Did you find your coworkers to have a lot of substance abuse problems?

I worked at a large, non-Clear Channel Top 40 station for a couple of years and nearly everyone had an obvious drinking problem that they'd pretend was just "being cool" and "partying". Obviously if you're paid to be at a bar for an event you're going to have a drink or two but these were full-grown adults getting so drunk they'd piss themselves in their sleep and just kinda shrug it off. It turned me off from the whole industry (among other things), which was a bummer because I do enjoy hosting things with a microphone.

Some asexuals are aromantic, some aren't. I dunno what OP is or identified as, but if she was an asexual demiromantic or something it could lead to some internal conflict or at least confusion!

I'd think because people are already more likely to drink to the point of puking on their 21st when it's full price, so if it's half off there's a higher chance of someone getting hurt.

I'm pretty butch and not at all religious. My cousins are Orthodox. I usually try to at least wear sleeves when I visit out of respect, but I've accidentally shown up in a tanktop and shorts before with no issue.

When I cut my hair super short I was a little worried about how they'd react to it. ...Which was silly, because as it turns out, all my cousins have my same haircut under their wigs! Their kids did definitely ask me if I was a guy or a girl last time I visited (since women with short hair and pants aren't really part of their normal lives), but yeah.

It's pretty funny, honestly. Yeah, cover your frizzy brown tangle with a pin-straight blonde wig, that'll show 'em!

I'm only ordering from places where I know people who work there who can vouch for the restaurant taking proper precautions. Otherwise, hell naw.
