yes this is a natural series of events when you've worked at the same place for over a year and it also happens to have RIDICULOUSLY quick turnover where very few people wind up staying on consistently, but ive become one of the Experienced Waitresses That Knows What They're Doing at my job and we very suddenly have a lot of New Teenagers That Have Never Done This Before and it's just. insane to me. bc when i started my job i was SO intimidated like it truly is a big very fast-paced place where everyone has to pull their weight (ie you need to be able to do the coffee station and work the floor and run food and help on bar) and the customers are particularly wankerish so the more Experienced Staff that had been there for a while were like mini gods to me. like truly i thought they were so cool and smart and unbothered and now that's me. i have a gaggle of 17 year olds constantly asking me how to do things and I KNOW THE ANSWER. on a government wage no less

not thinking about if this “fearne calloway” really is fearne calloway. this faun being sent out by her “nana”, who is sending people out, to find “parents” that were in hiding despite the severe dangers, despite the fact no one even knew these parents had a daughter. the first thing fearne ever says is her name. fearne calloway. not fearne. but fearne calloway. recognizable instantly to those who are hunting them, and this faun was sent out alone with it pinned to her chest. the disconnect of time and age, birdie being surprised how much this fearne calloway has grown, her being given tangible postcards for these parents that are just rose-scented lies. and she can’t really remember. oh she felt different in the feywild… and she has wonderful… memories. but she doesn’t remember when her parents left. of course she remembers her nana’s handwriting… but not enough to recognize it. she remembers sections of her home in the feywild… but not details. I don’t remember what I’m doing here. Oh I’m Fearne Calloway I’m Looking For My Parents Birdie and Ollie🤗

Oh don’t misunderstand me I fucking love my job. I have high job satisfaction like...90-95% of the time. I actively enjoy 80-90% of the activities I do in a work sense. For most people that is wild. I have never liked anything so much. I am lucky as hell. I am most definitely not saying I dislike it!
I’m saying, “My sister is very smart, and I have very smart friends, all with really incredible educational bonafides, and I’m, uh, an anime blogger” ahaha.

sorry for the scattered afternoon thoughts but tbh the way some ppl (im talking white, middle-class background type of ppl) will project and assume that old people or working class people etc. are "bigoted" kind of baselessly.... but then never make immediate assumptions about people who are specifically from their OWN demographic like that... aside from it, like, kind of just being very unfair towards the ppl they're slating (as if those people are not also capable of the same judgement as YOU are...) i think its telling as to how they view/percieve themselves. like i cannot tell u the number of white ppl, in particular, ive met who thought younger gay ppl were inherently "less racist", that lgbt spaces were "more open", bc the people in those spaces walked and talked like them... so they view THOSE people as being capable of enlightened like them, and of themselves as unbiased BUT it was honestly just... a combination of complete and utter lack of self-awareness and some extremely ironic bigotry on their own part bc they couldnt self-examine properly. and also just assumed that ppl who didnt fit theire extremely narrow perspective, who weren't similar enough to them, were inherently stupider / less kind when its like... mmhm no i dont think so. i think you need to realise you yourself are quite capable of a lot of horseshit and do some actual self-reflection as opposed to the performative silliness....
