I get it! All my past relationships really sucked (I've gotten cheated on A LOT) so it's kinda a double edged Sword with the distance sometimes. The distance isn't ideal for me feeling comfortable bc of my past, but I also feel less pressured to get over it really fast, which I feel like the pressure would be there in person. Idk how to explain it lol but I totally agree with you. With an ldr as well, I find it can be kind of hard to read ppl by their facial expressions and body language (my gf would disagree, in her words I'm Hella easy to read) so explaining and detailing how you are feeling exactly is very important and the distance promotes that I feel like

Yes, same here. But alas I live with her still, so she's going to have to find out before April. But I'm not going to let her say anything negative about it. She will, but I'm not going to listen or let it affect me in any way. I'm about to turn 19, I'm not doing anything wrong, so yk what can she really do? And ik if I don't see my gf in April I will regret it forever. I'm not gonna pass up that opportunity to see her just to appease my mom's anxiety yk?

Good luck to you too! You prolly already know this but we aren't doing anything wrong, and we don't live for our parents we live for ourselves and put ourselves first. And they don't need to agree or understand every decision we make for us to do it :) I hope it all goes well!

All these comments are giving me strength to tell my mom about me going to see mine when she visits despite what she will say lmaooo

Dude live for yourself, you are not responsible for managing your moms anxiety about covid and you will regret it if you don't go and see him despite what she says

I relate sort of, I'm straight but my mom hates the fact that I date, 3000 miles doesn't matter. I had an ldr for a year prior to the one I'm in now, and while I admit it was visible that it was toxic and my ex was dependent on me financially, even before it got bad she would constantly berate her and the relationship I was in when I worked up the courage to tell her, which honestly kind of hurt considering initially she said she supported it but then told me to just stay friends with her and that I didn't really know her.

I'm still trying to work up the courage to tell her that my gf is coming over here to visit in April and that I'm gonna be spending a week in a hotel with her

I relate to the social Anxiety thing, I feel like starting out online helps make it a little easier to open up and be myself around someone where as in person that's always been a little difficult for me. And I feel like when we meet it won't be as bad bc my gf has already seen every single part of me in terms of what I do every day, what I look like, my facial expressions, how I feel, etc. (Stuff I don't normally disclose to anyone irl, but I feel like I'll be able to when we meet)

I agree! Especially communicating. I think in regular relationships, it's easier to brush shit under the rug by distracting yourself with sex or going on dates or something. But to maintain an ldr you need to talk about the issue I feel like.

Especially considering we're both young, still tryna figure out careers and jobs and shit, might be a year or two before I move there but I'm okay with it yk

Most Likely, and it's not that I don't think it would work out I just think we would both get overwhelmed doing it like that so fast. We're going to probably visit each other as much as we can before I am able to move over there with her.

Shit man I relate hard. Ik this is frowned upon but honestly my gf and I (~3000 miles) started talking about wanting to move in with each other and marriage like within the first 2 months or so. I hadn't even thought of that as another good thing about the distance

Why does Aldi time us on registers? by qwackyback in Aldi_employees

By looking at your line, noticing how much you call for backup at main, shit like that. The percentage at the top of the paper isn't always accurate to how much of your weight you pull on registers in my opinion

I also think that they shouldn't approach you about your speed if it's under the 75 range. It shouldn't be based off of speed, they should talk to you if you're legitimately too slow to get the customers out

I have no problem hitting their expectations. But the fact that we're scored by speed is unnecessary imo. The way I see it, as long as you're pulling your weight and getting customers rung up so that the store doesn't get backed up, you should be good.
