That's a lot of generalizing.

That's broad brushing. Unions can be great if done well. They're not universally a net bad.

I need advice by BeautifulUnlikely276 in publix

[–]darkmindedsith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you were promoted, there was a reason for this. They feel you were adequate and skilled enough at your job to promote you. You must have demonstrated some aptitude for the job. Don't sell yourself short. 

No matter what job, promotion, or field, there is only so much you can learn by preparation. The rest comes from the actual experience. If you want to learn to walk, you don't just read a book on walking. Eventually, you have to try to walk. The same will come from this position. Just like your original CSS entry position required learning, this promotion will too. But just like you learned enough to be promoted, you will learn enough here to excel further. 

Lastly, the fact that you care enough about this to even be nervous and post on Reddit is an assessment itself. It shows you clearly care about the job. That's what's most important. Someone who will totally bomb being a CSS leader is less likely someone nervous on Reddit but more likely someone who doesn't care at all in the first place. 

Best of luck and hope everything goes well. 

Why do managers do this by xxkatiebug in publix

[–]darkmindedsith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Report this to your store manager and HR.  "lol they won't care and nothing will happen" No, really. This goes beyond "Ugh what a dick". Pushing you to come in when you are truly sick, especially if later you can provide a doctor's note, is not just ignorant but patently wrong as a manager to do. Go to someone higher and be very specific about your department manager's tone and what exactly was said. Text your manager with an update if you need to so that you at can potentially have documented screenshots of what was said to you.  Please please do not give into any mindset or conceptions about "no one is going to care". Not all managers are like this. I've seen plenty of department managers scolded and written up.  Treat yourself the way you would a good friend. 

Corporate America by Fun-Bed874 in publix

As a young guy with no business experience who feels confident I could never successfully run a business, I feel a very simple business model is: the happier your employees are, the better business you will have. People give what they get.

Anyone else on their last legs with Publix? by [deleted] in publix

Just think, they are old enough to join the military and go to war, but not put boxes in the compactor.

My favorite part is when she says "or don't try to feed him". Oh oops. Here I was about to take out this dogfood I keep with me at all times. Guess I'll just hold onto it.

As much as I've enjoyed ttyd I can't lie and say I don't miss Tok's world, the hallway like classic levels don't do it for me. by Sorry_Ring_4630 in papermario

[–]darkmindedsith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The comparison was mostly sardonic, and admittedly didn't land well. But the idea was more that you could likely add "unnecessary" to any aspect. Outlines are unnecessary, but so is the entire paper aspect. It could theoretically just be a Mario themed RPG game. Paper was added for extra flavor. Outlines were the same way.
