He's the cause of all this drama.
During a looming economic crisis + ridiculous foreign tariffs + with real estate currently at an all-time high?
Don't think I can take the risk of trying to start my own business right now, as much as I'd like to.
The fabric was patterned and he said that he expected the pattern to match / line up on each one, and they have to match no matter which cushions were switched out. I had to be meticulous and make sure the back cushion pattern started where the seat pattern ended. Had to do the same with the boxing.
I also used a hot-knife to cut, as I had wanted to make sure fabric wouldn't unravel. That was probably overkill, but I wanted to show I could do clean work and was serious. Too bad I felt I was the only one taking it seriously, in the end.
I live in a town on the water, and we don't have a marine canvas / upholstery shop, which baffled the hell out of me. Now I realize that old, out-of-touch shop owners would not want to fairly pay employees, so that's why we still have none.
I looked into starting my own shop.. but with my country's current leader actively plunging us into an economic crisis.. it's a frustrating no-go, as the risk is far too high. Plus, I looked into buildings where it could be feasible, and I could not afford it even in my wildest dreams.
I appreciate your input. I'm too angry and frustrated to do more rn, but I do very much appreciate your kindness. Thank you.
I suppose I shouldn't have expected a boomer to fairly compensate me. However, it being my first time out in the job market for a while, I had expected things things to work on a standard based on at least the current minimum wage.
I don't think those expectations are unreasonable.
What industry?
EDIT: Original comment was something like "My workplace is 80% men, so it wouldn't be feasible to put a woman in a higher position"
Like.... dude..... come on........ come ooooon....
Murder a man and steal massively heavy equipment from a well-known local figure? That's your solution to my problem?
For fuck's sake.
You usually need money to do that.
I have been looking for stable work that doesn't involve self-employment & having to "market" myself & my work.
He owns the equipment.
I've actually made fursuits before.
Unfortunately, there's apparently an oversaturation in the market right now..
I'm looking for some place where the income is stable & I don't have to seek out clients on my own. Done my own stuff for years now. I'm too tired trying to "market" myself & my work.
I've tried to do custom cosplay work before based off of written measurements, but I'm pretty useless without the client being available for tailoring/adjustments.
Most folks aren't goid at giving the actual correct measurements anyhow.
So sorry for the blurry photo... but would anyone help to identify the make/model of this vehicle based on this photo?
I've been trying, but I'm stumped. Not a car person, unfortunately. ):
EDIT: Thank you everyone!!! You've been an awesome help!!
Playing DDR.
Because then the public won't see my red, flailing body as I stumble around to sit after a single song.
That and mowing my lawn. ...except with my lawn, I've had people pull over and ask if I'm okay. Which is embarrassing every time it happens. I'm out of shape and I have a condition!! But I'm not going to explain that to strangers lol
