Java is an island

A friend of mine got the recommendation to be a pedicurist. Not a manicurist, not some general aesthetician, nope. Test wanted him to work with feet so badly ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

No, it’s about 10 minutes by bus, which is really neat.

It’s a chain of flower retailers. I certainly learnt a lot, but it’s a very faced paced and volatile environment and industry with sometimes long hours and it’s way more physically demanding than I could have ever imagined.

I (late 20ies, then mid 20ies), after a failed degree and multiple stints in a local psych ward, just did the most boomer thing possible, walked into a shop at the local mall and asked.

I only wanted to work 10 hours a week at first, but the manager misunderstood and submitted me for 20, I was too nervous to correct her.

The trial day apparently went well, they sent me home after 2 hours instead of 6 because they were sure they wanted me. Didn’t tell me that tho, so when she sent me home after 2 hours, I cried the 4 remaining hours feeling worthless.

The next day they called. I accepted, I worked really hard. 3 months later the temporary manager was moved somewhere else and for some reason they made me manager. That was two years ago.

Some days I love it. Some days I hate it. But I never expected it to work out like that. I know I can’t do this forever, but it’s good for now.

What makes you hate catholics specifically over other religions?

I watched the Avicii documentary in Netflix because someone recommended it to me. It was nice, but I didn’t enjoy it as much as the person recommending it to me.

So, it’s basically a two part item. The mold is soft silicone that has a cube structure on the inside. The lid is hard plastic and has a hollow dent inside. You fill up the silicone mold and push the lid in, and the dent in the lid pushes the extra water out, so the water just stays in the part of the cube structure. When it is frozen, you take the lid out and squeeze the soft silicone part, and the ice cubes fall out in the middle. Sometimes there are tiny links between the ice cubes, but they are easily broken when you squeeze the mold.

I’m gonna send you a pic when I’m home from work, it’ll be clear

I have great success with these.

You fill the cup with water, add the lid over the sink so you catch the spill, and in the freezer it goes. Super easy to remove too.
