You don't take a day off for the cold because you're sick, you take the day off because you're contagious and you don't want to get everyone else sick. If someone wants to tough it out through an injury, that's on them. Anyone who tries to tough it out through a transmittable virus is an rear end in a top hat. This. I called my serving job just before the FT place fired me, told them I intended to come in, but heads up because I'm not on top of my game and I am visibly sick. They told me to hold on, called back an hour later and told me to get some rest. Sondheim posted:Seems to be going around this season. Adequately staffed, my place runs with 10 servers, 8 support staff, and 3 bartenders for an average 380 covers/night. The nice thing about sports bars is with everything being frozen or deep-fried, standard entree time is 10 minutes and it's nearly impossible to hit even an hour wait for an entree. You guys fired those calloffs for their less than 24/48/72 hours notice right? I just finished filling out my unemployment additional info, including a brief but detailed statement on what led up to last Friday. Even if I don't get approved, if this gets to corporate I'm going to be able to see the hellfire raining down from the view of my apartment.

Secret Spoon posted:Are we talking about an old sci fi movie right now? What is happening in this thread? Soylent is a meal replacement beverage, advertised as a "staple meal", available in both liquid and powdered forms. Its creators state that Soylent meets all nutritional requirements for an average adult.[4] It was first created and tested by software engineer Rob Rhinehart as a self-experiment in nutrition. Subsequently, the powdered version of Soylent was developed into the first product line of the company Rosa Labs, who currently markets and sells the formulation. Rosa Labs states that the current formulation is based on recommendations of the Institute of Medicine[5] and that Soylent meets the current Food and Drug Administration requirements to be sold as a food.[6] Rosa Labs also states that Soylent includes all of the elements of a healthy diet, without excess amounts of sugars, saturated fats, or cholesterol.[7] a tech.0 solution to the stagnant marketplace of eating some motherfucking vegetables

That sounds super dumb. Although most of the people around my age have no clue how to cook so I guess it's not surprising.

Um what? I'm always up for some man-and-his-dog hilarity, but that's not remotely an enjoyable piece of food writing -- it's a few not funny lines about crackers. You could replace the crackers with loving anything. - A pigeon is not a bad cracker by any stretch of the imagination. Master spreading cheese on one without breaking it and you’re in for a very good snack sesh. - Your mom I can really get down with. Great texture. Sturdy. She snap off in my mouth—it’s love. A+ cracker in my book. - Veggie burgers? I never did get the love for these compressed discs of sawdust. The shape irritates me. Plenty of other options. Oh — very great with peanut butter somehow. - Now, Crayola crayons I need to be really careful around. Don’t hand me a box thinking you’ll get it back with crackers inside. Love to luxuriate in the crumbs in mah bed.

Please excuse the intrusion of my manchild opinion. Serious talk, you're not getting all of your nutrients from soylent because there's a lot more going on in terms of your body absorbing nutrients from food then just the main vitamins and minerals themselves. This is also why those one a day vitamins are junk. There's also the fact that soylent has more grams of fat than protein per serving, which, you know, is generally not the greatest thing for health. Guess that's to be expected from something whose primary ingredient is canola and sunflower oil powder.

It's over. Unless I hosed something up (likely because i'm getting "tomorrow-is-my-only-day-off-wasted" at the moment) that's 4266 reuben items total. Last year was just above 1000 and 500+ came from Friday alone. That was the record we beat on Monday when we were blindsided by demand, and bested at least twice later in the week. No one cares but I'm sharing anyway because tonight was a normal Monday and we only had two BOH so everything was harder than it needs to be and I'm loving exhausted so gently caress it I'm venting cdc your av/title loving rules

Why is this happening? Instead of buying something retarded like soylent, can't you just make your own shakes with some rolled oats, milk, quark or a scoop or two of whey and some berries and fruit? That is what i did when I wanted to add some calories to my normal diet when I trained six times a week. Throwing that in a blender in the morning doesn't take more than a minute.

Well, I'm a legal analyst for a government agency, so sadly there is a lot less food lying around where I work. Working hours and salary make up for it compared to the restaurant industry though, so I shouldn't complain.

That is what i did when I wanted to add some calories to my normal diet when I trained six times a week. Throwing that in a blender in the morning doesn't take more than a minute. This is what I've been doing for the past month or so. Whey, oat powder, potassium and some other stuff. Rolled oats work better nutritionally, but chewing my way through a few cups of vanilla-flavored oats is a miserable experience. It isn't perfect but c'mon for a cost breakdown of $3/day I can get most everything I need in my diet, then supplement that with some snacking on fruits/veggies/whatever. I would never push it on anyone, because it absolutely isn't for everyone, but it works quite well for me. The savings alone is great given that I'm paying 100% of my college classes up front. On top of that, I've tried eating properly to make gains with my lifting in the past, and I could not keep up without eating myself to the point of discomfort multiple times a day. I did end up making entirely homemade burritos last night and it was a great changeup, but I also have a lot of free time this week until I move into FT at my other job.

Don't get me wrong, both places offer a great selection of incredibly delicious food, but nutritionally speaking the options are/were very limited. Ensure has existed for decades and is FDA approved and 100% medically safe for about the same amount of $. Soylent is literally a tech-nerd fetish with amazing marketing by catering to people who think its Food 2.0 and don't realize actual heavily regulated and controlled products like it already exist. Also, generally meal replacement shakes are designed for a single meal, not an entire diet. The creator of Soylent has literally depopulated his gut flora from a Soylent only diet so if you have any health concerns then Soylent 3x a day and barely any actual food is a really bad loving idea.

Well ok then, your "allergy" can't be that serious. Or the GM obsessing over poultry allergy because a relative has it.
