Okay, I'm here to annoy you guys instead of my Broista haha. I'm very particular with my coffee and I'm not exactly sure what it is I'm looking for. I've tried a lot of drinks and they don't always quite hit for me. I like my coffee sweet, but to still be able to taste espresso strongly. I don't really care for cold brews as I don't find them concentrated enough. I like most of the mochas I've tried. The Hazelnut Truffle Mocha has been my favorite, but it's not quite right. Soft top is my best friend. I tried a double torture recently and it actually bordered on too strong for me. I know how obnoxious this all sounds but I'd love to have a consistent order instead of getting something different that I *kinda* like every time.

I had to get two shifts covered this month+one in late June and get a day off approved that I forgot about completely until barely two weeks before. Like I know for a fact plenty of people in the history of workplaces have beat themselves up wayyy less for worse but I don't know. In my mind this means I'm evil and everybody I work with hates me. It felt like things just kept coming up. Like to be clear, I am NEVER this guy. I ask for days off months in advance, I get shifts covered the second I see the schedule or I just plan around the schedule when it's out, and I'm the first person to pick up a shift for someone else. Maybe that makes it a little less crappy of me? Someone please tell me I'm overthinking this. :(

That's all I got. This is my third SAS now and this one knocked me on my ASS dude. Completely slammed, registers 2 and 4 went down multiple times, BOPIS we had no hope of keeping up with, loads of people deciding now is the PERFECT time for that return they've been meaning to do for 3 months, people fighting me on coupons and prices, tacking on an EE with a price difference of 51 pathetic cents. Someone came in and bought like 32 soaps, decided she didn't like that they weren't sale price, and came back and returned them all within the hour with the line halfway through the store forming behind her. Another lady picked up an order from yesterday, waited until after I confirmed it to complain about the EE and ask for a price adjustment, and then waited until after I returned her whole goddamn order to complain about how she had used a 10 off 40. SHE WAS STILL PAYING LESS MIND YOU. Happy thoughts. Thinking happy thoughts. I need a hug.

Signed in to an account I made FOREVER ago (like, pre-covid) to use as a burner. Tried to make it current. Got suspended because I tried to update my birthday. It's telling me I can appeal to get the account back but that I have to start by signing in. Every time I try to sign in using the username or email, it insists the account doesn't exist. It doesn't come up in search either. But when I tried to make a new account using the same email, it says that email is already attached to account. Is there a support I can email or am I just cooked unless I wait the 30 days for it to delete itself?

I'm not exactly trying to hide it, but MAN. All the time at work or at college, I have people make comments to me about how us ND folk have to stick together, asking if I'm on the spectrum, or suddenly start talking about their autistic nephew... I guess I'm glad people are comfortable bringing the topic up with me. It's just such a constant thing. I didn't realize how obvious it apparently was until I started going out more.

I love this job. I love to complain about it, but I love this job. I love *most* of our customers and our products and the different seasons. I've been with the company for about a year now. My whole life, I've had a condition called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, which is a group of 13 connective tissue disorders that result in joints being loose and achey as well as causing abnormal skin growth and scar formation. It's gone untreated almost my entire life up until that past few years where I've started using a cane to walk longer distances or if I'll be out the whole day. I didn't usually need it for something simple like a trip to the convenience store, but then this month, I got sick. I got a NASTY case of the flu and suddenly I couldn't even get around my house without it. It's been ASTRONOMICALLY helpful in getting me back to normal—but. I haven't worked from when I first got it to now where I'm no longer showing symptoms. And I've become nearly completely reliant on my cane for mobility. Without it, my calves seem to seize up and moving becomes very difficult. I want to try a shift or two without it to see how I do, but I'm very scared of not being able to make it through work. As we all know, this job requires a lot of movement and usually for your hands to be free. It's an awful time to be out of work, and I would hate to lose a job that I love that I used to be able to do just fine. I work later today, and it's a short, closing, weekday shift, so it's a safe time to see how I do. Maybe it wouldn't be a big deal if I brought my cane in and I'm severely overthinking it. I don't know. If any of you have had experience using a mobility aid at B&BW, I'd like to hear about it.

As far as I'm aware, I do not have tourettes. I had severe, common tics in my middle-late high-school years. Now, on the whole, they're very occasional. I'll get one randomly every so often. The past few months, however, I've been getting tic attacks. Absolutely nothing for days or weeks—then a sequence of repeated verbal and physical tics that last an extended period of time. Earlier this month, I realized I had had a few more than usual in a short period of time that suddenly became 45 entire minutes of them. They did not stop until I was 1: very tightly squeezed 2: had access to the only medicine I am prescribed (not typically for tics, but was effective. I have access to neither of these things presently.) I am having them closer and closer together like I was earlier this month, and I'm sort of hoping to get ahead of it. Not looking for a diagnosis. Just advice. I don't know if there's anything that can be done to stop it completely. Assuming not.

Hello, r/trumpet :) freshman in college, started playing trumpet senior year, took about a 2-year break in-between. I've had it picked back up about 3 months. My comfortable range is A-D, but as of this week, I've been hitting Es and Fs a little more comfortably. When I play higher notes (pretty much anything above a middle C) it feels just the slightest bit strained, but the note often still comes out nicely. Is this normal? Will it stop over time as my body gets used to it, or is it a sign I'm doing something wrong?
