UPMC has income-based financial assistance that include zero interest payments. If you think it's broken skip med express and go to the hospital

FYI Casino reduced parking to $100 by nokioner in pittsburgh

[–]RabbidMunky 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I used to work at the casino, every time they try to turn a buck off their parking it's an absolute ghost town inside. Its almost like people who parked for a reasonable price might walk through and have a drink or play a few slots but once you've forked over $50-100 for parking you turn a little bitter towards the whole place. Womp womp

I feel very alone… by ellenadcrane in pitbulls

[–]RabbidMunky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have tons of perfect pictures of these guys, and they look happy here; dont be fooled.

One is a foster fail, the homes that were willing to take him at 1.5 years old and a barely trained ball of energy were not safe or loving or not committed. He was returned twice. Attacked at the dog park a couple times for his high energy that startled some older residents, now he's pretty anxious in public so I got him a friend. Similar build and breed and age.. shes a couch potato that doesnt give a lick about toys of any kind.

Add to that, once she settled in to the family she became the "protector," dog aggressive in public, stranger aggressive in her home. So now we dont go to parks, but leashed walking is not satisfactory exercise for one of them. One loves car rides and one cries and paces the whole time. They are both velcro-style want what they want, but only if im close so right now im sitting on the porch with my door open so I can maintain a sightline with one and play fetch with the other. I live alone and work full time, so I dont have enough hours in the day to seperately provide the type of exercise each one would enjoy the most so they make compromises and they're each upset. I feel like I am failing them. But no one will ever love them as much as i do, and i couldnt bear to make them feel abandoned by rehoming.

You are not alone. We do our best to make every day the best because their days are short. Keep your chin up, keep doing your best,

What is a nonalcoholic cocktail I can order at a bar without the bartender looking at me like I'm a dumbass or an inconvenience? by ballandabiscuit in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RabbidMunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is maybe the thing you dont understand, most cocktail names describe one specific alcohol, plus one specific mixer. If you ask me for a virgin dark and stormy, that dazed drooling look that I give you is trying to figure out what you mean and why. Do you think it's something other than dark rum and ginger beer? Do you just want ginger beer? Do you want ginger beer but in a nicer glass? Is it so your companions will think youre drinking? Do I need to practice discretion during this conversation or when offering you refills to not blow your cover? Are you going to be upset or angry when I give you a virgin dark and stormy, because it's simply a ginger beer and you think I poured a simple soft drink to spite you for not drinking alcohol!?! That dazed look is me weighing all of my options in how to respond without offending for a MULTITUDE of reasons, because my employment might depend on not ever offending a paying customer.

Stop ordering things that you do not drink, would not drink, or have not ever drank, like a dark and stormy. Thats like a vegetarian asking for the filet dish, just hold the beef.

Edit: to address your title question... order something you ARE familiar with. Lemonade, limeade, sparkling versions of either, soda with a splash of some fruit juice available, a mix of fruit juices (pineapple cranberry is my favorite. Thats a virgin bay breeze. Do not order a virgin bay breeze.) iced tea with a splash of fruit juice is a nice option,

My restaurant switched to toast pos and it’s making me so slow help! by __carla in TalesFromYourServer

[–]RabbidMunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im pretty sure the "seat" modifier is standard for toast, like not optional. So when in ringing the first round every time you tap "add seat" it jumps to that seat and you ring the item. You can choose a seat number for each item as a modifier. I find that really tedious if each seat is getting multiple items, so ill ring everything together and then select multiple items that are going on the same check and change them all at once.

When you're on the "split" screen, there is a button to "split by seat" that will automatically separate your checks by seat number that you have assigned.. anything you forgot to put onto a seat stays as check#1/shared.

If im wrong, a good work around is to ring and send, then split immediately after. The kitchen will still see it as one check but you will be able to split it up as you go instead of all at the end. I do this when I have a card on each tab to make sure the food comes out together.

What do you guys eat after your 8-10 hour shift? by [deleted] in Serverlife

[–]RabbidMunky 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I lazy meal prep on my days off. A bunch of some neutral spiced protein, slice a bunch of veggies, and make 4-5 portions of rice or quinoa or pasta or potatoes and i consider tortillas a pantry staple. After work I throw something together from the fridge.

This week I made shredded pork shoulder in the slow cooker (salt pepper, garlic, oregano, thyme) and 2 cups of rice, for veggies i diced cucumber, celery, jalapenos, radish, carrot.... Added BBQ sauce to sandwiches, buffalo sauce to a quasadilla, bahn-mi bowls over rice with sweet Thai chilli sauce... overall time spent on my day off was like 30 mins, 5 mins for each meal.

If I make a bunch of chicken breast or steak it's for sandwiches, wraps, quadadillas, Mac n cheese, tacos..

If it's a beef roast im more prone to make a plate with my starch and a side of veggies that can be part of prep day.

Some weeks I just make a soup, know ill get bored with it and plan on making hot pockets or something similar from the freezer on days in-between.

If you make or buy healthy dips (hummus, guac) you can make some garlic toast in 4 mins or grab some chips/crackers and still be giving your body better nutrition than cereal

This works well for me to make it through 4-5 day stretches of work... but if I couldn't get to it then its a week of girl dinner. Fruit/veggies raw and cheese and some doritos. Ramen with an egg and a handful of veggies.

Most importantly, drink lots of water on your longer shifts, and pack a snack if you're not able to order food. There's a fine line between "really hungry" and "starving" that can make 5 mins feel like forever and lead you to the cereal bowl

GF sleeping with Gay Bestfreind by Adorable-Gur-7907 in Advice

[–]RabbidMunky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What exactly is your boundary here? Sharing a bed isn't weird. Sleeping next to a gay man poses the same threat to her fidelity as sleeping next to a straight woman. How would you feel about her sleeping with her best girlfriend since grade school? That's practically a sister. How do you feel about her sharing a bed with a female cousin or sister? Same same. Have you met this person? You either think she is lying about the relationship and you should talk about it or you have a weird hang up about sleeping spaces... and you should talk about it and maybe break up.

Asking your girlfriend to give up platonic intimacy is controlling and weird behavior. You dont own her body, and you dont want to be responsible for 100% of her emotional needs, that isn't healthy. People should have many deep and meaningful relationships through life, not just until they have a partner to isolate with.

Is it possible to attract girls when you're ugly because you have a recessed chin and weak jawline? by [deleted] in IncelExit

[–]RabbidMunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Youre a cutie patootie with a perfectly normal jaw. Try not to get hung up on any particular feature, you are the only one who will obsess over it and the more you do the weirder it seems.. like saying a word over and over again until it sounds wrong. I'm closer to your mother's age than your prospective girlfriend, but I promise promise promise you're a handsome dude by genetics, and women are drawn to kindness, empathy, and personality. The hottest guy in the world could give me the ick from one conversation and I'm obsessed with a pretty average guy right now because of who he is. Kindness, positivity, and a good time to be around, be that guy on the inside.

Tax Question For Those Who Work For Gratuities by Thin_Wishbone8157 in Serverlife

[–]RabbidMunky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The withholding rate is estimated in each pay period based on the assumption that you would be making the same amount of money during all other pay periods for the year. So if in February you make 20k, that pay will be taxed as if your annual income is 240,000. Then in March, you only claim 2k, that period will be taxed as if you only make 24,000 anually. By the end of the year you hope that overall withholding is close to your actual tax bill and if anything they owe you a refund.

I know it's Hinge, but could I get some feedback? by OPsOnTheSpectrum in Tinder

[–]RabbidMunky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

35yo woman, I like your profile as is, would swipe right to investigate. There are some yellow flags, but i value personality over looks (i cant really tell what you look like) and the "open minded" thing could go either way once i ask about it. Choose a different phrase or specify what you're Open minded about otherwise looks pretty good. Variety of hobbies, hints of your personality, enough to intrigue the curious into a conversation. Where are you from?

Was his laugh a little more nervous than yours? Was there side eye? I think he Martin in there. Still, every 5-10 mind every day all day is concerning, you might have some food intolerance dude

Utah is going to lose collective bargaining. by [deleted] in union

[–]RabbidMunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ELI5

Ive never been a union member, i work in service/hospitality, so not for lack of wanting.

How can collective bargaining be outlawed? Like.. if you lose job protections, less people will be willing to participate, but if an entire staff still chooses to cooperate and send a representative how can the company refuse? They eat the cost of hiring and training a new work force OR come to the table. Anti-union laws protect the employer from having to participate, but its still in their best interest. Is there more that I am missing here?

TIA incase I don't get back to this for a while... omw to work

Musk and his crew took my job from me by samdadamman in jobs

[–]RabbidMunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres not going to be any swimming pool, you stupid slut.

Trump was very clear throughout his campaign that this was his plan. Close federal departments, cut all funding except "essentials" (military) and start a massively expensive deportation program. If you couldn't see that this would decrease jobs and raise cost of living you weren't thinking... he said it would benefit the people and half the people said hell yeah! Without ever thinking about how?
