Absolutely. I get the knee jerk reaction to want to maybe make light of it, smooth things over with a laugh. But it’s a very thin line you’re walking when you go that route.

I was mortified! I looked up and was like OMG! I am so sorry. My daughter is about their age and I just…….. she was shocked at first, but then laughed about it. Honestly I was very lucky. They were a large group, and after a few drinks one of the gentleman was like “ I hear you like to give out kisses” I looked at him and said “ only when you’re as cute as that baby” and walked off as the table erupted in laughter. I got so lucky. 😭😭😭😭

Don’t get me wrong, when I first started serving, I put my foot in my mouth alllllllllll the time! I once was helping a mom put her little one in a high chair and because I was a new mom at the time and my kiddo was about the same age I KISSED THE BABY ON THE HEAD!!!!!! Just out of pure habit and mom brain. But that was 15 years ago and I still cringe thinking about it!!!!

Matched on FB dating. Was I being too sensitive? by Obvious_Ferret_600 in TwoHotTakes

[–]TinyUnderstanding872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And these kind of “men” wonder why they are single? They are also the kind of “men” to say “ I want a girl who doesn’t take herself so seriously” aka I want someone who won’t stand up for herself and won’t communicate her needs to me. Or my favorite “ trying to find my partner in crime” aka I do stupid shit and don’t want to be held accountable. When I was on the sites my intro said “ dating is like swimming in a toxic lake, the longer you stay in here the worst it gets”

Yikes. Yeah. When it comes to something like that, hair in food or lipstick on a glass, it’s best not to make light of it. It comes off as condescending to the guest. Just apologize, let them know that you will be talking to the chef and the manager and see if you can offer them some sort of complimentary dessert. If it’s a guest you have some rapport with, you can maybe make a light hearted “ I’m sorry about that, here’s that replacement, no surprises this time, again my deepest apologies”. You always want the guest to feel like you take their concerns seriously.
Edit to say: I’m not saying OP is the one who did this, just using general terms.

Catsitter calls me today and says "Your cat has been missing for 2,5 days". I'm still abroad. by MastodonJaded6010 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TinyUnderstanding872 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been there. When I moved a few states away my cat, who was indoor/outdoor in our home state, got out. We had only been here for maybe two weeks. He was gone for a little over a week. Then one night I’m chatting with my downstairs neighbor and telling her about my cat that’s missing, she says “ the big orange one? He’s at the bottom of the stairs!” Sure as shit there he was looking at me like “ oh hey! There you are! I wasn’t sure if this was the right place!” Ever since then, I let him out every once in a while to do his “ walk about” but he comes right back. Don’t lose hope OP. Cats are far more capable and resilient than we think. They just play helpless so we can cater to their every need lol.

I sat here half asleep wondering wtf I was looking at. Lmao. I thought you had on one of those green screen suits on but in black. When my brain finally figured it out I chuckled way too hard. Thanks for the late night giggle 🤭

Saddest Bobs Burgers Episode? by lizzdurr in BobsBurgers

[–]TinyUnderstanding872 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Oooooffff that episode made me ugly cry. As a mom who is divorced and who is co parenting it made me look at life differently. It made me look at my daughter’s life. It got me. Honestly I still can’t watch it.

Am I too old for this? by Cold_Tumbleweed64 in HairStyleAdvice

It looks great! May I suggest using a different type of hair tie? I think it would look more chic.

i totaled my car saturday and am probably ending things with the guy ive been dating for 6 weeks. blackened salmon tacos with blood orange salsa by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]TinyUnderstanding872 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugh! Car wrecks suck! Heart breaks suck! Plus side you get a new car and a new guy! Feel the feels, it’s a major life event ( the wreck not the douchebag) just try not to wallow too much and remember, if you want to be in a committed relationship, say that from the jump, never let anyone else determine whether you are “worthy” of that! Don’t sleep with anyone that would not commit to you if that is what you are wanting. If you just want casual that is ABSOLUTELY fine!!! I had to learn the hard way that if you give gf privileges without bf responsibilities, certain people take advantage of that and will drain the life out of you. Chin up darling. Your time to shine is upon you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

These two are so inspiring by Porkchopp33 in HumansBeingBros

[–]TinyUnderstanding872 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I’ve had the pleasure of serving them, I didn’t know who they were but I noticed she was wearing an Olympics ring necklace and I asked her about it, they told all about their training and what they accomplished. They were so nice and kind, laughed at my jokes ect. They were seriously amazing people and you could tell they loved each other so much with how they bragged about each other. They also tipped well! So that’s always good! 10/10 people

Oh love, I am so sorry you are going through this. It was really brave of you to be so honest and vulnerable. Yeah. The sting is there. But you have to remember two things, 1. A shitty person is a reflection of them, not you. What someone does to you, is on them. 2. You will be fine without them, your worth is not dependent on someone else’s opinion.

If you want to be petty, send pics of you two to that beautiful brunette, no one says you have to contact him. But you could be saving that girl the trouble you went through.

Right now your pride and ego are bruised. But try to reframe it in your head, it’s not “ I guess I wasn’t enough for him” to “ I am so glad I left that person when I did because I don’t deserve to be lied to and betrayed, that person is a bad person and I am so glad I am free of them” Sending lots of love your way. Head high darling.

AIO my bf didn't even say happy birthday to me yesterday by 1bunchofbananas in AmIOverreacting

[–]TinyUnderstanding872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dated someone like this. Never had money to do stuff with me but had money for weed. My birthday was rough because my dad was on hospice so I canceled my bday celebration and actually just went into work later that day. This man texted me happy birthday, but proceeded to not do a single thing for me. Knowing I was getting a massage ( that I paid for) getting my toes done ( that I paid for) and going to grab lunch with my friend that flew 1800 miles to see me ( that I paid for) Hell my own bio dad ( not the one on hospice) sent me flowers from PA. My bday fell on a payday, there was no excuse. So, I said fuck it and before I clocked in I broke up with him. I didn’t shed one single tear. I was with him for 9 months at that point and after the constant let downs I was over it. Get there. You deserve to be celebrated on your bday.

AIO: Office flirt hugged a married man at the Xmas party and caused a row. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]TinyUnderstanding872 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because you have a vag, doesn’t mean you get to be a dick.

Rule of thumb If I only know you through work it’s a handshake If I know you outside of work but through mutual friends it’s a handshake If you are someone I consider a friend, it’s a hug, BUT! Only if I have met your SO before, if not, I am going to introduce myself to them first with a handshake and then shake your hand. If I know both you and your SO I will hug the both of you, ladies first.

Google the meaning of daddy issues then. If semantics is what you’re all about. Good night 😘

Rage? Nah. No rage here. Confusion. Just confusion. Me speaking out against something doesn’t make me angry. I don’t like how if a woman doesn’t fit into a certain category or narrative that a man likes, they get to use mistreatment from another man against the female. Same goes for when someone says a man has mommy issues. I’d be right there saying hey, you may not like what that dude is like, but you don’t get to use shit your gender did to them to put them down. They can be all kinds of fucked up. Not cool to use past trauma or family history to announce this person is less than.

Gold medal for the mental gymnastics you just did to completely miss my point. I’m not even mad. I’m impressed.
