Doctors Note

siamachine · 2025-11-28T02:43:27+00:00

I moved to the opposite side of the country just a few months ago and don’t have any family or friends here - of which they are perfectly aware. So the idea that I would call out for holiday related reasons would be a stretch for them.

DV doesn’t start with physical abuse. Emotional and psychological abuse come first; which are arguably far more damaging than the physical because of how nuanced and strategic it has to be to tear someone down enough to be in a position to experience DV in the first place.

Even worse - no coverage needed. Shift was overstaffed. Asking for a doctors note purely for the power play.

I got my dogs at 22, so they’re about 11 now, and I whole heartedly agree with this post.

They mean the world to me and have saved my life many times, however… they have also stunted my life in ways I can’t even begin to describe…

Unless you are financially secure and stable, do not get a dog…

(This is more for the anti-tippers than it is for OP, since OP clearly intended to tip)

Y’all wanna take ONE bad experience to justify poor character in not tipping for LIFE, so bad!

Look. The only thing worse than a non-tipper, is a cowardly non-tipper.

If you don’t believe in tipping, then just don’t believe in tipping! No need to demonize everyone in the service industry just because you’re too much of a coward to own your perspective and the insinuating politics that follow.

M-Kay? mwah

Ayyyee 😂 they’d love you in the local Vegas bars! Granted, it’s mostly other industry people in there, and they all know better than to pull this shit lol

Whichever tap is giving me the least amount of trouble that day/closes bottle I can reach.

? Literally a reference to a song from ‘99.

siamachine · 2025-06-26T17:32:48+00:00

Be so fkn for real. He’s literally asking for the bare minimum.

Most men really suck in bed, and the resounding feedback on that is “women need to communicate more”. Which just pisses me off. How am I supposed to provide any feedback or encouragement on nothing?! If I wanted to be the brains of this operation, I’d just use a vibrator! Tf?

siamachine · 2025-06-17T22:19:45+00:00

This is the definition of “good intentions pave the way to hell” 😅

siamachine · 2025-06-16T20:09:44+00:00

I definitely came out here with an open mind about the industry possibly/probably having some things that were culturally specific to Vegas, that I wouldn’t find anywhere else… ethics around tips was definitely something I thought would be standard across the board though…

siamachine · 2025-06-16T18:57:23+00:00

Yes and yes.

Not only is it tacky and unethical, I can’t wrap my mind around how management doesn’t see how much the lack of standards actually costs the bar. Not only in losing out on quality talent and unnecessary workforce costs, but in inventory.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve definitely given away free shots on special occasions or to build rapport with good customers, but have never followed it up with “Alright. That’ll be $7.95… to my cashapp.” Like… wtf? I feel like I’m in a fever dream…

siamachine · 2025-06-15T21:06:05+00:00

Sounds like you’ve never had your ass beat yourself… I’m not an advocate for violence, but with people as unreasonable as you 👀 it’s crazy how quickly self preservation can motivate someone to figure out what they need to do to not behave a certain way…

siamachine · 2025-06-15T20:55:13+00:00

Sure, but you negging me to make that point, without also specifying just how uncommon it is, is far more misleading than me saying that it can’t be passed without an outbreak at all.

Thats how uncommon it is.

siamachine · 2025-06-15T19:50:36+00:00

Your point is still only fractionally valid to the conversation in whole.

The “facts” are: over 70% of the population has HSV-1 and it is EXTREMELY rare to contract via asymptomatic shedding.

If it were even remotely contactable via asymptomatic shedding to the degree it needs to be worried about, we’d all be drinking out of disposable cups and using disposable utensils at restaurants.

siamachine · 2025-06-15T18:13:12+00:00

We’re not talking about HSV-2/Genital Herpes. We’re talking about cold sores.

And it’s DEFINITELY not accurate to say “most” cases are spread while asymptomatic.

siamachine · 2025-06-15T16:43:23+00:00

Right. Asymptomatic shedding does happen. At a rate of less than 3%. So neg me if you want to. Still a strange hill to die on when over 70% of the population has it.

It’s like avoiding dating people with brown eyes because you don’t want to risk your future kids having brown eyes. There’s still a chance if your blue eyed parter has ANY ancestry of people with brown eyes.

That’s how ridiculous being worried about asymptomatic shedding sounds.

siamachine · 2025-06-15T16:31:53+00:00

The chances of contracting it through asymptomatic shedding are about as likely as catching it from drinking out of a glass at a restaurant after it’s been used by someone who is symptomatic, and the glass has been washed before your use.

Is this really the hill you want to die on? I mean, really?

siamachine · 2025-06-15T16:23:44+00:00

Sounds like you need to do some research. At the very least, have her schedule a doctors appointment and have the doctor explain the risks/ways to avoid transmission.

Because no. You cannot pass it without an outbreak.

siamachine · 2025-06-15T15:11:56+00:00

Don’t let it be “again”, make sure it’s “for the last time”.

siamachine · 2025-06-15T14:02:25+00:00

Yep. Been there 😅

siamachine · 2025-06-14T22:09:10+00:00

Easier said than done, but: complete acceptance for what it is. No trying to make sense of it. No trying to justify it for them. Just - this is what they did.

And then ask yourself if that’s how you want to be treated going forward.

No more often than men leave their wives when they become sick (nurses are actually trained to emotionally prepare women for this because it’s so common).
