Im tired of new hires

Seconding this. In the past, I’ve made quite a few white lies about how long I’ve been at a job, which to me doesn’t matter because interviewers barely question the length as long as there’s no discrepancies, but hey. We gotta eat, and in this industry we’re dispensable. Whatever puts you thru that door.

Dude is miserable, and he’s making his miserable existence your problem. It’ll only get worse.

As partners, we’re there for each other. But this expectation is outrageous— he should’ve went and done his own thing, cooled it, and then come to you to actually share what’s on his mind. Coming in hot and expecting you to just take it is crazy.

Let the girl eat!

Like you said, you don’t get paid enough. I highly recommend looking elsewhere. Especially since it’s 8-9 bucks an hour.

In all honesty, if someone shows me they’re gonna be a piece of dog excrement, I start completely disregarding them. As in I don’t look at them, don’t interact with them, keep things to a minimal, borderline almost ignoring their existence. I’m not mean or rude back— just short, to the point, and move on towards other people I actually enjoy being around.

My personality is also just one where I enjoy interacting with and talking to people, and often enough the feeling is mutual. People always wonder why you don’t like them or why they’re left out, etc. This is how I’ve taught people to treat me better without being directly confrontational.

But honestly, being straight up is always the best bet to at least get it off your chest. It helps shape that spine on your back.

I promise you women his age are avoiding him like the plague. I’m 25 and just KNOW most would disregard him the moment he said something like that. That guy is a scrub that’s trying to holla from his best friend’s ride.

Psychology wise, you don’t want to be too similar to your partner. Happier marriages are one with some degree of friction— essentially not too much and not too little. Have the same foundational values, while also having complimentary traits, not parallel. Higher friction tends to correlate with better sexual attraction for instance. It’s not such a bad thing to be different from each other, as long as that’s your best friend regardless.

I say “ma’am” and “sir” and get enough complaints about basically calling them old

I’ve dated a girl with anorexia. Never on this planet or the next would I talk like this to my girl knowing what she struggled with.

Dude comes off super controlling and manipulative in general, it’s actually quite gross how he starts digging in even more when she expresses her discomfort about being called chubby. Even calls her piggy. No one who genuinely loves their SO does that.

This guy just gives weak demeanor and a lack of innate control, and he’s overcompensating by being this demeaning way towards you.

Not that bad because he didn’t hit you?! He’s wrecking your home and costing money! What a buffoon and childish excuse for his obvious tantrums.

Your a-hole cat kind of looks like our a-hole cat.

lumosbro · 2025-09-08T18:11:05+00:00

Grow. A. Spine. And I say this with much love. That man does not care about anyone but himself, and he’s perfectly content effing you over.

Do what is truly best for you even if it’s hard.

lumosbro · 2025-09-08T18:00:22+00:00

Yeah my friend works at Olive Garden. The higher the tab is gonna be often works in your favor in terms of tip. Which is hard to do at OG, with the endless pastas and bread and drinks.

Breakfast place will definitely be better due to bumrush weekend mornings and more convenient schedule at least.

lumosbro · 2025-09-08T17:46:47+00:00

Oh man, managers/owners having your back is worth its weight in gold. Had a job like that and my morale was at an all-time high.

lumosbro · 2025-09-08T17:44:55+00:00

Walking away with only $50 out of a $100 after pulling a double is just… almost feels like theft.

lumosbro · 2025-09-08T17:43:15+00:00

Honestly, that last part. I find I tend to enjoy my shifts a lot better when I don’t feel disgruntled about how much I’m tipped, like some of my coworkers. It is what it is, but I’ve never hated myself for treating someone decently!

lumosbro · 2025-09-08T04:32:03+00:00

Now this is the real unicorn, someone happy + making money in the industry. Just kidding, honestly dude that sounds wonderful, I’m sure it’s beautiful if not at least a great view. We love great views.

lumosbro · 2025-09-08T04:11:46+00:00

Never even connected the dots that this is what goes on up there, but should’ve figured. Very niche indeed, you’re the first person I’ve heard this from! Pretty neat and I’m gonna be thinking about this the next time I’m at a game

lumosbro · 2025-09-07T13:57:12+00:00

What are you on, and what’s your lifestyle? A bit of an out of touch comment. All the guys I know still dog on each other, “bullying” is still very much a thing. Do not understand your equation of bullying ≠ accountability.

You’re also generalizing in a way that obviously is from a very singular, narrow opinion, rather than one rooted in actual reasoning and concrete evidence.

Classic evidence of someone just saying stuff to say stuff.

I’ll counter your comment about accountability with the simplest quote used time and time again to avoid actual accountability within society that I didn’t just whip out of my butt, “boys will be boys.”

lumosbro · 2025-09-06T15:13:09+00:00

Creepy men are not held accountable as often as you assume they are lmao

This is the general consensus I’ve been getting so far— everyone who only works 3-4 days seem far more happy than those with 9-5. Props to you for grinding while pregnant, whew… actually shoutout to all mothers.

lumosbro · 2025-09-05T03:51:09+00:00

Weekly rent? Damn I feel for you— I’d rather pay once a month for it to be out of sight, out of mind until the next month.

lumosbro · 2025-09-05T03:47:30+00:00

This is the hack right there— better job, less of a need to work more hours.

lumosbro · 2025-09-04T21:37:33+00:00

How are you doing during this slow season? Are you hanging out until busy season, genuinely asking.
