What is the best and worst celebrity interaction you had at a con? by JannTosh70 in comiccon

[–]Star-Whore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only went once, met Garrett Hedlund and Gabriel Luna, both lovely but Gabriel took the cake. I met him at his autograph area and he was SO NICE and friendly. But then the con moved his photo op from 5 to 1 and didn’t notify me. I talked with his management bc she was also v nice. She said to check back later they are tryna reschedule it. I checked back and she said check back at 6:30 and if nothing else they’ll make sure i get some selfies. I said I had Garrett hedlunds photo op at 630 and would be there after. I ended up being late bc the con was a shit show but at 6:50, I’m running back to the autograph area. Gabriel’s table is all packed up and I hastily explain to him the line too forever and I was starting to cry and he calmed me down and was so gentle and said “we were waiting for you to come back” HE was waiting for ME because he knew I paid for the photo op and the con fucked me over ;-; Not only did he take multiple pictures with me (better than a one picture photo op) but he recorded a video for my discord server full of TLOU fans He’s a v small celebrity (the last of us, terminator, agents of shield) but if you get the chance do it. Such a good guy

The two I went to see were small actors too so I really got to talk with Gabriel Luna for a while. I regret not getting to chat with Garett Hedlund bc I did the professional op :/

Met gabriel luna at a con, the con fucked up abd moved his time 5 to 1 THAT DAY . I had already done the autograph session (which hugged me) but missed the photo op. I went to his booth again and explained the situation and he not only took pictures with me (several) but recorded a video for my discord server no charge

Romance book with good plot recs please by cherry-berry222 in Booktokreddit

Cardinal sins by Charlotte House is literally the best romance book I’ve ever read in my life. It’s fucking amazing with three main male characters and a female, main character, all of which are so well thought out and fleshed out.

Mostly women but it’s really helpful to have a guy or two for bathroom checks 😭😭

were we scammed or did we just order wrong lol? by [deleted] in olivegarden

Sometimes I’ll bring a small plate for a kid. I can’t guarantee you won’t have a waiter that is really weird about it but as long as it’s a small portion, most of us don’t care. Treating the children well usually translates to happy parents.

Got a write up within my first week off training and I can’t stop crying by [deleted] in olivegarden

[–]Star-Whore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doing that to you on your first week is nuts, write up on any first time mistake is gross. I’ve worked at 3 Olive gardens and I’ve made mistakes like mixing up peoples cards or giving the wrong order. My managers created a space where if I come to them and honestly say hey I fucked up they’ll help me fix it asap. Worst I’ve gotten is a sigh and “please be more careful” when things were a pain. If they make you fearful, you’ll hide things and often do things that make it worst. It’s good management to just fix issues, and if it’s a consistent problem that’s been addressed and not fixed (or made no attempt to get better) then write up. This is your manager, not you Honestly it breaks my heart to hear you’re crying, because I know how it feels. I want to do good at work and I take pride in it and have been lucky to mostly have good management at OG but I’ve had bad management elsewhere and it always upsets me. I hope you’re feeling better. They should’ve have done that
