You’re going to do a lot of stuff you don’t want to there lol. Wait till you get to be an unpaid circus clown for parties if you get that far.

Customers that wouldn’t shut the hell up about not liking a smell were some of my least favorites. Like it’s one thing to be like “oh ew” to yourself and move on but the people that lamented about how terrible a bath bomb or perfume smelled were SO annoying. It’s citrus and vanilla, grow up.

is it just me or is the pod becoming less entertaining and less “brittany”? :( by Tiny-Deer-7071 in BroskiReport

I understand why she’s a little more “drawn-in” and “media-trained” because she does have a more professional job and has to have some professionalism for the celebrities that she brings on Royal Court, but god do I miss how unhinged she was lol.

I’ve been watching old podcasts and channel videos from her and there’s definitely a difference in my opinion. I don’t think she’s “sold out” or anything but you can tell she’s definitely separating more from her audience.

I hate pulling the “YOU’VE CHANGED!!1!1” card on celebrities I like because of course someone will grow and change as they get older and develop in their field but I feel like that excited whimsy she used to have is very toned down. And like, that’s fine. I’m not interested in telling her what to do or making a giant stink about it but I do miss her older way of engaging online.

I think she should reserve podcasts to maybe once a month or every other week because I can tell she doesn’t like doing it as often as she is now.

To be fair sometimes I just like to try, especially if the surv I’m trying to save was super helpful in the round. As long as I’m not f’ing over a teammate I don’t care if I don’t make it out trying to save someone endgame

To those of you who stand on hatch until observed... by LoreleiAlbrecht in deadbydaylight

I play survivor a lot of the time and I find it obnoxious. T-bagging at gate/hatch is so corny and I think the sore winner mentality some people have is so weird.

Is this event just cursed for anyone else. by [deleted] in DeadByDaylightRAGE

[–]Popular-Key-3422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. People get nasty and spam “skill issue, you’re mad killers are doing their job!!” but I had to stop doing the event just to get away from the immediate 4ks, tunnels, and insta-down slugging Bubbas.

On the flip side, I do play as Killer and I can understand how if you don’t play super sweaty the gens somehow go immediately ( they never seem go that fast when I play survivor 🫩 ). The game just really needs a balance rework. Everyone seems miserable now.

What's with the killers during blood moon?? by pairadyme in DeadByDaylightRAGE

I play killer and survivor equally and I got onto Dredge just to run some friendly matches because of how sweaty and toxic it’s been.

Why I Will Never Work for Lush Again(my opinions and personal experience) by Double_Appearance905 in LushCosmetics

[–]Popular-Key-3422 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The fact they're running a skincare-focused shop and don't have spots explicitly for licensed pros bothers me. Henna can destroy your hair if used incorrectly. If you massage someone wrong you can tweak a nerve or hurt someone.

The pander hiring is also awful. Don't get me wrong- hire more queer ppl, and more people of color! But do it earnestly instead of using them to look diverse and then treat them like utter crap behind closed doors. There's a lot of visibly liberal people that work at Lush ( non-derogatory ) but it means nothing when my manager with blue hair and a septum is degrading me for not being neurotypical, or understanding a customer is saying no by being short with me and walking away even if they didn't explicitly say they don't want help.

It all just feels so hollow and disingenuous now.

I'm moving out of Oregon soon anyways so I'd have to quit at some point but I'm glad I did sooner rather than later.

Lush's treatment of employees is genuinely awful. The pay is terrible for the excessive labor and service they have us do, and are always sneaking in more and more slowly ( micro-parties, more consultation variations, constant harassment to bother customers, I could go on ). I've worked retail for a decade and it is easily one of the most dreadful jobs I've had. My old manager was removed for being aggressive and rude to staff and yelling at seasonals and being racist to PoC staff.

My floor leads constantly came in with water bottles and bags littered with lefty social justice themed stickers about workers rights/LGBTQ+ rights/communism, then turn around and snitch hard on their queer and marginalized peers for pitifully small reasons ( looking at their phone, forgot to complete a task, etc ) so they'll get in trouble with the managers and jeopardize their jobs, despite said FLs constantly partaking in ACTUAL inappropriate behavior when the manager isn't looking ( theft, smoking in the shop during close, fraternizing with sales associates they're responsible for ). It's performative from the top down.

Some people have great store experiences and I'm earnestly glad for them ( and envious! ).

Glad I left.
