Most doctors say you can’t drink alcohol on antibiotics. In actual fact there are only a couple that will react badly with alcohol.
The origin of the ‘dont drink’ advices stems back to when sailors used to pick up VD on shore leave. Usually when drunken.
When the navy doctor gave the antibiotics to the sailors they said don’t drink because chances are if they did they would likely have sex and catch more VD before the antibiotics started to work
Food due by dates are constantly switched if they still “look good”. Olive garden was guilty of doing this and so was i. I hated throwing food out. So much waste in the industry.
Banks are creepy AF and the particular one I worked at had software that was able to accurately estimate the amount of assets one has scattered throughout other financial institutions .
Bankers can also see where and when you spend your money using teller-style software. Yes, they can see how many times one hits up the liquor store or casino, or any other place you don’t really want people knowing you’ve been.
Banks really don’t keep that much cash on-site.
Cosmetics:
If you want less-hassle when shopping for makeup, do not visit a department store counter-- they are trained to sell, sell, sell and typically work on a small commission on top of hourly salaries. You’re better off going to Sephora.
You wouldn’t believe the amount of makeup that gets “destroyed”-- old testers, returns, damaged products. If it’s a half-decent retailer, even if it looks a tiny bit used, the product goes in the trash.
Gratis is fuucking awesome. It’s basically when your parent company gives you free full-size gear.
…Also, just please don’t use the testers at a makeup store/counter unless it’s on the back of your hand .
In the uk, at least. When your a care assistant - people assume you spend 8 hours a day bent over wiping arses. There is much more to it than that. You are responsible for them having a good day, not their bowel movements.
And most women were always scared to grab the penis firmly on patients needing a conveen (condom with a hole in the end for a drainage bag) or sticking a catheter in. I always got landed with the job lol.
Satellites are called “birds” in the satellite industry. Also satellites use “zulu” time because there are no time zones in space. This is just GMT. I.e. +0.
Interpreters can only interpret for under an hour before it becomes too exhausting for them. Nobody knows why.
In the Air Force before you end your enlistment or retire you have to sign an actual form that basically says you agree not to sale any secrets to foreign governments or you will be prosecuted.
Very serious ■■■■!
I think it might’ve been a Security Forces or DoD form.
Since I was security monitor I was responsible for making sure that everyone in the squadron who out-processed signed it.
When I was a cook we would sometimes accidentally drop food on the floor when we were preparing someones order. If we dropped something like a steak or a hamburger on the floor we would pick it up and just brush it off with our hands and put it on the plate. We weren’t going to throw away a whole steak just because we dropped it on the dirty, greasy grimy floor!
When I worked in the warehouse at Sears we sold stereos, speakers, TV’s, computers and other electronics. When we were unloading trucks or straightening the warehouse we often accidentally dropped the boxes on the ground. Some electronics were more delicate than others but if you dropped a box you didn’t tell anyone; we still sold it and hoped it wasn’t broken when the customer took it home and opened it.
And at Sears we did a practice that every customer anywhere hates but they couldn’t always tell we did it. When a customer returned an item like a vacuum cleaner or lawn mowers or car seats etc. if it was in the box and still looked good we just taped up the box and sold it as new to someone else.
When I worked at Wendy’s at closing time if there was any food left over that wasn’t sold we would take food home. Also Wendy’s chili has day old hamburger meat in it. Whatever meat that was cooked and not sold was chopped up for the next day’s batch of chili.
Also my managers at Wendy’s were very picky that the store be clean and if a burger was dropped on the floor it was thrown away.
There were times though when the manager wasn’t looking employees would make sandwiches with their bare hands. (We were required to wear gloves).
I worked for the phone company too but when I was hired I signed a contract we couldn’t tell job secrets so…
During WWII my grandfather made a baby with a Japanese woman. Back then the US government wouldn’t allow men to marry I guess Japanese ladies so he had to leave her and the baby behind. My dad is to this day trying to find his brother. He would be my grandfather’s first born.
We had to sign a non-competition agreement that stated that if we quit or were fired we couldn’t work for another company in the same industry for at least a year.
Weird knowledge. I would say the trocar needle that the embalmers use to suck out your guts after death ends right up in the city sewer system. When you take a sip of treated water you may very well be drinking someone’s heart.
