She’s the kind of person that complains all the time that she’s fat, but only eats fast food.

She’s always dumping her personal issues.. even though I’m quick to ignore her or change the subject. “I don’t make enough… I’m so poor… I’m so fat”

Lady will walk in every morning with McDonald’s, eat chips all afternoon, go out and buy 3 tubs of fried food for lunch, and then snack on candy and cake until close. It’s sad really.

I’m in shape and healthy, and she always commenting on my weight and food choices. Whenever I eat lunch or a snack she asks me what I’m eating has to eat herself. I never once comment on her eating habits, although it’s disgusting to smell all the time. She has insulted me for eating healthy has bought junk food “for the office” and tried to influence to me to eat things that my body literally just can’t digest. I turn it down, she acts like I’m stuck up.

This is toxic at this point. At first I was happy to be able to snack and have lunch at my desk, but she’s abusing that privilege and eating herself to death in front of us. I get that food addiction is a mental illness, but her lack of boundaries has worn me thin on caring about her wellbeing like I would for anyone else.

Honestly, she’s so bad at her job anyways, I’m just counting the days until she’s fired. She’s just trashy and unprofessional and considering she can’t not keep her private life private she’s already told me 10 times that the boss has told her he doesn’t think she’s right for this job.

Thanks for listening to me vent.

Edit: There's been a lot of assumption that I'm a health nut because I stay in shape. I wish I liked working out that much. I'm not even super skinny, but I know I have to have a balanced diet and regular exercise to protect my body. I am preachy about it to no one. I'll eat takeout on the weekends and junk food on occasion; I'm not that strict.

I started a new job a month ago as an event manager for an entertainment center. It was know before I started that in addition to my job, I would have to help the general manager with day-to-day operations; however, since entering this position, I have been given a lot more work than I agreed to in advance. I'm wearing a lot of hats, and this has been a ton work.

I am essentially the assistant manager, managing all bookings and events, and expected to a lot of the base marketing and business development. This is all stuff I'm good at, and not against doing, and I am just wondering if I undervalued myself and if I am getting underpaid for this work. I make $28 an hour.

If I do ask for more, how much more is fair? I know not to ask until I have been here a while, is 6 months too soon?

I live in RI, and my mom and dad who I never see are coming to see me this July after he retires.. finally.. at almost 70. He’s worked so hard his whole career as a chef who is so passionate about food. I want to find him a good tasting menu and treat him.

I would even pay extra for a chef that would come and greet him, because he really respects and loves stuff like that, but I know that’s a big ask. I’m just trying to find something special for him.

Any leads are super appreciated. Thanks!

I’m looking for a roommate or a room to rent in Providence county or Attleboro area. Can be flexible on area.
