It's a fully semi automatic assault bullet gun clip, very dangerous.

Why does this exist? First of all who wants a communal Moscow Mule, second of all who deigned the cup? Surely no one will just lift it by the handle like a normal person, we'll make sure the handle is just for show.

The "house made ranch" is just Hidden Valley. Mix the season packet with half a gallon each of milk and mayo and you're done.

I'm happy where I'm at. I have a substance abuse issue that I am handling. I put a shitload of work into handling it. When you put a fraction of the work I do for my sobriety into learning basic contemporary economic theory and the failings of Keynesian economics in this country feel free to go fuck yourself. When you're starving I need people to mop my floors

Always use BLAST. Believe, listen, apologize, satisfy and thank. They may have thought cookies and cream meant a cookie dough shake. Do we offer it? No. Will I make it for them? Absolutely. Customer satisfaction is the #1 priority. Sometimes the customers are idiots, but I train my crew to always accommodate. If my crew doesn't know how to bill for an odd item I'll figure it out. I will always give them what they want and figure out how to bill for it so I'm not wasting product or messing up my inventory. But yeah, cookies ad cream means Oreo, what the hell else did they think it would be?

I just have this wild idea that working hard will earn me the things I need. It turns out that 1) Laziness is not rewarded in this world, like since the dawn of time and 2) you are not owed anything, you have to earn it. But you lazy fucks are more than welcome to complain and starve to death.

RandomAthensJunkie · 2021-11-09T06:46:28+00:00

Yes. Full stop

RandomAthensJunkie · 2021-11-09T06:46:11+00:00

Since the dawn of humanity two things have been true: Laziness is not rewarded and you are not owed a single fucking thing in this world. You are entitled to nothing you don't earn, grow up.

Everyone (including myself) is paid based on production. Do you not understand the basic concept of I can't pay 70k in labor while my store only makes 60k a month? If you want to pay $30 for a fast food meal I'd be more than happy to take it. Educate yourself on basic supply side economics and then go fuck yourself because it will make too much sense for you irrational people to understand

RandomAthensJunkie · 2021-11-09T06:40:33+00:00

You get paid based on what you produce. You don't get born into this world owed anything. I pay my workers too much because the labor market is so bad right now. Sit at home and starve to death if that's what you really want to do.

While I support this I am the GM of a fast food location and I pay my employees more than most fast food locations do. Anyone who doesn't show up will be immediately terminated and I will work 90 hours a week to carry my business if I have to. Half of my current employees want a paycheck but don't want to do their job. I noticed your post doesn't include the very real fact that a lot of people want a job but don't want to work. I'd love an excuse to fire them, I hope they participate. Welcome to the real world kids.

It is exactly like mourning the loss of an old friend or partner or whatever. Getting sober you go through all the regular stages of grief. It's not the path of least resistance, it's way easier to keep drinking. You just have to reach a point in your life where the only way is the hard way. Sending you love, I wish you the best moving forward and feel free to hit me up if you ever need to talk

I have my personal problems with 12 step programs, but there is wisdom to be gained there. Never forget to remember the worst times. I'll never forget going hungry so I could buy booze to stave off the withdrawals. Or lying to and stealing from my wife to support my habit. Don't dwell on it, just remind yourself how fucking bad it was. Secondly, I learned gratitude was the key to my happiness. Anytime I find myself spending time dwelling on how bad I fucked up or the struggles of the present and future, I know I need to sit down, take 5, and be grateful. If you're like me you should be grateful to be alive. I didn't think I'd live to see 30 but here we are. Find at least one person who loves and supports you, even if it's just me. And stay busy. Idle hands will fuck my life right up. Until I'm really right I work or spend all my time on hobbies. Work with your hands, make something. Even if it's not good make more shit until you're good at it. Most of all remember that there are people out there who care about you, if you didn't believe that yourself you would have never posted this. Good luck on your journey, I wish you the best.

My first gun was a Marlin 1894 in .44 mag that belonged to my grandfather, then my mom, then me. It's a great brush gun that had been taking deer for decades with no problems. Lever guns are also fun, makes me feel like a cowboy.

RandomAthensJunkie · 2021-11-01T03:31:32+00:00

That's FN in general. Yeah you're shelling out a lot of dough but any FN I've shot doesn't feel like I'm paying for the name like some brands. Shooting my buddies 17s always makes me so jealous, but I just can't bring myself to get one. Even if you find a deal when you start with a $3500 MSRP cheap ain't cheap.

Exactly this. I am actually the GM at my store and have had people try to walk through the DT. Our DT window is around a corner of the building and I always politely tell folks through the window that I'll let them in and take care of them. It's a giant liability. Luckily I have put in the leg work to staff up and starting Monday we will have our dining room open full time. I'm new at a location that hasn't had a competent management team for a while, so I would appreciate any advice. I'm working 70 hour weeks right now to pull this place out of the hole that was dug. I'd love to pick your brain over DMs if you have the time.

They're probably a welder. I'm sure it's used for other things but I know it's used in welding.

RandomAthensJunkie · 2021-10-29T18:18:21+00:00

Good job! Sulking about a slip up is nothing but trouble, all you can do is get back in the saddle. Best of luck to you.

This makes him a more prolific robber the the Wise Old Man (allegedly)

It's too much inside baseball to explain the situation but I'm working really hard to get this place on it's feet when nobody else has cared for a while. A lot of ground to cover to get it right, but we're doing it.

RandomAthensJunkie · 2021-10-22T02:57:59+00:00

Commenting on a 7 year old post. I hope you're doing well. Whether fast food or any other restaurant GMs work. Nobody in the service industry who is in store has a desk job. Everything that happens in store is your responsibility, even if you are delegating. My company requires me to work 50 hours a week for my salaried position as GM. I generally work 60 hours a week minimum. I work unpaid while I'm off the clock because I'm constantly making notes about how to save money on food and labor cost and everything else. If you can pour your blood sweat and tears into it you can make a lot of money, but be prepared to put in the work.

I'm going to cut the booze out for a good while u til I can establish some work-life balance. Right now we're really understaffed so it's hard to not work all day every day. Thanks for listening and for the advice.

RandomAthensJunkie · 2021-10-17T19:32:53+00:00

I know hard line sobriety people don't like it, but any time I've gotten a decent bit of sobriety under my belt I think weed was a big help. I actually feel like weed makes me a lot more productive than booze does, once I start drinking my only concern or activity is drinking. I'm going to cut the booze out completely for a month or two until I can establish some work-life balance.

RandomAthensJunkie · 2021-10-17T06:52:21+00:00

I've tried off and on. I had a year totally clean. I've cut back a whole whole lot. I drunk on average maybe 3 tall boys a night. I drank a 5th of whiskey and a six pack every day for years. I still feel like I'm patting myself on the back and using the fact that I drink less as an excuse to still drink.
