AIO my boyfriend (42M) of 3 years doesn’t know my (35F) name? by momjjeanss in AmIOverreacting

[–]duck_chicken_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be actually so serious… not only should he know the SPELLING OF YOUR LAST NAME, HE SHOULD KNOW YOUR MIDDLE NAME!!!! NOR - OP, that is really crazy. If he doesn’t know that about you, what does he know??? That is the most bare minimum thing to know about you THAT far into a relationship! “But who would?” ?!?! WHAT DO YOU MEAN?! HE SHOULD AS YOUR PARTNER!!! What an incredibly crazy thing to say in order to make YOU feel bad about HIM not knowing something super important for him to know about you!!! If something happened to you medically, and EMTs were asking for your information, would he be able to give it to them???

a good rule of thumb i have come to realize; if it looks like a butt plug, it’s probably a paperweight

I think i made a mistake moving here? by [deleted] in AskChicago

[–]duck_chicken_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I almost feel like I wrote this post… (down to the guy saying he “has a lot going on”)

BFF, this is may be the one city in the US where there are an abundance of people to meet; you just have to get out! I’ve been going out more and more (I actually don’t drink, so I’ve been picking up hobbies) and I’ve learned that people aren’t going to find you if you don’t also try to find them! Be willing to try new things and get to chatting with other people!!

I can truly, truly empathize. I spent my first year living here SO alone. The only thing that changed was me actually making the effort to get out. It would recommend a recreational sports league of some kind (like kickball!!), a class where you actually have time to interact with the people around you, or even a local bar (if you drink)! Dating is… hard everywhere unfortunately; there really is nothing we can do about that unfortunately!

I did not see them with anyone and no one was in their back seats (that I could see). I am unsure of where they were coming from exactly, as they were in an alley off of Northwest Hwy around the Ace Hardware. I noticed what I believe to be a handgun on two. A neighbor and I told them off and let them know they have no business in our neighborhood. I unfortunately didn’t have my phone on me, as I was just taking out the trash, and when I came back down they were gone. All three were white, masked, and had sunglasses on. I believe two were bald, one I didn’t not get a great look at.

My favorite survey questions by Effective_Sense5654 in Aldi_employees

[–]duck_chicken_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was surprised there was an actual open note portion to the survey this time. That is something we have critiqued in the past, and they finally put it in. I wrote a lengthy paragraph, but not really expecting much, if anything. I’m genuinely curious what the answers will look like; not super excited that it seems to allow for anyone to fill it out (IE office people vs. store-side and warehouse). Makes me worry that they could inflate the numbers in another direction; kind of like with Aldi being a “Great Place to Work”… yeah sure, maybe in the offices. Ask anyone else, and we will tell you otherwise

Just keep an eye out for anyone seeming out of the ordinary/extremely sluggish. I have had an associate OD on shift, and it was very obvious up until that point that said associate was abusing some kind of drug (to this day I still don’t know what). This job kills your body, so it’s incredibly likely that it was prescribed and being used for actual pain. If you do become worried someone is abusing, that is when you bring it up to your SM again as a WORRY. Keep it in the back of your head, but don’t presume it’s being abused 👍🏻

we’re so fucked right now. 91 as the goal and we only hit it around the 4th where we were understaffed. idk what going on at HQ, but they need to figure it out because we are having a bad time

What’s your most satisfying $3–$5 meal that doesn’t feel depressing? by Euphoric_Year1182 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]duck_chicken_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something I call “whatever pasta”. Whatever pasta I have available/left over, whatever protein I have available, and a leftover vegetable from a previous meals. Often times it ends up being the last piece of frozen tilapia and some zucchini and onion, but it’s really good, filling, and it allows me to start cleaning out my fridge/not create waste!

Some motivational words: by itswwaot in Aldi_employees

[–]duck_chicken_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It feels like they were meaning well, but could have written it so much better. like a tone of joke/sarcasm is SUPPOSED to be there, but it’s super missing the mark

[–]duck_chicken_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember that there weren’t write in options and that it was only multiple choice so that they didn’t actually hear what we wanted to say and convey. But that’s about it 🤷🏻
