In my Volkswagen Beetle once. It was exciting in the moment but looking back it was pretty meh.

Definitely do it in person and take the approach of “I was offered $17.50 initially and I have show I am reliable/hardworking over the last 4 months, and I would like to earn $X now” rather than “it’s not fair I was told this rate but got paid less”. Specific examples to show your value are helpful, use a friendly but firm approach, but recognize usually employers have complete discretion in wages unless you are part of union or have a contract so there’s a chance they will say no.
Another option is to use those 4 months of experience to get a new warehouse job with better pay. People tend to earn more job hopping than waiting for raises.
Cognitive dissonance. People see themselves as rational and intelligent and anything that counters that is very difficult to accept, so they double down.
For fucks sake. I hope her family calls the ACLU.
What does shaking your ass at a private party have to do with your academics? This is the dumbest situation. This poor girl.
Burgerville is sooooo good.
The worst typo I ever made was texting my friend who is a Black woman that she needed a bigger TV. Unfortunately the b & n are right next to each other on the keyboard and I wrote one of the most offensive words ever. Even though it was an innocent mistake, I apologized profusely to her.
“Oh no, I want to bake a pineapple upside down cake later, I’m not hungry now.”
We do the same three taps on the shoulder or hand squeezes for “I love you” too. Hon, is that you?
“Do we have any pineapple at home?” is our safe word for social situations when one of us needs a reason to leave a situation or change the conversation because they’re uncomfortable. I detest pineapple.
I don’t really know enough to have an informed opinion, but the first thing that came to mind is the news articles I’ve seen that Uttar Pradesh is very unfriendly towards women. There is an article that just got posted in the news community today that is pretty horrifying.
Never mind the issues with dehydration, I could not be alone with my thoughts for that long.
A few days ago. It was my dog’s 14th birthday. She passed away in May though.
Most of David Sedaris’s books could fit the bill. His books are usually a collection of short stories with an overarching theme and are funny and easy to follow.
OP refers to her as “she” in another comment.
This is correct. I’m sure the woman has moved on at this point but she definitely remembers. A simple “sorry, ghosting you wasn’t right” will go a long way.
Social worker is pretty high on the list. Most are overworked, underpaid and treated poorly by their management, their clients, or both.
I’ve only ever flown on Southwest, which is basically the Greyhound bus of the sky.
I fell off a walking path into a bunch of massive rocks Wile E Coyote style five minutes into sight seeing with my brother who I hadn’t seen in 10 years. I managed to hobble away with only a grade three sprain and some horrible bruising. It’s healed now but perpetually stiff. My new normal is walking down stairs like a 95 year old.
