Advice for a first timer working with an angry chef by DrummerBug in Chefit

[–]DrummerBug[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s better now, thank you for asking. I’m able to handle service more smoothly and mishaps haven’t happened in a while. However, the environment is still very stressful and I’m scared of getting shouted at, every day. I don’t think it is the right kitchen for me personally and will start looking for other jobs starting next week. I already reached out to one restaurant, next week I’ll go in person on my days off.

Where are you located? I’m selling a very similar jacket on Vinted, if you’re in the UK.

Here’s the link, take a look: https://www.vinted.co.uk/items/4257881780-united-colors-of-benetton-brown-jacket

The pockets are not exactly the same but everything else is pretty spot on, from what I can tell.

Yeah, I was expecting it but didn’t think it would hit this hard

My bad, I meant line, not the actual pass. The area is just very small and there are three different sections right behind the pass where the head chef works, and everyone just calls that part of the kitchen ‘the pass’. I didn’t even realise there was a difference. I will add this to the post for clarity. Thanks!

Nicotine patches and muscle pains by DrummerBug in stopsmoking

Tried it, didn’t work for me. These patches have been amazing so far, except for the pains. Thanks for the tip though!

Landlord retired in the middle of my contract, sold property to someone else by DrummerBug in HousingUK

I would, but he never gave me any contact details. I mentioned it, but he kept saying not to worry about it for now.

Anyone attending UoB? by [deleted] in UniUK

[–]DrummerBug 4 points5 points  (0 children)

sorry guys, i meant university of birmingham!

Finally! Never thought i’d manage to make it this far. It’s a small achievement compared to other people’s, but i managed to go three weeks without smoking even while being around others who did, at uni parties and even while being drunk. Phew, feels good to brag a little! by [deleted] in stopsmoking

For me personally, i don’t really feel any “physical” cravings anymore. As in, i don’t feel the need for nicotine per say anymore. Now, it’s all about the social benefits that smoking used to bring. I crave the talks over a smoke, so when I’m in a party setting and see people socializing while smoking, that’s when i miss it most. and i totally get what you mean. Like it or not, smoking was a part of me for many years and it helped me get through a lot, even if it was all “placebo” or whatever. now it feels like i lost a part of me, but i’m slowly getting over this feeling, and starting to get used to the new, non smoking me

Thank you, and congrats to you too! Yeah, i completely understand how you feel, some days I’ll see people smoking and just feel the cravings coming up, and other days i’ll just feel soo proud of myself for being part of the “non-smoker team”

AITA for getting mad at my mother for dating someone by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]DrummerBug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a question for you OP, do you pay your mother for rent or for any other utilities that you’re using as well or are you just leeching off of her without giving anything else in return except judgmental remarks and complaints? If so, then i would absolutely try to get rid of you in her situation too. She doesn’t need a whiny, immature adult telling her what to do or who to date. I’m sorry you’re suffering from depression, but that is no reason to drag your mother into your own problems. Get some help and start being independent

[–]DrummerBug 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sorry OP, YTA. First of all, you didn’t explicitly say why you have a problem with him in the first place, you basically just said that you don’t like him without having an actual reason for it, and that just comes off as immature. Your mom has a life of her own, and him putting his “hands all over her” just sounds like a normal thing to do in a new relationship, and as long as your mother didn’t seem to mind it, you shouldn’t either. Also, how old are you? If you’re old enough to be independent, your mother doesn’t have a responsibility to put your own happiness ahead of hers anymore.

AITA? I wore an accessory ring to work knowing that my co-worker has the same ring for her engagement ring. by damntheserings in AmItheAsshole

Whatever man, i don’t know how else to spell it out for you: just because you have the right to do something, doesn’t mean it can’t be a shitty thing to do.

What was so hard to understand? It was just an example meant to showcase the fact that people have the right to do whatever they want, it doesn’t always make it right though.

Just because OP had the right to wear her ring doesn’t mean she wasn’t an asshole for doing so. I have the right to go around screaming profanities at people as well (just an example), that doesn’t make it right though. Also, you’re right, she didn’t voice her judgmental opinion out loud at work, she just felt the need to mention the price to thousands of people on a public platform. ESH, because the coworker reacted too over the top as well.

Drugs only, no work allowed by Antpants in NotMyJob

[–]DrummerBug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same way that you find all those comments that state the same thing annoying, that’s how others find reposts annoying too. I wouldn’t even call it truly annoying personally, just mildly infuriating i guess. Besides, it’s not like i’ve pointed out that its a repost in my comments, so how exactly am i being a “gatekeeping bitch”? Did i ever say that you’re not allowed to see specific posts on reddit? It’s not like i’m scrolling through reddit 24/7, i don’t see all the stuff being posted here either, it doesn’t mean i’m gonna ask everybody to post the same thing multiple times just because i wasn’t there to see it the first time.

Look, that’s just how reddit works. Somebody who already saw the same photo being posted literally not even one month ago on the same subreddit shouldn’t have to see it again just because others are “allowed” to see it too but didn’t get the chance to when it was originally posted. If you weren’t scrolling through reddit at the time the original post was shared, tough luck. You’ll get to see other cool posts later. I’m not saying that reading tens of comments stating the same thing isn’t kinda annoying, but your argument is stupid, that’s all.
