    Uh @FranC I know the process Is confusing and weird and difficult.

    I have never NOT considered the WV job since I ACCEPTED it. I have ONLY been doing WV stuff.

    This is completely normal, they are doing what they do to everyone. It's extensive and it takes a while to complete all the dots, they drown you in stuff.

    But no, like I said, once I accept a position I follow through on it It's just the government that's all.

    Just-- pretend like the "provisional" (we will now do our government crap) and then we negotiate start date.

    I have accepted. They can be upset with anything on my application but really that is up to THEM. They have to decide if I am DECENT and all that, and it takes a while.

    I am slowing down the application a couple of days because I need to resign before my current position is unpleasant and says nasty things about me gotta get my ducks in a row.

    NO, I am not reconsidering WV at ALL I am super happy. I am applying for the benefits I earned because NOTIHNG is certain in this world. I need to be able to eat and have medical care. I don't expect it to last forever and my hope is WV says "YEP" like ASAP.

    But *I* have to get a couple things straight. Since I have the time to do it I am doing ti before I send in my background check which will then start.

    Etc.

    They're not on their way out. Most things that appear in their 2 Clearance sections (especially in quantity) have been bought from other shops that closed. I was told they've just recently bought the entire inventories of 3 more vape shops, that closed in Texas. They'll be adding things to their website for quite awhile yet from those and will be buying more as other shops close.
    Well that's good to know (haven't even looked at the site or ordered for awhile) I did have a good experience with them... they were out of stock of a flavor I ordered and the guy called me personally and asked if the could sub one and also threw in an extra for free :)

    I vape at least 70% PG because of VG adding to much sweetness. It doesn’t cause dryness for me. I think it comes from some flavors but what do I know.....LOL
    I guess we are very different... I love the natural sweetness of VG (but not so much the sweet flavors... we agree on that)
    It could very well be flavors bothering you ( I had a pre-made juice that really gave me issues... not really sure why)

    What makes a juice drying to the mouth? I have heard it is sucralose. Is that true or are there other factors? Do you think the most commonly used sweetener is sucralose?

    Some flavors have alcohol in them. I can’t remember what it was but there was a fruit I used a long time ago and it dried my mouth. I found out it had alcohol and had to steep with the cap off for a day or two.

    I got my lab results today. My cholesterol is a little high. I didn’t fast before having blood drawn because I didn’t know they were going to. I don’t know how much if any affect it has on the results. The doctor said just watch my diet and exercise. I admit I can work on the diet but do try to exercise. I could really stand to do more though.

    I use all possible ways to lesson the sweetness of my vapes.

    Could someone please tell me what is a good sweetener that isn't hard on coils?


    I currently use Cap super sweet at 0.50 %, I used to use TFA sweetener at 1.0 %. I am happy with the Cap, I have never tried any others. :|

    I can never help with that one. Don’t use sweetener.
    I don't either that's why I was asking, lately I've gotten tired of the same old and was wanting to mix it up. But if it destroys coils I will just have to keep doing what I've been doing for years and vaping flavors with no sweetener as I don't like rewicking more than once a week.

    I’ve been using cap super sweet. I recently got sugar daddy but haven’t used it much to tell how it is on coils.

    Does it affect negatively affect your coil longevity?

    I know you didn’t ask me but I would say it depends also how much liquid you run through it.

    I don’t use sweetener because I can’t vape much sweetness. Has nothing to do with gunking coils.

    I have used them in several recipes, and some of the lighter flavored juices they are good for a week. lately though I have been vaping some coil gunkers, and it's not just the sweeteners in them that is causing it. :|
