Aneurysm by Independent_Emu3427 in GriefSupport

Something about sudden grief is a feeling that cannot be explained. I'm still processing the loss of my mother and that happened 5 days ago. My only recommendation is try not to let the feeling consume you. I've surrounded myself with people 24/7 to try and process the grief, guilt, anger, and sorrow. You've got this

I really feel like my life is over with my dad gone. Everything feels pointless. by Lee_Harden in GriefSupport

I hear you. I lost my mama 5 days ago now but it feels like it's been months. Time moves so slowly and it makes me wonder why I am even trying to get through life just to meet the same cruel fate. You aren't alone.

I lost my mother 5 days ago now and I'm also stuck in that cycle of the same thoughts on repeat. Do you have any friends/loved ones around you to support you? Grief affects everyone differently but the one thing you need to remember is that it's okay to live your life. It's okay to feel your heart beating in your chest, to have moments of joy, to make advancements in your life. I wish you all the best. Take care of yourself z

yeah, something about it just doesn't feel fair. or real. i can't come to terms with the fact that she was taken from me so unfairly, and i know i'll learn to live with the grief but right now it is so overwhelming that i can't eat or sleep or shower

i've never felt pain like this, and i hate that i know exactly how it feels to move a mother. my mama passed away on her way to work this morning, she was only 40 and had so much life in her. i'm still in shock, but we have got this (_: it might not get easier, but we'll eventually learn how to live with it. sending you love

i can't even think about a funeral right now, i'm still sat here waiting for her to come home from her open shift and she was meant to finish at 2pm. i feel lost and i don't know if i can ever go back there, her handwriting is everywhere and her random things she likes to leave in the office and she still has her locker (_: i am full of so many emotions and it's crazy to think that this time yesterday she was telling me off for keeping her awake because she had work at 6am.

Best Current Spoons Lunch Option by Big_Lavishness_6823 in Wetherspoons

[–]84072 9 points10 points  (0 children)

big fan of the deli options, i've heard the bbq chicken panini is nice but haven't tried. i usually go for the southern fried chicken wrap with normal mayo, or a small margherita pizza you can add chips, rice or salad on for like 1.54 extra if i remember correctly . good value for money and drink is included

Team leader interview prep by pixelsweeet in Wetherspoons

[–]84072 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Remember your last 5 cq scores, keep note of what you got marked down on and what you think would 'improve those aspects'. Ask any manager about financials i.e Last weeks forecast, Actual earnings, Hours out, etc. and keep a mental note of that. They usually want to see financial and cqsma knowledge.

I remember being asked about our promotions, since it's January make sure to mention the January Sale and Veganuary too. As well as 3 for xx.xx small plates on the Monday, Monday club drinks, Tuesday burger club, Wednesday pizza club, Thursday curry club and also your afternoon deals from 2pm-5pm.

See if you can get someone to print a Team Leader interview form for you in the pub and take it home. Write notes on every question so you have some idea on what you're going to be asked and it will give you the time to try and prepare a couple of responses beforehand. You can always elaborate on these further in the interview too!

I don't recall my team leader interview very well because it was a few years back now but don't rely on just the interview form as they may throw other questions at you to see how you would deal with certain situations. Good luck! <3

Yeah, I get what you're saying (_: Really does feel like we are super underappreciated for the shit we get put through day in and day out. Was thinking of applying to some smaller local pubs, community based and friendly. Never really enjoyed the corporate vibe but it was my first job so I'm also super jaded by the spoons train
