I got a great winter coat at land's end. It was a generous 2x that wasn't baggy or frumpy.

It's usually about 2 weeks for me, even with customization. It usually arrives 1-2 days before they say it will.

I was discussing this on another forum where people in all seriousness were arguing that it isn't common sense to know not to bother a service animal and that we shouldn't expect that people will know this. Seriously.

Yeaaah. I don't think you need to necessarily love your job, but you need to not actively hate it and it needs to not make you miserable. We spend so much of our lives working, there's no point in spending it a job that we despise, if we can help it.

perfect gif is perfect.

It's dangerous because when the next customer comes in and is truly allergic to something, the server is going to remember this person who claims that the allergy goes away when it's ground up. There is nothing wrong with saying "I cannot eat x item, please leave it off." And then send it back if it's wrong. You don't…

YES, this, exactly. Also, if you say you are allergic to nuts/gluten/whatever when you're not allergic, you just don't like them/upset your stomach/etc, you make a shit ton more work for the kitchen. If you are really allergic, they need to make your food in a separate area with different utensils to avoid cross…

Then just say "I can't eat whole ones but ground up are okay." No one will instantly assume it's because of bowel issues; they would probably think whole nuts are hard on the teeth or something. Saying "allergic" when it isn't an allergy is fucking stupid, and harmful to people who DO have actual allergies.

I don't think people are less intelligent or competent for asking questions. Asking questions is a sign of you being self-aware of what you do and don't know and humble enough to realize you don't actually know everything (no one does). Throwing a raging bitchfit because your order doesn't match your expectations…

I never had to take any drug tests when I worked retail or foodservice, but that has been a long time ago. I never had to take any drug tests when I was a public school teacher or now as a graduate teaching assistant; however, the university tried to write drug testing into our collective bargaining agreement and it…

Yep, contacts are like insulation between your eyes and the onionness, or something. If I'm wearing my contacts onions are nothing, but if I'm wearing my glasses, it's crying for dayz.

If I'm wearing my contacts while cutting onions, they don't bother me at all. But if I'm wearing glasses instead? Tears everywhere.

My daughter's favorite food is spaghetti, and she also likes ravioli, but won't eat lasagna or baked ziti. IT'S PASTA, SAUCE, AND CHEESE. rar.

As a meat eater, I find peppers, onions, garlic, carrots, and potatoes delicious and can't imagine not eating them! Especially peppers and onions... om nom nom.

Or just one friend named Ron Swanson.

Ah yes, because that's clearly the most important thing about having a baby, how it feels for the guy when they have sex again. *eyeroll*

I've done that before, haha. Tried to make sense of her homework when she had no clue (it's rare for her to come to me with homework problems) and I had even less of a clue than she did. So I wrote the teacher a note that was basically "she made an honest attempt at this homework, I have no idea how to help her,…

Uh, except they aren't going to be students there forever. It's not like everyone in the entire town is off limits to ya.

It should be a total ban, period.
