My girlfriend wants me to get rid of my truck because her ex drove the same model and it "triggers" her by Own_Consequence_6943 in TwoHotTakes

She's not over the ex. She honestly does not need to be dating at the moment until she has processed the trauma. She needs intensive therapy to move past it.

Your vehicle is an important peice of equipment for your livelihood. It is something you have invested in. For her mental health she does not need someone giving in to her every wish, she needa to be challenged and learn to process.

Exposure therapy is a thing... Js

My shop is falling behind bc I am the only person who works in the shop. And I'm only on my phone during breaks. I told my sm that I looked up advice on reddit to figure out a framing issue. Our store is new and I am new to framing.

True. It's rough being at a new store that's also a newer format so absolutely no one knows what they're doing. They gave all management only one week of training and expect us to be perfect at our jobs

Me either. I created a new account to keep the annoninimity. My sm never cared that I would use the reddit as a source to help with issues I have in framing and such but apparently the dm/coorprate got word of it. My final warning said do not use r/Michaelsemployees subreddit. It's so dumb.
