Did you do anything to check if the order taker heard you correctly?
They usually repeat it back, plus it's printed on the receipt lol.

My orders are rarely messed up, and I eat fast food often enough. I'm pretty good at ordering, and if you don't think that makes a difference then you've clearly never worked order taking in fast food.
Half the time I order an item "fresco" at Taco Bell (which means no cheese, no sour cream) there's cheese on it. There's no ambiguity there. That's just the employees being idiots.

Also, as a lifelong vegetarian/vegan, it's gotten a lot better recently but for most of my life i'd order something with "no meat" on it and it'd come with meat. It's an easy job, people are just dumb.

Pay them 15 with a full work schedule and I guarantee you that'll be a tip-top ktichen.
A lot of fast food in CA starts at like 12 IIRC, and that is definitely not the case.

Also, 15 in Los Angeles and 15 in bumfuck nowhere Oklahoma are VERY different wages.

Average for the county is 45k.
https://www.cde.ca.gov/fg/fr/sa/cefavgsalaries.asp

Beginning Teacher Annual Salary
ADA 4,000
$52,670

And the ones around here are (obviously or I wouldn't be posting about it) higher than that. You don't even live in this state or work in education, step back lmao.

And yeah, no shit teachers in backwater states make less, which is a problem. Move to a decent state I guess.

I know how it works. One of my exes was barely making anything before being tenured. After tenured she was 70k.

Nobody is paying that much for someone who just graduated for tacking unless they live in a super expensive place like nyc.
You clearly don't or you'd know that secondary school is not college and that college professors don't need a credential. Jesus fuck.

No they dont. Non tenured college teachers make about 40K.
Secondary school teachers in the local district start at 59k. Sorry to burst your bubble buddy.
College instructors don't need a credential, so not sure why you even thought I was talking about that (other than you just having no fucking idea how education or academe works)

It's just a popular term among the alt-right and stuff to refer to LGBT people/other minorities/even art they don't like. Like I said, i'm just instantly suspicious of it but it may well be perfectly innocent in some contexts

The most annoying part of that shit was things like the gamers are dead articles...if these idiots just remembered "keep it simple stupid" that shit wouldnt have been weaponizble. Your audience isnt your journalism/creative writing professor and it isnt your peers its a group of people 10-20 years younger than you, explain what you mean without the critical analysis lens and people actually will understand and more than likely agree. Then you got people telling other people they are bad because they like X thing instead of explaining why X thing may be bad....
Yeah they definitely deserved to be harassed and targeted with death threats for using uhh *checks notes* very basic metaphors in their writing.

That's because after you climax if you pay attention; under your arms start to have a much stronger, unique smell. This is a bonding chemical to make a girl feel even more closely bonded to you and likely fall asleep with you after sex. When no female is present your body gets depressed psychologically and you feel like crap. Especially if you do it early in the morning or mid-day.
