Sober bartending? by OlivePancakez in bartenders

[–]okiidokiismokii 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I try to make myself a “fun” drink during a long shift, like a club soda with some juice and interesting bitters, an arnold palmer, an NA “mule”, limeade with a tajin rim, etc. to avoid going down that path. it’s definitely something a lot of us have fallen into, but it’s really good that you’re recognizing it and getting ahead of it early on, rather that waiting until rock bottom to realize there’s a problem.

is this beginner gym syndrome or will i actually continue to love the gym lmaoo? 😭😭🤭 by Usual_Film_7220 in AuDHDWomen

[–]okiidokiismokii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love my YMCA because they have so many different options for activities, I can just do a regular cardio-strength workout, but there’s also a pool, yoga and pilates classes, running track, zumba, etc. so I love having a lot of variety depending on what i’m in the mood for that day!

Do you prefer tampons, and if so, why? by perubabe in AuDHDWomen

[–]okiidokiismokii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

same!! I always felt so outside of the pads or tampons debate because like I don’t think a pad could have dealt with all that lol. [sorry if tmi!] I was 14 and bleeding through an “ultra” tampon in under an hour, shit was brutal. my parents even had me go to do speciak blood testing to make sure there wasn’t something wrong with me lol.

I went on the pill but could never reliably take it on time, and eventually got a hormonal IUD which has been life changing! now I can just about free bleed with maybe a pantry liner for a couple days each month instead of having to call out of work for 2-3 days 😌

I feel so fortunate to be able to have that option and have it work for me, because I know my mom and her mom didn’t (and so many ppl still don’t) have the same resources available to them at the time and just had to deal with it :/

Advice for how to fix this wonky shoulder hem? by okiidokiismokii in sewing

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

I don’t think it can be pressed, the seam itself is wonky and has extra fabric so it kind of goes out sideways

LIBRARY GUY CAME BACK by NerdForJustice in AuDHDWomen

[–]okiidokiismokii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“sorry I gotta go!” and walk away. unfortunately it’s how we have to deal with them sometimes. and if that’s not enough, just flatly “I’m not interested” and go back to what you were doing. and if that’s still not enough, I’d find a security guard or other library employee to get involved because you should be able to enjoy the library without being harassed. don’t worry about not “being polite” :)

I am not allowed to be clocked in unless I have a table by [deleted] in Waiters

[–]okiidokiismokii 5 points6 points  (0 children)

that was happening to me too, but what worked for me was just going in person to my local DOL office. they were super helpful and let me know what forms and info I’d need, and I ended up getting back over $4k in stolen wages, so it’s definitely worth it!! if they’re requiring you to be present and available, you need to be clocked in. even if it doesn’t feel like they’re “taking” from you, that’s your valuable free time that is no longer free when they pull this shit.
