I’m currently working 60 hr weeks right now, one full time job I genuinely love and one part time one I tolerate because I need to get money in savings for a car downpayment by next summer.

A couple days ago a woman came into the chain bakery cafe where I work and asked for a donut. We do not serve donuts. However, she pointed at the bagels when she said it, and as it was early in the morning I was willing to forgive the mistake. I’m totally the kind of person where if I haven’t had enough coffee I would…
Disbelieving or blaming victims is a society wide problem, but there’s something about small towns that magnifies it. Everyone is just so in everyone esle’s business all the time, reinforcing whatever the popular narrative is.
If you give me a source, I will look at it and see if I can see any major problems or if anyone else has already tried to discredit it. But you have to provide a source. You can’t just repeat whatever numbers you want and have everyone scramble to prove you wrong. The burden of proof is on you. Try turning in any…
Do you actually have a source for the “average age at which a person enters the sex industry” or are you just repeating things that support your POV without actually researching them? Because the the quick search I did points to this being a crap number that’s been debunked but everyone keeps repeating it anyway. It…
At my main fast casual restaurant job, we have a few items that used to be on the menu that corporate discontinued but we still have all the ingredients so there are still buttons on the register for people who know what to ask for. Thankfully I’ve never had anyone try a ‘secret menu’ type order, as I don’t think any…
For my first day as a shift supervisor at my chain restaurant job, 2 people called out sick, including one of my openers who was in the ER. We ended up with a grand total of 5 people covering the entire restaurant for lunch. Which was doable because it was Sat and it’s usually slower, but still very stressful. Also…
Just today I had two different parent/child pairs come into the chocolate shop where I work. Both children were very hyper and excited (because chocolate shop). But there were significant differences.
Well, I ended up missing my night shift/day shift/night shift marathon this last weekend. Thanks, massive debilitating sinus infection that kept me from standing for 3 days!
I just need to rant for a second about my boss. This guy took over bi-weekly inventory from his manager son almost a year ago. He has refused to let anyone else do inventory because they might screw it up. He screws it up CONSTANTLY. Literally every week we run out of things now. We have a supply truck come twice a…
On the one hand, universities as a whole don’t have the best rep these days for...well, a lot of things.
Is going to see Mad Max Fury Road for a 3rd time excessive? Because I have the next 3 days off work, and thanks to my new second job I have enough money this month to pay all my bills AND put money in savings AND do something nice for myself. So I could Mad Max, again. Or I could Jurassic World. Or something else.
Oh god I want her hair.
I’ve written a decent amount of fanfic in my life, but I’m trying to make the crossover into original fiction. I have at least 4 different novel ideas started, including notes on characters and plots. The problem is I can’t seem to get past the world building stage, which is the major thing that writing fanfic hasn’t…
I still have dreams about being halfway through the semester and realizing I’ve been forgetting to go to a class all semester long. And graduated college 4 years ago.
I’ve been looking for new books to read, and was kind of in a romance mood, so this article caught my eye. As much as I love romance books, there are a lot of problematic ones, so finding an author like this is great. I was about to try to wade into where to start when I read this comment. Sounds like as good a place…
For some reason an inordinate number of my customers just cannot pronounce asiago or waldorf. It’s always asagio and wardolf.
There seem to be some very knowledgable people here so maybe someone can help me out.
I’m only watching, not participating, but there’s already a broken side table leg involved.
