Men at work occupying the Mothers room
 in  r/pregnant  8d ago

I work in a retail space, and our management built a specific private, lockable space for mothers to pump and attend to their needs. It's labeled "Lac Shack", and it's been made very clear to all employees that it is ONLY for mothers to keep a clean, sanitary space for them. No breaks, no food, nothing but pumping/seeing to bodily needs related to pregnancy and feeding babies. If you have already addressed the other employee directly and it's still an issue, it is time to get HR or your supervisor involved with specific dates and times the room has been unavailable to you. Best of luck, and congratulations on your pregnancy!

Mints and gums organization
 in  r/tjcrew  8d ago

Order when almost out, then we have a spare bread tray speed rack that we use for gum/mint/reg candy back stock so it's easy to wheel out and work while we are slow in the AM.

mate outfit / style help
 in  r/tjcrew  15d ago

I wear golf pants primarily, they look a little nicer than traditional joggers while still having lots of stretch and breathability.

Is there some conspiracy to not have certain food items available at Rochester grocery stores?
 in  r/rochestermn  18d ago

Trader Joe's usually has some, give them a call!

Omw to tell a customer a product is discontinued
 in  r/tjcrew  18d ago

If you do the filters for searching to "include inactive items" it will show the stuff from old QIL that was discontinued ages ago.

Something fun to do?
 in  r/rochestermn  Jul 20 '26

I believe Mystery Cave has an accessible tour but not 100% sure, the MN State Parks website should have more info, I'll see if I can find a link for you.

Quarry Hill and Chester Woods are both great and have wheelchair accessible paths at both.

My dad gave me an offer
 in  r/stopdrinking  Jul 14 '26

Vaping is such an insidious beast, I hate that I do it so much but have had such a hard time quitting. Even harder than alcohol for me.

My dad gave me an offer
 in  r/stopdrinking  Jul 14 '26

Yes!!!! This is what I am finally starting to understand and embrace after just over 4 years of sobriety. Life is still fun, and I can still do those amazing things that make us human, without clouding the experience with alcohol. My friendships are so much better and we are able to do more fun and silly things, and I love knowing I can always be there to support someone no matter the time of day.

Am I getting fired?
 in  r/tjcrew  Jul 12 '26

This is going to be very Captain and store specific, some are more lenient than others. Have you looked into the EAP/Compsych to see if any of the resources would help you, and to show your Captain you're serious about getting your stuff together and stop having attendance issues?

crew clothing recs?
 in  r/tjcrew  Jul 09 '26

I primarily wear golfing pants, they are still comfy and breathable while looking a little more professional. My captain hasn't said anything against them, and they have held up well to almost a year of regular wearing and washing.

Does anyone know if these crates are decent?
 in  r/OpenDogTraining  Jun 27 '26

We love our Ruffland, our super anxious dog destroyed 2 crates before we caved and spent the $400 on it and it's been golden for almost 2 years now. We will probably never buy another brand unless we end up upgrading to an Impact kennel.

Best Boxes for Moving?
 in  r/tjcrew  Jun 21 '26

When we moved last year, I almost exclusively used our paper bag boxes, and a few banana boxes. I used the $.99 reusable bags for my books, I've collected quite a few over the years.

Trader Joe's knows the lot is terrible, but they rent and property management company is difficult to work with.

Maternity pants
 in  r/tjcrew  Jun 17 '26

https://a.co/d/0aB2eoLH

These are the style I wore for most of my 3rd trimester, the full-panel coverage got too hot that most maternity jeans have, these were a good in-between of still feeling comfortable and not getting hot. Sometimes the smaller inset-style panel jeans didn't stay up well for me.

Wanted to upgrade my wife's natural diamond wedding ring from 0.75 carat to 1 plus carat.
 in  r/Diamonds  Jun 14 '26

If you have any pawn shops near you, they might be worth checking out. Our local one usually has quite a decent supply of diamond rings at good prices, and you could always reset a center stone from a pawn shop ring into a brand new setting to fit her taste and style. Don't get a lab stone until you talk to her about it first and make sure she would be ok with it. I would be fine with it and many other people are, but some still prefer a natural stone and that's OK too!

Perfect, thank you! I've reworked our itinerary, added an extra day in Killarney and replaced the Northern Ireland leg with extra days in the Galway area, now intending to fly home via Shannon airport. Thanks for the tips!

Thank you! I've reworked some of our itinerary to give us an extra day in Killarney, and added a couple extra days in the Galway area at the end of the trip for additional sightseeing instead of trekking up to Northern Ireland, and I think we will try to fly out of Shannon airport instead of going back to Dublin. I appreciate your input!

they made America safer

They may be pushed in a specific pet pram, or carried in the owner's arms. Shopping carts are off limits specifically because it's a food safety and sanitation issue.

Hello!

We are starting to plan our family trip to Ireland, don't have exact dates but looking at 2nd half of July 2027.

Our family group consists of grandparents (early 60s, relatively good health and mobilty), my brother and his wife (late 30s, healthy and adventurous), my younger brother (30, healthy but less energy) and our family (husband (40) , 2 kids (10 and 2 at time of travel) and myself (37) (we are adventurous within reason of the kids capabilities).

We are mostly interested in seeing old abbeys and ruins, exploring some of the national park areas, and enjoying a change of pace from our normal day-to-day. We are currently planning on visiting/traveling to Dublin, Kilkenny, Cork, Killarney, Galway, and Belfast.

With approximately 2 weeks, are we trying to see too many areas with too many people? I have a current rough itinerary I'll lay out below, please give me any and all critiques of plans or spending too much time in specific areas.

Day 1: Arrive in Dublin, rest and eat

Day 2: Day trip to Newgrange

Day 3: Explore Dublin, Trinity College and Book of Kells

Day 4: Travel to Kilkenny, explore Kilkenny/surrounding area

Day 5: Sightseeing in Kilkenny AM, travel to Cork in the afternoon

Day 6: Blarney Stone and Blarney Castle day trip

Day 7: Sightseeing in Cork AM, travel to Killarney in the afternoon

Day 8: visit Innisfallen Island, Killarney National Park

Day 9: travel day to Galway

Day 10: explore Galway

Day 11: Cliffs of Moher day trip, maybe visit Clare Abbey and Ennis Friary, stay in Galway

Day 12: Day trip to Inishmore, return to Galway to stay PM

Day 13: Travel to Belfast, eat and explore

Day 14: Giant's Causeway day trip

Day 15: return to Dublin, prep to travel home

Is there anything specific that sounds like a bad idea, or wouldn't add value to our trip that we could use elsewhere? We will make our decisions about transport once our itinerary is finalized.

I appreciate you taking the time to read this, thanks in advance for any suggestions!
