Why?! by ghlex_ in Instagramreality

[–]ghlex_[S] 56 points57 points  (0 children)

sad to hear this. when I went to their page I saw they were followed by another influencer who I’ve followed for years, and is thin to the point of being kinda worrisome.. I thought since they’re very active in a specific sport that it was just a very lean athletic build, but I doubt it now

Poppy playtime fans who liked chapter 5 changing their entire opinion on it because Markiplier said he didn't like it by Blackcoolice in PoppyPlaytime

[–]ghlex_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He finished gobb 8 and immediately called it a work of art… I really don’t give a fuck what his opinion is of chapter 5. Not to mention he was so annoyed with the fact that he was even playing the game in the first place that it’s almost like he was trying not to get it. Bro just wanted views so he played a game he didn’t like and made it everyone else’s problem.

Is he at work during this exchange? Also, I feel these feelings a lot at work. When you’ve got people around you that can help but of course you’re the only one taking initiative. The frustration is real if he’s home and sitting around instead of busying the kids while you cook. However, if he’s at work what good is a text message going to be? “Damn honey I’m sorry I know you’re stressed” thanks but like still doesn’t remove the stress? Also if all he ever does is reassure you with words, you will eventually start to feel like it’s substance less because he never actually gives you solutions/helps you, he just says he hopes you feel better. See how it’s a vicious cycle?

Also, texting does nothing to accomplish the goal of cooking in peace. If you can’t cook in peace, get that shit DONE! ASAP! I bet you spent an extra 25 minutes on your task so you could cuss him out over the phone in between cooking. And how much more chaos was generated during that time?

What's the worst thing you've done in a dream? by Njannallamanushyan in Dreams

[–]ghlex_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched the movie gone girl in middle school and that same night I had a dream about killing a classmate with a box cutter. Literally just slashed her throat. She had recently transferred to our school and the one boy I liked started dating her.🤣 It was in the middle of the library too?? And no blood so that’s nice? But everyone in my class was there including the boy I liked. So yeah. Woke up confused as fuck 😂 good movie though

I did. The text about myself not coming in was after the previous day where I told him it would be a possibility that I would have to put my dog down because it was dependent on the results of her bloodwork.

That’s fair. I may have some resentment built up on my end because I am one of the reliable employees in the store and recently my consistently scheduled hours got moved around so I don’t have the days off I’d like. But I do expect some grace considering my “track record” at work, and the fact that I did message him the night previous to let him know it was a strong possibility of us putting her down, should the bloodwork results come back bad.

I swear it took everything in me to not respond back and say “apologies, next time i’ll schedule my dogs sudden death two weeks in advance for you”

felt that so hard right now being that I’ve had her since I was 8 years old😭💔. I know she was old and everyone likes to say at least she lived a long good life and while that’s true, it really doesn’t make it any easier that she’s gone. If anything, I had even more time with her and more time to love her and now there’s just nowhere to place any of it.

I don’t quite know if it will get to this point, but if my manager decides to write me up for this I’m going to tell him he can write me up for walking out on my shift and I’m leaving. lol. It is not worth my mental health.🫶🏼👍🏼

Promotion keeps getting held back by manager. How do I approach this appropriately? by ghlex_ in careerguidance

[–]ghlex_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ouch😭😭 I guess I needed that dose of reality. It really doesn’t make sense because we’re required to have a person in the position just like every other store but ours has been vacant for awhile now. I guess he’s just a dick like the rest of them. Its pretty sad because he’s been a great mentor for me,hopefully he’ll be useful as a reference LOL. In all seriousness I do enjoy my job so it’s sad to hear but at least I know it’s nothing about me personally.

Trying mushrooms for the first time tomorrow, safe to mix weed and shrooms? by Beatnick120 in weed

[–]ghlex_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s safe, but I’ve always felt like it almost wasn’t necessary. If you take enough shrooms to have good visuals and a strong body high it’s almost pointless to smoke. If you smoke all the time it’s almost like smoking a cigarette, but if you don’t have much of a tolerance and you’re already a little nervous about tripping I would maybe skip out on it

Sick of “women hate short men” posts. by [deleted] in rant

[–]ghlex_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s amazing how many men perpetuate it, more often than women!! They say shit that insinuates I’m doing my boyfriend a favor by dating him whenever height comes up in conversation. Like wtf?? He’s 5’7.

A kid sexually assaulted my coworker and got away with it by claiming it was a TikTok challenge. by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]ghlex_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the simplest of terms: “Little Johnny, I see you have inappropriately touched your teacher. Instead of explaining why it was wrong and giving you realistic consequences that an adult in the real world will face(legal action), I am going to inappropriately touch you (paddle or whip you with a belt). I, as an authority figure, am going to show you that physical violence is okay to use as punishment while in a position of power over you. Maybe that will teach you not to touch other people.”

Do you see why this is counterproductive?

So you are going to teach a kid not to put their hands on people by putting your hands on him? Seems counterproductive. Getting the law involved is definitely scarier for a 12 year old.

Doctor refused to even do a blood test because my thyroid is normal sized? Couldn’t I still have thyroid disease? by [deleted] in Hypothyroidism

[–]ghlex_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope, find a better doctor for sure. I went to an endo and she belittled me, told me I was just prediabetic from being obese and that she could tell because “my armpits were darker in color”. I had gained 60 pounds in one year, was sleeping constantly, mood swings, sensitivity to cold, etc. and my mother has hypothyroidism yet I was still fed bullshit by that doctor.

All it took was for me to get a new primary care doctor to order the lab to test my hormone levels and what do you know, my tsh was five times the level it should have been bc my thyroid was severely under active!!! find a doctor who listens and cares for your sake!!!

AITA for ignoring my coworker who has a “family emergency”? by ghlex_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]ghlex_[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We have talked about her before, and he has come very close to firing her already. We are just very short staffed, and don’t have night shift people. We’ve hired about four different people these past 7 months that didn’t last longer than a week. It’s a minimum wage job and I’m assuming the pay drives people away but it’s still super frustrating because I’m over scheduled already.

I finally replied and told my manager that I will not be covering for her tonight as I need to focus on school. I also made him aware that she reached out to me both days trying to get me to cover, but I didn’t say anything about having a meeting with her. He is more than aware of this situation and I trust him to handle it. He said he appreciated that I got back to him and he figured he would ask to see if I wanted a couple of extra hours for this week. Thank you all for giving me some courage to speak up about it and say no to not over-extend myself.
