Buy one for your wives and say you bought them flowers that fluoresce and grow!

Had a blast! Messed the end of the sale cuz I was fighting the 3d printer. But cought up this morning.
They look great but not much into stickers.
You don't understand my anxiety!!!!!!
I can't stand the idea of letting people down or having people dislike me. LOL
I know it's all in my head, but the struggle is REAL!
If they cared what you thought they would treat you right. And your coworkers know what you're up against too.
I won!!!!!

We'll, the instructions are vague and the display has other route options different from the instructions, so that was unhelpful. I tried to level it and then did the following on my first print.

So I thought it needed to me leveled then the magnetic cover taken off...

Now I'm 3 "how to level" videos deep with a ruined print surface. Any advice? I'm all ears here.

What I think was happening was after I'd level it would drop lower to start the print. Bed's already wrecked so I'll try one more time before going back home to the store.

I understand. I see it every day at work myself, even more so after promoting. Now I have to reprimand people that I've worked with for 17 years... I feel like I'm letting them down even though they're the ones that actually let me down. You're in the same place. The company is letting you down but it makes you feel like you're letting them down if you leave.
Well said Tim! Says a lot about someone's character.

I have a glass bed installed on mine. I have never printed directly to the print bed. Is the filament that is stuck to it not able to be scraped off?

Nah, that's a scratched bed. The nozzle cut in. Edit, I think the center may be a little higher than the corners, or I'm bad at leveling.

I made it to work with a 40 min power nap...
The tension in here is ridiculous. And I'm ready to quit today... ugh
Just keep making jokes or something...its not like they are going to fire you. The best part about this situation is...YOU have the control. You're leaving anyways, so do whatever the hell you want..lol
