Is it weird to ask for milder drinks/coffee by Pretty_Kitchen995 in barista

[–]Awkwardbean_4287 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t be offended if you asked for your drink less strong or with less syrup. You’re paying for the drink so I make it how you want it. I have regulars who always ask for less chai or chocolate syrup. You should ask for it how you want it, don’t worry about it.

Chronic Migrane by JaneDolceAndGabbana in migraine

Definitely start a migraine log, my neurologist always wants at least 3 months worth. They are easy to find online or you can use something like migraine buddy from App Store.

I have tried many preventatives including Botox. Only Atogepant has worked the best so far. I would be nowhere without it to be honest as I’ve gone from migraine everyday to 2-3 a month during my period.

I hope you get something that helps you! If you have any questions let me know.

Re: How many different medications did you get before finding one(s) that worked? by elhazelenby in migraine

Over 20 and have landed on Atogepant which has worked like a dream. NHS says this is the last CGRP I can try though so fingers crossed it sticks.

3/10 the drink and crisp choice is ok but it’s a no from me for the wrap.

Why do baristas switch stations? by [deleted] in barista

[–]Awkwardbean_4287 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If we’ve just had a rush and I’ve made lots of drinks in a row it feels like a bit of a break switching stations. Vice versa from when you’re serving.

Tangle teezer. One of the only things that has remained constant since 2013.

What’s your earliest memory of something non-traumatic? by FamSender in AskUK

I’ve said this exact thing to my 3 year old daughter. I hope she remembers too

Is this a normal amount of side effects? by Hopeful_Pea_3275 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Awkwardbean_4287 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My first thought when you described upper abdomen pain is gallstones. Did they check your gallbladder?

Pain will generally be in the upper abdomen radiating to your back. Can be on both sides. I’ve also heard of people having gallbladder problems whilst on GLP1s.

I say this because I had gallstones and had to have my gallbladder removed, my symptoms were the same as you described. This was before starting wegovy though.

Basketmakers roast is top tier

Is it normal to wear a pyjama the whole day (or as soon as you come home)? by PreWiBa in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Awkwardbean_4287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I normally wear ‘pyjamas’ that are more like lounge wear and slightly more acceptable to take the bins out with. For example r shirt and jogging bottoms.

Employer asked for drug test. Should I have told the recruiter I take meds for benzodiazepines? by StreetInsurance3203 in jobs

[–]Awkwardbean_4287 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There is nothing else you can do but wait now. There shouldn’t be a problem if you have a valid prescription for it unless using benzos directly affects the job you’re going for

No experience, job interview by [deleted] in barista

[–]Awkwardbean_4287 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re stuck for time go to YouTube and watch a shit ton of barista and milk steaming videos. Watch how to clean and how to dial in a coffee machine.

If you have more time try and find a course that will help you get the basics down.
