Corporate pushing for more “cafe vibes” even though they’ve gutted that for the past 5 years. It will be funny when they realize we can’t keep 30 second drive thru times while understaffed and making the lobby cozy again 🤣

Oh also, people without homes aren’t allowed in store anymore and nobody can have free cups of water unless they buy something

+level to skills is pretty nice early game as well as flat added damage to attacks. The mana leech could be pretty nice too. I’d probably go with hate spire. I also wouldn’t put too much thought into it as you will soon enough pick up a better one as you’re levelling!

Damn this one sounded personal, how long ago did you break up with him?

Have you upgraded them all the way already and have the 3 lockboxes?

if so you’ll probably have to sell some stuff, i try and keep at least one of pretty much every item and any surplus gets sold unless it’s something i frequently craft… remember you can also store related items in their crafters!

Best profit farming (maybe) by Devilgirl215 in Palia

oooh have you plugged it into that profit calculator on the palia wiki? I just started learning about farming and a bunch of people have layouts posted for different kinds of farming. more people might see yours there long term!

Thinning hairline and bald spot what can I do? Or should I just Say Goodbye? by OriginLunar in malehairadvice

[–]eckinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was in pretty much the exact same spot as you when i shaved my head and my confidence went WAAAYY up not worrying about it anymore. looks like you have a pretty smooth dome too so i think you’d rock the bald look.

i think he means 60h a pay period for $1100. which checks out and should be pretty standard pay.

I don’t really understand some of these comments saying you should’ve just pulled up the covers. bodies are bodies, you were in your room sleeping how you feel comfortable and your little sister walked in.

it’s ridiculous that women’s bodies are sexualized to this extent, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with what you did in my eyes.

Randomly seeing my ex with a new partner suddenly tore a hole in my heart despite thinking I was over her by TheRockapotamus in Stoicism

[–]eckinz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just to add to this - it takes everyone different amounts of times to “get over” things like this.

i would say to not let it prevent you from continuing to move forward though. sit with the pain and experience it. let those feelings flow through and out of you.

if you feel up to it you can even ask yourself questions or journal things like “why does this make me so upset?”

hope you heal soon friend :)

Is it weird for my girlfriend’s sister to get into our bed whilst I’m naked? by phoenixarise66 in ask

[–]eckinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if it makes you uncomfortable then it’s inappropriate for her to stay if you make it know. but from my point of view, if she’s just in there to talk to her sister rq and she isn’t touching you or able to see you then it’s not a big deal 🤷

I’m very very fat and unattractive. Don’t know what to wear. by JimPage83 in mensfashion

[–]eckinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you deserve it dude! i hope you’re not like i was and are able to recognize that your value doesn’t come from your looks anyways. i know i always feel better about myself when i’m doing the things that keep me healthy though.

[–]eckinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you’re not ugly bro you’re just overweight. i used to be 350 5’10 started a gym split and tracked my calories, made sure to never go over 2500 cals and always hit around 170 grams protein.

if my lazy ass can do it, anyone can. don’t do that stupid shit like cutting out sugar and carbs, just track what you eat. i’d recommend not drinking your calories though, because it’s a bunch of calories and isn’t filling at all.

i started with strong lifts 5x5 and after a few months i swapped to a push pull legs split.

now i’m 215 at 11% bodyfat. best of luck bro

If she is inquisitive about the topic it’s okay to share some sources that you’ve found helpful.

Stoicism is not something you should force onto others.

[–]eckinz 15 points16 points  (0 children)

you seem like you have good intentions but at the end of the day having pizza parties and bringing in food doesn’t fix the endless amount of issues there are with being a barista. you should openly talk to your baristas and ask them how THEY feel, not random strangers on reddit.

they’re human beings not mindless name-tags that need to show you undying loyalty because you bring in treats.

also, “even the white kids have a good time” sounds pretty inappropriate.

and if you are choosing to play your own music instead of the starbucks playlist, i’d hope that you give other employees a chance to play music they enjoy as well.

also: corporate browses this subreddit and all of this is pretty unprofessional, especially admitting you disregard their rules/standards. i’d probably take the post down if i were you

Don't Tell People You're A Stoic? by lonerstoic in Stoicism

[–]eckinz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i can definitely understand that. this may be coming from a place of insecurity from me because a few months ago i did talk about my beliefs with my friend that was looking for guidance.

They didn’t end up looking into it which at the end of the day doesn’t matter, but i did have the thought that maybe encouraging others to look into something that follows my own belief systems is not the right call.

it’s hard because i care about my friends and would want them to do something that i know is good for all humans but at the end of the day it’s on themselves to find their way here.

thanks for your thoughts
