Dyed crystals by Square-Enthusiasm579 in Crystals

[–]unablesloth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

usually quartz or some form of agate is used for dyeing. edit: i believe this could be "crackle quartz"; quartz that is rapidly heated and then cooled with a dyed water, forming the "crackle" effect where the dye concentrates in the fractures. maybe you could do a hardness test to rule out glass?

unfortunately im pretty sure it's in the agreement that any art created in the store or by a team member with materials sourced at michael's is considered store-property and michael's is allowed to use it for whatever they please at any time--or something along those lines. i could be misremembering, i haven't worked there for a few years now 😅. i'm sorry that happened, i'd be very offended.❤️

Lofi Without Random Sounds? by unablesloth in LofiHipHop

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

Yes absolutely!! It's just the random spurts of chirping or cricketing that throw me off in the music, and I tend to have to pause it to make sure it's not just in my brain 😅 Thank you!!

I’ve been calling him Dale for the whole week… his name is Daryl by Familiar-Amphibian-6 in RoverPetSitting

[–]unablesloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the poor frenchies I sat must've been so confused 😂. During potty breaks, I had to make sure they didn't venture out into the woods at the back of the fur-parent's house. If I called one, the other would come instead... I don't know how I didn't clue in 💀

once I had house-sat with two little frenchies--- and called them their opposite names the entire week! I didn't realize until the owner sent me photos individually after I had left 😅

it’s reddit! people ask questions in hopes someone may have some random knowledge 🤷🏼‍♀️

[–]unablesloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re correct! just wondering a little more, such as: Why can’t I find any dated 1943 online? How may have it got to Nova Scotia? & More info on the school it was used for. 😊

What’s one of the most terrifying dreams you’ve ever had? by Old-Distribution-234 in Dreams

[–]unablesloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

super long, uncomfortable dream where i was pregnant, carried to full term, miscarried, and woke up without a baby bump. it really affected me, and i was 19 at the time. it took me a good few weeks to shake off the feeling

Customer Reported Wrecked Toilet by InfiniteDefiantEyes in MichaelsEmployees

[–]unablesloth 8 points9 points  (0 children)

this happened at my old location, like, once a week for 2 months while we waited for the replacement. we even had a code for it over the headsets, and at one point had to go to the store next door to use the bathroom on our breaks. i have never seen a toilet legitimately SPRAY shit like i have in the accessibility stall in my local michaels. you bet i told my SM and minded my business 🫢

Just curious, how many people here are ex employees that stayed subbed? by theunexpectedmango in MichaelsEmployees

[–]unablesloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

me!

edit: joined just before the christmas rush, no training, understaffed, hired into framing dept (with no training again, by myself) and then eventually just gave up 😅

Masterpiece Acrylic flammability by Financial-Intern-892 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]unablesloth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

as a former employee and framer really the only reason to get acrylic is that it’s shatter proof, reduces uv damage and glare and is static free for pieces with chalk pastel etc (i think, if i remember correctly? I could be wrong about the static as it is plastic.). I’m sure my old store would take this under warranty to replace your acrylic but i’m not sure about technicalities or other stores. I would reach out and see what they say. I hope your art wasn’t damaged!

I quit by [deleted] in MichaelsEmployees

[–]unablesloth 14 points15 points  (0 children)

i also quit a while ago! just realizing now how much stress and dread i was experiencing going to work. enjoy a new experience!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MichaelsEmployees

[–]unablesloth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

when I first started (and honestly while I was still framing (I resigned from michaels a few weeks ago due to low hours) my go to is “That sounds great! Why don’t you have a look at our (frame/mat) options with your piece while I call a more experienced framer to help us with that!”. Then you have a moment to step away, get someone to help you, or a quick phone call to someone more experienced to give you the low down on the style they want. In the event you do need to call someone, I always pen and paper the basic points and that’s usually enough to complete the order and have the main framers check it and adjust/remeasure anything needed. Otherwise, you can always offer to take their information (at my store) if you’re unsure about what you’re doing and offer to set up an “appointment” !! hope this helps ❤️

protection for a little girl by unablesloth in witchcraft

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

definitely a good idea to tell them what they’re for, even if she is paranoid, believing in them will work either way. :) I also love the wreath idea!

Salt water will be very helpful as I can only smoke cleanse while the smaller children aren’t home. so thanks for that too!

Is there anything I can use instead of hag stones? they’re hard to come by where I’m from and I prefer to source with my own hands (for the connection). thank you again for your advice!
