Always be vague. Say I think they’re in today or not until later. If they press say it’s company policy not to give out the schedule. Most companies do have this and even if they don’t how would a stranger know. Don’t give out specifics, they can get people injured or even killed.
At my last job someone came up and asked when “Sarah” was working next. I didn’t tell him and then texted her a description, turns out he was an abusive ex who had been stalking her. Don’t do this shit please.
Do NOT say anything along the lines of “they’re not in today” or “not until later” because you are confirming that this is somewhere the person in question can be found. NEVER confirm anything!
My old boss told us a story of how, years before when she was a fairly new manager (I’m talking decades, she’s 64 right now), there was a man who came in and asked for an employee by name and said he was her uncle. She told him the employee’s shift started in a coule hours. He waited the entire time for her, and when she came in, he assaulted her and bashed her face into the counter. My boss saw everything. She can’t recall what he said, but he kept screaming until someone threatened to call the police.
She told me that story after a man came in and asked for when an employee, who recently quit, would be coming in. I told him she doesn’t work here anymore and he said to me “Okay, well I’m her dad so if you see her tell her I’ll be across the street at the gas station.” He left and my boss IMMEDIATELY came out and scolded me for it, then told me that story.
She gave me some advice on what to say or do in that situation:
Regardless of if the customer know the employee’s name, description, or daily (not hourly) schedule, even if they look like the same race and claim to be family, you NEVER confirm the employee’s existence.
The only exceptions are if the employee tells you themself they’re expecting someone to come in for them (ASK FOR A DESCRIPTION OF THE PERSON), and if you personally know who they are in relation to the employee. When anyone I know has to come in because I asked them to come in, I describe what they look like and what they usually wear. I go into deep descriptions, even including how they walk.
You could literally save a life, guys. Don’t blindly trust your gut either and think “But they LOOK innocent” or “But they said ______” because that can result in someone getting severely hurt, or killed.
I know I joked on this post before but seriously
Just say its against federal law and you cant give out that info without risk of termination - this will get 99% off your back the first time
“I have no idea who you’re talking about”
i have certain ptsd triggers because past coworkers didn’t know this
one of my current coworkers needed to get a new phone number because someone was giving her number out to customers
just last weekend, a friend’s boyfriend was stalking her because her coworker gave him her schedule and she spent the entire day terrified
do not give personal information out without explicit consent from the person who will be impacted by it
Do any other american high schoolers have intense survivor’s guilt and trauma with school shootings even though they weren’t at your school?
Like. A laser tag place opened geared towards teenagers and it got no business, we tried to enjoy it but when someone pointed a laser machine gun at me and I instinctively dropped behind the nearest wall and reached to turn off my phone I cried, I wasn’t the only one. The announcements system turns on at an unexpected time and everyone holds their breath until they say something besides “locks, lights, out of sight,” nobody even jokingly pops chip bags anymore, a door slammed really loud during a class change and everyone dropped and ran. Everyone cries during drills, even the toughest ranch kids. Every drill comes with a full day of teachers crying and telling us that they love us all so much and will die for us, and every kid in every class looking around wondering who would I die for? Who would die for me? You walk to the bathroom and wonder every second if it happens right now, where will I go? You test supply closet doors to see which ones are unlocked, you memorize which furniture in the teachers’ lounge your English teacher says is light enough to barricade a door with. The fire alarm goes off and nobody moves, instead you wait for gunshots—it a trap? You stand with a group of freshmen and realize that you’re the oldest, you know you’ll have to die for them. You forget your ID tag and worry that now the police won’t be able to tell your parents if you’re safe, or not safe. Your stats teacher has a baseball bat by the door, your math teacher keeps a stapler under each desk to throw, your drama teacher asks who will be willing to stand by the non-locking door with the Shakespearean swords. Your yearbook teacher tells you don’t worry about breaking a camera because you heard about the kids who died holding them. You don’t use the bathroom during classes because you don’t want to be the only target to shoot at. You keep your phone on silent 24/7 because you worry the one time you forget will be when you get your whole US History class killed. You have a snap saved with your class schedule and school and full name to send in an instant to your internet friends so they know if you were on that wing, you have a note saved with the things you want your mom to know and the things you’re sorry for. At the age of 12 I was told I needed to know who I would die for and that it was okay if it was nobody, that was my decision to make. School shootings control us more than adults and non-Americans could possibly imagine and nobody moves to change anything unless we’re actively screaming for it. Have you considered we’re too scared?
holy shit
I was a substitute teacher last year in the city I live in. I had to quit, but not because the kids were rough or because I felt like I wasn’t able to do enough. I quit because we went into lockdown and there was nothing I could do. No plans were left for me except for a little laminated sheet of paper that said “lock the door”. No way for me to lock the door because most schools don’t give substitutes keys. I did not even know the names of the students in my class. If someone were to hurt them, i wouldn’t know their name to tell the police. These third graders told me where they hid, telling me about how they push a bookshelf in front of the door. It ended up being just a drill- but I wasn’t told that. All the other teachers were told that though emails, but I didn’t have an email. It took everything in me to not cry and breakdown in front of these 8 year olds. Once the day was over, I wrote out a note to the teacher lettering her know my experiences and I sent an email to my supervisor. Nothing changed.
I always started my day in each new school I went to figuring out where I would hide 25 children, where the exits are, what could I do. I did that before the lockdown experience I had.
This is wrong. I shouldn’t have to do this.
my old high school is directly about a mile, maybe less, behind my house, not much seperating us but a street one building and woods, but basically, its not very far away. for the past almost 2 years ive been out of school, my blood runs cold everytime i hear sirens in that direction.
I am from the first generation of routine shooting survivors (first generation, jesus christ that sounds so wrong). There was a shooting at the middle school when I was in fourth grade. 1998–yes, even predating Columbine, though not by much.
It followed me the entire remaining eight years of my school career. And yes, it’s true–someone “pranked” the school in my junior year by calling in a bomb threat every week for almost three months, and the school responded by moving us all to the gym. I finally walked up to the principal one day during one of these incidents and said “Mr. S? I don’t want to be a pain. But we’ve had four of these in three weeks and if there really is a bomb by now they’ll know exactly where to put it.” I was envisioning it in the bleachers just under my legs. He looked me right in the eyes, and he must have seen the haunting there that said “this girl knows nothing in specific but way too fucking much in general,” because he immediately picked up the mic we kept for assemblies and said “first two rows, form orderly lines out the doors, toward the soccer field, please” and evacuated us before I even had a chance to get back to my seat. They walked us up to the middle school (which was on the same property–they almost adjoined) through a driving rain, no coats, no nothing, and put us in their cafeteria while the bomb squad came. From that point onward anytime there was a threat they had to fully evacuate both schools, just in case.
It changes the way you think, and not for the better.
I am 30 years old. Why are there babies young enough to be mine still suffering this????
my first semester of college, we had a lockdown drill. nothing special, completely routine, but my instructor was fairly new and had absolutely no idea what to do beyond, as others above have mentioned, "lock the door". once it became horrifyingly obvious that she legitimately did not know what the first step was, i took over because i was the youngest in the room. i had to explain to a group of people all older than me what this drill was, why it was happening, and what to do. because i was the youngest person in the room. my status as a fucking child- or at least freshest out of high school- made me most qualified to inform my english class on what to do if a person with a gun walks in.
my instructor asked me to stay after class to tell her step-by-step what to do "in the off chance that it comes up again". and that's the kicker isn't it? it's not an "off chance" anymore, it feels like your chances are 50/50; either you'll be in the situation or you won't. and we're turning to the "first generation" of shooting survivors to educate people on why we're so fucking scared all the time.
i set up a medical ID on my phone in case of this. i wrote out a contingency document to send to my loved ones in case of this. why? because i am in school in america.
Driving home is surreal enough… and then “Brother” comes on 😭
i take full responsibility for this and i would like to publically apologize
Jared, Jensen and Misha announces the end of Supernatural Thank Chuck, we have a year to get used to the idea.
see, this is what gets me about this entire thing. they told us. they didn't want a sterile corporate announcement to be what broke the news; they respect us- as fans family- too much for that
castiel in this episode was absolutely flawless. the extreme irritation at all times? the lack of social graces in front of humans? the very in-your-face reminder of his status as Not Human? the very off-beat war cries? the way he referred to sam as “my partner”, realized that humans take that as code for queerness, then just rolled his eyes? the fight scene? this was honestly some of the best cas characterization i’ve seen in a long time god bless steve yockey
please check the notes on this before calling me out for “erasing women”. i genuinely did not know that meghan did the majority of the work for this episode and if i had, i would have credited her. to everyone who has messaged me or added rude comments, please stop

Don’t forget Meghan Fitzmartin!
HOW COULD I FORGET MEGHAN THANK YOU FRIEND GOD BLESS MEGHAN FITZMARTIN
heyyy i’m almost at 4k and want to do a celebration when I hit the milestone! any ideas or input? here are some things i’m thinking:
-fic giveaway (no more than 4k, haha get it?), whoever wins it gets to prompt
-fic recs: kind of like the self rec thing i did two years ago, where everyone sends in their fics and i compile a huge list
-something kind of weird but may be cool?? everyone sends in one of their fics they want me to “liveblog”, i choose some at random and do a liveblog every night for a week or something, posting reactions to the fic as i go
anyway, i’m 100 away from 4k so this might not be for a while but!! something to think about i guess.
CONGRATS SAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! first thing's first, if you aren't following sam, go follow her immediately, she is a lovely human being who deserves all the love in the world
second, the idea of your meme-y self liveblogging otber people's fics is endlessly amusing so i'd like to cast a vote for that ✨
I want y'all to post your favorite cheesy pick up lines! (Post in any format you want) and tag some people!
Here are some of mine
me: offers crush a chicken
crush: what-
me: sorry, i just can’t stop chicken you out
you literally could not have picked a better gif, emma watson was the first love of my life and if i lie to myself hard enough i can imagine that's her actual reaction to me saying it i'm sobbing
I want y'all to post your favorite cheesy pick up lines! (Post in any format you want) and tag some people!

brain; here are four new ways to make crossing lines even more painful!!!
me: noice. do continue.
brainstorming these ideas made my heart hurt. y'all are gonna love it
support content creators. this isn’t instagram or twitter. simply liking is not enough and isn’t seen by anyone but you. it’s just not enough. not when no one sees it. stop letting peoples hard work go unnoticed. stop contributing to art dying on the creators blogs. this also goes for writing and basically any other art on this platform. if you liked it, please share it. it takes about the same amount of time and i assure you, seeing a reblog makes a creator much happier than a like.
this is a problem. in case you need more proof:
this is one of my fics.
i’ve been in the fandom for a long time - 4 years long - and when i first got here, reblogs were way more of a thing than they are now. I wish I could pull up receipts of really old posts that I’ve seen (gifs and graphics and fics alike) that got so many more reblogs than likes. for some reason or another, things have shifted. when i tried to start putting out my writing 2 years ago i thought that everyone just hated my writing and was giving me “pity likes” because i got like, 12 reblogs on a fic out of 200 notes.
obviously we’re putting out this content for free, people are consuming it for free - there’s no obligation on bloggers to signal boost or reblog or whatever. but it is encouraging, and nice. and if you like the content - consider reblogging it. it’ll encourage the creator who made the content you enjoy, which will probably motivate the creator to make more of the content you like - a happy cycle :)
@wanderingcas some receipts of my own
notes from a 2014 post
notes from a 2018 post
Both have 1.9k notes but only one has a 1:1 ratio and one has 1:2
Just more evidence from two of my posts. I’ve noticed about a 1 to 3 ratio…for one reblog there’s 3 likes. This is one of the reasons I’ve been feeling very discouraged & disheartened about continuing to gif bc it seems to me I’m not making the content that’s worthy enuff for peeps to reblog. I know we do this for free & as a way to express ourselves creatively but we’re also human & do have the desire to feel valued & validated ya know😥
this is from my most popular fic. that's right, my most popular fic was interacted with almost 450 times and only 109 reblogs. this is the shit that makes creators want to quit creating and trust me, a fandom without creators is significantly less fun. if you won't support us for us, support us for you and your enjoyment of fandom spaces. support. creators.
It’s cold as fuck where I am. Any tips on staying warm?
Or you could fork
hey i didn't know you'd be on next season on the good place! good on you man
