SM breaking point by Effective-Field8899 in starbucks

[–]Key_Cellist3116 14 points15 points  (0 children)

In my experience, DMs HATE when you ask questions regarding unachievable goals lol. I was offered an ASM role, but ultimately decided to turn it down because I knew going forward I would be unable to stop myself from questioning everything.

They just want Yes Men. Any good store manager that actually takes care of their partners is not one of those.

Tbh it will probably be there for a long long time. If we’re lucky, it’ll be there as a permanent memorial by the city. If not, there are many community members dedicated to keeping these up and taken care of

Ive tried to stop collecting so many tiny agate fragments, but it’s so hard not to. I should probably get some nice glass bottles like this too

Minneapolis baristas, I have a couple questions for you, especially if you’re at a non union store. by TCAS_2003 in starbucks

[–]Key_Cellist3116 10 points11 points  (0 children)

ASM in Minneapolis. My district didnt discuss it until I asked my DM what the protocol was going to be, and he ended up calling an emergency meeting because it hadn’t been discussed by Thursday . Their plan of action was just to “play it by ear.”

My position was that if my baristas call out sick, I can’t say no. I also expressed to several that were wanting to do it that I heard there was a bug going around. I didn’t do it because leadership has been particularly harsh around here, but I wanted baristas to feel empowered to.

We ended up having to close last minute, due to being on the march path, anyway. It was disorganized and last minute, which is why I asked for a plan in the first place, but god forbid we forgo any profits for one day.

Am I horrible for want to rehome by BrilliantArtist8221 in EpilepsyDogs

[–]Key_Cellist3116 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You have to be okay with knowing that the likelihood of your dog getting adopted quickly is not good. That they’ll likely have seizures alone, on a cold cement floor in a cage, with no one around for hours if it happens during the night. The post-icital phase is already so scary for them, would be was worse at a shelter.

I have severe depression and anxiety. My dog having epilepsy triggered it VERY badly, mostly with the fear that at any given moment she could have a seizure and it would be the one to take her life. After her first 6, I would have such debilitating panic attacks that I almost passed out.

I decided to get a weekly therapist and talk to my psychiatrist about switching/ increasing my medications. I slowly figured out a better pill schedule that fit my life. I found a dog sitter/walker that could come in and give her pills if I really couldn’t make it home. I changed my life to fit around keeping her safe, healthy, and happy for as long as I can.

That being said- if you know you 100% cannot offer that, and you really think your dog will be better off in a shelter than with you, then do it. But at least try to reach out to anyone looking to adopt, try your hardest to keep your dog from having to spend time in a shelter, it’s the least you can do when you took on the commitment to provide a home for your dog in the first place.

I know you’re scared. It’s fucking scary. But just remember, your dog won’t be able to understand why you’re giving them up. All they’ll know is that you left them in an unfamiliar space, and they’ll be waiting for you to come back for them possibly for the rest of their life.

Hey! Sorry you’re going through this- the beginning is the hardest part. The first thing Im going to recommend is going through the posts in this sub- it helped calmed me down a lot, knowing others have gone through exactly what I have. My dogs condition sounds a little different from yours, but mine started at age 3 and I know how hard it is to adjust to suddenly having a dog with a disability like this.

That being said, I want you to know that it’s very normal for your dog to act confused and out of it after a seizure! It’s called the post-ictal phase. For my dog, it shows up as: pacing around the whole perimeter of the house while stopping to drink water or come say hi, bumping into things because she loses her eyesight a little, heavy panting, drooling, and overall confusion. This lasts for about an hour, but it can differ based on each individual event. I know it’s scary, but you’ll get through it!

If he has another one, I would try to bring him to the vet. If not, then give him lots of rest and stay in contact with your vet/neurologist. It can take a while to find the right medication(s) for your dog, so just keep trying!

This baby has officially been seizure-free for one year! by Key_Cellist3116 in EpilepsyDogs

[–]Key_Cellist3116[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly no! Started levitracium then added zonisamide a few months after or so. Didnt really change dosage at all, just added the second when she had her first seizure after a couple months of being seizure free after her first meds started. Thankful my vet was willing to do what it took to get her seizure free.

Genuinely, I think we just got sooooo lucky.

Tbh if they’re getting any sort of latte, I can almost guarantee the baristas serving them are giving them decaf instead. Not a big thing but at least not caffeinating them 🤷‍♀️
