I feel like I (m33) work hard [Part time/Healthcare (Porter)] whenever I come in for a shift. I get things done well and efficient, and always try to be positive.

I appreciate that my coworkers understand that and give me Kudos when it’s deserved (as I do for them); but one thing that drives me nuts is when they use it do less work. Or if they’re a lazy worker, a way to make you feel good about them being shitty at their job lol.

They will literally come up and say, “wow, you take the calls so fast, how are we supposed to keep up?”

Meanwhile after the second call in a row I’ve taken (4 other people also on with me), I will leave the next call and watch it sit there for several mins and nobody will take it. They expect me to do it.

I know there are several things I could probably do about it, but that’s not the point. I work and do my job and just because I’m efficient means I should be punished? Haha.

Don’t need any help with it, just wondering if others deal with this constantly but some short solutions other than “just stop doing their job for them” or “report it to your supervisors”.

I like these people lol. I just don’t like the ego boosting to make themselves feel better about doing less work.

Thank for listening to my rant. Just finished a night shift. Bed time zzzz.

We went to the World of Coke yesterday to with some out of town family. As we went through the gift shop on the way out, my husband started shopping and was looking at the hats. He already has so many hats that he doesn’t wear so I said do you really need another hat? He said yes and proceeded to pick one out that he liked and as a cherry on top, also bought a t-shirt. I’m just annoyed because we don’t even drink coke nor did we really enjoy the coke museum (it’s fine but not that exciting), so why would he bother buying overpriced souvenirs there? (The hat was $40 and the shirt was $30). We leave the shop and are walking back to the car and he decides to try the hat on and it’s way too big — the rim made his ears stick out and were all laughing and teasing and I’m like well let’s just pop back in and get you a different hat that fits and he refused. He said I would rather throw my $40 away than go back and ask for a new hat. He is so prideful when it comes to stuff like that. He knows he messed up but couldn’t admit that and therefore couldn’t fix the situation. So that’s it, I’m annoyed that he feels the need to buy a hat everywhere we go and doesn’t even bother to try them on and make sure they fit. Big waste of money, might as well look at it as a donation to Coca Cola.

I understand this is for my safety but i like to keep my data information minimal as possible

When ever I’m out with a friend and get cut I never have bandaids on me and for some reason every bandaid that all my friends have are not latex free so when I get home the area with the bandaid gets way too itchy and I end up peeling the bandaid off just for it to be itchy of the next day or 2. From now on I’m carrying a whole box of latex free bandaids on me everywhere I go

My hips are literally as wide as the table

No place said how many pieces it will have so i expected at least 20 with how tha package looks

My last phone had this too so i thought buying a new phone would fix it, but no

I might be accoustic

You can only pushover box at a time. They all need to land on a red dot. You can't pull the boxes. There is no solution for the middle box.

As I have at least 1,000 times before, on my bicycle I came up to a vehicle stopped at a light and let the driver know that their brake light was out. It's an easy, low-effort way to help people out.

This guy was on a beat-up old scooter, wearing a full-face helmet with big dark sunglasses. All I could see of his face was his nose and gray scruff, and he showed no response other than looking in my direction. We're in Japan and maybe my Japanese wasn't clear, so I said the same thing in a different way, saying that he should change the bulb on his brake light.

More stare, and then in a upper-class British English: "How about some English?"

Not "Sorry, I don't speak Japanese" or "Oh, do you speak English?".

"Fuck dude, we're in Japan and you have a full-face helmet on, what do you expect?" followed by "Your brake light is out."

More stare. No "Oh, thanks" or anything like that.

Sigh.

[Before anyone comments about it, I make sure to pull up in a nonthreatening way, keeping distance from the vehicle and pulling slightly forward before stopping so that they're not surprised by a big white dude addressing them from the corner of their eye. The vast majority of people are surprised and thankful to be told.]

I thought I was going nuts. Turns out there's at least an inch of difference in length between these socks.

They don’t even get to fully dry.

Remote control for seized reference.

Went camping the other day and my completely sealed bag of freeze dried camping food was full of dead moths and cobwebs.

I checked the whole bag to find any openings, nothing. Must’ve happened during the manufacturing process.

Thankfully REI will replace my bag, hopefully my other bags from Peak Refuel don’t have this same problem.

They had one f***ing job

Mykhailo Viktorovych Polyakov, 24, allegedly landed on North Sentinel Island in an apparent attempt to make contact with the isolated Sentinelese tribe, filming his visit and leaving a can of coke and a coconut on the shore.

I work for Costco and I was doing go backs after hour when I saw these two are the last high quantity products of the Ziploc bags to each respectively and their replacements are in the same size box. Is inflation really this bad that you have to reduce this much for the same price?

No used band-aids to be seen, thankfully.

Not terrible, but still kinda gross 🤢

Also lame bc this is one of two bikes we have, and the other only works about 1/2 the time.
