@xvz: I'm with the babies and toddlers. Or rather, I'm training for those age groups. Been out of work since last week since it's the holidays. And from what I've seen and heard, covid's made it where we all have to wear masks, kids in the school age group are expected to wear them, we clean and sanitize twice as much, and certain activities are not allowed. Kids can't play dress up or play in a sandbox since it's hard to disinfect between kids.
It's like... a paint. You pour it into a bottle and use a tip that has a sort of brush on it. I'm trying to see if I can find a video of it. I did find this video of the process leading up to it going to the department to get that one it. How Its Made: Windshield Edition This video here is a bit closer to it. It's the process but when the machine's do the work. Priming Robot
I twisted back in late July or so. It's healed to where I can walk on it and it not hurt like when it first happened.

@xvz: It's also a matter of not knowing which parents have the mindset to believe everything their kids tell them and think that their kid does no wrong. I'm all for believing your kid when they say something happened and getting to the bottom of it. But no child is perfect. Shoot, no one is perfect. We all act out to a point. We've had kids tell their parents that one of the teachers was bringing an Xbox in. Which is far from the truth. The teacher was asking the class what they were wanting for Christmas and the sort of stuff they wish could be brought to the classroom. Gaming systems were mentioned and the teacher made the remark that it was something that the boss would have to decide on. One kid decided that meant the teacher was going to sneak it in. As for working at the daycare, I'm liking it a lot. The school age kids honestly are a bit much for me to handle by myself so when I was given the chance to move to a different age group, I was happy to take it.
It's like an adhesive. There's two parts to it, a clear and a black. The clear makes it so the black sticks to the glass. And it's an interesting place to work at. Got to be careful depending on where you work in there as glass can hurt you badly. I haven't really gotten cut by glass but know of some who had some rough accidents. And the decision to go to the daycare was kind of random. I was on light duty for twisting my ankle at the glass factory (it's mostly better now but I don't think it will ever get to 100%) so my hours were cut. Then I wound up with a cold and they made me and the person who gave me a ride to and from work get tested for covid. Results were negative for both of us. But she decided she couldn't risk giving me a ride anymore so I had no way to work. So I pretty much had to quit. And was looking for a new job when I got the offer to work at the daycare. I took it as it's a lot closer to home. I'm not really bummed about losing the job at the glass place since I had been looking for a new job closer to home for awhile.

@DiabolicalDame: They do say we are our own worst critic. I know I tend to be very hard on myself, even more when it's something I'm super passionate about.

@Kent: Working in the media center sounds fun. Maybe not having to supervise kids, though. Hopefully the kids know how to mind themselves as well as can be expected for their ages. And winter break is always nice.

@Ouja Akuma: Yeah, seeing the amount of items in the museum make my eyes go so wide. And then I'm like, "I want them all!"
I agree that the curfew isn't going to solve anything. And if this is the same governor I have, I'm thinking that his thought process might have been that he knows he can't shut places completely down so he does this as a compromise (?). It doesn't affect me much as I don't go places that late at night. That stuff stopped back when Walmart stopped being open 24 hours.

@xvz: Oh, definitely. I've noticed that kids usually are more open to changing their behavior than adults. But it's not always a guaranteed thing. And I get you on the extra responsibility with the super younger kids. I try to be the best role model I can be for any age group. But it can be tough, especially when certain things clash with how a parent is raising their kids. An example is how I always stress to kids that when someone talks bad about you, that you can't just go after them and try to fight them. Or even really return the favor of talking bad about the ones talking about you. But I've known of parents who think that standing up for yourself means doing one of those two things.
It is. I've been learning that the hard way. I started out inspecting the windshields. You know, making sure there were no scratches or defects. Then I transferred to the department that puts the stuff that seals the windshield into the space on the car as well as make sure the place for the mirror was on there. I liked the work, though I probably ruined a lot of shirts and pants when I was one of the ones who put a paint-like substance around the edges of the windshields. That stuff splattered a lot, especially during the summer when it got runny.
No problem. It is fun to come up with the designs and making them. Hm, I don't really have a favorite scout. I like all of them, though my Sailor Moon collection would probably say I'm more for Sailor Moon herself.

@xvz: I do enjoy working with them. Moreso than working with adults. Sure, kids can be pain in the rears but they're young and can learn from mistakes. Some adults that I used to work with acted worse than kids and you couldn't get them to see how they might need to change how they acted. It is a career shift but not quite from advertising/graphic design. While graphic design is a field I still want to work in, it's been more of a side job as there are very few positions like that near me. And the ones that do pop up have alluded me when I applied. So I figured that given how I wanted to work at a preschool sort of setting years ago, that I would put focus on that as it's easier to get a job. Before the daycare, I worked for an automotive glass factory. Easy work but some of the coworkers were awful and management could have been better.
And same. I respect teachers a lot. Even more now after working with school age kids. Those guys can be a handful! But no matter how much they would act out, I still like the kids. I'm actually training to work with infants and toddlers now. Which has been a nice change.
Kunshan Jiayue Pins is the name of the pin factory I use. I think it's easy to order as long as you know what you want. But if you have any questions, they work with you. And yeah, it's why people have to be super careful with how they word their descriptions and plan their designs.
Right now, I just has this butterfly pin. It's a Sailor Moon inspired butterfly. I got the designs for the other sailor scouts planned out but I can't afford to have them produced yet. I have some other designs not related to this pin in the works as well.

@Dimples: It really is. I mean, I want all the pretties. But choosing just one or two to really focus on is tough for me. It's like... I want to make outfits out of all of them but I have no idea where to start, haha.

@Ouja Akuma: I agree. I love the attention to details. The items don't look like they were just quickly made. It's like they took their time to make sure it was the best they could do.
Most of our gas stations have stayed open. I think a couple might have a couple hours each night where they close so they can clean.

@Totalanimefan: In a way, it's probably good that there isn't a lot of ultra rare items.
Yeah, as long as you are compensated for your work at the end of the day, that is all that matters.

@Dimples: I usually have to hide the hands behind the character/person's back to get out of drawing them, haha.

@Dimples: Lookin' good! I really love how you did the eyes. Eyes (and hands) tend to me my weakness when it comes to drawing.
