One of the things I hate about getting old is not being able to get away with eating anything. You really feel all the bad symptoms from the unhealthy foods.

One of the things I hate about getting old is not being able to get away with eating anything. You really feel all the bad symptoms from the unhealthy foods.

I love seasoning all my food with extra salt and pepper, and I've done it my whole life. At 43, I have to cut back on it now. The other day I added too much salt, just like how I love it on my chicken, and I woke up with hypertension. I was super dizzy, could barely walk, etc...

I used to be able to get away with it in my 20s, 30s, but not so much now. I love salt and pepper on everything. Also, now when I eat fast food, it puts me into a food coma. In the past I could munch down and still continue my day.

I'm 43 and even though I look super young, my guts, my organs, my joints, my bones behave like my numerical age.

Those of you who came out of poverty. Were you so broke in the past for the longest time that the broke mindset still stuck with you even after youve obtained money?

Those of you who came out of poverty. Were you so broke in the past for the longest time that the broke mindset still stuck with you even after youve obtained money?

Like grocery shopping you see something you want to splurge on and instinctly "I can't because I'm broke." Then it hits you, "wait that was years ago, what was I thinking it." Then buys the product.

That's what I'm going through right now. Not with groceries but with other things in life. It's always this feeling of being broke and not being able to do things and I have to remember I'm no longer broke. Like I saw how beautiful some landscape looked in another country and thought, I'm so broke I'll never be able to do that. Then it hit me, that was 10 years ago, you have the money now, go there in 4 months.

It's going to be a long time until I shake off this being broke mindset. It's hard because I was broke and desperate for such a long while that it became my personality.

Sam's Club warehouse freight handler question...

Sam's Club warehouse freight handler question...

I'm wondering what the overnight hours are for the weekend shift.

Plus, will they constantly call me to come in during the week days?

Also, will I have to manually wrap pallets?

I received an email for a job offer, but I already have a job I really like but that weekend shift at Sams sounds super enticing.

Lazy 18 year olds who land their first job in the freight department D38 have no clue as to how good they have it at Home Depot.

Lazy 18 year olds who land their first job in the freight department D38 have no clue as to how good they have it at Home Depot.

They get this job because they have a family member that works there, or by accident because the department is short on workers and need people ASAP, so the company will bring in anyone with a pulse. Here's the thing, this is their 1st job and:

- They are lazy as heck.

- they disappear on hard working co workers for 2 or 3 hours.

- don't complete their pallets or silver karts and the boss will tell a hard worker to complete it.

- when they do work, they do an incomplete job with a ton of errors because they don't care to try.

- turn their 10 minute break into 30 to 40 minute breaks.

Now here's the thing, they will never get written up for poor performance or purposely doing a bad job and they always get themselves fired for poor attendance. I've seen this over and over and over. They will go missing for 2 weeks and just show up out of no where only to have the Boss work with them to try to keep them on and will go missing again for another week which leaves the NOASM no other option but to fire them.

I've seen at least 2 try to come back. They had no idea how good they had it because I've never seen a co.pany cater to, and tolerate such laziness. I know exactly what went on their minds when they worked at other jobs after Home Depot, "this is a slave labor camp." That's exactly what they were thinking and remembering how good they had it at home depot. They remember being able to duck work for 2 hours while.playinf on their phones all night, they remember they were allowed to take 500 restroom breaks, they remember how they could walk away from their job task and someone else was told to finish it, they remember how they were allowed to show up to work high and they miss all that freedom.

Alot of young lazy kids have no idea how good they had it at D38 Freight until they leave and other companies and bosses actually make them.work. I busted out laughing when I heard 2 was begging and pleading to come back lol.

I never once told on them while they were here because there was no point. Other people already said something and nothing was done but when I heard they wanted to come back so bad I literally said, please don't bring them back, do you know how many times they left me hanging at Garden, paint, plumbing? They would disappear for 2 or 3 hours while I did all their work, please don't bring them back.

I hate to block someone's money which provides food and shelter for them, but come on, if they were to come back that would make my work life 5x harder than it should.. Some of these kids were so lazy that if you did 30 percent of the job task, I would see you as an esceptional worker. They didn't even do 10 percent.

I told 1 kid who I knew was going to disappear on me to just take out my trash and that's it. He took my trash cart to the compactor and stood there playing on his phone for 1 hour and walked away without putting the trash in the compactor. If you don't do anything all night, is putting the trash in the trash compactor really that hard?

When I heard he was trying to comeback, I did everything I could to block him from returning. Call me a POS but I can't deal with that laziness.

I just noticed you can tolerate most hateful, stressful, and dreadful thing about your job if you eat clean and get at least 10 hours of sleep at night.

I just noticed you can tolerate most hateful, stressful, and dreadful thing about your job if you eat clean and get at least 10 hours of sleep at night.

If your body feels good from eating clean and resting well, the stress and anxiety you deal with at work is no where near as bad as if it would be from a unhealthy lifestyle.

A glossy screen is unbearable for me. I don't know how the smallest reflection doesn't annoy you.

A glossy screen is unbearable for me. I don't know how the smallest reflection doesn't annoy you. I hate seeing my reflection, I hate seeing any outline the glossy screen picks up such as the light bulb. I really can't enjoy games, movies, web browsing etc on a glossy. A glossy laptop, glossy monitor, glossy phone etc... I had to buy a matte screen protector for my laptop and my phone and I will return my monitor and will get a matte one.

Don't you hate stupid a** bosses that tell you the daily job task/plan that you do every day and you already pre planned to do, whether they are there or not. It's like stood making yourself look like you're needed and GTFO my face.

Don't you hate stupid a** bosses that tell you the daily job task/plan that you do every day and already pre planned to do, whether they are there or not. It's like stop making yourself look like you're needed and GTFO my face.

I was never a bartender but let's just say we were one and everyday had a boss at the start of the shift tell us the same thing at the team meeting. "Ok today I need you to be at the bar serving customers." Whether he's there or not, you're always at the bar serving customers. That's your job. Then the next day, same team meeting with the same message. It's like get out of my face idiot!

It's like, hey do x y z. When you're done with a b c. I almost blurted out "that's what I always do moron!" But I can't be mad because he treats me real nice. It's just an annoyance telling me my job task that I've been doing every day before he was ever even hired. Like wtf stop trying to look useful, we don't need you as a boss if we are self managed.

If you had blunt force trauma to your head, like getting kod, car crash, falling from a ladder and hitting your head, can verbal therapy with a psychologist really heal the depression cause by the chemical imbalance in the brain?

I mean this is a different type of depression, a different type of cause. It's not like you were SA as a child, bullied at school, or grew up looking ugly and still ugly. If had physical damage to your head.

I don't know if I should see a psychiatrist for this because my head was cracked bad and I have bad depression from it.

Saying F.U to my elderly 65+ year old parents for being too overbearing with clothes.

It was like this for me since a child, they would always buy new clothes for me to try one and would force me to wear it. It becomes an issue when I tell them, "I already have 6 of these! All different brands!" Or "why did you get the expensive brand? You wasted your money. I'm never going to wear it cause I have the other brand already!" Or "I'm busy right now I don't give a crap about trying on new clothes, leave me alone!"

This has went on for 40 something years now. In the past I always cursed them in my head, and here recently I got so pissed because when I saw them, they bought me more clothes and I told them to save their money and I don't need any clothes but they kept forcing it on me so I said F U!!!!!! First to my mom who's 65.

I felt so bad to a point to where I repented in my heart and begged Jesus to forgive me. Right then and there while I was doing it over and over for at least 1 hour as I was driving to work and at work I kept telling Jesus I was sorry. Alot of things were revealed to me. It was like I just knew.

When my parents were kids, before they met each other, they were dirt poor. Had the same clothes to wear for school everyday. Before they met each other they vowed to themselves that if they were to have a child one day, they would spoil him with clothes and would dress him up. My dad is not very good looking and my mom was average looking, but some how the smallest mutation of luck made me good looking. It was never the clothes that had women attracted to me, it was my face. When my parents saw that they produced a good looking kid, whatever they had planned was then multiplied by 2.

This sounds minor but it's not, you have no idea how annoying it was to be stopped in the middle of something important just to be told to try on some new shirt or shoes they bought me. Their obsession was over the top mental illness. I remember growing up in the 80s and 90s and wanting a new video game, or video game system and asking my parents for one, even though they bought it for me, they had this look on their face like it could be better spent on something else.

However, they had no problems buying me 1 shoes worth a console system, if I asked them for 200 dollars for a Ralph Lauren jacket, my mom's face would light up and she would say, let's go pick it up this Saturday and I was 14 at the time. They got me new expensive shoes every 6 months. I'm not even into shoes like that because of my child hood.

I wished I hadn't said F U and wasn't so self centered all these years because I would have understood this much sooner. They weren't good looking physically and didn't have nice clothes, they produced a good looking child and now they're living through me even though they're 65+.

Going from warehouse to the receiving area in retail is a game changer and a world of difference... Like most of you, I come from a cut throat warehouse environment where you're not allowed to converse with coworkers, go missing for 2 days and then you're automatically fired, bosses micro manage every little millimeter and nit pick on the smallest thing, write ups for the dumbest infractions, I can go on and on but you guys know how it is in a cut throat warehouse...

I had a terrible accident at home and was off of work for 2 years and decided to do a practice run so I applied for home Depot freight, it's just like a warehouse job but minus everything I said up there. The work culture is 1 million times better than any warehouse. Even if you try and you're a low performer, you'll still be treated with kindness. If you were a superstar at your warehouse like I was, and you take that same work ethic to retail, you can be in management in under 1 year and upper management in 3 or 5 years and probably getting paid way more than a warehouse manager.

I had to quit home Depot over night freight because I got tired of working with lazy coworkers. That's one thing I missed about the warehouse, lazy co workers got dealt with quick by management. In retail, not so much. They never get written up for performance and only fire themselves by going missing for weeks.
