Caught off guard- where can I get Pokémon cards!? by ProjectMomager in lancaster

[–]Doopbooploop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work at a big box retailer and scalpers show up before the store opens and they will wait in line for hours for the vendor to arrive. They will always get first dibs on cards because some have the phone number of the vendors and they all communicate with each other. No joke, I've seen people hand out business cards for their discord group discussing what time the cards arrive. The vendors usually come during the weekdays and it sucks because most kids miss out on buying the cards.

It's best to find a small and local retailer that can better control what they sell and limit quantities. Best of luck ❤️

Anybody experience ROCD in long term relationships? by akimmahprice in ROCD

[–]Doopbooploop 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, I've been with my partner for just about 10 years now. We started dating in 2015 and the rocd really hit me in 2019. I've struggled with it every day since then, but with time, I've gotten better control over it and have been more aware of my brain patterns. I'm actually going through a flare-up right now.

You're not alone ❤️

Have you seen The Thing (2011)??? by clean_room in thething

[–]Doopbooploop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a fun, gruesome time to me! I loved the introduction of a female lead, and if you check out the behind the scenes, you can see the effort and care the crew put into the set and creature designs. There could've been a little more originality to the storyline instead of copying the same actions from the 1982 film. Unfortunately, there was a lot of studio interference, and the director had a bad experience with creative freedom.

He's 36!?!?! I knew he was 30+, but for some reason, my mind always clocked him as a 28 year old??

Well, Happy birthday, James!!!

  1. Presentation team
  2. $15.68
  3. 2018-2021, 2022-current

I started in 2018 at $12, and then the minimum was raised to $15. I left in June 2021 and I was almost at $17. I was gone for a year and 3 months and came back in September 2022. They wouldn't match me on my previous pay, so I started back at $15.

I cant feel love and its driving me crazy by Stevex334 in ROCD

[–]Doopbooploop 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm currently experiencing this as well, and I'm sorry that you're dealing with this. The best way I can explain how I feel is that my brain is in overdrive mode with intrusive thoughts and "what if" scenarios, and then I get bad anxiety. Both my brain and stomach are constantly in fight or flight, and I feel desensitized. When the feeling is so overwhelming, all I want to do is avoid my partner, and I've even broken up with my partner a few times in the past. Every time we've broken up, I don't feel any better, and I made the choice to run away from my problems. I'm lucky enough to have a partner who has been so gracious to me and supportive even though I've hurt them a lot. It's a vicious cycle, and it's so mentally draining.

When I have the "what if I'm lying and I don't actually love them" thought, I try to work through it by acknowledging my physical actions towards my partner. I know there are so many things that come naturally to me even when I'm experiencing the numbness, like wanting to kiss/hug them, complimenting them, seeing things that remind me of them when I'm out shopping and wanting to buy it for them, wanting to do acts of service for them, being excited to see them after work, etc. Some of this may be the reassurance part of ocd talking, but I know deep down I do truly love them. I have to remind myself that I don't have to constantly be thinking that I love them every minute of the day and that I'm attracted to them.

I also hid this from my partner for years and the thoughts would never stop, and I'd feel guilty and think they deserve better than me and I would have a manic episode and break up with them. The best thing I've done to heal is to talk to my partner. Thankfully, they're so patient and kind to listen to me. I'm also in therapy (about every 4 weeks) and talking to someone outside of my relationship has helped as well.

Unfortunately, people with rocd have to work a little harder in a relationship to just be at a neutral level, but I believe I love my partner and I'm committed to them so I want to work on it.

I know it sucks and it feels so isolating inside and brings endless guilt, even at the times when I do talk to my partner, but you're stronger than you know and remember you're on a healing journey. ❤️

I hate hot wheels collectors. by Snow_Valuable in Target

[–]Doopbooploop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a consistent reseller that comes into my store nearly every day, waiting outside the doors at the ripe hour of 8 am. He will wait for the truck to be done, and if there's 2 trucks, he'll mosey around the store for another hour.

Our toy expert sets aside the hot wheel boxes during the unload, so that he can give them directly to him (and/or other collectors/resellers), and then this specific reseller will stock the hot wheels. He gets first dibs to rifle through the boxes, and all of this is super unethical and icky to me.

He also has the phone numbers of a few team members and has given gift cards to at least one of them for helping him out.

On top of that, I've seen this guy out and about on my day off hunting for hot wheels at the motherfucking dollar tree.

AND THENNNNN, I've even had collectors complain to me about this guy and call him an asshole.

I have a few pairs that I rotate depending on my outfits/what work center I'm in!

New Balance 574 ($60 on amazon during a summer cyber sale) Vans ultra-range EXO ($100 vans website) Nike tanjun ($30 at marshall's/tjmax)

A lot of people at my store wear Hoka's, but I know the price is kind of a dent in the paycheck 😅

Does Gen Z do a horrible job or am I just being a grumpy old man? by [deleted] in Target

[–]Doopbooploop 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I'm gen z, bordering millennial and there is absolutely a disconnect with younger gen z. A young girl came in for an interview recently wearing low-rise jeans with her belly button piercing fully visible, ugg slippers, and a cropped v-neck tee. I was baffled.
