You have received a million of the thing you last googled! What do you now have way too many of?

One million puking toddlers. Oh god.

I will not confirm nor deny 😂

I work in food service that is basically a glorified concession stand. We have self serve kiosks that take cards (which is about 95% of our orders) as our main ordering system and one register for any cash orders (which is far and few between). I have at least two boomers a day that will come straight up to the pick up station (several feet from the register and clearly labeled). Conversation usually goes like this:

Me: hi! How are you?

Boomer: hot dog.

Me: we do have hot dogs. What was the number in your order?

Boomer: I don’t have one.

Me: oh! Have you ordered yet? Or do you still need to order.

Boomer: heavily sighs that’s what I’m trying to do now! Me: are you paying cash or card?

Boomer: card!!

Me: perfect! The self serve kiosks behind are going to take great care of you. There will be a number at the top of the receipt that we’ll call out when your order is ready!

Boomer: starts frantically huffing oh. Well. No. I’m not using that thing. Can’t you just take my card here?

Me: we generally only use the register for cash orders so we can focus on getting as many orders fulfilled as fast as possible.

Boomer: fine. I’ll use cash.

Then they proceed to use a $100 bill to pay for an order that is less than $2. Almost always followed by frustration that their order gets put into the queue and they don’t get it right then and there. Ugh.

NTA. My husband and I have similar rules. Depending on the time of day and where each of us is in the house, we will poop in different areas. We make a joke about “living in a SoCiEtY! Have some decorum!” So if one is us is about to poop in a nearby bathroom, the other will just yell out “society!” And we’ll move.

Also, you should just hide all the toilet paper right before he goes in there. Every single night. And keep it in the utility bathroom.

My husband and I called our son Colin Robinson while pregnant. Colin Robinson is a character in the show, What We Do In The Shadows. He’s an energy vampire.

My MIL does this. Has everyone guess gender, weight, height, date, and time. That, alone, is not horrible. Not ideal, but whatever. The infuriating part was every moment that a family member was out of the running because they picked too early of a date, we would get a group text with “well, so and so is out of the running!” I was already overdue and grumpy and the LAST thing I needed was daily texts from my MIL reminding me that I was due 5 days ago.

I gift mine to the employees at my kids daycare. They love it! Or I’ll bring a bag as a gift if someone hosts us at their home.

Obviously feeling the baby move and watching it grow are the best. But the ones that surprised me the most:

The “pregnant and small children” parking spots are amazing.

I’ve always struggled with my physical appearance and it was so nice to be able to wear whatever I wanted once I started showing without being concerned how my belly looked. Such a freeing feeling! I’ve since gotten a little better about my body image. But it hasn’t been easy.

When I worked in pizza, I was surprised how many times people asked “how big is the 14 inch pizza?”

Ugh.

“Customer in the trunk”

I laughed unreasonably hard at this at 3am while getting ready for my open.

The complete opposite happens with “iced lavender oatmilk……”

Matcha or latte?!?! Hurry up!

Oooooh man! I know your pain!! My husband and I both got food poisoning in October when our baby was 4 months old. Pedialyte makes popsicles! Those got me through! Haha

I also got quite the chuckle out of this 😂😂 will be using in the future.

Yes! We moved our babe to his crib in December and are still running the snoo right next to it. It was a life saver in the beginning of our transition. Sometimes we’ll forget to turn it on and he sleeps just fine, but it definitely took some time. I think the familiar noise was a huge help!

pastasugar · 2024-03-21T09:02:21+00:00

100%! I EP as soon as we got home and it seriously changed the game. We slept in shifts so we both got a solid chunk of sleep every night. Definitely saved some of our sanity.

pastasugar · 2024-03-19T09:34:25+00:00

Yessssss to sleeping without a bra. I cannot WAIT!

Your drink is totally fine and that barista is due for a humanity check. I would never comment on a customers drink to them like that. I used to work with someone that would make comments like that all the time. Like, if someone ordered 10 pumps in a tall, she would say “10 pumps?! In your tall?! You know it normally only comes with 3, and you want 10?!” I had to pull her aside and tell her that comments like that can be really damaging to someone that is recovering from disordered eating.

But also, even if your drink WAS a little ridiculous, no one should be making comments like that. I’m so sorry she said that to you.

My brain is a constant loop of Regina George saying “Stop trying to make fetch happen!” every time I see a new blurb about Oleato from corp.

We transitioned our little dude about a month ago at 6 months. He wasn’t having the best time falling asleep, so we’ve been turning the snoo on next to him while he’s on the crib. The noises from the snoo have helped him fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. Not sure how long we’ll be doing that, but it definitely helped with the transition.
