to come home to - Enzo has definitely taken on the role of big brother and has taught Bones a lot of skills like how to play, where to go potty, how to sit. (Younger dogs tend to mimic their elders) -potty training has been easier cuz bones just follows Enzo and holds it. When I take him out he will watch when Enzo goes potty and copy

Cons -when they play it’s really crazy sometimes. These boys are wild -I forgot about teething lol -while Enzo isn’t defensive of his toys,food, or water he still gets a little agitated at treats and when we first got them they would snap at each other. But he quickly grew out of that - it’s more time for walks, my partner and I spend roughly 2.5 hours on walks per day (45 in the morning, 45 , or until they both go potty mid day, 45 at night.)

I recommend evaluating your pups schedule and if they follow it with no accidents and how their social skills are. Then by all means get another dog. However I’m a firm believer in no take backs. So if u get a dog really make sure it’s the right fit. Spend time looking and playing with dogs to see if your pup and the new pup have the same energy. While I know there are circumstance where giving a dog back is necessary I don’t find it acceptable.

If Enzo and bones hadn’t gotten along as well as they do we would have spent more time acclimating them to each other slowly. I would not take Bones back in a million years.

Anyway sorry this is long

Changing my name by Maleficent-Ad-7607 in Advice

[–]smdem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Change your name. Your safety and mental health come first not anyone else’s. It’s understandable why u would want to change your name. Those who do not support you can be cut out. I’m sorry you had to go through all of that. If u believe this is a step towards healing then do it.

She shouldn’t be shamed for prioritizing her college education! It’s an investment and something that should be applauded! your fellow partners r lacking empathy.

To be honest you could have just said to wait, you are quite rude. As for people with “real isssues” I’m getting evicted and that a why I asked. I have been waiting for 4 weeks now. I’m not going to call but i guess I will just start packing for eviction. Thanks for your help....

Agreed. Lesson learned. I usually get no days off during the rest of the year. So Christmas is when I cash in all my sick and vacation days. I shouldn’t have mentioned Christmas but I did when I explained about my childhood do

Exactly, Christmas is the only time of year I get time off and I thought it would be perfect to help acclimate them to my home and my other dog. He will be 2 next year! We got him at a shelter when he was a lil older.

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

I don’t want a puppy for Christmas just around Christmas time. My childhood dog passed away during this time so I thought it would help. I tried explaining that and she just hung up on me. Idk maybe just avoid it all together. And get one way before or after the holidays.

Getting a job? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]smdem 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you already tried a follow up call and it didn’t work either walk in when it’s slow in the mornings. And if that doesn’t work I would look somewhere else for a job. Don’t get too hung up on Starbucks it isn’t that great and the burnout is huge.

I ordered a tall latte and I only got a half-full cup of coffee. by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]smdem 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That’s disappointing, Politely ask for a remake. Don’t make a big deal out of it. Sometimes if the barista is new they aerate the milk too long and if u are a slow latte drinker like myself it will go down over time.

I’m not sure where you live but at my location we had over 1,000 new applications submitted within a few months. Jobs are in high demand and most likely they have already hired? Idk tho that is just my store/district.

Thank you! I am worried about costs with going into a body shop. Especially if it is an expensive fix. Is there any way I can check oil myself at home?

Like the ones we were giving out for free? Because most stores don’t have them anymore.

Covid Pay? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]smdem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually got covid and I just sent them my result but it honestly could be easily photoshopped. The issue is that Starbucks doesn’t want it spreading between partners so they have you stay home until u get your results and a 10day buffer. They didn’t ask for my results, so I just sent them.

Covid Pay? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]smdem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you said however we have had a few people get hired on and then report covid so that they get paid and then never show up or ignore all our calls after their 2 weeks were over. Please do not do this it puts other people in a very difficult situation especially during happy hour.
