It’s literally a perk of interning at these places. I guess the San Francisco career scene is getting as shit as people say it is. My firm used to have an outpost there and closed it bc the VC practice could work out of NY just as easily without the HR shitshow that is the tech scene in Silicon Valley.

Right? Christ.

It was the same thing in my home town. I love Aldi’s, actually, I love any time I can get a great deal. Better the money stay in my pocket than some store’s. When I was in high school, some new money trash in the PTA cracked at my mom for shopping there, and my mom, Queen of the Mean Moms, shot back, “I’m sure your…

I was in banking for a few years and the market was saturated with young female realtors who would pull this shit around my male co-workers all the time to get referrals. It was so embarrassing and unprofessional. Haha, yes, Tiffany, I totally believe that it was an accident that your tits just flew out of your dress…

Yeah, this guy has no home training and doesn’t know how to behave when company is in the house. Why did someone have to tell him that stinking the place out is a thing you’re not supposed to do? I swear some guys are actual animals.

Fucking thank you. I have a slate of interns at all times. If we’re out at ***any*** even tangentially related work event, out comes my company card and they all get fed. No booze, but that’s my personal rule bc I refuse to be the one with the messy interns, but they get to eat whatever they want. They get paid well…

Who are the cheap motherfuckers who are making the interns to pay for shit? If you have interns, the point of that is to bring them along in the field- networking, training, skill-building, etc, whether on the clock or off. Jesus Christ. Pay for the fucking charcuterie board and their drink at the events, especially…

This is a complete no-brainer. It’s never on the wronged party in a customer service situation to suggest how the establishment should provide restitution for a fuck up. This is such basic restaurant managing that I can't believe so many places fuck it up. The waiter apologizes and gets the manager, who comps the meal…

Yes, thank you so much for my tiny slice of Sysco cheesecake and look! It even has the gelatinous red ooze they try to pass off as raspberry ‘coulis’ on the plate!

Except for the entire episode they set where Hawkeye takes a jeep to Panmunjom to interrupt the Peace Talks.

Upstate NY. And from the description of his duties, it sounds to me like he is an executive chef.

My brother has been a chef for 20 years. The only time he has made less than $100k/ year at one job (not counting side catering gigs) was when he was the Chef/GM at TGIFridays his first year out of culinary school. And that gig paid roughly $90k. And that's standard for chefs at regular restaurants here. Is this guy…

I guess this is my whole thing. Someone wrote into a column about restautant etiquette to ask how to tell her brother to shut the fuck up. I’m guessing she wanted to do it while having someone tell her she wasn’t being a baby.

Why don't you make me?

We’ve all been referring to whineass behavior as ‘Ashley’ since I started dating this guy. 

The hostility comes from people feeling called out, no more, no less. This person is acting like a baby and everyone seems to want to enable her. 

Thats a question for her shrink, not a waitress

I’m sorry, what? The whole question is whining. Her brother helped her do something she doesn't do well and she doesn't like that he helped her even though it was helpful. What part of that isn't whining?

Being aware of your whiny behavior doesn’t make it less whiny. Just self-centered.

Cclearly not, if her brother thinks she needs help. Also, she says his tips were helpful. Shes just being whiny. We could replace grilling with any other activity and her question would have still been the same ‘my brother was right and I’m mad about it bc I want to do it all on my own’ pout. It’s childish and…
