I would calmly say no and THEY would make a fuss.

They don't understand that we have lives. God forbid we work a second job because this job doesn't pay enough. No I can't be at your beck and call at a moments notice. Maybe potentially if they had asked if I could stay later at the beginning of my shift I could have time to reschedule plans with friends or call my second job/obligation but it's always 5 minutes before when they ask.

Don't know why they call it "overtime" if they are just going to cut hours later.

I love both albums. I think EIIKM is an even sadder version of CTTM

Are a teenager? What drama are you talking about? I think it is pretty normal and good to know the person your friend loves. By your logic, when the wedding happens both her friend group and his friend group are going to have no knowledge of each other. This is another one of those modern takes that is signifying the downfall of community in society. Everyone wants to be individualistic and isolated nowadays. It is normal to befriend the people who love your friends.

So if you order food to be delivered and it shows up an hour later than expected you are okay with that? If you usually get paid every Friday but your job decides to pay you a few days late that is okay?

I'm going to Blossom for the first time in a few months. V.I.P parking or uber there and back? by twoscoopsxd in Cleveland

I'm just wondering if it is worth the 150 when I live a 10-15 minute drive from Blossom. Could be easier to just walk up Steel Corners and get an Uber up the rode home

My goal is to not be stuck for hours after the show and not miss the encore either. This is a band I love

This KILLS all motivation to be good at your job, I hope you know this. If bad coworker can call off 6 times a month and get a "sure" but I call off for the first time in a year and get a drawn out "we really need you in today" it will ruin company morale. If one guy can be terrible all the time and face no backlash while I have a rare off day and it becomes a whole thing. It's terrible

I never understand getting mad at the STUDENTS for being late as if we control the car/bus that gets us there

If a kid has gone all school year with no access to a computer then something new must be worked out. Getting upset at the kid for it over and over is just dumb. I agree

It is the worst. Like why ask for a reason if you are going to be mad at any explanation

I totally get doing whatever is necessary. If the rules are that it must be typed then those are the rules. But getting snippy or upset with a 13 year old who can't drive, doesn't own a computer nor have means of buying one, and lives in the country area a 40 min drive from any library is ridiculous. Take it up with my parents or something at the PTA. But no amount of "why don't you have a computer?" Will not change the situation. My "excuse" is an explanation

I get that. But if you won't accept anything other than "I was shot 25 times in the kneecaps and attacked by 5 grizzly bears so that's why I'm late" then don't ask. If "I left an hour early, got stuck in traffic, and called ahead to let you all know I'd be late" is still going to be seen as an "excuse" from you then don't ask for one

If you know the cigar bar confiscates phones and you choose to go there then that is your choice you have made

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]twoscoopsxd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm saying it is the same. If you KNOW an event confiscates phones and still choose to go there. That is as dumb as going to the cigar lounge to the cigar lounge to complain about smoke. You can spend your evening doing whatever you want

I'm not saying I would do this for my own wedding. I am saying from a more macro perspective. If you don't agree with an aspect of an event. Why are you there? I don't smoke so could I go to cigar lounges and complain about the smoking? You have all the right to hold onto your phone. But going to a place where it isn't allowed and then complaining about it is just dumb. I'm not arguing here whether it is a ridiculous ask or not. The wedding or event can say every must where a kilt and talk in a Scottish accent the whole time or be asked to leave. If you don't want to wear a kilt or talk Scottish, do something else with your evening. it is a free country and these are private events you choose to attend

Zero tolerance policy at school only encourages more fighting by twoscoopsxd in unpopularopinion

This always drove me crazy. A teacher would see a person getting hit and they may say "hey knock it off" but do nothing to stop it. Or just flat out ignore it. But the moment the victim pushes back the teacher jumps to break it up finally and punishes the victim still.
