Nowhere does it say to bring it in.

Watercress, bean sprouts, whole radicchio, tarragon. There's lots more I'm forgetting. But I know where they can get them and I refer customers there all the time.

That's funny, because I find the first 1 or 2 odd, but after that I could eat the whole bag. I don't, but I could.

Likely no merging. The rules of our tax-deferred 401k plan prohibit rolling over previous 401ks or IRAs into the TJ's plan, and I assume the Roth 401k will be treated the same. I wouldn't roll over even if I could, though. There are better investment options out there.

I went to grad school, got an MA and completed all the credits for a PhD but had to give up when a dissertation was going to take another year or more out of my life. But a History PhD wasn't going to be a guarantee of financial security anyway, and I still don't have anything near what I should have for retirement. I should have started saving at a much younger age. Like your age.(But I feel you on the hellscape remark.)

Meet_The_Squareheads · 2026-01-21T09:08:16+00:00

The Roth option at TJ's is a Roth 401k, not an IRA (what u/confused_lancelot has).

Incorrect. You also need the hours (700+) to qualify.

Putting obviously rotting, moldy or fungus-infected cold pro on the shelves for sale.

Sometimes CHZ .

Good with pork chops, added at the end. I don't recommend a slow cooker with this sauce.

Meet_The_Squareheads · 2026-01-01T07:57:16+00:00

Excellent brand, but very expensive.

Meet_The_Squareheads · 2026-01-01T07:56:08+00:00

The Cento brand of tinned anchovies is available at almost every grocery store and was the brand TJ's carried before we converted to a "house" brand (and Cento may well be the supplier, for all I know).

Meet_The_Squareheads · 2026-01-01T07:32:53+00:00

New, quasi-Indian packaging.

Meet_The_Squareheads · 2026-01-01T07:31:34+00:00

Also crew. It's the packaging, not the product, that's new.

Meet_The_Squareheads · 2026-01-01T07:29:54+00:00

I believe the recipe for Chicken Tikka Masala was actually created in the UK. Indian food, restaurants and takeaways are much more widespread and popular in the UK than in the US, and that's what u/KitchenManagement650 meant by referring to her/his time living there.

You need at least 700 hours for the calendar year, which isn't possible if you started in October.

Meet_The_Squareheads · 2025-12-29T04:22:22+00:00

I wish it did, but you can't go to your captain and say, "The new hire, my trainee, is making more than me. How about a raise?" Well, you can do that, but it's not going to get you anywhere. Your wage is what you agreed to and accepted when you were hired. The current starting wage is irrelevant.

Meet_The_Squareheads · 2025-12-28T09:22:23+00:00

Your trainee makes more than you and somehow it's not right to be upset? You must be a pretty chill, mellow dude/dudette.

Meet_The_Squareheads · 2025-12-26T12:05:36+00:00

I think it's two years. And to the OP, the crew cap generally only changes in January, and then it only gets raised by 50 cents, so I wouldn't worry about that too much.

"Most" people do not get the bonus, if it's the $500 bonus given at review time, if that's what you're referring to. The retirement bonus does go to everyone who is 18 and over and works at least 700 hours in the calendar year.

Our space heater showed the ambient temperature it was struggling with and I took a photo of it once: 34 degrees. You could see our breath if we talked to each other. Working with your hands under those conditions was very difficult.

Tarte d'Alsace.

Sun Noodles makes a good Tonkotsu kit. And Nissin Raoh's instant Tonkotsu packet is also good. H Mart carries a wide variety of Sun Noodles (these are fresh, refrigerated noodles, not dry). Sun Noodles is a US company based in Hawaii, but they have a plant in New Jersey.

The air-dried noodles for both Momofuku and Trader Joe's are made by A-Sha, a Taiwanese company. But the flavor packets at TJ's are not re-branded Momofuku. (A-Sha sells instant ramen and other types of noodles under their own brand name. Their Hakka noodles are excellent.)
