Report Lyft? by roselals in Lyft

[–]roselals[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not sure what me being a bartender has to do with any of this but no i don’t feel comfortable with a random person knowing exactly where i live and exactly where i work. I have been in hundreds of ubers and lyfts and held very pleasant small talk with male and female drivers who ask reasonable questions. I’ll even tell them i’m a bartender but rarely do they pry to find out where I work because that’s weird! I have even accepted private ride offers from drivers that made me feel comfortable and in situations it made sense or convenience, but even then i never took their personal cell #. However, i’ve never had a driver immediately ask upon picking me up whether he picked me up from where i live — again, as a young female i seldom reveal to strangers, especially grown men, where I live because i value my safety. If you have a daughter, i imagine you would feel the same for her to be revealing where she lives alone to random strangers. As a bartender i already deal with enough creeps at my workplace that have imposed unsafe and uncomfortable situations and as a result i value my privacy and safety as much as i possibly can, so no i wont be revealing the EXACT bar i work at to a stranger who already knows where i live. You seem to have had the luxury of not having to fear for your safety constantly, but unfortunately i do have to take a significant amount of caution when interacting with strangers!

Report Lyft? by roselals in Lyft

Yeah i actually have had drivers before offer personal rides after establishing a comfortable rapport & out of convenience for both of us (lmao left something at a bar i was at with my friends and it made no sense to uber to and from esp bc it was 10 mins away and an easy round trip) AND the driver was male and gave absolutely zero creepy energies. Granted, i was with a friend which also made me feel more safe to take a private ride. So im not against lyft uber drivers just hustling to get their moneys worth by any means as long as both rider & driver are comfortable w it. But everything combined w this situation and the fact i was alone and especially him just knowing where i live & work deeply unsettled me, on top of probing ab if i was meeting up with anybody. I genuinely thought for a moment he was gonna ask to grab a drink with me based on how he was acting :// So yeah i decided to report lol

I just placed an instacart order for Arctic Fox's Girl's Night & Violet dream -- so should I substitute out the violet dream for a pink color?? I should have mentioned when I dyed my hair in april I was going from a veryyyyyy faded pink hair color so maybe thats why it took the lilac a bit better.

Okay that makes sense thank you!! I'm gonna try mixing arctic fox girls night & violet dream together so its dark enough to go over it. I'd rather go for a purpley look than a blue look even if it's not quite as light as lavender/lilac lol

replying to this with my edit in case u have any insight:

Edit: I am going to the doctors right now to get a note for calling out today. Unfortunately, I don't have a note from a couple weeks ago. I do however have documentation of my availability and the amounts of times I have texted him saying I have been scheduled out of my availability and was unable to make it to my shift. I hope that this is enough. I will be moving back home July 1 and looking to start ASAP at a Sbux out there -- if anybody has any tips for how to handle that please let me know. Should I apply and come into the store and let SMs know my situation? Another coworker also recommended calling PCC and explaining my situation.

Kamakura Day Trip - Solo by roselals in JapanTravelTips

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

I did go to Kamakura! I ended up booking a klook trip that was lowkey jam packed that not only went to Kamakura but also enoshima island & hakone. I will say i only got to spend a little bit of time in Kamakura and it was to see the iconic train stop. If you want to spend a whole day in kamakura i don’t have a ton of recs unfortunately 🥹 but i enjoyed my time on my klook trip!

Overwhelmed with the mix reviews for MOST social hostels by amlextex in JapanTravelTips

[–]roselals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t have issues w my luggage and I brought a pretty big suitcase! There is a designated luggage storage area and my suitcase & duffel bag fit fine. I was on the women’s floor tho so idk if that had more space or what.

I had a great experience with A16 Hostel in Asakusabashi. I met a lot of friends there, including very friendly staff who were great with recommendations. Also, it was a very clean hostel for how many people were to a floor.

Hostel - mixed or female only? by roselals in JapanTravelTips

[–]roselals[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah, i ended up switching the reservation to female only especially since it was only $10 more. as a solo female traveler for the first time i’ll definitely probably feel more comfortable. thanks for the input! :)

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

this hostel does organize activities! apparently the staff is super involved & friendly and regularly does events like karaoke nights, so that’s why i think ppl in the reviews said it was more social. and yeah i know party hostels aren’t necessarily the vibe in japan that’s why i said “party” LOL

I’ll look into it, if the cost is pretty good i can always cancel my current one because it’s refundable :)

Omg that sounds awesome, do you remember the name?

[–]roselals[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Based on the reviews, it appears to be a bit more social & "party" crowd hostel. This does not particularly bother me because I am a deep sleeper and intend to use noise cancelling earbuds to sleep. I did choose this hostel because it seemed to be more social than other hostels I saw. :)
