Don't tip through the app as companies are very bad about actually paying those out to their employees.

Xenocides posted:The family seems to hate him already and I have a suspicion the Is this what you meant to say? I don't think the funeral family knew about the wedding. You might be right that the family already doesn't like him, because at least going by the text the OP didn't really do anything wrong, it's just a lovely situation. His girlfriend jumped pretty quickly to anger at him for simply realizing aloud that the two things are on the same day, but she's grieving so who knows where that comes from exactly. He missed an easy good response to her asking whether he'd rather be at a wedding, you're supposed to say you'd rather there were no funeral to go to and move on once you've made it clear that you're going to the funeral. I don't really think there's a way to go to the wedding that day without being an rear end in a top hat unless the girlfriend wants to go too. It sucks because even if the relationship isn't that serious or doesn't lead to marriage, you can't leave her or the funeral to go to your good friend's wedding. There's even a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode about this.

That is just terrible random timing with the wedding, mixed with grief emotions. When my dad died a year ago one of my cousins couldn't make it because his fiancee had just lost a relative, and another cousin went to a funeral in the morning for her husband's uncle (...I think, there was a lot of information going on) before driving all day to make it to our evening memorial service. People do what they've gotta do, and we were more focused on being thankful for the ones who made it than hating the ones who couldn't.

Thinking there's any chance of going to the wedding if he wants to stay with his gf. Not realising the relationship is already toast, like hell he has a future with his gf when her family are happy to use him as a punching bag. But yeah the going to the bathroom to post on reddit while his gf has the biggest crying episode yet is tv sitcom level stuff.

My boyfriend (27m) has a phobia of beans and won't let me (27m) eat them, is he being unreasonable?quote:The title says it all really. I've been with my boyfriend for about two years now, and since we got together I've known about his phobia of beans. He explained to me that he can't stand the sight of them, and just seeing them on someone else's plate is enough to make him heave. Because of that, I've never eaten beans while I've been around him.

AITA for deglazing my skillet with white wine when making dinner for an ex-alcoholic? My husband and I have known Jessica since college (about 10 years), and her husband Tim since they met (about 5 years), so we're really good friends. When they started dating, Tim was still drinking alcohol. He didn't drink it to the point of loving up his life, but he would drink almost every day, and it started to affect his health, so 3 years ago he stopped drinking all together. Anyway, we all had dinner at our place, and while my husband and I were in the kitchen, putting dishes away and taking out dessert, Jessica came to help us. On the counter, she saw a bottle of white wine, looked a bit confused and asked "didn't you have red wine at dinner?" (Tim told us ages ago that he doesn't mind if we have alcoholic drinks in his company). I said that we did, I just used a bit of white wine to deglaze my skillet while cooking. She immediately started shouting stuff like what the gently caress is the matter with me, putting wine in an alcoholic's dinner. I said I used the tiniest amount and the heat was so high that the alcohol evaporated. She wouldn't stop shouting, so her husband came to the kitchen as well, and she told him what happened. He seemed confused so I asked him if he'd tasted any alcohol in the dinner, and he said no. Jessica said it doesn't matter that he didn't taste it, it was still there. In the end, they left. I texted her the next day to say I was sorry, and that I didn't realize it would be such a problem since you can't actually taste it, but that in the future, I won't use wine when cooking. She texted me that her husband felt sick after dinner and she doubts they will be coming over to our place again. That was the last thing she told me. My husband thinks she might be lying about Tim being sick because he thinks we'd already had the same dinner once before, but neither one of us can remember. Regardless of that, we're not sure if it was an rear end in a top hat thing to use wine when cooking for someone who is sober.

SilvergunSuperman posted:What does that matter? Can they not read? I may be mistaken, but I believe that means that uber eats drivers don't know whether they've been tipped until an hour afterwards. Which means the guy's justification of "they're being lazy because they've already been tipped" is not even possible. Personally I think he already believes they're lazy and don't deserve three bucks and is looking for an excuse but who knows, he may just be stupid.

Sandwich Anarchist posted:You know weddings are planned months in advance, unlike funerals, right? Yes, that was a typo but I could see mom in this scenario putting the funeral where the wedding already was. In a darker take she timed the poisoning of her husband to try to ruin her daughter’s relationship as a side-benefit but that seems unlikely.

Ooof, he was the best man too, that makes it even shittier. Having unexpectedly lost my father and having been a bit mad with grief at the time, I still think the gf was a bit overdramatic, and the mom was a bitch, and that they could have had the funeral on Fri or Monday. Then again I have the emotional depth of a teaspooon so what the gently caress do I know

The sauce was black and in a vodka bottle. Some folks just want to start poo poo.

If seeing a bottle that previously held alcohol used for something else or learning that there was a tiny bit of white wine in a sauce, but not enough to taste sends someone over the edge, they were about to fall off the wagon anyway and looking for an excuse.

Problem Sleuth posted:gently caress this guy. They don't get the tip until an hour after the delivery is completed. They're not being lazy because you already tipped them, you're just an unreasonable rear end in a top hat on the one hand - I used to drive for Doordash and they make it pretty clear if you don't go up to the door you're not completing the delivery. You're not supposed to be making people go outside unless you absolutely can't get in. on the other hand, parking and going to the door in what was mostly apartment buildings or complexes took a crazy amount of time for a job where I just barely made minimum wage and where 95% of the time people don't tip bc they already feel like they're paying a bunch for the delivery fee, and I was a sucker for being as devoted and kind as I was. I should have made more people loving walk for it like all these other drivers have figured out - just get the food out of your hands ASAP so you can take another run and maximize profits. It's not worth it to go 'above and beyond' as a delivery person. EDIT: also getting a parking ticket vaporizes your profits for the day so it's not worth the risk.

In the comments it's revealed that wine lady's boyfriend regularly poors himself entire glasses of vanilla extract claiming to love the taste. She hasn't figured out vanilla extract is 35% ABV. He also uses lots of Listerine.

goethe.cx posted:The hell? Pretty sure nice restaurants use wine in cooking too and it doesn’t cause anyone to relapse When I lived in Germany, I couldn't enjoy anything with cream in it like cakes or donuts. It all tasted like cleaning fluid to me. It took me a long time to realize there was alcohol in the creams. No one else seemed to notice, but I don't drink, so the taste is very noticable to me apparently. I have never noticed something tasting like alcohol if it's cooked off. I hope that a lot of these stories end up with people pulling up out of their spiral of stupidity in the end. Edit: I wonder how many people trying showing their Reddit threads to the involved parties when they get a NTA ruling.

The ex alcoholic didn't have a problem, the ex alcoholics wife who is trying to keep his poo poo together had the problem. I can understand that, the whole protective thing, because he's always going to WANT to drink and if my experience of alcoholics is true, any excuse at all can bring about a relapse.

ScentOfAnOtaku posted:I'd say it was a hard decision, all the way up to them acting like assholes about it. Yeah I would have told the mom to stop taking her anger out on me and bringing her daughter into it because I’m not “happy” to go to a funeral (...?). And if they acted like assholes about it and still told me to leave I’d assume I’m single at that point. Because there’s no real coming back from the daughter convincing herself that I’m a giant turd for having an “oh no” moment when hearing I get to cancel major year-spanning once in a lifetime plans to go to a funeral.

If you're cooking coque au vin or something then yes you'll have a considerable portion of alcohol left over but throwing a teaspoon of wine into a hot pan isn't really going to leave any alcohol behind. If she hadn't made a big deal over it then he wouldn't have even known that alcohol had touched the pan because ultimately there wasn't a detectable amount left in the food, a fact that he even acknowledged
