So you can get dinner and dessert at the same place.

Homecooked meals, stimulating conversation, don’t diss on his music

I was just about to ask this, so thanks, OP, and thanks, answer-givers.

No.

TBF, I don’t really try to keep most things inside anyway, so there’s only a few I need to keep the lid on.

Thinned eyebrows, I love a good thick eyebrow.

I share this blessing. I’m still confused by how exactly people are tasting how spicy their precious meal was when it’s on the way back out.

Tears is better than Breath in every way, it’s true. It’s also more Zelda-like, in that you gradually expand your ability to explore the world.

No, the working class and the lower class are both very empathic. I’m guessing you haven’t spent very much time with us.

Emphasize proper maintenance of the space, equipment, and hygiene standards over speed in the beginning. They’ll get faster over time but they’ll never get less sloppy.

If they get to order a shift meal order it for them the first few times, so they know when to do it without burdening the kitchen and the appropriate price range for comped employee meals.

Make sure both the other BOH staff and the FOH are aware that they are new and the dush pit might get backed up more than usual, and to take the extra time to properly scrape plates and stack to make the new dishie’s life easier while they get the hang of things.

I badly misunderstand the question; I thought you meant the job position, not the appliance.

I have no relevant advice for the latter situation.

I’ve been carfree in Chicago for two decades, I highly recommend it. I keep my license current for emergencies and the odd once-a-year rental situation, but don’t own one. It’s cheaper and safer this way.

MRW I’m on a list with the CIA and the NRA but it’s the Culinary Institute of America and the National Restaurant Association.

That, and so they have an excuse to incarcerate or kill the leadership, see: Haymarket 7, Joe Hill, &c

Boxers, specifically woven boxers. In that the point of drawers is to filter farts and keep your legs from touching each other, they’re the best option to do that. They’re gma lighter-weight fabric than briefs or boxer-briefs; and also a stiffer fabric which means they won’t ride up and let your legs start touching.

Worst of both worlds, they’re the suburbs of underwear.

We’d suffocate and then be crushed.

I find it much less so than, say, reddit, or old-school website fora, or talking to randos on the bus, but then I browse by subscribed.

Stephin Merritt / The Magnetic Fields, and never.

They’ve come through town several times, it’s just never worked out.

Your first time doing taxes, go to the public library and grab the paper copy of the instructions, even if you’re submitting it electronically. Read them and highlight anything that’s confusing or important.

Laundry: Use less detergent than you think, and colder water than you think. Don’t machine-dry any wool and most synthetic fabrics.

ADHD? Look into a bullet journal for keeping track of important info. This is not a product, it’s a method, and you can do it with a 50¢ composition book. The main benefit for someone with ADHD is that it’s stupid easy to start and doesn’t break if you forget to do it for a day or a week or a month.

Buying insurance? Hiring a contractor? Know your budget and get at least three quotes before deciding.

You don’t get promoted by being good at your current job. You get promoted by asking for it, or by jumping to a different company.

Start investing now. Pick a stock or fund that’s boring but steady and buy $50 worth (or more, if you can afford it), rain or shine. Don’t stress about optimizing it; even boring investments should have a return well above inflation.

Never lend anyone money. It will destroy your relationship 90% of the time. If someone needs help and you want to help them, just give them the money. Either they’ll pay it back some other way or they’ll pay it forward, but no matter what it won’t be hanging between you.

If times are hard, don’t be afraid or ashamed to take advantage of programs or food banks. That’s what they’re there for. You’re not taking it away from someone who needs it more, most food banks have a big overflow from week to week. If you feel bad about using these programs when you’re down, well, make sure to donate or volunteer when you’re up.

It’s fun and festive… if they “only have that experience a handful of times in their lives”. If you do it on the reg, it’s just wasting the product. That distinction is what the question is about.
