2023.05.28 21:23 CorrosiveRobot How do non-cisgender people want to be represented in video games? (questionnaire)
For my master's thesis at Leiden University, I’m doing research about non-cisgender (like transgender and non-binary) representation in video games. In this research, I focus on both video games in general and take a closer look at Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s characters.
Let me start with an introduction of myself. My name is Sjoerd and I study Media Technology in Leiden, The Netherlands. My research tries to answer the question: How do non-cisgender people want to be represented in video games? This is an important question because video games often use hurtful stereotypes and there is especially a lack of non-cisgender representation. On top of that, when there is an actual character, the developers usually don’t fully know how to make them appropriate.
An example is Sirona Ryan, from Hogwards Legacy, who sparked a big debate due to their name (and many other reasons) even though the developers seem to have tried their best. On the other hand, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have some characters where the community actually were happy about how they represented them! Like Grusha, where a lot of people were surprised his pronouns weren’t she/her.
All of this sparked my research where I, a cisgender male, want to know what the best way is to appropriately represent everyone! Though, there is not one right answer and everyone thinks differently about it. I would like to ask everyone who identifies as anything non-cisgender to fill in a questionnaire and perhaps help me analyse and discuss the different possibilities.
The questionnaire itself consists of two parts. The first part does ask for some personal information, being their gender, age bracket (participants have to be at least 18+), how much experience they have with Pokemon Scarlet and Violet and their opinion on this matter.
This research has also been approved by the Faculty of Sciences ethics board under code FWN2022-008. The approval can be viewed here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fK-tfEMJ1-Ft7nQlpBYzOgOt7gqdktlc/view?usp=sharing
The questionnaire can be filled in here: https://leidenuniv.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_exrpk3esKeOu2hM

Heyo! Hope you lot are well, and having a good day so far! After poor showings from dating apps and a few blind dates gone wrong, I have come here hoping I would be able to find a long-term relationship with someone whom I can love, care, be there for.
If you like what you read, do feel free to pop up in my PMs (I'll respond to everyone), and I'll see you on the other side!

- A bit about Moi (bullet points because I find it makes it a bit easier to read):
- I'm currently studying Economics (as you could probably tell by the title), and contrary to popular beliefs, I am fun to be around :).
- Me as a person:
- I'm fairly introverted, especially in person if I'm meeting new people, but quite vocal on text (idk why).
- I care a fair bit about people I've built a close bond
- I think I'm funny, love to make people laugh, although I'm funny in a situational sense rather than a "Hey I make jokes"
- In a relationship people described me to be like Chandler when he dates Monica (Friends reference).
- In terms of my hobbies:
- I play the guitar, but haven't been consistent with it because uni be a bish. In terms of what I can play, Stairway to Heaven but it's a bit broken lol
- I'm part of my uni radio, which is incredibly fun, mainly just rant on about football, F1, and Cricket (try guessing my favourite teams, points given based on how close you are lol).
- Play a bit of football whenever I can (have unconditional love for the game).
- I love to game, currently playing Assetto Corsa and Warframe, really good games btw considering I've managed to Steam them for a bargain (Warframe is free but still, bargain).
- My entertainment interests:
- Anime makes up majority of my viewings. Currently watching Gintama and Initial D, two really good animes, would definitely recommend watching it.
- Love to read as well, current interests are Crime (James Patterson is my go to), and whatever masterpieces Khaled Hosseini produces. Also dip my toe into Sci-Fi and Non-Fiction, currently reading "The ministry for the future" and "Too big to Fail". Would be fun to discuss about books you're reading or the ones I put up.
- I listen to every music under the sun (Exaggerated), but my main interests lie in R&B, Rock, Rap and Grime. If you'd like to further explore my playlists here's my profile: My Spotify Profile
- My appearance (bonus info for coming this far down):
- I'm of Indian heritage.
- Around 5'7, 5'7.5 if I wanna flatter myself
- Lean, but not very muscle-y (I mainly do cardio).
- Basically, I'm the typical British brown boi :)

2023.05.28 21:22 ChrisWatthys I do my best to live as someone my younger self would think is really really cool
And I mean this in the "adult with autonomy" cool sense, not the rockstar sense.
"How does this post help me? this is a social skill sub!" I'm sharing bc this general mindset of self reflection and comparing my current self to my younger self instead of others has greatly helped my self image and confidence. Its incredibly difficult to maintain healthy relationships with others when you don't have a healthy relationship with your own self image to begin with. Its easier to make friends when youre a fan of the 'self' youre introducing to others, ya know?
Things I am/have now that would make a younger me say "WOOAH!!!":

Things I am/have now that would make a younger me say "WOOAH!!!":
- I've had more than one real job, where I show up and I'm expected to do things and get paid for it
- I actually know what Microsoft Excel is and how to use it
- I'm pursuing game dev/design, which is an aspiration I set for myself when I was 14
- I've greatly improved at art since I was a teenager. I'm on par with many of the artists I admired as a kid, and surpassed the other teenage artists I envied lol
- I've taken naps in libraries and sat in cafes writing last minute multi-page research papers like they do in movies
- I have a desk and computer setup of my own. It can actually run the games I want to play
- I've gone to comic conventions and midnight movie releases and met cool people
- I've gone on trips without my parents
- I've made my bedroom "my own space" like I always wanted to
- I no longer associate with any of the people that made my teenage years a bad time
2023.05.28 21:22 nykki_ross what is WRONG with me??!!
I don't know why I'm like this. I mean I do, but even with that knowledge idk why I can't change it. I feel like I'm not cut out for relationships and I should just stop trying. I'll never be able to trust someone and believe they won't eventually leave - because literally everyone (except my mom, thank god for her 🥺) has. Either left me directly or moved away and stopped talking to me or was so abusive that I had to remove myself, but at the same time continue to blame myself for all of it because if I actually were worthy of these relationships then I wouldn't have gotten treated like that.
And when every single relationship fails, at what point does it stop being "they just weren't right for me" and becomes "maybe I'M the problem here". I've been in therapy since I was 8, and I'm 29 now. I don't think this is ever going to change and I don't see why I should bring others down with me when I fail at every relationship. Why should I bother trying anymore when I already know how it's going to end? Even if it ends because I'm pushing them away, clearly it wasn't going to work from the start because of my own problems; because I'm never going to be able to trust anyone. I feel like if I were capable of real love and trust I would've gotten there by the age of 29. Honestly sometimes I just want to be forever single so I don't have to be attached to people who leave.
Like, I know this is classic BPD stuff. I just don't see it ever changing and don't know why I should keep putting everyone else in my life through my BS. I can't see any reason for me to have long term relationships bc I can't ever make them work.

2023.05.28 21:22 ProlificFuck Help with KeyCode Connect function
I'm making a placement system based off of a YT tutorial. The youtuber took the easy way out and chose left click as the delete function and right click as the place function. Because of this, if you try to move your view around using right click, half a dozen blocks start being placed. I'd like to switch this to left click = place and the E key deletes blocks.
I can't figure out how to make the keycode and the Button1Down to work, can I get help?

2023.05.28 21:21 gpu_melter Crypto mining profitable with variable power rates?
So i am currently still living with my parents and they pay for my electricity as long as the bill doesn't skyrocket. So real mining wasn't allowed (i did some but dad didn't like the bill) But recently we switch to a variable power contract per hour so we have negative prices sometimes (3-4hours per month) so i am wondering has anyone else this and tought to mine at those few hours if so tell me how is it going do you have some kind of program to auto start it(tibber the power provider here has an API for home Assistent)? I really want to know as this might be a good idea to still make a bit of crypto in all kind of small alt coins

2023.05.28 21:21 blueivybetta My boyfriend (28m) can’t introduce me (26f) to his family. Anyone have any similar experiences and advice?
TLDR; My bf was afraid to tell me that his parents wouldn’t accept me for my race when we first started seeing each other and lied about it. He eventually told me the truth, after being in our relationship for almost 2 years. I don’t know how to accept the situation since I am constantly left out of his family events and gatherings.
My boyfriend and I have been in a relationship for 2.5 years. We dated on and off for a year prior to that. Within our first few dates, we spoke about our families and our cultural differences. He spoke about his family wanting him to date within his race and not accepting anyone who isn’t. This is something that concerned me and I wanted to talk about further because I’ve always wanted to be part of a family bigger than my own.
On our next date, I brought up his family not wanting him to date outside of his culture and he completely denied ever saying it. He said that what I brought up was simply not true. I really questioned myself here because this is something I knew was said since it impacted me so much. I ended up convincing myself I must’ve made a mistake and let the situation go since we went on to not be in a relationship for a while.
A year later we got into a relationship, but I honestly did not think to bring up the family situation based on how things were going. Later on we ended up having a serious talk about him wanting me to meet his family and how excited he was for me to bond with his mom and sisters. I was soo happy but I wanted to tread lightly with the situation so I waited for him to invite me to something. After several weddings, family events, etc with no invite I was wondering if this was going to happen at all. Then one night we were with friends watching some matchmaking show on Netflix. We were talking about something along the lines of cultural differences and me meeting his family and he just kind of blurted out that that was not going to happen. I was so taken aback by it I didn’t know what to do.
We ended up having a conversation later on where he explained that he thought he might be able to introduce me because his sister had just introduced her boyfriend to the family, but that wasn’t the case since they were the same race, just different cultures. I confronted him about the situation when we first started seeing each other and he admitted that he was selfish and he was afraid to lose me, which I understood and tried to be nice about.
When I questioned him about moving forward in this relationship he said that he would try to introduce me once we decide to move in together. If they don’t accept me, we would just have to rely on each other.
As much as I appreciate his willingness to make things work between us, I am so fucking hurt by this situation. I’ve been trying to push it down but recently he has been cancelling our plans, saying he can’t come to my birthday, etc because he’s finding out about all these big weddings in his family he has to attend this summer. Not being able to be part of these events sucks. I feel like I’ve had this part of life taken away from me without a say.. I’m a fairly understanding person, and if he had told me the truth from the start, I know I would have continued on being with him despite the concerns. The fact that he has lied and twisted all this is what is making me so upset. Every time he has a family thing now I feel like I just get angrier and push myself further away from him. I don’t know what to do or how to talk to him about it again.

2023.05.28 21:21 SnooPickles6034 What do you think idols should sing about?
I thought of this question because of the hate Blackpink gets for making a lot of flex songs about how rich and famous they are. But what else should they sing about? That along with the love songs they release is all I’d expect from them. It’s what they know. Rosé’s solo was more personal and talked about how hard trainee life was and being an idol isn’t what it’s all about, but besides that they don’t have any sob stories to sing about. All 4 girls come from wealthy backgrounds and seem to have great relationships with their families. I’m not saying there’s absolutely no other topic in existence for them to sing about I just get why love and flex songs are what we prominently get from them. Even then there are more emotional songs like You Never Know which is more personal to them and being idols.
I think it makes sense for idols to sing about what they know and have experienced. There’s kind of a juxtaposition listening to new groups, especially those with minors, singing about love knowing well that the company doesn’t even let them date. New Jeans’ Hurt (not even gonna bring up Cookie) is a good example of what I mean. I really like the song but when I think about it i’m like who hurt y’all??? None of you can even date and Hyein you’re 14, what heartbreak have you gone through?? I know it’s a bit nitpicky because love is like the number 1 universal topic to sing about so i’m not mad at it or saying young idols shouldn’t sing about that. It’s just funny to think about when you know they can’t even date or experience love to be able to relate to what they’re singing about.
Also this post has nothing to do with Blackpink or New Jeans. Blackpink simply inspired this thought and New Jeans was just a funny example I thought of, I love them and Hurt is a banger.

2023.05.28 21:21 AnneOhNym Book about the impacts of Lynch’s Twin Peaks on cinema
Hi everyone, as the title says, I am looking for a book that explains the impact of the tv show Twin Peaks on subsequent shows and movies and modern cinema (not limited to Lynch but in general). Explaining the show’s context and the many influences it had on how to make a show, how to write a story, how to film scenes…
Any recs? I would also appreciate recs on good books about cinema even if not related to Twin Peaks.
Thanks and good day to all!

2023.05.28 21:21 Minister_xD Von Bolt can be fixed (+suggestion)
Von Bolt to me is a character with great potential that, sadly, was massively underutilized in AW:DS. This is my take on how we could utilize this potential in a better way without drastically changing the character in the process. I am open to suggestions and opinions on this and would appreciate some feedback!
Keep in mind I am not trying to make him balanced, but to make him more fitting in his role as a final boss character similar to AW2 Sturm, who he is commonly compared to anyway - but without making him too similar to Sturm so he doesn't feel like a cheap replacement like Koal/Zak and Jugger did.
So without further ado, here's my idea on how to fix Von Bolt:
Day to day: Von Bolt's units have 10% increased offense and defense. Enemy units can not fire back when attacked.
Ex Machina (10 stars): Autoaimed 3 ranged missile that strikes the most expensive mass of enemy units, dealing 3HP worth of damage and stunning them for 1 turn. Von Bolts own units are unaffected.
Okay, what did I change and why?
I added a day to day ability outside of the stat boost. Sturm had one and Von Bolt just had nothing here. No counterattacks on his turn are an immensly strong tool to have that also has great synergy with his stun mechanics. It's actually a criticism I've heard a couple of times regarding his power, that stunned units still fire back just fine - but that is no more! Now they are even more of a sitting duck. Stats stayed the same, as I felt like 120/120 stats would have been too similar to Sturm.
Speaking of Ex Machina, that power underwent two big changes as well. First of all, it no longer affects his own units. This plays into it being much more of a utility tool rather than the raw power tool Meteor Strike was and should further help the targetting algorithm pick the optimal target. The second change also goes in this direction, that being its range being increased by 1. Doesn't sound like much at first, but this basically doubles the amount of tiles affected (from 13 tiles in a 1-3-5-3-1 radius to 25 tiles in a 1-3-5-7-5-3-1 radius). This should make dodging / baiting it much harder and allows it to have a bigger impact on the game, like a 10 star power should. I was debating making it a 4 ranged missile (affecting 41 tiles in total), but ultimately decided against it, as this would basically be Lightning Strike with a 3HP cut on small maps.

 | Lately, the question the came about Pluto in V1 really annoyed me and I am still thinking about it, I was reading about how axial tilt affects temperature (not seasons) because we are talking about average temperature on the planet and so I found out that it doesn’t affect the temperature and the only thing that made sense is to mention the white patch on the surface that was mentioned in the question, so probably to say that white is a poor absorber of thermal radiation and so lower temperature.

2023.05.28 21:20 justmadeonetoday Tried making a move on a guy and I failed
I’m sitting at a cafe and I see a cute guy reading a book alone at the front. I tried to make a move by sitting next to him but didn’t want to be a creep so I waited a few more minutes before doing it.
I sit next to him and I’m on my phone, doodling on my journal, drinking coffee and the only interaction we had was me asking if I could sit here. About 30 minutes later, he gets up and leaves! I had all that time to ask him out or give him my number but I needed more time😅 and I was conflicted about my intentions because he’s cute and I’d want to hang out with him but I’m not ready to date so I was trying to figure out in my head how to go about asking him - if he wanted to be friends and read together😭 clearly I was overthinking and before I knew it, he’s gone and I lost the opportunity!
Either it wasn’t meant to be or I screwed up a potential connection so now I’m gonna stuff my face with food to self soothe🥲
Men of Reddit- next time this happens, can I just walk right up to the guy, hand him a piece of paper with my number on it, say “here you go” and just walk away? I have no problem doing this but I was worried it would be too forward and come off as aggressive?

2023.05.28 21:20 I0h0 I (30F) was raised Catholic, he’s (26M) LDS- 3 years into our relationship he tells me we’re done, kids have to be raised Mormon, and I’m devastated.
Before we agreed to a relationship we talked extensively about religion, values, beliefs etc. Both of us were accepting and willing to compromise, and have some sort of middle ground- we believe in God- type household. I’m no longer a practicing Catholic, happy with more non-denominational beliefs. Here we are 3 years later, I’m frustrated because our relationship isn’t progressing and he’s admitted to changing his mind. I’m angry, I’m upset, I’m depressed. Some days I want to say fine he wins, we can raise future kids Mormon because that’s how much I don’t want to lose him, but then other days I can come to my senses and say no- I very much don’t agree with the LDS church… I feel like he’s scared to admit that yes he has some problems with it too, which is why he doesn’t care if I convert, doesn’t want to get married in the temple, has lots of other mental self confidence struggles etc…. BUT it was never about him leaving this church. I tried to be supportive, I just told him I do not want my kids NEEDING to be one way or the other- we can teach our different view points and eventually they can decide for themselves. He says that isn’t good enough.
I truly thought he was going to be my future husband. He is my best friend. Since this happened I just feel dysfunctional. We had the wedding all planned, looked at rings, I’m ready and have been starting to question why we aren’t moving that direction and the past few months I could tell he was holding back. Finally, he came out with his stance without any further explanation than it’s the right thing to do. Again not caring about what I chose to do, (???) as long as kids are Mormon.
Anyone know if this could really work with differing beliefs, and have a happy household? Do I need to try harder to accept his church? Is there anything I can say to try to have this work to where we are both happy? Or do I just seriously need to let it all go?
TL;DR- BF of 3 years changing his mind that kids need to be raised Mormon when I don’t want to, but desperate to try to make the relationship work.

2023.05.28 21:20 thespygorillas Where To Hide Your Hardware Wallet, coming from someone who lives in a country where everyone hides their money now.
Country crises cause banks to close with all the people's money, then inflation soars, now banks either don't give money back or gives them in small amounts at the pre-inflated rate. Oopsie daisy, now everyone's money is "self-custody".
And now everyone has gotten shiny new hardware wallets after the thing that happened.
So let's get to the point, there was news on wild places people have stored their money post-banks and they will most likely work for your hardware wallets! *this is not financial advice, don't sue me.

- Find yourself a loose floor tile and hide it under there! Some money was reported to rot there due to lack of oxygen, so I'm not sure how the hardware wallet materials will last. (this might not work in the cardboard houses of America)
- Some sneaky unused pipe in some wall will do the trick! just make sure a rat doesn't snatch it, like with that one guy's money …
- Closet! I've spent some time in there, (still am) and I know all the nooks and crannies. Just layer some clothes you totally wear over it.
- Put it in a bank safe! … oh, wait.
2023.05.28 21:20 dkpatkar I want to have an important discussion
 | Hi , submitted by dkpatkar to indiasocial [link] [comments] Thanks for coming here and participating in this discussion. Let me just directly come to the point We have been lied to , all of us , a big scam has happened for our whole generation and nobody is talking about this. I mean just look back 10 or 20 years back when we were kids , we were told just study hard and everything is gonna be alright, some people even were advised to follow their non educational dreams , But what happened, Those who Chase their non educational dreams, only a small fraction of those people succeed , And those who follow the educational path , you can definitely get a job , if you are in a technical course , But do these jobs or professions really matter, I mean i just calculated a few days back as per my current salary and growth % it would be at least 20 - 30 years before I can maybe own a small home of myself, while saving every bit of my salary , forget about a side farm or a side garden, Price of land is just so high that it is mind blowing, And through social media we are continuously told to chase some fictional dreams , for example - buy sports car , wear branded things , live in large mantion, have supermodels for girlfriend, travel world , fine in 5* hotels etc , i mean all that sound to ridiculous and impossible from the perspective of a normal person with a normal job , The only way one can afford all that is that he/she should become a billionaire, I mean, how many of us can literally become a billionaire, forget about billionaire, most of us will never have 8 digit bank balance (inr) I'm their whole lives , at least i don't think i would ever have, It is all just so crazy, While we see those f***** politicians and their aids earning billions without breaking a sweat , Actors , sportsman , who earn so much are respected so much , but i just dont understand that, they are going to keep that money to themselves, so why we should show respect to the rich people, I see many people in India are literally dependent on the government rations , people can't even buy wheat on their own , this is the condition in India, And we are celebrating a 20000cr parliament building, I mean all this system is fucked up to the core , and no one is talking about this, If just tell someone i earn less they will say just get a better job , a better job requires better skill , and that is given by a better college, and a better education requires money , lots of it , I missed my chance to go to a good college, And now I'm in this rat race with the little skills I have , And everyone is going to blame me saying oh no you are just an average person, i mean did i want to be an average person, When i hear about education system and living condition in Europe or other countries, i feel so bad , I think people who are leaving India , they are making right choice, We are continually being fed lies by everyone, Become entrepreneur and you will earn billion or so , But it is just so tough , very few % of startup actually survive, and making a billion dollar eco system in a new company in today's world , is literally almost impossible, unless you get lucky or you are already a billionaire ( for ex - jio ) I continually ask myself, what better i can do in my life , but nothing comes in answer , because there is nothing much one can do. However, i may be incorrect on some of the points, or i may be speculating things more negatively, But the truth is that i feel that we should give up on our false dreams , and start evaluating the life as it is now , as maybe then we can make better choices, I don't know maybe sometime in future when we will have a good government, things might change, But I'm not going to bet on that , right now i don't know what is the solution for me for us to have a better life , but i believe that someday i will find this answer. Thank you for reading, Please let me know your thoughts if any, Please correct me on any points where i may be wrong or not fully correct, I know my knowledge of the world is limited, and I'm improving it day by day. |
2023.05.28 21:20 holyshiteu Dialogue mod edits
I've seen most dialogue format edits are season_day(heart level). Is it possible to make different variation for the same format? For example:
Fall_mon10 v1 : xxxxx.
Fall_mon10 v2 : yyyyy.
Fall_mon10 v3 : zzzzz.
If so, how? Sorry if the explanation is confusing, english isn't my first language

2023.05.28 21:20 SkittlzAreGayBeanz Is my mom narcissistic?
I, 16 F, have been living with only one parent, my mother, for 13 years. She constantly says that my father is a narcissist and never stops ranting about how him not loving me and my brother effects her. Anytime i try to talk to her about my many problems, she turns it around and makes it about her. And if i say that i have trauma, which i do for many reasons, she swears that she has never caused it and says that her trauma outweighs mine. Which my firm belief is that no trauma outweighs another persons. Im not allowed to cook, when i do something nice for her, im either yelled at for doing it or told that I should be doing more for her. She doesnt buy food other than things for her, and when things run out, its apparently mine and my brothers fault. Which A) I eat once a day, and B) she locks up the food, so how are we the ones eating it all? I cook, clean, and pretty much do everything while she is on her phone 24/7. Im rushing this post bc if she finds me talking about her, i get majorly punished. So with all that being said, is my mother a narcissist? Everyone tells me she is but i need some non biased opinions

2023.05.28 21:20 Reasonably_Prudent22 Audio Outlines
I love to listen to podcasts and audiobooks while i'm on the go.
I'm looking for a good and decent audio outline for specific subjects and im considering crushendo audio outlines and Barcasts. Any suggestions on how good these audio outlines are before I make my purchase? Of course I read the actual outlines and practice essay problems, but im just looking for supplements right now.

2023.05.28 21:20 code_hunter_cc How to get list of downloaded apps (paid/free) by a user from Google Play?
Android
I recently came across this app Purchase Apps, which is somehow able to retrieve apps I've paid for in google play after I signed in using my google account.
I'm trying to find out how it is being done as I want to build a similar app, but for the free apps which were downloaded.
However, I can't find which OAuth API Scope was used for retrieving that information, even after going through the entire list of APIs.
EDIT:I'm putting a new bounty on this question, as suggested by a similar question I've asked about here, and because here and there I don't see a real answer about how to do it, and what can be done with it.
I'd like to refine the questions into multiple pieces:
EDIT: I'm putting a max bounty on this, because no matter how much I've read and tried, I still failed to make a POC that can query the apps from the Play Store that the user has ever downloaded (name, package name, date installed and/or removed, icon URL, price...), including both paid and free apps.
If anyone finds a working sample, show how it's done, and also show how you've found about it (documentation or anything that has led you to the solution). I can't find it anywhere, and the current solutions here are too vague for me to start from.

- What is the API that can be used to get information of purchased apps? Where can I read about it? Please show a full, working example of how to do it.
- Can it do more ? Maybe perform search? Maybe show free apps that were installed? Maybe the time they were installed and uninstalled? And the categories of those apps?
- Are there any special requirements for using this API ?

2023.05.28 21:19 eddongi those who have worked as boba baristas, what are some red flags i should know before working there?
long story short I got "hired" within the week at a boba franchise but I'm in training. so, I'm getting paid minimum wage for my 2 days of training but there have been some things that have concerned me despite this being a part time job:
• they have not told me what the starting wage is for new employees: all they have told me so far was "it'll be based on how you do, but we can make sure it is in the $14-15 range"
• there is no written handbook for rules/regulations and every rule has been verbally communicated so far: they don't tell me anything until I break a rule
• coworkers/managers arent the most familiar with the POS and I was only taught the most basic functions, so when it came time for refunds or additional charges, i was stuck and had to wait for another manager to help. if I had more time to use the POS before opening it wouldve helped much more.
I'm giving them some grace because they just opened, but receiving training at minimum wage and not knowing how much I'm gonna get paid after the training period leaves so many things up in the air.
tldr; I wanted to know what I should look out for while working at a boba shop. this franchise is considered to have some prestige, so management like this raises some eyebrows. I still want to work here if the pay ends up being good plus decent franchise. thanks!
