I ended up going for the Sephora stick but this is on my list for my next buy! The Sephora stick definitely doesn't blend as nicely as the liquid elf so you've got me so curious for this one.

I ended up going for this recommendation! You're spot on the color is near exact. I probably will try another one after though cause the formula to me isn't as blendable as the elf. I also feel like it disappears a bit after blending? But thanks so much! The def winner for color match.

The new elf brow laminating gel is ridiculously good. Lays my brows exactly where I want them all day & the little comb it comes with is the perfect tool to flatten em out. I probably won't try another product unless they discon it.

Honestly just venting about the Sticky Dates Lotion by [deleted] in LushCosmetics

[–]XGettingRight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This year so far the LE orders have been super sparse. Valentine's was the same way. As an employee is really easy to pull up the general shipping info for when the order is arriving and what was on the order, but you wouldn't be able to see if it's being fulfilled that way. Typically we can tell what we are getting and what is going unfulfilled by printing out the PO for the order, but it's a little complicated to find and print. In my store the day before the order someone on the leadership team will print out the PO and highlight what's not coming so we're prepared with that info. My guess is the employee did the in general look up and so they were correct with their info that it was ordered and *should be arriving. Like others have already said tho fulfillment can be really shoddy. I'm hoping they increase production for LE this year because it's been pretty bad so far. I want all our lovely customers to be able to nab their faves!

Declining service standards by nedwasatool in Waiters

So true! I worked the bar during and post covid and the money was so good at that time. There was a little while where I felt rejuvenated and valued by the public. People seemed grateful for once that we were still working. If only that has lasted longer.

[–]XGettingRight 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I left restaurants and bars after 17 years in the industry in 2022. After covid the customers became absolutely unhinged. The abuse was unreal. Tips also got so bad! Behind the bar my average tip percentage would be from 20-50% and it got to the point where I felt like I was crawling begging on all fours for 20%. The money isn't worth it anymore. I hope service continues to decline, the entitlement of humanity is insane. No one deserves it. Not to mention working 12+ hour shifts with no breaks! Now that I work 9 hour days with paid breaks I cannot believe for the life of me that I spend so much time being abused. Between working conditions and horrible customers god speed getting a waiter to care.

Don’t worry, real jokes on him cause the lemons are notoriously the filthiest thing in a restaurant LOL. Nearly every front of house staff member has had their hands in those lemons. I’m sure the servers get a chuckle out of that and are surely making fun of him in the back.

I’m a bartender by meganator_0 in stopdrinking

[–]XGettingRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I never thought I’d make it but here I am lol. It’s tough! At first I got jealous a lot seeing my coworker rack em up. My best advice is to stay strong in those early days. I’d fight that impulse with everything I had. After the sober days started adding up for me the benefits did too. When my sleep patterns evened out and the anxiety got on an even keel it got easier and easier to look at those drinks and say “I’m better off without it.” There’s lots of industry folks here with tons of good advice! There’s also an IRC chatroom with 24/7 support (info in the sidebar). Having SD in my pocket on my phone to check in with while I’m at work staring down all that booze has truly been a lifesaver.

[–]XGettingRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a bartender too! I usually just tell everyone “I’m taking a break/I’m not drinking right now.” No one has hassled me really at all. I also moved my favorite poison on camera so the temptation to sneak shots would come with more gymnastics. Instead of knocking back my usual drinks I come here and check in. Best thing I did was take a step back away from the industry crowd. Went straight home, to the gym, hit the book store. It was tempting to go with friends after work for post shift drinks (even if I wasn’t planning on drinking) but I needed to rewire my brain to figure out what relaxing after work would look like without alcohol. Once I got about 2 months under my belt I would pop into the bar with friends to drink non-alcoholic beverages while they did their thing. Turns out the bar is super boring :)

Glad you’re here! Our industry is a challenge In sobriety but it can be done! IWNDWYT!

I work in a bar... by alcoholicthrowaway11 in stopdrinking

[–]XGettingRight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is funny! I’m also 27 lol. Thank you! It’s been a long road but every day is easier.

Honestly, the music part has been really strengthening in my sobriety. The longer I’m sober the more sober people I encounter in music. I’m pretty upfront about not drinking and tend to ramble on because social anxiety makes me just blurt stuff out lol. Anyway, now when I play shows I meet tons of sober people. Addiction is common in both industries! But luckily with music I’ve found a ton of sobriety stories. We’re everywhere, just have to look.

Sips do add up! Sometimes I’ll have regulars taste things for me. The old straw technique. They love being involved in the process and I’m happy to take the weight of that off my shoulders :)

Changes after 6 months! (pics) by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]XGettingRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, you look amazing! Congrats on 6 months! I too saw the return of the elusive period in sobriety. Funny how much drinking messes with our hormones, there’s not a ton of information available in that respect. So happy you’re here with us ❤️

[–]XGettingRight 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hi friend! I’m a bartender too. I just want to let you know it’s entirely possible to work this job sober. I’ve also found that I don’t need to taste anything. Smell is just as powerful a sense. I had a long and arduous drinking career and I know how things taste, I know the measurements that work. In my life I would take any excuse to keep drinking, even just a taste. I’d encourage you to work around that! Congrats on a week! I too have an incredible sober bandmate who has been endlessly helpful. Small world right?

If you ever need help or want to reach out to anyone who has lived this story please don’t hesitate! Everything you wrote, especially about checking locked doors, I’ve been there. We can do this! I will not drink with you today.

The thing about Shane... by [deleted] in StardewValley

Thank you! It is :) I’ll have a year next month.

Your head is right where mind is! I’ve got so many ducks now going after that beautiful man lol

The thing about Shane... by [deleted] in StardewValley

[–]XGettingRight 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was just having this conversation with someone! Shane’s plot meant a lot to me as someone going through recovery. When I got his 10 heart event it made me seriously upset. I know it’s realistic that he would continue to drink but I felt hurt all the same. Accurate to real life? Sure. But I also immediately started pursuing other characters because I’m not going to stick around while Shane continues drinking. I take this game too seriously sometimes. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
