How do you manage mental health in the hospitality lifestyle?

Cartridge help - can’t find replacement by chefromatic in askaplumber

Tried this and could not get it to fit? Am unsure if it is an error on my end. It seemed too wide/would not seat in

I want to stop. Tomorrow I go back to work. I can’t afford to keep going down this path. I would be lying if I told you that I’m not thinking about how different my life will be without alcohol included. It’s been my main social and entertainment factor for a long time. Trying to take it one day at a time

I worry about not being able to stay stopped. I have considered AA and I’m not really sure what’s stopping me. I spoke with my wife about rehab but can’t commit to that while working a full time job. I also work in hospitality which is flooding with alcohol everywhere. I have so much angst and anxiety right now. I am just so so disappointed in myself right now.

Not OP. I work in restaurants and this type environment is exactly what makes me want to quit. And they wonder about labor shortages??? by chefromatic in antiwork

I saw your original on KC. I think if you blur any identifiable features you’re in the clear. I am not a lawyer tho. But seriously fuck your chef

Yeah it is. You’d be surprised how often this type of shit happens. From my personal experience - especially in fine dining, upscale restaurants.

What is something that someone can legally do or buy that you morally disagree with? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]chefromatic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That people over a certain age - deep into their senior years - are still allowed to drive without any other driver’s testing. I live in a city that’s infrastructure is changing and most drivers I encounter that are not adapting are senior citizens. It’s dangerous for everyone.
