I had a guest try to give me a $10 tip tonight because I saved him a slice of pumpkin bread. But I couldn’t take it because of Target’s no tips rule. ;-;
That barista was actually really adorable and sweet. I asked for a tall coffee in my ~14 oz fox mug and she got all excited but couldn’t remember what a mug was called and kept calling it a thing. So we just kept referring to it as the thing! “I would like coffee in the thing”, “here is your thing” it was just funny. Oh, and she filled it all the way instead of the size I asked for, double yay! I was glad I had extra cash to give her a nice tip because I rarely meet happy bubbly baristas anywhere.
Today I accidentally slammed my nose into a windowsill, it swelled up horribly, but when I went to a Starbucks an hour later two customers and a barista all told me I look like Lorde.
Logic is the math part of math that math people talk about with non-math people while smirking because it seems obvious but it’s not and the math person can’t wait for the non-math person to be wrong and explain why.
Torn between throwing an emotional tantrum and not interacting with anyone or eating properly for a month to show my anger and frustration at not get what I want and being a rational human being and understanding destroying myself to hurt others really hurts myself more than others so I should just carry on.
“A new study published today (Sep. 25) in the journal Science suggests that between 10 to 30 percent of the Earth’s water is older than the sun, and likely hails from comets born outside our solar system.”
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.”
I’ve spent the past few days thinking I had extra money left over from my last paycheck, that I was doing better than usual, then my scheduled bill pay sucked out ¾ of my account almost a week later than usual and now I’m broke again. I’m so angry this week has been so terrible and I was going to treat myself to something nice NOPE NEVER MIND I’M ACTUALLY STILL BROKE.
what should i freaking do if guests CANNOT wait to have their orders taken? i work in starbucks and literally every time i go to the back to get more mix, mocha, whatever, or do any dishes, people feel the need to actually walk INTO THE KITCHEN.
I would say, “GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE!, READ THE GODDAMN SIGN OR YOU GET NOTHING!” ”Sir/Ma’am, can you please get out of the kitchen. I am only but one person who has to fulfill many people’s orders and I am limited to how many I can do at a time. So please if you will leave so I may have the necessary supplies to do my FUCKING job.
But really, I hate when they spring up on me while I’m in the kitchen. Totally uncalled for.
My store didnt recieve any of the new redcard pamphlets and we might not be able to sign guests up for redcards tomorrow cuz the only store in the district that got them wont share and wont photo copy them to us. OMG.
A Target that can’t asked their guests for REDcards, where is this store and when can I start? lol
Seriously, I try to take pictures of my art that has a white background and it doesn’t matter if it’s in direct sunlight, overcast light, indoor light, etc., the white is ALWAYS gray. And I try to edit that out on GIMP or whatever and it never works. It just makes the colors garish and I lose all my midtones.
Seriously context is everything... Especially in the Bible! Christ rebuffed the woman to show the Jews an example of how they acted, and that it was wrong; at the same time he have the woman a challenge of faith to overcome.
Exactly! Then there was when Jesus died on the cross, who was it that was first, “Oh crap… we dun goofed!”? A centurion. A Roman. He was the first to recognize the atrocity. If this is supposed to be the story of the savior of the Jews, for the Jews, why would a gentile care? Because his recognition was symbolic of the fact that now gentiles could be saved, not just the Jews.
In better news, for art critique day someone brought in this adorable, nicely detailed drawing of a spider and she and I and our professor all bonded over our love of spiders, the Spiderbro meme, and stuffed spider toys.
Had to lay some smack down in my Humanities class discussion board because apparently no one bothered to actually read the whole reading.
“Jesus was discriminatory and only preached to the Jews, he turned a Canaanite woman away refusing to heal her daughter.”
BUT IF YOU READ THE NEXT. DARNED. VERSE. HE DOES ACTUALLY HEAL HER.
And behold, aCanaanite woman from that region came out and was crying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is severely oppressed by a demon.” 23 But he did not answer her a word. And his disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away, for she is crying out after us.” 24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” 25 But she came and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, help me.” 26 And he answered, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.” 27 She said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table.” 28 Then Jesus answered her, “O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed instantly.
How do you miss that??? Is your head so far up your thesis’ butt that you will ignored THE NEXT VERSE?
I don’t understand how anyone that has worked in retail can think it’s okay to be an asshole to other people in retail.
There was this time I went to McDonalds for breakfast and asked for the sausage and egg snack wrap, but they gave me the McMuffin instead.
I went up to the cashier, and apologized for bothering them because it was rush hour and explained to them politely that there had been a mix up. I also asked if I could be refunded the difference because the McMuffin was more than the snack wrap.
The lovely cashier apologized for the inconvenience and gave me a full refund on the McMuffin. After she gave me my snack wrap, I reminded her that I hadn’t yet paid for it, and she replied “No worries, you can have that for nothing, sorry for the mix up.”
I was almost speechless, I even asked “Are you sure?” because I felt bad just taking it. Seriously, I wouldn’t have minded paying.
But it also reminded me that some places do still care about polite customers, and that they don’t just let the rude customers have their way all the time, because that is one thing that ticks me off more than anything - the way we ‘reward’ rude customers. The way we give into their demands. They way we give them what they want even when they’ve just treated the staff like shit.
We should not be encourage this sort of behaviour, we should be thinking of the polite customers and encouraging good manners.
It’s so true, I’ve had so many people try to play the “you got my order wrong” card to get free drinks and it’s mind-boggling. If I get really nice people and it’s not busy, I always ask them if they want an extra topping or to try a sample of a drink before ordering. Lord knows that I want those nice people to come back.
I just want to sleep but I have three many assignments due before midnight or I get automatically dropped from my class wtf kind of system is this “go at your own pace” online classes my BUTT
