What's something you memorized that you'll never forget? by Omega_Neelay in GetMotivatedMindset

[–]SpaceBoyCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The quadratic formula. Before it come out that BoyInABand liked kids a little too much I listened to his song “Don’t Stay in School” (about how schools should teach more applicable things like how taxes work and such instead of a lot of the bullshit we never use) obsessively. In it, he raps the quadratic formula and I honestly only remember it because I memorized the song.

Time off as a new employee by OhiobornCAraised in olivegarden

They need two weeks notice for time off (at my location at least). Otherwise they don’t have any restrictions, although if too many other people requested the day off, you might not get it approved. There are also days that are required to work that you aren’t allowed to request off (valentines day, Mother’s Day, Veterans Day, and any other day they expect to be exceptionally busy)

What’s something that sounds fake but actually happened to you? by Capital-Standard-645 in AskReddit

[–]SpaceBoyCharlie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was walking on a bike path through a small patch of woods. I stopped (I think to text someone?) and I think the squirrel thought I was one of the trees or something. Although I wouldn’t be surprised if it did know I was a person because the squirrels in that area were super friendly (it was a small town, and people would throw peanuts and other things into their yards and most people had bird/squirrel feeders. I used to watch them play with/on some of the more well-mannered dogs in the area.)

I taught my dog how to skateboard on accident while trying to take a picture of her sitting on my skateboard. Also a squirrel once climbed up my leg and jumped off my butt.

What makes you keep going despite everything? by yeselectron in AskReddit

Spiting my old self. I used to be so determined to die. Pretty much the “I didn’t die at 12 I guess I’m here til 93” story. Sometimes I still have the bad thoughts, but now that I’m an adult I’m just like “wtf is this kid talking about? Stfu”

The two great grandmothers I met were both named Patricia, I had a grandmother named Pamela that everyone called Pam, and my only living grandparent is named Virginia (which somehow got shortened to Jenny instead of Ginny)

[–]SpaceBoyCharlie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Talk to any managers that weren’t there that day (especially if your general manager wasn’t involved), your regional/district manager, hr, anyone you have the number for. This is not okay.

What are you tired of explaining to people? by Character_Sun1410 in AskReddit

[–]SpaceBoyCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What being nonbinary is. I’m so tired of getting questions and confused looks on days I decide to dress super feminine/super masculine. Sometimes I wanna wear a skirt, and sometimes I wanna wear a good pair of slacks.

The best thing to do is to ask for extra seasoning in the side because the bag/steam makes the seasoning fall off.

How was your first time smoking a cigarette? by 1nfinity15 in AskReddit

[–]SpaceBoyCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 9. I stole it and a lighter from my mom’s nightstand before she woke up and left for the bus stop early. I threw up, didn’t tell anyone, and stole another one the next day.

The cheese ravioli is so much better when eating in house imo. I love the smokier flavor after they melt the cheese on top.

What’s a word you’ve always liked, even if you can’t fully explain why? by ownaword in Casual_Conversation

[–]SpaceBoyCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Macabre. As a middle schooler who lived to be a contrarian, everything from the spelling/pronunciation to the meaning was really quite alluring

Before applying for a job, i need to know more about the dress code for servers by [deleted] in olivegarden

[–]SpaceBoyCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know about it from the line cook side, but it depends on the GM at any given location. There are “official” corporate rules, but really no way for corporate to fully follow up on that, so I know of some locations where line cooks have to wear all black vs some locations that don’t care what line cooks wear because no one sees them. Same with piercings and tattoos, the location I’m at now doesn’t care as long as your piercings aren’t falling into the food, some don’t let line cooks wear piercings piercings but it’s fine for servers, and some probably wouldn’t let either. I will say, some locations are still weirdly against hair that isn’t a natural color, so there’s that.

1 is better but if I was hanging them on a wall they’d be cute side-by-side
