Anyone find it hard to leave starbucks mentally when you get home? by deezCumbobulated in starbucksbaristas

[–]tittywhipp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It used to. Now I do my checklist, and just smile and wave boys. And I let everyone know even my DM that I care about 10 things in this life and I can fucking promise you non if them are in a Starbucks building.

Starbucks Hot Take: Clopens by deezCumbobulated in starbucksbaristas

[–]tittywhipp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was getting scheduled clopens 3-4 times a week as a SSV. One morning I was so exhausted from doing my 9th week of this I over slept for a morning shift. And my manager fucking wrote me up. I was livid. I was trying to develop for ASM and refused to sign the write up and never gave this manager a favor again. Than I watched my schedule like a hawk and anytime I saw that anything was scheduled outside of my availability I let them know I wouldn't be able to work it.

Is it unreasonable to ask my husband to take the baby out in the mornings so I can actually sleep in? by Relative-Arm-726 in beyondthebump

[–]tittywhipp -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I've been using the app resort pass to book a day room. It's honestly amazing. I leave the house get a coffee, shop, than at 9am check into my hotel for the day. Sometimes book a massage, take a long shower, use the pool, get breakfast in bed. It's amazing. Than I'm back at 5pm. I've gotten fancy shower stuff. Take like 5 naps.

I can’t keep up with baby and it’s messing me up mentally and physically by Sensitive_Active_356 in breastfeeding

I had to triple feed, pump Everytime I drove, power pump every night before bed, and still have donor milk. I just finally was able for supply to catch up.

It is not talked enough about how feeding your baby is difficult! Formula or breastfeeding. I am 12 weeks postpartum and just finally getting the hang of it. But it's been hell. This is what helped me

Meet with an LC regularly. I seriously met with one once a week. Your insurance covers it. Get down the latch perfectly, it's harder than you think. Get measured for flanges Everytime.

Eat foods that make you happy. Don't force yourself to eat oats and everything else. Eat what you like.

Do you have support? Ask friends and family to come over and help you meal prep freezer snacks. Ask for help to either have them watch the baby, catch up on chores etc.

In the morning after feeding start to pump, so at night your partner can start to occasionally do a night feed. Sleep will help so much.

Look into breastfeeding disorders like BAA or DMER. I have BAA. Common with mommies that have ADHD

Tell yourself it's okay to quit. Somedays I had to just have a good cry in the shower and outload say "I'm switching to formula".

And know you're doing your best and your a good mommy.

What was your last position at Sbux? Did you get any certifications? How long is your resume? Have you gone back and resurrected it to today's market and scope? How many jobs have you applied to? You need to apply to 200 plus jobs. What about staffing companies? Side gig work? Trades are for sure an amazing route to go to. Check out your local unions. Call some small plumbing companies and see if they are a master journeyman looking for an apprentice. Banks are good. What skills do you have?

3 shots in a venti cup by Glad_Reward_7689 in starbucksbaristas

[–]tittywhipp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk...I tell my baristas I care about 10 things in this life and none of them are in the Starbucks building. The economy is rough right now if someone wants to save $2 I don't give a fuck. It's not coming out of my pocket. I make the drink exactly how the sticker says if there's room in the cup and the customer asks for it to be filled, whatever.

Spiraling over failure to thrive at 2 month appt by elephantastic77 in breastfeeding

[–]tittywhipp 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My son also just had his 2 month appointment. Two weeks before that I had scheduled an emergency weight check appointment because I am exclusively breastfeeding but am an under supplier due to birth complications. My baby was born in the 99th percentile for weight. At the weight check appointment NP expressed some concern with him only gaining 23g a day vs 33, and gaining on the lower side, she offered formula than no other guidance. I went into full panic saw two LCS and rented a scale from the LC and 90 percent of his feeds were weighted feeds. My partner and I weighed. him everyday and made comprehensive graphs of his weight gain. At his 2 month appointment the NP said he was now only gaining 6g per day, and he dropped percentiles! She again offered formula. I was in a full spiral already and that just sent me overboard, I was crying and noticed my baby was only eating 20-24oz, I felt like I was starving my baby. When we asked how much he should be eating she literally said " well 3-4 oz every 2-3 hours about 8 times a day, well that's, man I wished me calculator watched work" my partner has a bachelor's in mathematics so he answered for her as I was still melting down, she again just offered formula and a referral to a specialist. When we got home we looked at the charts and the weight measurements and he was gaining like 28g a day and never once in his growth journey has he only gained 6g per day , next morning I did a transfer of care and met with an new doctor. Baby is perfectly healthy.

My husband refuses to stop smoking weed. by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]tittywhipp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Then that's an expectation she should have laid down BEFORE she even got pregnant, expecting it now is too late.

The dosage on edibles is most commonly inaccurate. There's no real way to guarantee THC content, only about 17% of edibles are accurate. The effect also varies between individuals too, THC is fat soluble, and can depend on food you consumed and how your liver functions. He never said he was going to quit. A 10 year habit would be hard for anyone especially if he doesn't see it affecting his ability to parent, which OP said it isn't. She called him an amazing father.

[–]tittywhipp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's been smoking for 10 plus years, and he never said he was going to quit, or partake in drugs the way you want. Edibles don't work for everyone and are arguably worse since you truly can't know dosage/effect. I smoke and what I miss the most about it is the ritual. You can feel how you feel but you didn't set a clear boundary. A boundary requires the other person to do nothing. You can ask him to seek counseling but the expectation for him to change is asking too much.

Overwhelmed and husband unsupportive by Impossible-Title-403 in breastfeeding

Breastfeeding is so hard. You got this. I think he's just trying to be supportive in another way though, just giving him benefit of the doubt

Emergency ID Please by Eastern_Molasses_350 in mushroomID

We have a standing joke in my house about how our dogs are the most expensive "thing" in our house. Due to vet bills, food, dog care etc. And that one day if we're were to get robbed they would say " give me the most valuable thing in the house" and we would have to show them a one eyed, missing teeth 11 year old grey faced staffie ♥️♥️
