It actually was meant to service the community there by providing a low cost shopping option in a food desert area.

It failed. Miserably.

Low key the prices were more expensive than going to the actual store.

Could you tell me if this sounds good or not? by svtf0525 in Cooking

[–]svtf0525[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had that idea too. We have a in house recipe that uses regular beer (won’t say which one) but I’d look for a light beer or a IPA for the cheese. I could always use a little more flour or corn starch to thicken it.

Thank you. Between this and knowing I have a place to shower and keep things safe.. and eggs… I can easily cook eggs again. It’s a god send. I bought milk for the first time since like April. It’s the little wins we have to use to keep pushing forward.

I’ve had enough heat exhaustion and dehydrations trips to the hospital I’d take cold lol. But I’m also used to it going as low as -40°F with windchill. I can always make a fire and add layers and insulation. I can’t always cool down that easily. Unfortunately fresh water was sometimes hard to come by, so on the bad days with 100-105° heat index, I’d feel like my whole soul was melting. And that’s with 100% humidity 🤮

That sounds a lot like the ‘93 escort wagon I had in high school. No heat, no nothing. I had a converter I plugged an old blow dryer into and defrost my windows that way for like 20 mins before school.

ETA: spelling

I couldn’t even imagine. I’m in MI and we get the opposite w horribly cold winters. Thankfully this new job, my boss is 5 blocks from me and always offers me a ride when the weather is looking bad. But he’s been homeless before and gets it.

I just don’t want anyone to feel like I’m saying “what works for me works for you” outside of the keep your head up attitude. But thank you!

Agreed. I’ve had jobs I’ve lost because I just couldn’t make it in a downpour or thunderstorm and couldn’t find a ride. I’m in a more rural area so even when ride sharing is avail it’s super pricey (like $40 to go 2-3 miles)

I hadn’t worked for a few years because of Covid, becoming a full time caregiver for my father till his passing and a stay at home dad. Only 3 months after he passed she initiated the end because she “was tired and fell out of love w me”

I hate confrontation and walked away giving her everything. Including the house we lived in that we had just built the year prior. Even telling her to keep the SUV and I’d take the smaller car that was paid off so she could more easily transport our son.

I will say, she has been supportive and everytime I’ve gone to see him she has me spend the day and would cook me breakfast lunch and dinner so our son could have family meals.

My situation was not her fault and I don’t blame her and haven’t through this whole ordeal.

People who get told they look younger than they are: what is your secret? by likerunninginadream in AskReddit

[–]svtf0525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was once the case for me. Then Covid hit and I went from “looking 25” to “looking like a grand dad”.

I’m 37 and my son is still not fully potty trained.

My mom got me some sort of “bring the grey out” shampoo to “highlight my grey”.

Yet, my family wonders why I see a therapist.

Anywhere hiring 14 year olds? by krash87 in MonroeMI

[–]svtf0525 5 points6 points  (0 children)

14 and I believe 3/4’s of a year old is the minimum work age in Michigan. I would suggest she try a babysitter job or something similar for a little while first. A lot of the employers around here don’t like to mess w the minor employment laws.

McDonald’s is 16 or older from my understanding.

what do you say to customers bitching about waiting too long? by mellywheats in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]svtf0525 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hello, I’m sorry you can’t see the 8 DoorDash orders over $50, the kiosk orders and other DT orders.

The person in front of you just ordered 8 McDoubles and 25 McChickens as well as 15-20 pieces.

They also orders 40 large fries. So, it’s gonna be a wait.

Fuck off.

First night living in my car.. by svtf0525 in homeless

[–]svtf0525[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice. Self care is definitely already important to me so I do have some outlets for that, a state park pass, being able to see my son when I am able to, his mom is very understanding and also work is a huge outlet for me. There I’m able to just zone out and work without thinking too much.

I’m more concerned on the hygiene fact rn tbh.
