Spanglish doesn’t mean 50/50 lol. And the “-ado” is absolutely pronounced the way they say it in Spanish, like dorado, tirado, girado, cerrado.
You’re making up random rules and limiting pronunciations in order to make this shower thought true, and it just doesn’t hold up to closer inspection.
“life, uh, finds a way”
You hear it as a joke when you’re young, but it’s not til you’re old that you realize “you are what you eat” is literal.
Ah I didn’t see that little spiral graph. I agree with you for anyone who keeps their knives sharp. But if you’re trying to cut thin slices off a roast and have to choose between a bread knife and a dull chef’s knife, I’d likely go for the bread knife. That said, I don’t know they intended it that way, and it totally could have just been an error.
I don’t see this suggesting a bread knife for meat, but a dull serrated blade beats a worn plain edge for any purpose. And produce is anything grown like fruit and veg.
As a chef, the only inaccuracy I see here is that bamboo cutting boards are good for knives. They are a great, cheap, sustainable option, but the silica content makes bamboo incredibly hard, and it will dull your blades faster than wood or plastic cutting boards.
I’m this way 100%. Feels like I’ll be able to do it better and be less distracted by questions if I get to know something from the ground up, and just doing it a certain way because everyone agrees it works that way is never satisfying/I never feel like I can trust that completely.
In the US, servers and restaurant staff tip like 100% of the time they go out because they know how important it is with our current pay laws, and they know that the waiter expecting that tip isn’t the one making the laws or who deserves to be punished for them. So that tip is almost always going to someone else who also tips.
Btw, don’t bother arguing with me that tipping is wrong so we shouldn’t do it. I agree that it’s wrong, but abstaining punishes the wrong people (servers, not owners or policymakers). So instead of writing a comment, write a letter to you local govt to eliminate sub-minimum wages for tipped workers, and keep tipping poor waiters and drivers til they change something.
Can’t comprehend what? Proceeds to focus on a single element of the photo and contextualize it within American culture
If you like food/eating, consider culinary courses and see if you like it as a discipline (just one example).
I was in a very similar boat for years, and then I realized that at least 50% of the issue wasn’t not having an interest, it was failing to see the massive variety of jobs out there and how some can relate to sources of joy I already appreciate. And I was assuming that if I wanted to follow a passion, I had to be the best at it and ready/excited to do a bunch of unrelated things to get to the top.
Pursuing a passion doesn’t mean starting a business, being the best at something, or achieving a goal you’ve had since 1st grade. It might be realizing that you like going to the beach a lot, and then seeing if town hall is hiring for Parks and Rec groundskeepers. Maybe it turns out you love the community garden plots you end up working on, too.
Last note, it may be that you have to try a few jobs in order to find out what you do and don’t like about each, and therefore what you’re looking for in your ultimate career. This is another good reason to lower the stakes on your choice–it’ll be just as helpful to figure out what you don’t want to do with the first few experiments, and it may leave you with a constellation of job characteristics that point you in a specific direction. You find out you love spreadsheets and finding patterns in data, awesome, they need you anywhere. You find out you hate it and want to work completely offline? There’s a massive shortage of trade workers. All info is good info here, and remember it’s never too late for a pivot. Good luck!
Idk that’s pretty obviously a shadow from my perspective
Depends on your shoe size
I’ve always assumed you pay extra because multiple people have to carry the bag around after you check it, and that’s harder/more dangerous at higher weights.
In warehouses, you gotta go get your lift belt and often a partner if something is over a certain weight, and you aren’t covered by workman’s comp if you just try to do it quickly without those, so it’s a serious hassle.
It’s not functioning as a thank you, it’s honestly just an indication that you’re willing to take an extra 5 minutes to do something when the stakes are high.
If you really want the job, how you treat that conversation might be similar to how you treat a client once you’re hired. If you don’t really want the job, or you really don’t want to send a thank you, that’s fine, but with 5 applicants to choose from, wouldn’t they opt for the candidate who put in the best/most work?
I’m not saying it isn’t annoying and transactional and a lot to ask, but as someone who’s applied for hundreds of jobs, the reason to do it still feels clear.

You’re the one who quoted the guy! This is just another quote attributed to Camus about absurdity.
Says the same guy wondering, “should I have a cup of coffee, or kill myself?” (And who’s right about both)
Tbh I want a lot more from my life than the top picture, but I’m more than ok with the place I sleep looking like it. Especially if it means I’ve got more to spend (money or timewise) on my specific priorities.
