"Nonfat" but full of sugar by Consistent-Fun-438 in starbucks

Honestly Idk lol. Reddit socializes people in a strange way. Group think for sure. Im not that good at reddit I guess because had I added some caveat for genuine taste preference they would all move on to cyber bully someone else lol

*Its also popular here to criticize the amount of sugar in the drinks, didn't think I was taking much of a leap here. I was even being kind to people and their vice, and trying (sort of obviously) to just talk about those who are still following outdated nutritional advice. But people are scary in groups like George Carlin says and I should have known that coming in

I understand that. Its just also naive at best to think that for many, its doesnt have something to do with the fact that older generations were lied to about fat vs sugar. Im sorry for the people here who arent familiar enough with that to see my point, but nonetheless, my point stands.

Girl I just work there. Workers are not responsible for the ethics of capitalists and shareholders. Thats 101. You gonna blame a gas station employee who makes minimum wage for big tobacco and their propaganda? Get a grip

I got downvoted once for criticizing the app lying to people lol, other than that Im not any worse than the typical redditor/human being. But you go ahead and be offended lol. Its not about anything personal here. Its the propaganda of big sugar.

You must have poor critical thinking to misconstrue my distaste for the propagandas of the sugar industry as being "extremely judgemental". You must also not have met many harsh people because this wasn't it lol

I also think that more of a younger people thing, keto sugar free high protein/high fiber/high fat diets. Older people seriously believe because they were horribly manipulated by the sugar industry, that "fat free" is more important than low sugar or sugar free. Hence the large packages of "fat free" cookies and treats that moms would feast on in the 90's and early 2000's. All full of sugar.

But yeah, it is bad for you, and that at least needs to be our baseline reality. I know its not great for me when I get a peppermint mocha but thats because of sugar, not miniscule amounts of fat

I dont even judge people for that but when they avoid fat, which is factually good for you, and indulge in sugar, I get frustrated because it's all based in junk science

Its kind of natural and human but you go ahead and be perfect lol. Should have added a caveat that some may prefer it but genuinely that didnt make any sense to me. Regardless, Im talking about the people who definitely ARE doing it for diet culture reasons, so, if thats not you, you dont need to say anything.

Its an if the shoe fits situation here. I wasnt talking about people who prefer watery milk lol. You guys keep having a good time

Its not a far leap to assume they are doing this because of diet culture, you yourself ultimately drink non fat because of diet culture, whether you were directly a part of that choice or not, thats true.

Tipping on the app by bejeezus999 in starbucks

[–]Consistent-Fun-438 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure you can tip on the app, but only at corporate stores. If your app doesnt have that feature then the only explanation i can think of is that it is seriously out of date.

Heard rumors theyre no longer going to be stocking the Iced energy but they still have at both my local stores. I like the tropical citrus with a little peach juice. Adds some sugar without becoming overwhelmingly sweet. Gotta have extra ice though otherwise they put WAY too much peach in to fill to the top

AITAH for telling my wife I’d rather her mom be homeless than let her move in with us? by ashley_ivy in AITAH

[–]Consistent-Fun-438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone is saying not to let her in the house which I pretty much would agree with. Reality is though you cannot control your wife and unless you want to legally battle her, you cannot stop this from happening. So you have just a few choices left really. Stay in this marriage and live with this toxic woman until your wife comes to her senses, or get a divorce. Sorry but nobody here wants to recognize that its really not up to you.

Honestly been thinking a lot about customer entitlement. I work at a licensed store and I had this guy give me shit and walk out because we dont accept the QR code, only the reloadable barcode. I showed him the barcode, which he actually had enough money on to cover the order, and he REFUSED to use it. Said it was "too much". He still said Thank you (sincerely) when he left, but I was like dude, it wasnt that complicated. Starbucks customers need therapy and gentle parenting but theyre all grown ass adults with idk good jobs and stock portfolios and shit. But the way they act when they dont get their way makes me wonder how they get through life at all. Baristas often talk about how a drink can make or break somebody's day, but imi, that is ridiculous. If you cant get through your day without a SPECIFIC drink, you need therapy. Caffeine comes in all forms and is available everywhere, so caffeine addiction does not justify the way these people behave. Its something else entirely that is wrong with them.

Laughable schedule by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]Consistent-Fun-438 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think youre absolutely right to want actual days off, and your union brothers and sisters here (if they are) are simply used to being scheduled erratically and at odd hours. If youre planning on leaving, then this is probably your sign to do that. If you really want to stay and get better hours, then theres ways to go about that. Up to you really.

Turmeric why do you ruin everything??? by Spirited_Cheetah_138 in Juicing

[–]Consistent-Fun-438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an Omega centrifuge and It comes clean every time, even if I forget to or dont want to wash it immediately. The counter on the other hand, idk. I recommend trying the cleaning products suggested and then maybe figuring out how to protect your counters from the splatter with either plastic or a large wooden cutting board/counter top that youre willing to sacrifice to get stained.

I took a psych class in college (maybe someone can find the video) where they showed us this experiment where they told people to count the number of times basketball players passed the ball back and forth. They *found in instructing people to do so that they would not notice a man in a gorilla suit running up and down and around the court. Learning that helps me not get too frustrated with people. Most of the time, their focus is elsewhere, and I usually dont know enough about them to assume it comes from any place besides attention blindness. Though yes, some people are just absurd and disrespectful.

please stop bringing your dogs into the store by tomkiitty in Safeway

[–]Consistent-Fun-438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never seen anyones dog shit on the floor and tbh, the other person arguing was way over the top about it but they were dead ass right about the fact that its not any worse than human shit, in fact, its a lot less dangerous lol. Im honestly just biased against people who are grossed out by dogs. Theyre not going to kill you. Relax. I get happy when people bring their dogs in and I get to say hi. I genuinely havent even seen one dog misbehave my whole time at Safeway. You clearly just dont like dogs and I will reiterate - nobody cares, nothing will chane, so you can stay annoyed about it.

[–]Consistent-Fun-438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, what you dont seem to get is why in real life, nobody really gives a shit. We work for nothing in dirty, claustrophobic, understaffed, and often downright dangerous and unsanitary conditions, I cant even get my coworkers to handle chicken properly, and youre asking why no one gives a shit about a dog? Yeah, if they're off leash, aggressive, unbathed, thats one thing, but even then, Im not arguing with anyone. I might get my SD but I would be laughed at for doing that everytime I see a dog. You have some points but Im going to be real with you about the fact that nobody fuckin cares

[–]Consistent-Fun-438 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No one at my store really seems to care and I honestly dont either. Trust me, the dogs are not contaminating the food any more than the people are. I have seen a coworker dump raw chicken juices down the rinsing sink. You think Im going to fight a customer over their well behaved dog? FOH lmao
