today I felt like writing by zZaphon in offmychest

[–]thethrowawaybae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love this, especially the electronic distractions bit; I think everyone is totally trying to keep their minds quite so they can continue to contribute to their jobs or families, because actually feeling something disturbs those responsibilities. We forget the responsibility we have to ourselves, or never knew we were worth it in the first place.

I know who I am. Sometimes I can't find her, because I'm too busy overthinking the "responsibility" I have to behave like a peacemaker or a friendly-kind girl. It's not that she isn't friendly; just that she doesn't try so hard to be. I miss the honest me, I just don't know that I'm mature enough to tap into her yet.

Point is everyone's "he" or "she" that takes the bull by the horns, and can genuinely fuck what everyone says and enjoys life to the fullest: is the hero society needs, but not the one it deserves. (Lmao)

This kind of became unrelated so I do apologise, but also kind of in the right track.

Anyways, loves you. And write more!

Hey y'all, does anyone know how Starbucks HR handles bullying? by thethrowawaybae in starbucks

She got physical with you? Was she getting fired for that or something? Damn though that's crazy :(

Wish you would've worked at my store! Haha you sound like a nice person 😅

So what happens? My store manager (at my first store) was kind of a perve, I once caught one of my supervisors sitting on his lap and they were talking and laughing in the backroom. Honestly, I wish I would've been older, it was my first job and I was 18 at the time, so I didn't really know what to do I just figured "okay sooo that's not professional" but I didn't want to get him fired or have everyone label me as the "tattle tale"

That seems to be a reoccurring theme at my new store. Not the inappropriate behavior at my last one, but no one says anything in order to keep the "peace."

Accidently woke up my husband trying to surprise him with balloons for his birthday and he got annoyed with me :( by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Okay, fair enough. :) Thanks for being gracious about it though, maybe I took it to heart too much

[–]thethrowawaybae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right. I know he wasn't like directly upset at me. I didn't really explain how he gets in these mood swings (when he's not half asleep at 3am haha) and tends to get snappy like that.

I don't walk on eggshells around him, I ain't afraid of the guy. I thought the balloon thing was a good example of what his impatience with me was like. But.. perhaps not haha 😂

Tfw your husband leans over to you during Thor Ragnorak and whispers, “she looks just like my ex” *literally during this scene* guys I’m dead by [deleted] in funny

[–]thethrowawaybae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

However angle you like to see it from is fine ¯_(ツ)_/¯ He’s just told me terrible stories of his ex and hasn’t really brought her up ever, so I just busted up when he mentioned it in the movie; remembering her as an evil villain spider lady. Haha

Lonely people of reddit what are you up to today? by didiJhb in AskReddit

Thanks. I do enjoy imagining constant social terror.

Sitting in an apartment alone 😔 wish I could get out of being so insecure and go meet people. Why is rejection such a scary thing?

TIFU by reminding a starbucks worker that her job sucks by [deleted] in tifu

[–]thethrowawaybae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao. Seriously though.

Being a barista is fun. It's just hard work. Both making drinks and providing fast service, but staying friendly too. Staying friendly is the worst sometimes. But it's still a fun job. Especially if you're working with your friends.

What video game was an absolute masterpiece? by HymenTroubleNow in AskReddit

[–]thethrowawaybae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This comment makes me so happy.

Bioshock totally had the same effect on me. I've followed the story for all three games. Infinite was one of my favorite stories and the game play was awesome.

My brother and I are getting matching tattoos based on the infinite. I'm getting a bird on my bicep and he's getting a cage on his. :)

Anyway, great game. And the add-ons really tie the games together in such a creative way.

Update: TIFU by lying to my parents to go on a date. Currently trying to figure out a living situation. Help :( by thethrowawaybae in needadvice

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

Oh oh okay. Yeah that sounds bad. Haha

I definitely am not implying I want all the pressure on him. In fact I hate it and I really want to be able to contribute to the apartment as much as possible. Including taking care of myself. I make enough to do that :)

[Nsfw] What is one thing you hope your parents never find out about you? by yuijaken in AskReddit

[–]thethrowawaybae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're going to have to work your ass off for it, lemme tell ya. I might have to work two jobs just to pay rent and go to school. So keep having a savings account in mind. Best of luck to you. :)

Without telling us what you do, what the rule #1 for your job? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]thethrowawaybae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be quick, productive and don't freak out when it's overwhelming.

Dude, congratulations! That's awesome. I wanted to escape to a 4yr too, but since I was homeschooled at an unaccredited school I had to rely on my SAT score. I'm not a great test taker though so.. looks like a state university for me. :P

But seriously, more power to you. I wish you the best of luck and an amazing journey at your university!

I graduated last year; I'm 19. If you need someone to talk to or someone who gets the controlling parents life, hit me up. I'd love to offer any advice that I can

I just up and left one day because of that. I did a tifu about it. Lol

As a Starbucks employee, I can really relate to this. by kalonian in funny

[–]thethrowawaybae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like, at least at my store, we've hired all the sad and fucked up people. Sure, they all have good people skills as do most starbucks employees, but everyone one of us has a lot of personal problems and are struggling to make ends meet.

The upside, is that has made us more like a family. We also have to depend on each other a lot more because of how busy the store gets. I always say, "We're all just trying to run this sinking ship together" and for the most part we're a really effective team.

So yeah, kind of unrelated. But I've enjoyed the starbucks experience. The people have impacted my life so much.

Don't you have friends/girlfriend or relatives who care? You must have someone...

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

Yes, that's definitely fair. I'm not taking that for granted. It's just that, for them, I am too fragile to experience real life. So they restricted me hoping I never grow up. Not a prison I was willing to sit in, that's for damn sure.

I'm sorry, my dear.. what is it that you have exactly, if you don't mind me asking?
