  • Locally owned and operated retirement home that got new management after og owner retirement.

    They changed the logo to a cross when they changed all their old company practices to a more for profit approach. All during covid when they cut everything too.

    Hired on with the expectation of a 3 month raise. Lol no. First job and first lesson that if it’s not in writing it doesn’t exist.

    One time I found molded beans in bulk storage. Was instructed to scrape off the top layer and use the rest since truck wasn’t coming and we needed it.

    Hardies would routinely ship molded product. Options were pick around the refuse or have nothing. Sometimes a dishwasher or line cook would go to the store with a list when it was too bad.

    The actual secret? You can do a lot to food and still be ok. Honestly got me over my food pickyness. Don’t fuck with the danger zone and you’re good.






  • I get it. Am this way to an extent. Mom for me.

    Recently attempted to be social at work. Out of the 5, 1 is worth spending additional time with.

    If you are comfortable with yourself and who you are, it may take a bit to meet people you actually enjoy.

    If you feel like something is wrong with you therapy would not hurt. Reccomend it for everyone to get them the self care tools they need/want.

    In my experience I was attempting to be social out of obligation and why it always felt like pulling teeth to do anything is because I didn’t really like the people I was with.

    Wish you luck bb 🙏



  • True enlightenment. The truth of everyone being lame as fuck.

    There’s a particular pitch with the women where it feels like it hits the pressure point of my soul.

    Nailed it with men. In my former friend group there was one guy they all liked more, they would literally lame joke/bad take each other for his favor. He and I would talk about it later like WTF he was just like yeaaah always been that way. Mid 20s.

    I’m sure to them i was the lame fuck but when your gut tells you shit is dumb it’s time to find new friends.



  • Everyone’s personal comfort level.

    Give tech classes to elderly. Explaining to them the iphone photo face recognition saw several of their eyes bug out of their head. Some loved it.

    Totally agree about the self ostracization. While I agree with the sentiment you’ll cripple yourself socially.

    Finding your personal comfort zone is the tech journey





  • Bought a 9 incher for server because I sucked at remoting in.

    Fairly delicate but it was like 40 dollars. It is serviceable and serves the need. Am able to complete simple tasks via the touch screen. It kinda spazzes out with multi selecting/ touch but again 40 dollars.

    Cords are fairly obtrusive but never bugged me. Solved by getting on that’s mini hdmi or c like the other poster mentioned.

    Can turn it off with a little switch in the back which it’s mostly off. No issue on power up. Quicker than my dells honestly

    I realize this is the dumbest setup but it works 🤷
