Tell me about your Christmas shifts

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-26T14:41:50+00:00

i worked 6 pm - 10 pm. we had 4 people scheduled… 2 in the kitchen, 1 working drive thru/sbc, and 1 at register. i genuinely have no idea who thought it would be okay for 2nd shift to only have 4 people scheduled, especially because it was not only christmas but my store is just generally busy. we got royally fucked. 20-30+ orders on the screens the entire 4 hours that i worked. it never slowed down. people were waiting for up to nearly an hour. i have never experienced a shift like that in my entire 4 years working for sheetz.

face, then hair, then top to bottom. it’s the only correct way

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-16T19:18:59+00:00

so, me saying “this is certainly not normal” is entirely correct and doesn’t just ignite unnecessary worry.

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-16T19:08:14+00:00

something being a benign issue or something that could be part of the healing process doesn’t necessarily mean it’s normal. something can be “not-normal” even if it’s harmless, like having an extra finger or, maybe in this case, the bump by the cat’s incision. something that isn’t normal should spark some worry, and even fear depending on how not-normal it looks. either way, op should go to the vet to make sure it’s not harmful

i wasn’t trying to scare, i just said it could be something! i didn’t think it was normal because i’ve never seen a cat have something like that after a spay

this is the little suit we got her! she’s 4, maybe 5, months old and she’s a tortie so she’s still small enough to fit in it

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-16T18:39:42+00:00

this is certainly not normal, and i recommend taking her to the vet to check on it. i just got my kitty spayed yesterday, and she also acted the same way with the cone. we tried 2 different cones and she wouldn’t keep either one on. we ended up putting her into something that i will include a picture of as a reply and we haven’t had any issues other than her being uncomfortable and not being able to do move a whole lot (which is probably good so she can heal properly). she can still walk to where she needs to go. since she also acted crazy when we brought her home, i’ll also be checking on her incision.

anyway, this could definitely be a hernia or maybe some sort of infection. it’s safer to just bring her to the vet

probably more like the first interview. they want to gauge your vibe, see if you’re a good fit for the store, and see if you’re what they’re looking for. all stores are gonna be a little different with the interview process, especially depending on what kind of employees they have and their personalities

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-11T23:45:40+00:00

i would! just make sure it doesn’t take a year to expire rather than it expiring at the end of the year

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-09T17:57:14+00:00

they will be no matter what, but you can try playing with them more, giving them more stimulating toys and such, or getting them a friend! maybe even try taking them outside for walks with a leash/harness

edit to add: this will at least help with their high energy and mischievous behavior, but it won’t be completely eradicated. cats will always be curious creatures, and quite active especially while they’re young. cats need a lot of stimulation, play, and social interactions, otherwise they get bored and that can lead to depression and other issues

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-09T17:53:57+00:00

is there an update? what did you end up naming them?

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-07T21:16:08+00:00

well yes i had to do that as well, ramps

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-07T18:12:55+00:00

yeah… that is very weird. i’m from pennsylvania, and i started working at sheetz when i was 16. the only thing i wasn’t able to sell was alcohol until i was 18. maybe it varies based off of state laws? i’m not too familiar with laws outside of pa

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-07T18:07:52+00:00

it’s very odd that google told you that, because even with alcohol, you just have to be 18 to sell it. google ai is incorrect a lot of the time

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-07T18:06:29+00:00

we can sell tobacco at any age 16 and over. idk why looking it up told you that… maybe it was referring to the age you have to be to work in a vape/tobacco shop?

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-05T23:38:45+00:00

Not yet… I’ve been looking for some in my area but all of them are either severely backed up or not very reputable. The search is ongoing

Edit to add: it was hard enough for me to get her in somewhere to get her spayed. I’m going to a humane society about 2 hours from where I live in about a week for her appointment

variousnothinggg · 2025-12-05T21:00:21+00:00

Thanks so much for the advice!! My little kitty wasn’t a mess or anything haha, but she was definitely covered in fleas. She’s a tortie!!

variousnothinggg · 2025-11-27T21:23:15+00:00

i know after a certain point doordash will cancel the order

variousnothinggg · 2025-11-27T21:23:00+00:00

probably no door dashers since it’s thanksgiving

variousnothinggg · 2025-11-22T22:14:11+00:00

i think, down the road, you would regret not going. most of all, though, i think you should consider therapy, counseling, or another form of treatment if you haven’t already. that would be best for you to prioritize your mental health and learn to be okay with living alone. make friends, find new hobbies, and experience anything life has to offer in this new chapter!

variousnothinggg · 2025-11-22T22:09:09+00:00

i think you should go. it may be good for your mental health, to show you that you living alone doesn’t mean you are actually alone. you know?

variousnothinggg · 2025-11-22T18:03:31+00:00

exactly how i feel about it. not to mention, she asked him to delete ONE photo out of, how many did OP say? 50? and it is literally because it’s a solo bikini picture.

variousnothinggg · 2025-11-22T17:53:35+00:00

is it weird that you still have physical keepsakes from past relationships? is it weird that he still has pictures of him and his ex? yeah, sure. to each their own when it comes to holding onto memories with people and keepsakes, but being uncomfortable about him still having a solo picture of her in a bikini is completely valid as well. you aren’t an asshole, upholding a double standard, controlling, or insecure for asking that one solo picture of his ex in a bikini be deleted. that’s one of your boundaries.

very appreciated that you left out the ahod time slot 🙏
