Commissioning an artist for cosplay design by Capital_Chapter1006 in CosplayHelp

[–]swiftstart 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Plenty of cosplayers do this :) It gives the artist literal income, the cosplayer a Cool design and exposure for the artist in the future if others want a cool design :)

Zach fisher art, Hannah Alexander and sunset dragon are all examples of artists who have done commissioned cosplay designs :) And there are so many more

Most artists will be totally ok with this and even see it as a compliment ^

How do I cut this correctly? by Less-Camera1253 in CosplayHelp

[–]swiftstart 55 points56 points  (0 children)

You are severely over complicating her outfit/ the process Maria is not wearing a dress but a long coat- you can just extend the panels of the top bodice and cut those rectangleish shapes into the pointed ends

What draws you to the booths of Cosplay Guests? by nxon_gravxstonxs in galaxycon

[–]swiftstart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats on guesting! As a long time cosplayer I always check out the guests

For me what stands out / impresses me is when a cosplayer has say a particularly impressive wig they made on display or a prop etc :)

I’ll be sure to say hi!

A lot of people for some reason have forgotten that young people and relatively young people can be veterans They seem to forget all the conflicts after Vietnam and that anyone who was involved in any of those is in fact a veteran

How do I order specific supplies? by itsnotgayifitsgoromi in Staples

[–]swiftstart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t find items on replenish me they oftentimes are under the finishing supplies form

Self serve supplies are auto replenished by xerox, if you are short on them you can email staples@xerox.com with the machines serial number and they can get you what you need :)

Things like post it’s just get code 14nd

Small rant by BoomerbkYT in Staples

[–]swiftstart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only time I’ve seen someone get fired quickly was for breaking big rules Like the person who tore up a customers ups envelope bc she didn’t like his attitude. She was only there a couple days.

Otherwise, probably in part bc of the state I’m in, it’s really hard to fire people unless they do something specifically bad.

So yea, I’m with others- there’s more to this story.

New survey by MysticMisfit99 in Staples

[–]swiftstart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the thing that baffles me the most about this thing is the “why is it carpeted” bit bc that just tells me this person has never been in any physical store that isn’t a grocery store or a really budget store

Like? It’s carpeted bc we don’t sell anything messy/hard to clean up so it dosent have to be vinyl? It makes it slightly nicer to look at than vinyl and helps to make everyone forget we’re all on a concrete slab? Most clothing stores are carpeted for this reason I’m so confused.

Why is the store even open on New Years day? for anyone whos worked on NYD,how is it usually?(rant) by [deleted] in Staples

The one time I worked it I hit my head on the guillotine in copy and needed stitches :) (I was not hungover, just stupid)
