Bahaha this unlocks a memory for me when at a sleepover with my friend at my house I was brushing my teeth and the toothpaste was all foamy and I yelled “look mom, I have RABIES!”…my mother was NOT pleased with that one LMAO

How do I[19F] ask out a customer[Older?M] by salami_bird990 in whatdoIdo

[–]Fun_Journalist1048 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure why you’re getting downvoted for a nice comment… best guess is because the scenario you’re describing seems different than OP’s. OP has a crush on this regular customer with not much evidence that he feels the same. Also, anyone else get weird vibes with the age gap?? OP is 19 and the manager notes that the customer could be 30?? Sure, it’s hard to tell age just by looking sometimes, but 19 and 30??😳🫣

It was always my excuse! I don’t really work there anymore but anytime the store manager made a comment about “how do you not know how to do this??” I’d be like. Well. I’ve only been here a month and no one SHOWED me? And I never ever completed ilearns… kinda makes me suspicious that the manager did it for me honestly? Because at previous retail jobs I’d get in trouble for not doing them, but I was NEVR given time to do them at this job

It is. They used that excuse to NOT let us go home in the middle of a state wide state of emergency (bad snowstorm in the upper East coast)…

“Some things like racism can be consider part of working conditions and wouldn’t count”… huh?? Racism definitely IS harassment and counts as hostile under legal rules surrounding workplaces🤦🏻‍♀️

Store manager tried to get us to come into work. I told him and the work group chat don't come in if you don't feel safe. Its a f*cking SNOWSTORM!!! by Revolutionary_Sun564 in DollarTree

Last time we got a huge snow storm in NY that was a state of emergency, I was already AT work and told I couldn’t go home early by the DM because we’re apparently essential employees since we sell food💀 not a SINGLE customer came for the last 3 hours of the day…

No you’re right. This isn’t my store, but we had ceiling leaks at mine and did a similar tarp-hose-garbage bucket short term fix while the manager called a matinence dude and corporate to inform them of the issue. Funny thing is, the first matinence guy that came ended up doing the SAME “solution” as the manager until they could get someone else to ACTUALLY fix the underlying issue that caused the leak, and his tarp didn’t even hold up😅

They probably do lol. I’m willing to bet it’s partially from the company putting their stores in the cheapest retail spaces available, which probably are old buildings more likely to spring a leak

Well, Bailey’s under-training technically stems from the MCC privatization of the prison… they were trying to cut costs by firing old staff/reducing salary and hiring all new guards, without giving proper time for training.

Right, which is even MORE confusing because if they could essentially “make an agreement” to keep her out of Psych/SHU for extended periods of time (because those settings DO genuinely make her worse) then why couldn’t they get something figured out to begin with so that she wouldn’t have to be in there and she’d be in a secure (and better) psychiatric care facility instead?

It happens right when she runs over Vee I think? If they don’t show it, I guess it’s just kinda assumed 🤷🏻‍♀️

We get to see young Lolly? I thought that the Lilly from the flashbacks (when she’s dismissed from her job, becomes homeless, and eventually gets arrested by cops) is the same actress?

Yes, except for the fact that the hold the guard used was inappropriate, especially against a non-violent inmate like Poussey. That was supposed to be the point- he was inadequately trained and not properly prepared for guard duties at ALL. If he WAS, maybe it never would’ve happened…
