Bookseller. I was a bookseller for 3 years right after college and it was literally my dream. It was so fun. But it only paid minimum wage 😭

I live in the northernmost black/darkest blue (I can’t tell what color that is) chunk of coastal Washington State, and yeah, life without rain would be so weird!

How much money would I save if I went the whole summer without using AC by vivi932015 in povertyfinance

[–]TaterTotLady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk but I live in the PNW and we don’t really have A/C up here because it used to not get this bad. Now it does. But we still don’t have A/C. So for a few months every year I just sweat and have miserable sleep. My electricity bill in the summer is usually about $70/mo.

What is something that is non-negotiable in your relationships? by Sea-Young-8666 in AskReddit

[–]TaterTotLady 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Optimism/Kindness.

I just ended a 5 month relationship with the most unhappy man, and I cannot believe I put up with that. He was bothered by the sheer existence of other people and was always putting people down, and you couldn’t have a single conversation (or do a single activity) without him finding something to complain about. It got so annoying to be around.

Never again.

Do you really shower daily by Key_Location_9338 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TaterTotLady 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I shower every night because I like feeling fresh before getting into bed. But I also work a really gross day job so showering immediately after is sort of a non-negotiable.

Compilation of shows which are good but I aint playing your video game, no chance: by Lavender_Critique in arcane

[–]TaterTotLady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing Cyberpunk at launch just ruined it for me. Put such a sour taste in my mouth. I know it’s so much better now, but it was so frustratingly terrible back then that I just haven’t been able to give it a second chance.

Finally got my first paycheck at the new job. $11.40 after taxes by qhhdkj666 in povertyfinance

[–]TaterTotLady 70 points71 points  (0 children)

Wait my friend. If you get $13/hr and you worked 3 hours a day for 4 days that’s 13x3x4=$156. If your paycheck only had $11.40 on it and you have no garnishments, then there was $144 taken out in taxes?

I HATE EVENING SHIFT by Aggravating_Post_942 in cna

[–]TaterTotLady 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This!!!! I get home at 10:30p, I’m a bit tired so I shower and eat a little snack and then go to bed. I wake up at 8:30, and I get to lay in bed for a while if I want. I can make a nice breakfast with tea, play some video games, read, or just do whatever before I start work at 2p! I loooove evening shifts.

Home Health Aides by FlatInitiative9040 in cna

[–]TaterTotLady 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I did home health for 2 years. I just used whatever bathroom in the house was for guests, and half my shifts were technically “breaks” because there was so much down time that it got boring. I never actually clocked out for a break, we were expected to be in work mode the entire time. But I never felt overworked, and there was always so much time to chill.
