I made my husband’s nurse laugh her ass off when I came home and he said oh for some reason, I thought you still worked at Walmart. And I asked him does it look like I want to end my own life?
My father used the happy pills until he realized they were enabling him to make short term happy decisions that lead to long term problems, like financial insolvency.
My neighbor's whole family uses the happy pills and it enables them to not worry about where the mortgage payment will be coming from, just have faith and then the job in real estate sales paid off when the market boomed. It worked out for them, but easily could have gone differently.
To me she looks like she turned in her resumé that claimed years of bag holding experience but worked adjacent someone else that held the bag and she's trying to copy what she saw, suffering a severe case of imposter syndrome with witnesses present.
People used to say that to me while I was washing blenders when I worked at a gym. Like do you realize how psychotic I’d look with a big ass grin while washing dishes? Or holding open a bag for pineapple? Shit used to piss me off
Or maybe, and hear me out because this might sound crazy, but maybe not everyone smiles constantly 24 hrs a day. Maybe sometimes they just happen to have a blank expression for the 30 seconds while someone happens to be filming while they’re busy focusing on work tasks.
Pardon for saying this, but it's pure American shit. Forcing workers to smile and keep their heads down and all that crap, and giving them shit for standing up for themselves if the customer is being an entitled asshole.
It's like they think they have a right to be treated like royalty just because they are paying for something. When they go "I'll take my business elsewhere!" And I think: What business? You're a single ass person in a line to buy a burger!
I've seen this my whole life, have been in line at stores and hear customer complaints about the cashier not smiling, sometimes demanding managers to discipline. This country is nuts.
Damn is that why the ates working at Chick-Fil-A always seem so excited about every customer? I was wondering if the working conditions there were somehow enjoyable compared to literally any other fast food place.
I've had nearly 50 years of practice, looking really, really, really, really unimpressed and miserable. I've also held numerous bags in my life. I may be overqualified
Thats the worst case of 'oooh get me - I'm "Mr Pineapple Man", aren't I effin clever... but can't use a vacuum cleaner or change a diaper to save his life" face, I've ever seen.
You stand there. You wait. Your job is to hold the bag, easy, right? You watch, this is fun! He’ll give me the pineapple, I’ll wrap it up, seal the bag, wait for the next. You shift on your feet, the standing still starting to set small aches in your ankles as you anticipate the arrival of the next pineapple. You glance around. This is fun - it’s easy! Just bag pineapples. You swallow, your posture starting to slouch. Yay! A pineapple! With renewed enthusiasm, you bag the second one. But the dopamine hit, the rush of satisfaction begins to wane more and more with each pineapple, the aches in your joints seeping up your body as it begs you to move, to walk, to do something else, something new, to break into a sprint down the street as the doldrum of just standing, holding empty bags begins to grow and grow. Time begins to stagnate. How long has it been, you ask, as two hours quickly slip by. You check your watch. There’s only another hour or two of this before lunch break, you think, the prospect of a future change of scenery now the sole highlight of your existence. But you blink, rereading your watch as you realize you’re gravely mistaken.
as a non-tropical person that was eye-opening when I read online that apparently with fresh pineapples, the core is edible? the ones we get here, the core is like chewing very fibrous, very dry wood. have always wondered what the core tastes like since.
I know this is a joke but she is seen cleaning up the station at the start of the clip, then she turns to do some other stuff, then she holds the bag open with fruit already inside it, and then she seals the bag and probably either gives it to the customer or stores it some place.
