Background: So, I'm a new sitter (started last month since I'm between jobs and just moved cities). I have worked in multiple dog shelters, rescues and boarding facilities. I'm Fear Free Shelter Training certified and have experience with fear-free and consent-based training. However, I've only been using Rover for a few weeks and am still learning the ins and outs of gig work.
The pre-booking: On November 8th, I received a booking request for housesitting November 27th to December 1st (5 days, 4 nights). I responded and suggested a meet-and-greet. She asked if we could meet that night, but I was unavailable and offered alternative availability for Monday the 11th. She confirmed that the 11th at 11am worked for her. I then asked if she would like to do the meet-and-greet at her house or at a park nearby, and she responded that she didn't need a meet-and-greet. The client insisted that she did not need a meet-and-greet as long as I understood that the puppy was only 3 months old. Since I did, I accepted the booking.
This is my first mistake: accepting a booking without a meet-and-greet. I recognize that in hindsight and going forward I will not accept bookings without a meet-and-greet first. It was also a red flag that she agreed to a time and date and then changed her mind when I tried to work out the final details.
Then, on the 19th, she messaged again and asked if we could set up a meet-and-greet soon. We did a meet-and-greet on the 20th and it went well, except that she was rushing due to the fact that she was home on her lunch break. After I arrived at her house, she tried to get me to get in her car to go to the park for the meet-and-greet. I said I preferred to follow her in my own car. We went to the park to let the puppy run around, then we went back to her house, where she gave me a rushed tour (upstairs crate, bedroom, porch cameras, etc) and very rushed instructions (feed twice a day, crate when not home, try to tire him out as much as possible, he can be left alone for up to 5 hours). During the meet-and-greet, she said that she would have detailed printed instructions ready for me during the booking, so I wasn't terribly worried about the rushed instructions, especially because the care information on Rover was filled out.
She seemed fairly manic during the meet-and-greet, but I chalked it up to her being rushed. This is my second major mistake. I should have trusted my gut that something was wrong instead of dismissing it.
The situation: The booking was scheduled to start today, and the client texted at 9am that she had just left. She said that she had forgotten to print the instructions but would send them to me while she was waiting for her flight.
I was out running errands and had an appointment at the time, so I went over as soon as I could, which was around noon.
I did have a drop-in booking at 1, so I left after a bit to complete that drop-in. After the drop-in, I returned. I was gone for less than an hour total (5-10 minutes transit each way, 30 minute drop in).
At this point, I had not yet recieved the care instructions and was operating on the care instructions written in Rover. The client was aware that I did not yet have the care instructions and she said she would send them after she landed from her flight.
At around 6, I got hungry and needed to get dinner. As soon as I left, the client sent me the care instructions, but added that she was "deeply concerned" and "on the edge of tears" that I was leaving again.
While I was picking up my dinner, I reviewed the care instructions she sent and realised that she expected a lot of things that had not been mentioned at all that I would have either charged extra for or expected prior instruction/forewarning so I could agree to it, such as a bath, several dedicated massages for the puppy (when he wakes up, before bed, after dinner), and laundry. This is a mistake on my part, I should have further clarified what exactly she expected during the stay. I responded to this by saying that I would be willing to do most of it, but the bath (which she wanted done on the day she gets back) would be an extra charge, so I could either charge her for it or she could opt out. I probably should have just taken the loss and done what she asked instead of trying to hold firm on my prices, but that's my own mistake.
In the hour that I was getting dinner, the client sent progressively more troubling messages, eventually saying that she felt worried that the puppy was not going to get enough attention and that I was going to cause separation anxiety by leaving the house for other tasks during the booking.
I arrived back at her house (I was gone for about 75 minutes). I checked my phone again and saw that she had sent a message saying that she felt uncomfortable with me in her house and said that she was immediately terminating our agreement. As I was reading that, she sent another message saying that if I wasn't out within 10 minutes, she would call the police to escort me out.
I left and contacted Rover support immediately. From what I can see, the client has initiated a cancellation on her end, but since the booking is already in progress, Rover support needs to approve it. I contacted Rover support because I felt extremely weird and uncomfortable with the whole situation. I've sent Rover all the documents showing what I agreed to vs what she added on afterwards, as well as her threatening to call the police.
My questions: Will this impact my Rover account in any way? If so, how? I suspect that she will be reporting me for not fulfilling services, but I have done everything we agreed to during the meet-and-greet and what's written on the Rover care instructions. Her expansive instructions were sent externally, and sent after the booking had already started. Does this mean I'm on the hook for doing it even if it wasn't what was agreed to on the platform?
If the client is awarded a refund for the cancellation, does that mean that I don't get paid? I have a seven day cancellation policy, but I've never had to use it. Regardless of what she claims, I did perform the services that were initially agreed upon. Will I get paid for that?
Is there anything I can do in the meantime to prevent fallout from this situation? I've already sent all the information I have over to Rover support. Has anyone else been in this situation? How did you handle it? Is the client crazy, or am I handling this all wrong? How can I improve my client screening and prevent this going forward?
TLDR: A booking started today and the client felt like I wasn't spending enough time with her dog, and threatened to call the police to get me out of her house. What do I do?

It's 2 rural chinese men, and they'd make food in the videos, (similar to hytrend) There was a bigger guy who didn't dress that well And the other guy was skinny (I think with glasses) and wore a nice black shirt At the Start of the video the bigger guy would come into the skinny guys room and say his name and throw a recipe at him and he would catch it in his teeth ,and they'd run off to cook the food
Does anyone know?
Edit: At the end of the video, they'd take a photo of them eating

2024.11.28 07:40 Interesting_Bee792 Lost 20lbs since being with this man, mainly from getting sober off alcohol, but some has to do with stress. And apparently itās unfair to him?
My NS says that itās unfair that I lost all my weight I had in the beginning of the relationship. Told me he isnāt sexually attracted to me anymore, and would have more sex with me if I had bigger boobs, and a bigger ass, like I had in the beginning.
He also didnāt fail to mention that I had an ugly vagina and thatās why he wonāt touch it. (Iāve struggled with the way my labia looked ever since I was assaulted when I was 13, he knows that.)
He also told me Iād make for a shitty mother and that heād hate to see what my body looks like after having a baby.
Told me he was looking up on Reddit if itās fair to him that my weight changed so drastically.
I didnāt know me doing something healthy for myself wasnāt fair to him because I lost all the alcohol weightā¦
I am so exhausted. My heart aches that the person I love more than anything sees me this way. Iāve had body image issues for as long as I can remember. My heart aches. I feel so ugly and unlovable.
When does the abuse endā¦ Iāve tried leaving so many times. But each time he just sucks me back in. Iām really struggling tonight. Have been crying for 5 hours now while he lays there behind me ācuddlingā me since he fell asleep.
The only time I feel wanted is when weāre either having sex, or heās sleeping touching me.
I donāt ever want to be naked in front of him again. I canāt help but feel so uglyā¦

2024.11.28 07:40 GilDrumZ25_ Is this a Memory Leak? I just want to make sure.
 | Hey, I want to makes sure if this is indeed a memory leak. The provided screenshots here are in order:
2. When I play WuWa, itās hovering around 78%-82% depending on where Iām currently in the world (free roam, domain, etc). https://preview.redd.it/vkptdijqhl3e1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=b39f81b0c88f41d2b01ff7c3fbe6a06727e68cd0 3. The third screenshots is from the detail page in task manager during a session (in case anyone want to see it) https://preview.redd.it/ldhxecdrhl3e1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=5ee127f25296df96b6c1f22e107f09ddb017c52d
5. The last screenshots is after I restarted my laptop. It returns to 37%. https://preview.redd.it/te156zpuhl3e1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=a66e7e1e54fb9821e92816d08c10c9871cca88f4 For context, I know that back in v1.0 there was a memory leak problem. At that time, the game used around 80% of my RAM, which means around 12GB-13GB (my RAM is 16GB). But, I heard that they had already fixed it supposedly. So, I tried to check it and indeed it was āfixedā as back in v1.1 my RAM was hovering around 60%-63% while playing the game. But, after v1.2 until today, this problem is back again. The game is again consuming around 80% in a session, at least in my case. Hereās my Laptop specs (TUF Gaming F15 FX507ZM): - 12th Gen Intel Core I7-12700H 2.30 GHz - Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 - NVMe Intel SSDPEKNUZ512GZ and NVMe Samsung SSD 980 1TB - RAM 16 GB 4800Mhz DDR5 Despite this, I have no performance issues (stuttering or lagging). But, seeing a high usage of my RAM is making me worry, especially when I see that after closing the game, the memory usage isn't back to normal. So, is this a memory leak? If yes, is there anyone who has the same problem as me (cuz it only happens when I play WuWa)? Looking forward for your answer!!! submitted by GilDrumZ25_ to WutheringWaves [link] [comments] |
2024.11.28 07:40 NeverFated Is it still possible to use the Google reverse image search without being forced Google Lens?
So, in the past, you used to be able to reverse search by image and check all the available images from large to small on Google, then at some point Google forced you to only search by Google Lens (but you were still able to click on a link in the Google Lens result to go to the good old reverse image search), but a few days earlier, that option was completely removed.
Therefore, currently I no longer have any way to find the largest image with Google reverse image search, Google Lens has become completely useless at this point (there were already plenty of complaints online about this, but in the past at least we still had an option, but that option is now gone)
For now I'm using Tineye and Yandex as alternatives, Google really need to fix this issue and stop breaking a perfectly functioning product

2024.11.28 07:40 breakitbilly I am a pro-union blue collar man. However police unions should be illegal.
Unions were made to protect the worker from their employers, but police unions just allow cops to act with impunity. Police brutality would go way down and the bad cops could just get fired instead of wrist slaps.
This isn't a union that protects the employee from their employer, this is a union that protects cops from justice.

We all share one thing in this life.
Awareness / Consciousness

Im glad that you showed your boundaries that time.
I learned alot from you and i still gotta learn.My inner voice is completely different from my outer voice i dont like my voice and i have courage because of you, i start to speaking for myself i was completely silent before.
Thank you a lot for that.
Im in control now and im sure you are in control as well, my soul is kinda shattered and in shock now.
You awakened my consciousness you awakened my broken inner child.This whole time i was not playing with your Higher self,i was playing with your kid within. Witch i love him alot.Im talking from my soul now not from my mind my mind is mess,i know.
I forgive everything bad that happened during this whole journey. Will you forgive me?

2024.11.28 07:40 Icy_Bug6675 Cover letter? Please help.
Hi. I have tried searching this online but have not gotten a clear answer: Is a PsyD applicant expected to attach a cover letter along with the CV if a personal statement is also required? One article that one of my schools linked said to attach one, but that was just about CVs in general where one would normally include a cover letter for a job. I do not like being redundant so I would rather avoid crafting a cover letter since I have already written the essays tailored for the schools. But please let me know what you guys did, especially if you have gotten accepted. Thank you!

2024.11.28 07:40 AnonymousMonker First time cooking a turkey and it doesnāt fit in the pot! Help!
No cooking skills but I decided to host Thanksgiving this year. Researched everything about cooking a turkey including buying everything I need for briningā¦. Finally started pouring the cider and water in the pot only to just realize my biggest pot only holds 1 gallon, lol. Itās a 14lb turkey.
My next biggest pot is only about 1/2 gallon. I also have a 3 inch baking dish (irrelevant)?
At this point, it seems like my only option is to cut off parts of the bird and put it in the 1/2 gallon pot? How would I time the cooking? (Was just going with a simple roast with herb butter.)

I had a 3 hour route today and a total of 33 stops / packages I was on my 15th stop when all of a sudden I noticed the last 12 stops disappear. So now instead of having 32 I had 20 it was weird this has never happened to me. I contacted support and they told me to just return the packages back and I noticed I wasnāt the only one With this issue. I called support again to notify them because the associates at the warehouse looked shocked or surprised and they told me why I hadnāt finish my deliveries. I explained to them what happen. Has anyone encountered this problem before ? Afraid itās going to affect my standing especially since it was 12 packages This happened at VAX5 city of industry California
