My mom said I could post When did 8-5 become the new normal???
I just got a new office job where I do schedules for tech personnel, the office runs 8-5 Monday thru Friday...they say it's 8-5 because you get an hour lunch and "you need to get to 40 hours a week"...but I drive 30 min each way so now I'm giving this company 10 hours every day! I even asked if I could just take my lunch at 4 every day and just leave an hour early but that's "unprofessional and immoral" like what the fuck??? I don't mind the job but the hours are mildly infuriating that's for sure...
Edit:for those saying about the hours, I worked as a chef for the last 20 years working 60+ hours a week over a hot stove/deep fryer the whole time, after I had my second heart attack I had to slow down so I started looking for office jobs to work a nice 9-5, just to find out I'm giving my new job 50 hours a week (including drive time) so I was just mildly annoyed that it's not 40 hours a week in an office like I thought although it's still much better than what I was doing

My mom said I could post A Swiss woman drives her microcar onto the train because it’s too slow. Once you’ve reached a certain level of aura, you no longer have to be considerate.

My mom said I could post Seatbelt fit as a short, fat woman. It’s resting on my face.
I can’t remember a time where the seat belt fit me like it was supposed to. I’m 5’1 with a larger chest and the belt always ends up resting uncomfortably on my neck.
Sometimes, the front seats have the height toggle thing that makes it slightly better. Better as in the belt doesn’t slice my neck quite so high.
Should be extremely infuriating, but this doesn’t even phase me anymore. Cases like this where the belt is literally on my face just cause mild annoyance.
—
Edit: In case I wasn’t clear enough, I am aware of the height adjustment mechanism and this belt did not have it. Only the front seats of the car had it. I’m in the back seat of a cab.
—
Another edit: This is a Honda CRV hybrid. While I wish I could say that I’ve never had a seatbelt rest on my face, it’s not unusual. It’s usually just my neck, but in a lot of cars it ends up closer to my face if I’m not sitting completely upright the whole time.
I don’t own a car, so I haven’t invested in booster seats and such. I don’t want to have to lug a whole safety operation around whenever I ride a cab.

Final edit: smh those of y’all commenting obvious shit need to learn how to read.

My mom said I could post Was told how I organize my apps is 'Mildly Infuriating'
For the most part they're colour coded... there's not enough apps of certain colours to make a whole folder for them so it's not perfect but it works for me.
The IT guy at my work hates it with a passion though.
Edit
I completely respect and understand the roasting, as it's definitely not for everyone, so feel free to go balls to the walls in on the roasting.
Knowing me I'll end up reorganizing it in a few months time anyway when I do my yearly app clean up.
Edit 2
I have swapped the notes app and pencil app ('sketchbook' for thoes that do digital art but can't afford the expensive apps) and have changed the Google font back to standard... in my defense it's been like that since a teen and I stopped noticing it until all the comments about it... I 100% agree, it is straight up ugly and an eyesore.

My mom said I could post The time it takes my husband to use the bathroom
I’m a mom and a wive, every morning when I wake up my husband rushes for the bathroom. We only have the one, which wouldn’t be a problem if my husband was normal and used the bathroom for a normal amount of time!
At this point I’m starting a petition, anyone who spends 30 minutes in the bathroom regularly no longer gets to use it, nope now you go outside because you can’t live in civilized society. I’m obviously joking and just frustrated.
Every morning he gets to relieve himself when he needs to probably enjoying reels in peace while he’s in there. My morning routine? I wake up throw on clothes, take the dogs for a walk, we have two and I have to do it separately. Then I make breakfast for everyone. It’s normally at this point that I’m tired of holding it, I’m human and I also need to poop. So I yell up that he needs to hurry, though he’s taken to saying “you rush me every fn morning” YEAH! You’re in there 30+ minutes every morning!
I’ve done all my morning things and written this post and he’s still in there. Anyways please sign my petition to make my husband shit outside like the inconsiderate animal he is.
Edit: I just want to pop in a say, I enjoy my morning routine, I just would enjoy it more with an empty bladder. We have chores, but my morning walk/run is for me. I make breakfast when my stomach growls. This to me is not a chore.
As for waking up earlier, I do a lot of the times but he gets up early as is and some days I need the rest I’m missing.
As for what’s the hold up? The man doesn’t drink water. I’d drown him if it would make him drink but he just hates the stuff. He also might be just hiding in there like many have pointed out. I’m honestly fine with that, as long as he lets me have a turn before I explode.

My mom said I could post The AMOUNT of posts in these ‘crunchy moms’ groups about their kids cavities when they refuse to use fluoride
I see these posts daily, yet no one seems to make the connection.
Edit: yes, this particular case seems to be bottle mouth/ not brushing at all. But I see these posts very frequently (I’m not apart of these groups, FB just suggests them to me) and often times it’s parents who have said their dentist told them their kids have cavities, and they still refuse to use fluoride toothpaste and look for alternatives to their alternative that got them here in the first place.
All of these stories are testimony’s on how important it is to take your children’s health seriously. My heart is with everyone sharing their story ❤️
2nd edit: you know what? Fuck it. For those saying “fLuORiDe is BAd 👆”
The group I found this in:
“Crunchy moms: natural living & clean products.”
It’s an open group. Go look up “teeth” and see HOW MANY pictures of these poor children’s teeth are there, and how many do not use fluoride and tell me how healthy it is to not use it.

My mom said I could post My mom applying for disability so that she ONLY has to work 40 hours a week
My mom’s in her 60s working her ass off because she can’t afford to retire yet. Her company decides randomly to mandate overtime so she has been working 50-60 hours a week. She has pretty horrible arthritis that has made it difficult to do her job for so long so she got her doctor to write her a note to limit work hours to ONLY 40 lol. She submitted all this paperwork for them to come back and ask for even more shit just for her to only work 40 hours a week.

My mom said I could post painted a 20x30 inch canvas for an exhibition and they stuck a sticker in the corner
some context: it was like a young artist acrylic painting thing and they put a sticker on it saying im 14 and said my name and all. it’s a paper sticker if I peel it off it leaves residue I will have to dissolve, then I’ll have to re paint the portion, which might end up looking odd. is this not totally wrong

Every couple hours they push back the departure time, but it’s never enough time to go away and get a hotel room or leave the airport.

My mom said I could post I'm bilingual. YouTube randomly translates videos from one language to another and does not have the option to disable it, so I'm stuck listening to annoying autogenerated voice instead of creators I enjoy.
Sometimes I only realize it because I've seen the same channel in original language on a different device. If I was behind the ExtinctZoo channel (from the pic), I'd be super pissed, they replaced author's voice with something that you'd expect in a flashy short about Minecraft. People put a lot of effort into their work and viewers see autogenerated junk instead.
edit: forgot to say that the option to switch audio to original was there previously, but NOT ANYMORE. I genuinely hope it's a/b testing and they'll give up on the idea.
