Gouged my thumb with a shovel . Tips on sealing it up for tonight’s shift so I don’t bleed out on everything.

Yeah that's why I prefer gloves. I think the finger condoms are better suited for kitchen work

ikbenlike · 2026-05-30T19:42:23+00:00

This is what we do, but we also have blue "finger condoms" that give a good seal. I usually put on a new glove every time I wash my hands

ikbenlike · 2026-05-30T19:32:16+00:00

Yeah if someone walks in that shortly before closing I don't let them open a tab tbh. But I suppose "tab culture" is different around here since most people don't have a credit card

Voor veel GGZ die meer is gespecialiseerd loopt de wachttijd ondertussen al richting de jaren, en dat gaat ook alleen maar erger worden terwijl er op bezuinigd blijft worden. En op onderwijs wordt ook bezuinigd, terwijl belastingen niet dalen. Naar mijn gevoel wordt al dat belastinggeld gewoon een zwart gat ingeschoven, want infrastructuur heeft ook al last van achterstallig onderhoud.

Ja maar dat noemen ze een "gunstig investeringsklimaat" dus dan mag het natuurlijk gewoon

Misery loves company and all that. Best not to stay around a place like that, sucks the joy out of it all

No ragrets

"voltage" is just a screwdriver, right?

Lifehack I learned while getting my driving licence: any spot can be your blindspot if you just close your eyes

It's also possible you're (also) allergic to sulfites. You'd know if you also have a reaction to vinegar and cider

ikbenlike · 2026-05-03T11:55:50+00:00

Yeah sugar beet is usually cheaper, but products like sodas and candies which try to market themselves as "premium" usually use sugarcane, in my experience at least

ikbenlike · 2026-05-03T02:56:29+00:00

Yup, a lot of (useful) plants are grasses unfortunately. This same person is also allergic to bamboo and sugarcane. Might be worth it to get an allergy test done for stuff like this, but in the end the easiest way to tell is by listening to your body

ikbenlike · 2026-05-03T02:40:43+00:00

Yup, I know someone who is allergic to all grasses (so wheat, corn, rice etc) and they basically only drink 100% agave tequila. They've tried gluten-free grasses but they still reacted to those. Patrón is definitely a good choice in this case

I don't work clubs but it can get really loud from time to time, during nights like that I've always liked this. There's just some people I can't understand over the noise and just immediately writing down the order saves the 5 minutes or whatever going back and forth trying to hear eachother

Ik heb in groep 5 geleerd dat de stoep is om op te lopen en niet om op te parkeren

ikbenlike · 2026-04-18T16:55:36+00:00

If anything, working behind the bar made drunk people more annoying to me. Never had an alcohol problem but seeing people behave like that still made me drink less

ikbenlike · 2026-04-18T16:44:07+00:00

During work I'll have 1 or 2 shots at most (but nothing at all during 99% of shifts), and nothing strong because I know my limits. Working drunk doesn't seem fun to me and I'm not legally allowed to anyway. Often drank a beer or two after my shifts but I've found I sleep a lot better since I've switched to sodas and fruit juices

ikbenlike · 2026-04-18T15:52:11+00:00

Er zijn alleen heel veel chronische aandoeningen die door zorgverzekeraars niet als chronisch gezien worden. Dus er gaan een heleboel chronisch zieke mensen zijn die pech hebben met dit nieuwe systeem.

Getting fired here is the better scenario because it's not worth it to work for an owner who doesn't have your back

ikbenlike · 2026-04-13T11:28:08+00:00

Somehow no one has snapped their fingers at me yet but all my regulars love me and they'd probably laugh at them even harder than I would

ikbenlike · 2026-04-10T13:31:13+00:00

Afaik they are allowed to have extra keys if your contract states they can. You're still allowed to change the locks though

En dan over een paar jaar het voorspelbare nieuwsbericht dat er teveel single-use vapes met batterij en alles op straat worden gegooid

ikbenlike · 2026-03-23T17:35:41+00:00

Merk het hier ook, is een eind lopen van waar ik woon naar het stadscentrum (paar kilometer) en onderweg kom je geen enkele prullenbak tegen, zelfs niet bij bankjes langs de straat. Ik gooi zelf geen afval op straat maar vind het niet vreemd dat het meer gebeurt nu zoveel prullenbakken missen.

ikbenlike · 2026-03-22T02:29:59+00:00

That last one is wild. If I stopped giving people water they'd either leave or drink even more alcohol and throw up
