It’s not just cartoons it’s a teen girl in a dinosaur mask talking, and lots of videos of her showing her stickers off with babies crying in the background. Has anyone else seen this?
I had my car parked in one spot for less than 2 weeks. Mind you, I was in the hospital for a terrible health issue that had me laid out for weeks.
I finally got to my car today. Two guys are standing outside their building talking. They saw me get to my car and angrily started yelling at me, asking why I left my car, and telling me I’m not supposed to do that and asking what’s wrong with me. Mind you, I know people who literally leave their cars for weeks or months. I was in a spot on a quiet side street.
What exactly were they trying to achieve? I’m a woman and I really didn’t feel like getting into a fight with two grown men so I told them to have a great day and got out of there. But I really wished they minded their own business. Should I have told them I was in the hospital?
I emailed both their corporate email as well as the manager of the Brooklyn location, and have heard nothing back. Is this normal? Are they now ghosting customers?
Realistically, what can be done to complain about this? Obviously the new QR code system is trash. But it goes beyond that. Why does ordering a soda take 45 minutes to arrive? Why are there so few employees working, and they are extremely unhelpful and literally don’t gaf. The food is trash now, service is trash, bathrooms disgusting.
A year ago this would have been a fun night out, dinner and fancy cocktails at the movies. Now it’s stressful as fuck and there’s no one there to complain to. Is corporate reading these threads?
I have now seen this in multiple friends and I’m curious if this is a millennial parenting tactic or what am I missing.
For example, I asked my friend if she wanted to meet up with me for a walk in a park near their house that was having a flower exhibit. I told her I had to tell her some news and wanted to talk. This park is very close to their house and very walkable/easy to do with a toddler. I went to her house and her child was on the couch playing with something . She asked, do you want to go look at flowers and go to the park? The toddler shook their head and said nah, I want to stay here. So we stayed there?? The entire time I was trying to tell my friend some serious news, and the toddler was interrupting, asking us to play, saying he wanted to show me his toys, every minute there was another distraction and his parent was not stopping this behavior. I wound up never getting to talk about my news and we never saw outside.
Now normally I would brush this off but I was visiting another friend recently and my friend said they wanted to show me this really cool new store that opened up. We were walking past the store and my friend asked her child, do you want to look at books and crystals? The child screamed no!!! She shrugged and said sorry to me. It was SO odd because she didn’t have to ask the child anything, we were about to enter the store.
Is this a new style of parenting where we let children dictate the plans of adults? In my opinion; it would have been very easy to say, nothing and walk in the store, or say, okay we are going into this store now. To give the illusion of choice, she could have asked do you want to look at books or rocks right now? Very odd that we just went home. What is going on??
