Just pandering and nothing more. Hire people who are most qualified for the job and not based on their gender or skin color.

Subway has terrible subs though compared to a lot of other sub places. Jersey Mikes is my current favorite if I can find one. Any local deli can be good too.

I heart my local subway because they call me the pickle lady.
Their pickles are the best!

Quiznos used to be so good. Back when they, you know, existed outside of Denver.
That is the problem, Blizzard was not doing that. They were IRL boosting friends and people who participated in the fratboy culture and abuse.

Dare I say ācultā.
Iām not sure what else to call this mess of people who are falling for conspiracy theories, believing that white men are being oppressed, etc.

Jersey Mikeās is a million times better than Subway. In fact, I just had Jersey Mikeās a few days ago. Their Italian sub so so good.

I always get extra pickles and jalapenos on my Subway sandwiches.

Most political ideologies, that includes Conservatism and Progressivism, seem very cultish.

Not relevant to the thread, but I kind of love when you become a restaurant regular and they greet you warmly and it kind of feels like a sort ofā¦second family? Obviously not that far, but kind of that feeling. The Mexican place I order from knows me very well and has left very kind messages on my deliveries.

Thatās when I never go back to a restaurant. Ever. Iād rather die than think that people at restaurants remember me and know my order.
It gives me social anxiety hives.
They donāt need a chief officer to break up frat parties in hiring, you get an HR department that does itās job properly and doesnāt work directly with the teams they are hiring people in to. It also isnāt right to call the rot coming out of a subway subs.

I enjoy familiarity as well. It makes the experience so much better.

Iām really fond of Togos, but for some reason itās like they dump half a cup of water on the bread out here. Itās always SOGGY and compressed, I donāt get it. Subway is okayish in a pinch, Potbelly is pretty good, I really miss Boston Market since moving away from an area that had them, and I really loved a chain called Which Wich, but they likewise donāt have them near where I am now.
I have pretty major anxiety too. I find it helpful if they remember me so I donāt have to talk or interact. They just ask me if I want the usual and I nod. I went to a store today and a staff member saw me before I got inside, ran back in with my order and brought it to the car. I said all of 4 words I think. Two being āthank youā

Funny I have worked in tech with 29 somethingās until a few years ago. Now I work with 17 - 20 year olds daily. Even helped 6 kids now between 25 and 40 figure the world out despite all their individual challenges the same actions usually fixed their various problems
Btw been using variations of the internet since the 80 s and cable Internet since the mid 90s. Havenāt used cash since the 90s eitherā¦.
Everyone thinks the world is completely different when a lot of times the changes are very minor, especially when you have the experience to actually see things happen and just just speculate on what you believe or what someone else tells you is happening.
Prob not to recommend meds but my doc prescribed klonopin as an as needed medicine for anxiety when my ptsd gets triggered. 1 helps and I am a big man 6ā3 and 280 lbs. lasts 8 hours too. Be careful asking your doc though because it is addictive - itās why I only take 1 in extreme circumstances

An old place I used to go to when I was still spending time out and about had a spot just for me and would bring out my usual meal before I even asked. And as someone who rarely if ever changes her orders, it made me very happy. Didnāt have to say much and got to just chill out.
Iāve recently been going out more and this breakfast place downtown has this really friendly vibe and the patrons all seem to be regulars because theyāre all just chatting away together. I donāt know if itās because I grew up in suburbia Hell where I rarely saw the same people because the schools stretched out over many districts or not but the small town vibe kind of resonates with me.
