Go easy on yourself kiddo, he clearly loved you and you love him and fuck anything else, don't let that get in the way. Pl... |
When I was 14 and 15 I stayed with my aunt Cindy for a week while I was working a job. The commute to my job was very long and she lived much closer. It sounds weird to work so young and also to travel for work but it was a family business.
I couldn’t sleep as usual (lifelong insomniac) and I’m awake at 3am flipping ... | It’s like a Tarantino movie. First you see Cindy getting ready to start her new life and family. Then it cuts to future Cindy and shows all the things she has to do to make it in the corporate world. Getting that promotion is key...Darrel just lost his job and little Suzzie needs braces that aren’t covered by insurance... |
So I worked as a window washer in my small town in Sweden for about 5 years.
Every morning you went to the warehouse were we had all of our stuff, drank a cup of coffee with your co-workers and talked for a bit before getting to know the places you had to go to that day, and who you had to do them with.
Our bosses we... | It's weird to me that people just let a random stranger into their house when they weren't there. I always thought of window washers as people who only wash the outside of big buildings. If it's someone's home why don't the people living there just wash the inside themselves? |
This was in the mid 80's when security wasn't like it is now and also, lot's of families didn't even lock their doors.
The first time I ever did this was when I was riding my bike in the neighborhood and saw a front door of a home wide open. I peeked in and said "hello" just to see if someone was home. No one answered... | I find it funny how you wanted to fuck with people but sort of respected their boundaries at the same time |
I felt so bad. He was just another patron who happened to walk past my table. Ah! Why am I like this?!?! | There, there. This will be one of those 3am brain-won’t-stop-replaying-my-worst-moments memories, so the next time you’re in this scenario, you’ll probably remember. |
I live in australia. Not sure how it works in the rest of the world but i was on my provisional drivers license as a teenager (we call them P-plates) and when you are on that you cannot have ANY alcohol in your blood whatsoever.
I stayed at my mates place one night and he had some beers to drink. I had two knowing i h... | The amount of luck here is staggering. |
Update- I honestly went back to the same laundromat this past Sunday. Did my laundry, didn't break anything went about my day lol. Thank you everyone for the karma and upvotes
Last night was doing laundry at the local laundromat. I had 3 washers going at once. Now normally, you fill the wash, add detergent, add quar... | That’s why he has insurance and unless you did it on purpose I don’t think he has any legal ground regardless. I don’t know though. Either way I sure as shit don’t blame you. |
At a party in high school i found a bottle of vitamin C pills in the bathroom and decided to tell other drunk kids that it was ecstasy and sold it to them for $20 a pill. I ended up leaving with about $200. | Sell them vitamin E pills, tell them exactly what it is, but emphasize the 'E' and wink at them.
Told them the truth, can't get in trouble. If think you meant ecstacy that's on them! |
Reposting this here instead of in r/offmychest, cause this sub seems more fitting. I have been browsing offmychest and this subreddit for a few hours now, since I couldn't sleep. Figured I might aswell chip in my story, since I don't often talk about this irl for obvious reasons. Please mind that English is not my nati... | You know what, stories like this always make me wonder why having mental illness or trouble is characterized as being weak. You went through so much. You pushed so hard. You're stronger than me and everyone else I know. Thank you for still being here today. |
A couple years ago I downloaded the Starbucks app and signed up for the membership to save my card and orders and such. After signing up, you get a coupon in your email for a free coffee of any make/size. At first, I didn’t know you had to load it to the app after ordering, so when I went up to the counter and ordered ... | I would think they’d catch on at some point |
This was almost ten years ago. I was a sales associate as a teen at a well known chain retail skate store. It was a cool job but my store manager sucked. Just rude and aggressive all the time, bullied the staff every day. I rocked it as a salesperson. I doubled my goals almost daily. Always at least met them.
One day... | At first I was gonna make a joke like “did you take a single sock from supreme?” Or something when I saw the title |
When I was 16 I got a job at McDonald’s. I hated making food and working front counter. I always asked to work drive thru window taking money at the first window.
This was before credit cards so everyone paid in cash. All I would do is keep a quarter or dime of almost everyone’s change I gave back. I would put that ex... | There's a girl working the cash register at chipotle that always shortchanges me and then acts stupid when I correct her. I think she's running the same racket as OP. |
When I turned 18 I was homeless, so for 6 months I sold body as a prostitute, to get money, to get somewhere to sleep for a night, hell even to get a shower. It was the worst time of my life. I’m a man and as a male you would think wow that’s awesome you scored so much. The complete opposite in fact every day I would s... | There’s a woman at a self-help group I go to. Demure, very attractive, well put-together, classy. Whenever newer attendees get too down on themselves, she stands up and begins shares with her full name, “and I was a street-walking prostitute for half a decade. I sold everything I had until I had nothing left, I sold th... |
This is a sad confession, and I pray that no one is ever put in this situation. But you gotta do what you gotta do. | Caught? That would imply you did something wrong. I see nothing wrong here. Stay strong, stay tough, keep surviving. Wishing you the best. |
When I was in the third grade, I was very into reading/writing and often stayed up far past my bedtime reading anything within my comprehension level that I could get my hands on. We had a stack of children’s encyclopedias I loved on all sorts of topics (dinosaurs, the planets, world history, etc) including one of stor... | As long as your not from pennsylvania were good. I came in second place in a poetry contest in my third grade. it can't be that... |
When I was four years old my father and mother divorced because he cheated on her. They had a really rough divorce and had lots of fights. Eventually the divorce was settled and my mother and father could move on. My father married his mistress, who I'll call 'E' as to respect her privacy. My father was really happy wi... | Not at all. You were abused and made to feel horrible by these people. Nobody would blame you for not having remorse. |
My boyfriend and I owned two mice. However, they were both male so obviously they'd get into little fights and whenever things got bad we took the black one out because he had the mentality the whole cage was just his. This is the mouse I accidentally killed because he had begun to fight over food (even though we have ... | I get it. The mouse was a bit of an asshole. But he was your asshole mouse.
You didn't mean for this to happen. It was an accident, a reflex. You jumped as he bit you.
This is no more your fault than tensing when someone yells "boo" at you and you are not expecting it.
You need to forgive yourself. I am sure that t... |
I have a wife and 2 kids, aged 14 and 11. I was a heroin addict from 16 years old to 23 years old, which was when my first son was born. My wife helped me get sober, and remains an amazing person and wife overall.
​
Last year, my wife had surgery and got pain pills. I don't know what the fuck came over me, bu... | OP the cliche comes to mind it’s not a sin to fall down, but it is a sin to not get back up. You turned to a dangerous but familiar to you coping mechanism in an undoubtedly stressful time in your life (2 kids, bedridden wife, etc.), But you realized you were on a bad path and pulled yourself back. If anything I’d say ... |
A long time ago I was a high schooler at a boarding school. I was a decent kid in the eyes of the teachers and school administration. In fact they liked me so much that throughout my time there I was able to rise through the student ranks. I became a prefect, then I became the Head Boy, and at one point I had passed tr... | Based on your name, you peaked in high school? |
While on a plane a few months ago, a depressed business man that was sitting right next to me started talking about his problems and how he failed to find a good therapist. 'I would pay a fortune just to find a good one' he said before asking me what do I do.
Yeah, you guessed what I answered. After that he asked me ... | Quit calling yourself a therapist idiot. That’s illegal.Just say you’re a life coach or spiritual counselor or make up some title. It’s not illegal to charge people to chat with you. It is illegal to masquerade as a therapist. Just label yourself appropriately and you’ve got a business. |
I go to college in midwest United States. I live in a dorm an have a roommate who shares a bathroom with me. He's not from the United States and seems a little nervous to talk to anybody who isn't from his home country. The first few weeks of college, I started to notice pee on the toilet seat. No big deal, I cleaned i... | No: he needs to wash his towels and wipe his piss up |
When I was 15, I got myself pregnant unintentionally. I was a very promiscuous horny teenager and I wasn't exactly safe about it. Sometimes I used condoms, sometimes I didn't. I got really worried when I started experiencing the usual symptoms of morning headaches and nausea and skipped my period, so I took a pregnancy... | This sub was made for this content |
It was senior year of high school, and we were doing a partnered assignment in environmental science, tracking the river behind the school to find its source. There was an odd number of students and I was okay with working alone.
That day the principal was “observing” the teacher, evaluating her performance. My teach... | How much did it boost your grade lmao |
I used to watch over my little brother (who at the time we didn’t know has aspergers) when he was at school. Kids would always pick on him and when he came home with bruises, I ditched school (I was in high school and he was in middle school) and snuck onto campus during recess and lunch times, but always stayed a ways... | You did the right thing. I can't think of anything better to do than that. |
Back in high school, I wasn't a great student and report cards always got me in a lot of trouble. Around the 9th grade I started intercepting the mail, scanning in my report card on my windows PC, then carefully changing all the grades and comments from my teachers using text & numbers that were already on the page. Af... | God tier move |
