I know!
Speaking of Christian Bale... I still haven't seen The Dark Knight. Not even joking.

I started my first job working at a place washing dishes yesterday.
And I kinda messed up although the owner wasn't there to show me everything I needed to do, someone else kinda did though but not everything. It was also a pretty busy night and I was pretty swamped. I had to wash dishes by hand, no machine to put stuff in. I was pretty slow I guess, and I was like an hour and a half late getting home. There were some signs on the walls about stuff to do but I never got a real explanation. I left the faucets on, the mop out because I had no idea where it went, didn't put everything away but didn't leave that much out, didn't take the trash out. Nggh. I feel like I should have done these things but I didn't want to do them wrong. I guess I should have asked the owner who was working the bar in the back (the place was closed, the bar was opened) what i needed to do. God I wish I did now, but before I knew it I had been telling her I finished and was clocking out. After I left and realized this, I didn't want to approach her after all that time about these things heh.. I think that'd kill me but I guess I really should have.
Has anyone else had something like this happen? I have to go back in a few hours and I really hope I don't get my ass kicked too bad, because I'm not good at taking that T 3 T

It happens! Don't beat yourself up over it. People like us don't ask enough questions because it creates anxiety......But, we need to learn to be better at doing that-especially when it matters. Just Ask!

Thank you, I just really hate to get in trouble over it ; u;
They're just going to wonder why I didn't want to ask. I hate getting in trouble.

I know! It will be over soon! You care about doing a good job which will make you a great employee.
Yeah, in school, I'm also afraid to ask for help from teachers and TAs. When the teacher ask the class "Does anyone have any questions?", most of the time I stay mute even though I have so many questions going through my head. I was afraid to speak in front of everybody, not to mention I also don't want to sound stupid.
When I first started washing dishes at home, I was very slow and it took me a long time to finish. But as I get better at it, I did it much faster. With practice, I think you will master dishwashing in no time.

I hate it when someone expressing sadness over a lost life throws in "and he/she was soooo good-looking as well, it's too bad" - as if the loss of a less attractive person does not matter as much as the death of an attractive one. A life is a life.
It just shows you how shallow people are. I don't understand why evolution has tuned us to value looks so much, it's disheartening.

most owners of small businesses are very busy and take alot of shortcuts when training new help - they kind of depend on you to ask for directions on stuff that you're not clear on, otherwise they just assume you've got it so they can move onto something else. they would much rather that you ask straight up what they expect you to do so they can just cover it one time, rather than have to spend the time going back over it and correcting you later. so don't be afraid to ask them what they want you to do.

Why are burritos so damn delicious? Specifically Tina's Beef and Bean frozen burritos. It's just... oh my god. Words cannot. Describe.
Or maybe it's just because I'm really hungry right now :question:
Oh, and while I'm on the subject of food, Sara Lee changed their butter pound cake recipe! Presumably to make it cheaper. How could you, Sara??? :thumbdown: I loved it the way it was! Now it's so bland and generic. The texture is totally different. How awful. I will never buy it again :'(

Grew a pair and decided to go visit my nan with my family at the home today. I hate that place and it flares my anxiety, and there was an old couple who came out and sat with us. Apparently the woman remembered me but I had no idea who she was. The guy was in a wheelchair and in immense pain so that made me anxious but I got through it. I'm glad I decided to go. My therapist will be happy. :bigsmile:
I'm still texting that girl. She's now adding more wink faces and hugs in them, so that's making me very anxious, but it's nice. Not sure where that's heading yet.
I didn't sleep much last night but I'm having a good day today nonetheless.

I hate having sleep anxiety. I cannot stand sleeping in the same room as another person. It's a bit better if they're on the other side of the room and no where near me, but still. I don't know why I've always been like this.
I have a couple of friends over now, they randomly decided to spend the night and are crashing in my room on the floor. I just separated myself, and am with my cat in the living room.
I love their company, I really do. I'm actually really happy my one friend came since she's leaving for Pittsburgh tomorrow and will be gone for the next few days, plus I hadn't seen her in weeks.
I'll probably end up sleeping on the couch. feel like such a fool. :sad:

Ah, this sucks. I have no issue sleeping with people staying over in my room, but that's just me. At least they're staying over which is nice, right?
Just tell them that you went out for a drink and dozed off on the couch if they ask, which they may not.
I'd rather sleep with people in my room than a spider...!

not actually Fiona Apple
OMG YES. And they are only 40 cents, so broke people like myself can totally afford them too. I actually bought literally 20 of them last time I went grocery shopping and got the weirdest look from the cashier, but did not care. They are amazingical.
Do you ever wish you could turn everything into a burrito? Just look at a delicious meal and go, that would be good in a burrito with some sauce. Probably not, I know I have issues.
Good! Nursing homes can be upsetting, I hope you can continue to be brave. Sorry, but you had a good day in the end that's what counts.
