Random Win: The irl Fuck Ya thread

neither has the public, is the point.

Disney World has a long standing policy of absolutely no facial hair on their employees, unless it is for a character like Jack Sparrow or whatever. The irony being that Walt Disney himself wouldn't be allowed to work at his own theme park.

[hey]

You would think that, but corporate world hasn't caught up to that.

Neither have most people who will judge you for your appearance.

[Xantavia]

The line I got from several different employers (all retail type jobs) was that looking different would make the older customers feel uncomfortable. I would likely be biased by a lawyer or something if they didn't have a clean-cut look. But the part-time teen working the register or stocking shelves something wouldn't make me blink.

Eh, I wouldn't sit down to talk about life insurance plans or a mortgage with a woman with a ton of piercings and pink hair. It's nice to be an individual and everyone has a right to do so, but keep it out of the professional world.

[Eldelphia]

Because pink hair obviously means you know less about life insurance.... I know what you're saying and that it's how the world currently works but ut shouldn't.

[BaneTheBrawler]

it's not so much an estimate of someone's competence as it is their professionalism. if i'm sitting down to buy life insurance, i want an agent who takes it seriously enough to care about their professional image. pink hair wouldn't really be a dealbreaker, but it would be a detractor.

[Karbuncle]

Its a nice flaw most humans have, judging a book by its cover.. In most cases those people are as professional as anyone. Its the idea you need a suit and to look like a nice, clean shaven, white teeth bright smiled poster boy to be "Professional" thats the perpetuated problem.

but thats a problem with society as a whole, not you guys in particular. You can't help you're raised with all this influence on how normal is and looks and should be.

Go into a convenience store to buy a drink. The drink is $3 i hand the cashier a 20 and he hands me back 27. I left the store before he realized the mistake.

[Boyiee]

And you were a good person and gave it back?

[CoreyX]

I can't wait until we can all walk around looking like citizens from The Capitol in the Hunger Games

Drunk off my fucking add but somehow put in my
Username and password right. So fucking drunk now. Fucking autocorrect ftw.

Astylla has actually no recollection of this. Does it make it a fail?

[Xno Kappa]

Gonna quit drinking. I think age is catching up to me, I can't recover from hangovers like I used to.

I'm lucky on that end..kinda. I don't get hangovers , like ever. I've been blackout drunk unfortunately more times than I care to admit - no hangover and I don't drink water when I drink which I know is bad.
However I wake up drunk still , like this morning.

I believe I started drinking yesterday around 5pm and ended close to 11:30pm..
Woke up around 9:30am and was still tipsy until about 12:30pm.

But yeah I definitely can't bounce back like I did 10 years ago

[Anoat]

I'm usually alright if I drink water during and after booze time, and a little food. The last time I got REALLY sick (I'm talking like a 2 1/2 day hangover here) I was outside day drinking at a Mardi Gras parade and I didn't hydrate or eat and I paid for it dearly.

[Airenn]

I quit drinking a little over a year ago. Aside from wine at Christmas I haven't any alcohol or beer. I still feel weird saying "No thanks, I stopped drinking." I wasn't an alcoholic, I just always felt sick after drinking. Complete lightweight, stomach churning, headaches. Blarg.

Took up other recreational and less depressive substances, though. Ah well.

[Sepukku]

Im also in the no hangovers club. I had ~20 drinks, mostly shots, for my last birthday and had no coordination, memory, headache, or blackout issues during/next day.

Last summer I drank heavily every night on vacation and still got up before noon every day and went for a run on the beach before the others woke up.

IDK how I do it either since I'm skinny as fuck. I think it has to do with me not drinking any sugar or carbs (never mix with soda, never have full carb beers) as much as possible, I think if you down 100+ extra carbs during the evening along with your alcohol you amplify the dehydration.

Where have I seen this before?

[BaneTheBrawler]

in high school i would tell people alcohol would react badly with my medication and could kill me. not strictly true, but not entirely false; i can drink, but run more risks of damage than most people. eventually got around to trying it, it's not worth the pain. by the time i drink enough beer to get a decent buzz going, my guts get irritated. even with liquor i have to balance it very, very carefully and it's still not worth the hassle. so i pretty much just have 1-2 drinks now and then for celebrations- new year's, etc.
