Guys, this is probably the only time I can brag about this (even though I try often), but when I was 19, some guy filmed a scene from a Lifetime movie in the cool hip clothing store I worked at and I was the bitchy store clerk (in real life AND in the movie). I was literally in 3 seconds of the movie but I was SO…

this is happening where I live, so two interesting notes on the law:

"and it's a good thing if there's one more outlet out there, trying to make stuff women want to see"

Is the implication here that women don't like Oscar-Bait or "splodey" movies? Because literally every woman in my life will fight you.

I have mistakenly handed delivery driver's & servers "extra" money. Usually, it's just like this case and I accidentally give a $5 more than needed. I can totally see how this may have started out as an honest mistake. Because I'm bad with cash and sometimes I space out on basic math...

Yikes. I bet he yelled at her before he yelled at you. I hope she dumped him ASAP.

"Get the fucking owner and the manager on the phone, I want that motherfucker's job. I want him fired."

I work at a pizza place (higher end, but still pizza) and the drivers do NOT make that much. Minimum wage + tips, and they have to pay for their own gas, car maintenance, insurance, and parking meters when they're waiting for orders to be ready for delivery. And the stories they tell are AMAZING (as in, I am amazed…

Slightly off topic, but related: It makes me mad that pizza places have started charging delivery fees that don't go to the driver. You pay the guy minimum wage AND make him use his own car and buy his own gas; where is the cost to you? Pizza delivery used to be free and now you're charging for it, and passing NONE of…

Agreed. My orders are usually around 15 and the drivers always get a tenner. And, while it wasn't my intent, I will admit = getting my food in record time is a lovely bonus. (I've lived in the same place long enough that all the places I order from know me, which I've realized is awesome on SO many levels!).

Indeed. When you're too drunk to drive and too drunk to cook and more than drunk enough to be hungry, the delivery driver is there to bring you food. If your friend did that for you, you'd worship them forever.

How can you hate on delivery drivers? They bring HOT DELICIOUS FOOD TO YOUR DOOR you lazy fuck.

Just another chance for them to demonize any sort of help for people who might not be rich or well-connected; make it sound like anyone can use EBT to buy fast food, even if you don't flat-out say so, and that's what people will remember, even if the more in-depth articles mention the omitted details.

She's using the word luxury, but what she's really taking about is comfort. Putting aside the very real issues (lack if a kitchen, supplies, etc.), people like this don't think that the poor should have the tiniest bit of comfort. Little things most of us take for granted on a daily basis.

The subtext is obviously that poor people don't deserve anything other than the bare-ass minimum needed to stay alive. If they want something nice or tasty or fun to make their lives a bit more pleasant, then they need to grab their bootstraps and earn that right. Until then, fuck 'em.

The prosecutor is using Sideshow Bob's reasoning on this:

What?? You are not understanding. This is an article discussing a "legal situation" and a court filing in a pending court case. It is not "my phrasing;" it is the phrasing used in federal employment discrimination law, and the phrasing used by Saks' lawyers in their motion. I was quoting their court filing, as well as…

I vote any politician suggesting cuts to food stamps should have to live off them for a minimum of a month before being allowed to change the law. That way, if they still cut it, they can't claim it's because it allows for frivolous things. It'll be because they're that determined to fuck people over.

No, the jury's not still out, you ignorant piece of shit.

i feel really uncomfortable using the term suicide with a 10 year old.
