Also, willing to bet the woman has never ordered a pizza in her life. It's probably in her contract or something. NO. PIZZA. EVER.

Yeah, not to mention the post traumatic stress of coming from a horrible boss to a good one. It's sad how often I had to remind myself that it's okay to ask questions/get clarification on things when I started. It's good to be somewhere you're appreciated and your employer truly invests in you, not just with training…

I regret not quitting the job I hated. Once I realized it and started looking for ways out, I knew my boss wasn't happy with me either. I wanted to wait until I definitively had a new gig, and the advice I got was "let her fire you." I didn't start messing up on purpose, but things quickly went downhill. She did fire…

Looking forward to the day when benevolent hackers get my account info and auto pay my bill for me indefinitely. Too much to ask, I guess.

I worked in restaurants for 5 years. I went Dansko and never went back. It made all the difference in my leg/lower back/shoulder pain that was so common at the end of my shifts. They're not cheap up front, but they last forever. $120/5 years - $30 a year. Cheap shoes are, what, $30/pair and you have to replace them…

Please — PLEASE. No more fashion bloggers. No one cares that you somehow afford designer clothes without gainful employment and drink juice. Literally no one.

You'd think his music would be cooler/would appeal to people who are not 13 year old girls if he 's really doing all those drugs.

How late am I to the Kim K definitely got her nose done party?

Can't tell you how many of my crossfit/paleo cult friends, when they get drunk will happily dig into a 3am pizza or burrito with the rest of us though.

Nope, not the same amount of work. Not even in the slightest.

This is why everyone should spend at least a year waiting tables.

Eh...11% increase? Not gonna worry too much. I'll be in my office.

I'm in the wholesale side of the wine biz, previously on the retail/restaurant end — I could not afford the wines I sell to people on my salary and commission. And, like fashion, you're somewhat forced into living in an expensive part of the country and to have really high end wine/food knowledge, which means spending…

San Francisco puh-leeeeeze??

Another thing that has happened in the last 10 years - people aren't paid as well as they used to be 10 years ago. So someone had a kushy corporate six figure job in 2002, left to have a kid, and now wants to step back into that role with the same salary and job expectations? Sorry. Companies are paying much less for…

I've been reading the coverage of all this with a look of fear and disgust for the last two days. Thanks for writing something that made me laugh. +1, sir. Or ma'am.

I live in the SF Bay area and public transit really isn't much cheaper than driving on a day-to-day basis. I reverse commute from San Francisco to the east bay, and it takes more than twice as long (one hour and 15 minutes vs 35 minutes) and costs about $15.00/day. My time is valuable so I choose to drive, especially…

Thank you! I'm all for cancer prevention, but is it really so horrible for people to look their age? The women in my family shunned the sun their whole lives and definitely aren't passing for someone 20 years younger. Not that there is anything wrong with that. So much of aging has to do with where you live and…

Thank you for asking this question! I think about it a lot. I'm not in a rush, but if/when I decide to have kids is probably when I'll get married. That seems like the best reason to be married to someone. For both good reasons, and if things go south. I could be wrong, but it seems the legal remedies for a divorced…
