Took a while since most of them were larva when i grabbed them, but it looks like I grabbed a bunch of Larder Beetle larva too when I harvested the Barkers!!!! I have at least 4 adult larders running around in the Barkers tank!

I haven't had larders in forever! I forgot their larva look exactly the same as dermestid beetle larva so no wonder I grabbed a few. I'm going to set them up in their own little place. They're slower to breed than DBs and they're not as good at cleaning delicate bones, but I'd love to keep them around nonetheless.

Larder beetles!!!!! Look at their little tapir markings 🥺

[nabsthevulture]

Their tank has been set up and they have been named "The Tappers" or their nickname The Little Taps, after their tapir markings.

I will move them over to the new tank tomorrow and get them some food to munch on. I think The Barkers are giving them the side eye like "why are there giants in here" so I won't leave them in there too long lol.

Everyone else is still degreasing and getting on my last nerve. I'm about to bust out the acetone and I usually only use that on goats and pigs

[nabsthevulture]

stellar offer, thanks I guess?

You should absolutely be able to report employers to some kind of official agency when they ghost your applications and messages, ESPECIALLY when they say "give us dates when we can call you!" and they completely just ignore you once you've offered them.

I spent the last two days glued to my phone (minus when it was in my room and i fell twice running to go get it lmao) waiting for these people about this kennel tech position and they've totally ignored every message I've sent them.

I am trying to not go down the 'this is transphobia' hole, but my resume does have both my legal and preferred name on it, this particular facility is run by someone that used to train police K9s (didn't know that when i applied, yikes, my fault for not checking) and 'police fans' (as i will nicely call them) tend to be bigots, soooooo. Idk.

If it was transphobia then fine, I don't want to work there anyway. If it truly just is the business severely dropping the ball and not being courteous or aware of applicants time, I still don't know if I want to work there. My last several jobs have been chaos because of mismanagement and people not having their shit together and I don't want to deal with that.

I don't know. I was excited because it would be perfect and its close to home but I am just left disappointed. The job market is shit and it's been shit, so I dont know why i was expecting this to be any different. Experience be damned I guess.
