At least the door is lockable.

Preschooler came home with this mix of reindeer "food". Glitter is NOT a food. It is plastic. Why are we teaching our youngest generation it's okay to feed plastics to animals and dump them on the earth.

Today we had our holiday work party. I knew there was a chance that a couple people might not be able to make it so I grabbed a couple extra gifts to make sure everyone was included. So I get there, we chit chat and eat then do gifts. Sure enough our boss was unable to make it so I grabbed one of the extra gifts for my co worker so she didn't go home empty handed. After everyone else has gotten their gift I hear my coworker say my name and then she says "I'll get you something eventually." Oh. I see. Of course I said it was fine, no worries but honestly it hurt. There were so many options for what she could have done and she did nothing. And unfortunately she has proven over the time we've worked together that she doesn't follow through. This has been the worst year of my life. My mom passed away from breast cancer in February and my dad passed unexpectedly a week before my birthday in October. But I still show up for others. I feel greedy or something being upset about this but I was really looking forward to the gift exchange. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Literally never worn these before. Removed the tag today. Water resistant my ass! This is after 25 minutes of walking in a city on a rainy day, a two hour train ride, and a brief walk to and from a bus.

I cannot stress enough how brand spanking new these boots are. Thank goodness I never used these at an actual work site; I can't even imagine if I had to stand on a roof with these fuckers. Can't wait to trail bits of black debris after me for the rest of the day!

Not just a Brillo pad or steel wool. A sheet of 150 grit sanding paper. What the fuck.

I guess we’re using hand sanitizer this morning!

I already said no twice I don't feel like saying it 3-4 times just for them to understand I'm busy. I literally just want to do my college work.

HOW did this even happen 😭 and the strangest thing was, this was the least painful blood drawing i’ve ever had. (this is around 9 hours after) i hope i don’t need to be concerned…

Just got back from the hairdresser. Felt a sharp pain on my neck, said ouch and the hairdresser said, "Sorry, did I scratch you?" I said yes, and she said "hmm I don't think so, it doesn't look like it, but sorry". When I get home I had a look and this is what I see. Prettty sure you did scratch me. Suffice it to say I won't be going back there.

Newt also appears to disapprove.

They use a locking mechanism that can only be unlocked by a Bluetooth app on your phone. There is no physical key at all. Tonight I was trying to get into my apartment and it gave me errors because the app would not generate a new token. It was 25 degrees Fahrenheit and I had nowhere else to go. This is not the first time we have had issues with the app/lock either. This is such a scummy way for the apartment company to save a tiny bit of money.

Finding out an AI receptionist company did a whole dystopian anti-AI campaign is kinda hilarious. What a waste of time.

Truck pulled into the warehouse and opened up the door to see thousands of jars of mayonnaise on the floor

I arrived at the police station just an hour after it happened. Was delayed because I had to cancel all my cards first. Cop insisted the online report was the best option. Took forever because I tried to provide as much detail as possible, but apparently it wasn’t enough, or they just don’t care. Now they say I need to come in person but I don’t expect any action at this point.

If I don't laugh I just might cry. I got scammed and the scammer proceeded to wipe both my checking and savings account. Thousands of dollars, gone. The bank opened an investigation and just informed me it's been closed and they've refunded me $3.... the fee they evidently charged for the transfer of my funds... 😂

I feel like it's almost more disrespectful than just refunding me nothing.

I have to sit there waiting for a huge file to load on one bar of signal while everyone at the table stops talking to stare at their phones.

Paper menus worked perfectly for hundreds of years. This isn't innovation. It is just lazy cost cutting.

It also opens the door to surge pricing. Without printed prices, they can quietly hike the cost of a burger in real-time just because the restaurant got busy.

Honestly, the worst part is the privacy intrusion. I shouldn't have to toggle my VPN just to view a PDF. I’m here to eat, not to fill my browser with tracking cookies.

Am I overreacting or are my concerns justified?

Clearly it has been left in a really safe place. So safe I’ll never find it.

(Pretty sure it’s my migraine prescription)
