I'm in kind of a shitty situation at work here
1 / 2
tl;dr
>I am the only employee besides the manager
>there is no air conditioning in summer / no heat in winter
>I work all day by myself on Saturday (manager doesn't come in at all. We're open 10+ hours saturday)
>I work more hours than the manager a week but obviously get paid less
>I work between 35-40 hours a week for "part-time"
>I need time off to get shit done but i cant get any time off
Originally I worked 3 days during the week + saturday, which was fine. I was going to school and studying. The other guy that was working here left, and the manager asked me if I could work everyday.
It's been almost a year and he has not hired a new person. I've told the manager time and time again to hire someone else but he has not done this.
I know it is not my decision, but when I'm alone in a store and get 10 customers waiting for me to help them, it gets fucking nuts. There is literally a line out the door. Sometimes it takes up to 30 minutes for me to help just one customer, and another 9 are still waiting for something - plus it's not always the same thing. I work in a third party pack / ship/ print shop, so could you imagine one person wants me to pack something worth $1000 while someone else wants to print 1000 posters or something and needs it done in an hour? Impossible - but happens every week!
I've only gotten one day off within 2 years - I had to ask 6 months in advance for it. The manager went away TWICE - January and February, leaving me by myself for 4 weeks total in the store. Opening and closing. Counting the money. etc.
I ask for a day off? "I need to see."
The guy takes off once a week and doesn't even show up on Saturdays. I could not go to work at all on Saturday and he wouldn't know about it since our security cameras dont even fucking work.

2/2
I need to make appointments.
I need to go shopping for new clothes ( because I'm trying to get a new job in my career field)
I need to get new glasses - haven't gotten new ones in 4 years
I need to clean up my house.
I need to do laundry.
I need to take my pets to the vet.
I need to replace my lost drivers permit.
I need to do a lot of work around the house because we're getting everything renovated
I need to practice driving during the week and not only on Sundays
I can't do any of this because I work 6 days a week.
It takes an hour and a half to get to work, and I work 5-6 hours a day, then another hour and half to get back. My hours are in the middle of the day till the evening - so by the time I want to do half the things after work, stores are closed.
If I wanted to do anything before work, I wouldn't be able to because I take public transportation and everything else I need to do is far away in the opposite direction
Basically
I need to work LESS so I can get other shit done.
I've worked for 3 years straight now. No vacation. No days off except Govt. Holidays. No time to do anything for myself. I haven't bought anything for myself either in 3 years. No games, no clothes, never went out to parties, never went out to see movies, never hung out with friends.
Literally wake up -> go to work -> go home -> go to sleep -> dont get anything done because exhausted from work or too late to do anything.
Can't change my hours either, the manager wants to get out of work early so he can go do things so I'm stuck with the late shift.
---
I'm very close with the owner of the business ( not the manager) and I've spoken about this to him before. All he says is "tell *manager*" because he makes all the decisions.
That doesn't work.
I don't want to quit because the owner of the business would be an excellent reference on my resume for future jobs. I just don't know what to do.
>>
>>17260901
Aren't there any legal issues, that you could bring up? Where I'm from, this would not be legal and the manager would be forced to hire more people.
>>
Tell the owner that if they don't do something to intervene, you will be forced to quit. Really lay it on the line that the working conditions are unacceptable and that if something isn't done, you will be forced to walk out (and I assume the owner will realise that basically means the store will be unattended and will require new staff that need training and shit that will be a massive pain.)
Take no bullshit, if the owner tries to farm it off to the manager again you say back "I quit. Can I get a reference from you for my next job?"
Either you get the reference, or the owner gets shit done and asks you to stay.

So I'm dating this girl for about 2 years now, I've struggled in the past with what the idea of "love" is with this girl, just to give context. We'd broken up (for a short period of time) just as I'd got a new job at a call center and before we got back together I formed a crush on a girl from my work. Problem is, the crush has turned into infatuation and I can't stop thinking about her. This is probably caused by the fact that we've hung out more often over the past few months and my idiotic self finds the small details in how she acts to mean that she feels the same way. I'm no stranger to being out in the friendzone so I figured that this is what's happened. But I can't stop seeing her like this.
It's getting to the point where I'm fighting with my girlfriend and feeling very little because that way I might have a chance with this other girl. However, I know that this whole situation is ludicrous. My higher mind knows that I'm just being an idiot and that I should stay with my girlfriend because I am legitimately happy (I think) with her. But I still have these feelings for the girl at work.
I basically just need someone to plainly say I'm being an idiot. I know that I'm friend zoned by the girl from my work, and I shouldn't be disappointed by that.

Ever seen 500 days of summer
>movie about some poor fool who believes in love
>finds 'perfect' girl
>projects his need for hollywood romance
>gets girl, still not happy
>tries to mold girl to answer his emotional/hormonal fits
>girl leaves
Because your hormones are working you hard (infatuation) doesn't mean you shouldn't be thinking rationally.
>>
Same thing happened to me last year. I was completely smitten. Then the girl turned out to be lesbian. I moved on and am still happy with my gf. It'll pass, it just means your dick still works or whatever
>>
>>17260867
I've been thinking that maybe I'm just incapable of being happy in a relationship? It just seems like I still havent found someone who I'd want to stick with for the rest of my life. And I'm starting to feel like I'm the Summer of my current relationship because I'm not sure. Thanks man.

I was downstairs and happened to see one of my sister's bras lying around. So out of curiosity I checked it and she's a fucking 38F!
Now I really want to see her bare tits. Is this normal? (technically she is only my half sister)
If you had a sister with huge tits you'd be curious too right?

Bait thread. Don't answer this troll.
>>
>>17260845
Not worth it. Seriously such a waste of energy, just get a gf and see her tits. Then you can play with them etc.
>>
Why is it a bait thread? What does that even mean?
A guy at my internship is a massive bully/homophobe (I'm gay) and I can't decide if I should report him or if I am just overreacting to "banter".
Common tactics of his are to ask people that he knows are gay for tips on how to have sex with women and then keep pressing them if they refuse to answer to make them feel awkward/distressed. He likes to catcall people as they walk by, sometimes physically touches people to make them uncomfortable or call someone over just to tell them a lewd non-sequiter eg "I'm horny", presumably to make them uncomfortable. He has personally sexually harrassed me by restraining me + grinding up against me until I stabbed him with a pencil and left a few months ago, asking me what position i would use to have sex with a girl and asking me to act out the movement, as well as more pedestrian immaturity like calling things "gay" and people "faggots" in normal conversations.
After I interact with him I feel anxious and a little sick for like a whole day.
Do you think I should tell HR or nah?

I'd report. Never admit that you reported. To anyone but HR that you reported though, just by the jist of what you say, it sounds like this douche is gonna throw a tantrum over it.
Don't be afraid of that though, this is clearly sexual harrassment and most companies have a zero tolerance policy over it because they don't wanna get sued over something like this.
Definitely report though.
>>
Thats a laundry list of shit you shouldn't do in a corporate environment, although because you said you stabbed him and there were no consequences I am going to assume.you don't work at a place w an actual HR department
if you do, this is a no fucking brainer. collect evidence before you report
>>
>>17260837
Sorry for my grammatical mistakes.
I don't want anything. And never did. I am 25 and I didn't accomplished anything. I have no money, no job, and no desire to find some. No desire to live or achieve something. I don't know what to do. Am I just a garbage?

How do I remove these suggestions from Amazon? I'm a closet anime fan and don't want people to see this. I already tried deleting all Amazon cookies and disabling personal advertisements but that only effects ads on other websites.

My brother has confided in me and I told him he was being a parasite for wanting to start taking estrogen
He apparently does not like the feeling of being a guy, or growing into one, and in turn feels he must become a female to achieve happiness
My mother of course tells him she loves him no matter what, etc. but I'm at a loss here

How does that mean being a parasite? What exactly bothers you about this?

Not quite sure what you are asking here. He will mostly still be the same person, just with a different appearance. Hes just not comfortable with how he looks or what he might be in the future and wants to fix it. They will still be your sibling.

Because I'm an asshole who can't assimilate with current year phenomena
It bothers me because you're taking what makes you, you, and altering it completely because you're unhappy about the current situation

Hi guys. I found out something.. disturbing?
A year and a half ago, I was dating this guy. Let's call him Bob. It was kind of a rebound relationship, but not on purpose. I was in a bad place from the relationship before him, and Bob was someone who introduced me to a lot of things - good and bad. We dated for around 7 months. I slept over at his house probably 5 times a week.
We liked drinking. He introduced me to xanax as well. I have constant anxiety problems and the first time he gave me one I felt amazing, and I quickly became addicted.
He would then have me drink and do xanax together, which if you don't know, is the worst combination of drugs. You will completely black out. I have never blacked out or anything like that before this.
About 2 times, I woke up in the middle of him on top of me, inside of me, thrusting. I would get really freaked out and tell him to get the fuck off me, and go back to sleep. I told him that wasn't okay with me, because I wasn't sure if I was unconscious or if I was just blacked out doing and saying things without knowing what I was doing.
Well, I JUST found out from a mutual friend (after me and Bob broke up, we remained friends and we have the same small friend group), informed me that Bob had told him a month ago that one time I was completely unconscious after we were getting fucked up, and he fucked me in my ass and came inside of it.
I feel fucking disgusting and I confronted him and he's apologized but I really want to fucking hit him in the face if I ever see him again. He knows not to show up if I'm around now, but the problem as well is that his sister is one of my friends too. But now it's funny cause everyone except for one person in the group will sit together and talk shit about me behind my back.
"Oh, she wanted it anyway probably."
"She seems like she'd like that."
Etc.
>kills self
tl;dr found out ex raped me in ass while unconscious and everyone is doing the typical blame the victim shit

Getting sick of this shit, man.
>>
>>17260729
Well, yeah, I agreed to do the drugs. I was in a bad place. But a lot of the time he'd kind of be pressuring me to do more and more, and he manipulated me into believing he was doing the same amount as me, but he was just pretending to.

you should press charges so people dont think ur a slut or stop talking to those people thy will only make u feel like shit for the rest of ur life

I'm wondering when my life is going to start to take off. I hear stories of peoples journeys, about how they were bankrupt or basically had nothing and now they've done all these amazing things and they've had all these amazing experiences.
So far my life has just been cycles of working or being NEET.
I don't think there's going to be any crazy opportunities that suddenly appear in front of me, but I wonder when my life will explode and i'll start doing good things
any advice?

Yes...well, I'm currently in school because I thought to myself "well...why not go to school" and now I realize I hate it. There aren't any people in my class and I'm finding it hard to keep going after everyone practically dropped out.
I'm choosing to transfer to the city next term so hopefully things will be different there.
I've been looking for casual work so I can move out but there really isn't anything going around. I don't want to crawl back to my old jobs because I never did fit into those places.
23 btw

Mom has hit a rough spot again.
It seems the Alcoholism and Deflated Ego has come to a point.
I've consulted her since I was a young teen but it seems it's out of my hands at this point.
I know this isn't really /DIY/ material,
but how would YOU go about helping/treating YOUR Mother whilst knowing that you aren't putting her through unworthy programs or simply not letting her put herself out of misery?
I'm personally looking into a co-dependency program..
but how far should I take this?
I'm worried of making the call to put her into a pill testing box but I also can't let her KO on my watch.
sorry if this is the wrong forum,
just wanted to /diy/ (with help).

R9k has a few guys in there looking to help.
YOU can talk to a counselor to see if they can help you help her if she doesn't want outside help.
It is obviously getting to a point where you feel you have to seek outside help through an american cordless tool shilling forum

Hey /adv/,
I haven't been all that bright concerning maths, but that was mainly because I missed a lot of basic stuff you would've learned in grades 8-10 or so, because of puberty and difficult family situation then. Now I realise that for most decent career/education paths, you will need a fairly good knowledge of maths, so I'm trying to catch up on all I've missed. I tried looking into the /sci/ wiki:
https://sites.google.com/site/scienceandmathguide/subjects/mathematics
but i couldn't even understand the basic stuff of stuarts book, because I lack some basic knowledge.
Now, can anybody recommend me some sticky/other guide which I can work through to get on a good starting position? All the stuff before higher education?
It would be REALLY helpful if anyone could give me some links in GERMAN, because I found that we use different terms sometimes, but if you don't have any, English is fine aswell.
Thanks!

i'm in the same position as well.
i've failed differential calculus and analytical geometry due to basic stuff because i was like dennis the menace in my high school/school years.
right now i'm trying to watch lectures as much as i can, seeming as mathematics as a language is something i haven't fully dominated yet.

I'd be interested in that too. Also in german.
OP, i have "algebra für dummies" and "mathematik für dummies". They are pretty good. Maybe start there

I'm 21 years old. There's a girl that I've never been able to get out of my mind since I was 15 years old. We went to high school together, but she transferred a year after we met. After we graduated, she went to college and I enlisted in the military. I'm out now, and she's on summer break from college. I deleted my facebook recently, which was the only way we could communicate. I would really like to see her again even just to have the closure I never got. Is there any way I can go about getting in contact with her without seeming like a creep? Should I even fucking bother?

I need your help /adv/
It's been a few months that my boyfriend insists on making me cum through penetration alone or even "just when he sticks it in". How do I tell him that's absurd and most likely will never happen? No matter how much I enjoy it, I just can't do it, also because we don't even have enough foreplay (5 minutes at MAX) before intercourse, since everytime we have sex I'm always really dry and he has to bruteforce his way through as well.
When I talk to him about this, he just bullies me because I'm not in the 20% of women who can cum during intercourse, and changes the subject linking me other stuff. Today he linked me an article of a pig that played dead to save her owner.
I love him but I don't know how to communicate with him, and he doesn't make an effort to listen either. This is really making me sad. What do I do? I don't want to hurt him

Tell the truth. I would want it if I was in his shoes.

I've been in a similar situation. The guy eventually felt really shitty about himself and cheated on me "cause i wanted to make someone cum just from my dick".
Luckily not all guys are that insecure. Just tell him over and over again that it is not physically possbile for you?
>>
>>17260587
literally every girl needs to rub their own clit during sex to cum. Like, the guy will do the rubbing with their thumb or something while thrustin away but when it comes down to cumming.... the girl needs to be doing it themselves.
Sex is just better that way.
