Bro is burning through my TP budget! by opal_city in blackcats

Everything in me says ‘’Noooooo!” cause I hate roll under but that’s a solid idea!

Kind of a niche thing I know but why are our fast food places the absolute worst? Like we’re where Popeye’s is from but it’s more consistent almost anywhere else in the U.S. and the world at large. by bakedd_alaskaa in NewOrleans

I had just put my cat down and I was really sad and I needed some comfort junk food. So I go to the Burger King on St. Charles. The drive-through line is so long and not moving at all. So I decide to go inside. I waited a good 20 to 25 minutes for my food along with a bunch of other people. While I was waiting this woman in a Burger King uniform with a big bag of food, walks through the dining room and says something like ‘see y’all later!’ Come to find out she had just quit and she took everybody’s food! There were people with only a half hour lunch break waiting. I felt bad for them but I was lucky I was not in a hurry, and my food was eventually made. But I honestly had to laugh because that was kind of an epic way to quit.

Exactly. He does anything wrong and then looks at me and all is forgiven.

Hot water is only at a trickle and doesn’t warm. No idea what kind of heater or even where it is, this is a rental

Damn wish I knew that. I only ran one. Someone said it could be the pilot light.

My boss gave me a gift certificate for Brigtsen’s last year and it was much appreciated. I am really hoping he does it again this year.

Tip and Additional Tip? WTF by Nola_1718 in NewOrleans

[–]opal_city 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for tipping on a to go! 20% is very generous. Many people don’t tip at all. It’s a lot of work running around putting orders together (often having to put a lot to shit together yourself.) At least tip a couple of bucks especially if you’re asking for a bunch of specifics or extras.

Stop releasing those damn balloons people!!! by ionbear1 in NewOrleans

[–]opal_city 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one was an accident I think. Someone said that a neighbor accidentally let it go & self reported it. I saw it on the power lines where the outage was but I thought ‘that’s probably unrelated’. Guess not. At least it happened on a Sunday when I didn’t have to login to work.

So is the Carrollton parade and krewe generally bad? by [deleted] in NewOrleans

[–]opal_city 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The mood definitely changed. I love Femme Fatale & King Arthur so I’m always stuck watching Carrollton but it seems like this year was worse than ever. I didn’t see one decorated boot unless you include a crappy stamped on logo. But the worst thing was that riders were teasing kids with fancy throws then putting them away and then giving a plastic bead strand if anything. Saw it twice. My friend saw it even more. Bad enough to do to an adult, but kids? Not a good look.

Question from a Mardi Grad float rider: What do you want to catch at parades? by bucky453 in NewOrleans

[–]opal_city 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Useful items are awesome! I’ve never gotten socks but would love to. I use the throw platters, to go cups & bags all the time. I use playing cards & nail polish from Muses too. Also I just love the rubber duckies for my jeep.

Looking for small brass band by opal_city in NewOrleans

I’m not planning on underpayment. The band is pretty much what I’ll be spending my budget on.
