Etsy help?

Journal Entry: Wed Aug 20, 2008, 1:46 AM
  • Mood: Uneasy
I really need help choosing an Etsy shop name. If anyone has some ideas, I'd be thrilled to read them!


.

So... Friday I start work rather late in the day, and on my way in, a manager stops me and asks if I'd like to transfer to another department where I'd get more pay, and training to make me more marketable in time. Sounds good, I say "Sure!" Openings there don't come up often, and who wouldn't want to make more money? I have him walk me through which options I have to select to make this happen.

I talk to the guy whose in charge of the area, and he's thrilled by my interest, and wants me in his area ASAP. The first manager apparently sang my praises to him, and he wants me to start by the end of this week. Sounds good... until he opens the requisition and I'm not listed. I'm rather surprised by this, being that I had help making sure I'd sign up for the right things. Uh... no. I'm not. So I go back and find all the other possible openings, and for good measure check the pay grade for them.

The same as what I'm currently at.

The real kicker? I'm thinking that since they are talking so much with each other, they've told my current boss that they want me. NOPE! I dropped that bomb on her today. She wasn't thrilled, either. Didn't sound as if she'd block me from going, but not a happy camper.

Smokey : "Oh, THAT was a harem, alright! I know a harem when I see one!"

Yes; my PC died, and my Mac won't allow for me to do more than look at front pages, and without a perfect memory for names... it was too vexing to try keeping up. So how is Pacifica Skies coming along?

Well, there's been some forward progress lately: now up to 6 chapters finished, in line for a editor's touch. Still a way to go before the manuscript is finished, but with the cover art done, it's been helping me to visualize the end.

What do you think of the cover art? Especially Jeanne? :)

Don't state the obvious, people don't like it when reality proves them wrong.

Because the human body is so disgusting we must all walk around with our eyes closed just incase we see a nipple or heaven forbid a penis!

You're very welcome! Sometimes the good ponies get lost in the less amazing ones online here.

Let it be known that today I had to price the MLPs at the local W*M ($5 +tax), knowing that other than the varnish to seal any fresh paint I put on one, the only thing holding me back from making a pony of my own is a need to hold onto my current level of funds and... skill in making them! (smiles) I've got too many hobbies already, sniffle...!

Thank you! Wow I,um, thanks!

Well if it makes you feel any better - to buy a new pony over here costs almost double what you guys pay. That's why I always try to recycle unwanted ponies!

You have the skill! But yeah I'd have to admit that I have probably spent a small fortune on ponies!

I understand that a =lot= of things over there are more expensive, so I'm not surprised. That $5 price =is= a sale price, but they are still fairly reasonable even without the sale price, to work from a new pony. They even sell some of the Rainbow Dash "styling ponies" for a bit under $20. I'd offer to buy and ship to you, but I'm pretty sure the shipping rates are killer. (grins)

The problem is that if something costs say $16.99, over here it will be £16.99, which at the moment would be $24.86! I know shops can't keep changing their prices to match the conversion rates but still!

That is a good price for a styling pony but with postage included it would equal the same if not a little more than if I got it over here! So it's only really worth it if it's something that is stupidly rare over here. Thanks anyway though.
