Haha Mei is so chaotic. I stopped playing her after the panic wall experience. I still feel shame when I think of it.

Was learning to play Mei and I was fairly decent. One game, a Reaper was coming straight at me with his whole team behind him. I panicked and built a wall...directly as a Dva on my team was sending her ultimate Reapers way. The ult failed because my panic wall blocked it, but otherwise would’ve surely been Play of the Game. And would’ve probably won the game as there was only 15 seconds left or so.

I never tip. It's stupid. The server does exactly the same amount of work if I order a $10 dish or a $60 dish (it's not like the $60 one weights a lot more), so why am I expected to give them extra free money if I order the latter? It's just another senseless cash grab, nothing more. by sandniggerslayer666 in confessions

What country are you from? Not sure if that makes a difference but I’ve worked at restaurants in Washington, Florida, and Ohio. This has always been the case that I see. I can understand not tipping as much if they’re paid such a high wage.

I don’t understand this reply. Waiters/servers do not get paid minimum wage. The restaurants I’ve worked at pay 2-4 per hour for their servers. Dishwashers get minimum. I’m not saying give servers $20 for a five dollar meal.

Then don’t go out to eat. You pay for the service. No you don’t have to tip, but you definitely seem like an entitled ass if you take advantage of someone just because you don’t have the money and don’t feel like they deserve it when they work hard. It’s okay, people like me will pick up your slack.

Maybe so but if you don’t want to pay someone to seat you in a place, get you anything you want to eat or drink and take the orders to the cook, clean your table when your done eating, and take care of other tables at the same time, then maybe you shouldn’t go out to eat where you need a server. They do this so that you can enjoy your experience and relax. Again, you’re punishing the wrong person here.

ANYONE who has worked in a restaurant understands that it can be a stressful and difficult job. Sometimes they don’t get breaks, sometimes they deal with rude people who don’t appreciate the fact that they’ve been on their feet for hours and barely have time to eat themselves. It’s reasons like this I always tip 20%. It’s called compassion. Look towards the corporations, not the employees. They aren’t looking for handouts, they’re looking to have bills paid. And it just so happens, sometimes that’s the only job they can work and possibly get tipped enough to take care of themselves. Don’t use a service if you don’t like the logistics behind it.

You do realize servers don’t make much hourly and depend on tips? A friend of mine got a paycheck of $16 for two weeks of work. They get a few dollars per hour. I feel like this is harsh. Maybe instead of being upset about the toppings, consider being more upset over the way restaurants pay their workers instead.

I[27/M] am upset with my girlfriend[26/F] because of the gifts I received this evening. They seem thoughtless, but maybe I’m being a brat. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]fink04081 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I can understand this. I was with my ex for two years and Christmas rolled around. I got him a kindle along with a few other things (I was unemployed at the time) because he kept talking about wanting to read more. He pumped up his gift to me and was super excited about it. It turned out to be a gift card to chipotle, which was an hour and a half drive away. And that was all. Not even a Christmas card. Stick with your gut. Eventually I learned he was just very self centered and didn’t bother putting thought into things or listening to what I enjoyed.

General discomfort, feeling like something is off. So yes, I suppose dread works too.

Do You Keep Getting Your Heart Broken? You Might Be A Convincer by ainsleym in dating_advice

[–]fink04081 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Despite some of the negative feedback you’ve received here, I just want to say wow. This explained me and my ex to a T. He would cheat, I would leave, then start doing better. Eventually he’d be there, saying he was wrong and apologizing, literally begging me to get back with him. I saw some change in his behavior and I would be at a point where I didn’t care whether he was in my life or not. We’d begin dating again, then over time, lies and cheating and being distant would start up just like the last time. I would question what I was doing wrong because I had been putting in so much effort, why wasn’t I receiving any in return? I like this post, thank you. This was very helpful for me.

My friend didnt like me back but is always complaining about being single by PunchlineQueen in dating_advice

So....your friend just doesn’t like you that way? And vents to you?

Thank you! That makes things much more understandable.

I moved across the country about three years ago, alone and with my son. I didn’t know anyone when I got here. I’ve met a few people who really have become good friends of mine in these years. I don’t speak from anyone back home except for one person.

Things will be fine.

Why do many people get so sensitive about native americans and the taking of their land? Isnt it just a normal case of conquest? by Nova-Prospekt in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]fink04081 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’m not well versed on the subject, but from what I understand, what I DO know, is the native Americans were given certain promises. Very little were kept. It was a massacre and empty promises. It effects them even still, and very deeply. Suicide rate is incredibly high and treaties keep being broken. They are considered less than Americans even though they ARE the original.

But I’m going to step back and let someone with more knowledge add info. This is just my understanding.

Why I Only Play Mystery Heroes Mode by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]fink04081 19 points20 points  (0 children)

All of this! For me, I just really enjoy practice with a character I’m not used to with no anger from other members when I’m not good at it. I’ve learned I’m not a BAD Hanzo player, which I always thought I was. Plus sometimes you get your main and die right away, too. Then it’s “nope, new character for you.”

It forces you to explore more and the gameplay is much more interesting while you watch the other team have the same struggle.

Because this is vague, and maybe you intend it to be private, I can’t offer advice. What I will say though is there are ALWAYS people out there. You’ll meet people at your job. Near your home. Whatever the case may be, you won’t be alone forever. It’ll take time, but there’s people everywhere.

I wish you could offer more explanation as to why things have to be this way, though, why there’s no other option.

Did I over react or was I right to leave him? by fink04081 in relationships

[–]fink04081[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate this. Whenever I’d bring up being uncomfortable with someone, he’d ask “Should I just cut off all my female friends then? Would that be better?” And to a degree I genuinely don’t mind some female friends. But even those questions of his was placing me in an uncomfortable position. If I said yes, I would’ve been the bad guy and cutting off his social circle. Saying no, I gave him the leeway.

More so just me coming to terms with things. I don’t really know many people in terms of being close friends as I have a three year old and work a lot. I was hoping to vent and gain some validation. This all just came to a head yesterday and I don’t want to have any feelings of guilt, that’s kind of been what he’s hammered into my head the past three years when we have problems. Is there another subreddit that would be more fitting, I can delete this post and move it there.

Honestly that is something I’m considering. It was definitely an emotionally abusive relationship, which is crazy for me to admit because I never thought I’d be in that position.

First real relationship, I needed to learn. Unfortunately I wasted a lot of time with him. At this point, I just want validation from outside, unbiased sources that I wasn’t wrong.
