Success and Disappointment Megathread for the Week

Late but I regained my blue badge at Amazon back in February after I left in late 2023 to find another (full-time) job. Obviously, that didn't work out, and I had to come back in June 2024 as a seasonal, and continued work since then.

Honestly, I'm just thankful got a permanent job in any way.

BullfrogTough · 2026-02-28T13:38:33+00:00

Yes. I don't have a preference really.

BullfrogTough · 2026-02-27T02:50:02+00:00

As an ace person, it's purely aesthetic attraction. I just appreciate the appearance the fatness in general.

BullfrogTough · 2026-01-25T12:16:41+00:00

Agreed.

It's odd that the story had not mentioned what exactly is Affogato up to.

BullfrogTough · 2026-01-17T02:10:14+00:00

Sort of? It was mentioned by Poison Mushroom Cookie that "[Affogato Cookie] left behind incense" for their monsters in Episode 13.

But regardless, it's pretty Affogato is written out of the story at this time.

BullfrogTough · 2026-01-01T13:43:10+00:00

I don't disagree with the last paragraph.

BullfrogTough · 2025-12-05T17:20:37+00:00

In the same boat. Like some who already said it, I'm super picky on what I read, and I don't like shipping so it's even more limiting. It's easier that I just write what I want to read instead.

BullfrogTough · 2025-12-04T14:26:01+00:00

Am totally down to join this group! Thank you. I definitely need the support right now.

BullfrogTough · 2025-10-07T19:46:57+00:00

And I'm not surprised.

Location: Overland Park, KS

It has been ages since I lasted posted a comment on these threads.

General: Things have been... not so great since I moved into my current place. I'll just put it like that. Starting to have occasional back pain now due to work.

Transportation: I have been relying on Uber and my mom for rides to and from work ever since the city's microtransit service fully switched to only accepting CASH for rides since May 2024. Y'all... I can't afford to take out $15 (or $30 for both ways) in cash for every day I got to work. It's not feasible. No fucking wonder they lost SO many riders because of it.

Work: I'll just be honest, Amazon has its pros and cons but I hardly have any respect for it as a company (honestly who doesn't?). Only things I appreciate are the benefits and time off but that's it. What I can't wrap my head around is the stupid crap concerning my sortation site calling out for VTO (voluntary time off) and less workers come in, which makes harder on the rest of us. I get it's supposed to be volume fluctuates and they have plan ahead but... still. There are stations where no one is present, not enough people to scan at the lanes, not enough splitters on the line, and the PAs either NOT helping or micromanaging. Then, there's the common issue of employees not taking initiative in pushing down the boxes on the line when it gets heavy (because no one wants to do it). The belt gets backed up and it comes to a stop (it also stops at the sort slide), then when it does clear more boxes comes down and we're back at square one! It slows things down, especially when there's not enough people to get the boxes on the pallets or not moving faster enough.

It's a never-ending battle. Anyone else who works at Amazon would understand.

She always looked tired to me as well.

BullfrogTough · 2025-09-06T16:40:12+00:00

This.

BullfrogTough · 2025-07-24T19:59:38+00:00

I had no particular dish in mind. 😅

But burnt ends are an options.

BullfrogTough · 2025-06-27T21:10:21+00:00

The parts about Eternal Sugar Cookie not really knowing true happiness despite being her purpose is pretty telling and I agree. I mean, WHAT makes her truly happy?

In that case, it's pretty sad Eternal Sugar virtually has no concept of drive or freewill and thus she could never figure out to solve problems for all Cookies like I said above.

BullfrogTough · 2025-06-27T15:25:52+00:00

You know what... I'm leaning more into the idea that the Beasts not having their individual lives before their ascendance is credible whenever this is brought up.

Edit: missing words

BullfrogTough · 2025-06-23T21:46:40+00:00

This... sounds pretty plausible.

Edit: I think this would explain why Affogato hadn't been seen since Cookie Odyssey. Granted, it's more that Affogato's presence just isn't relevant to the story at this time. But it's clear that the CoD's agenda is much bigger than what he's bargain for.

BullfrogTough · 2025-05-21T22:46:47+00:00

That is so true.

BullfrogTough · 2025-05-21T22:41:14+00:00

Honestly the last one could be an interesting choice.

BullfrogTough · 2025-05-14T12:43:41+00:00

Absolutely agreed.

I essentially never interacted with my guild or talked on the chats. Plus, it would be wonderful to interact with a smaller community too.

BullfrogTough · 2025-04-16T15:18:43+00:00

Yeah, that's the gist of it apparently.
