I came here to say this, glad I'm not alone. I'll pretend to watch as they walk away, then rewind 10 minutes. I'm sure they hate it :)

I've come across this before and read it each time. For people who've been called lazy it can help clarify or at least help you feel seen.
It also renews my sense of compassion when I feel myself drifting towards thinking or judging others as lazy.
Even if a bit woo woo for your tastes, Worth it for the perspective, IMO.
Also, flattop is an old style, if they ask "crew cut"? They mean short, same length all over (maybe with a taper or fade on the sides (gradual length from stubble low to desired length up high) but not the cigar butt. So be firm :)
Sounds like you want a flattop? In my limited exp. with the style, barbers expect you back you every 2-3 weeks.
So per other comments. "Hi, I'm overdue by a month, can you give me a flattop, # 2 / 1.5 on the sides, not skin?
Same, both points. The 3rd time it gave me a garbage answer, I could ask for what phrasing mistakes or assumptions I may be making leading to the bad output.
Doesn't make the faces my boss does when asked the same thing.
I remember this playing during the credits on an episode and I did a double-take assuming I switched streams or something. Great song, love the theme.
When my meds and life are just right, everything is tight and aligned and organized and on time and happy. I think it's both something I enjoy but also engage in when happy. As that balance starts to waiver, sometimes it is the obvious "I hate this routine is off" can be the "this is my happy routine and I hate that I have to alter or even do it less than ideally"
and yes, I know this is a starbucks :)
I came here looking for the others! Love this show.
I'm with you, in a store one ear bud in loud enough to block some stuff out, but one ear free so my hyper-vigilance is appeased. But at work (when allowed) or home, both on.
Even then... Was sitting in a room with 6-7 people and someone remarked I was the only one without a device in my hands.
That is what my ”research" indicated, no phones to be open to conversation, I'd much prefer quiet phone time. :) Somehow always on the wrong side
I'm a mess with family. For work however I inhale through the mouth to fill my lungs, then another sharp intake through the nose, followed by a slow exhale through the mouth like cooling cocoa. The exhale should be long. Repeat 1-3 times until I am calm enough to excuse myself. I practiced this in non-crisis situations so it's second nature and so I can do it subtly, but it does work "out loud" with a finger held up to hold off questions). Once is usually enough. But being able to say "I'm sorry, I have to step away" or "be right back" in a calm voice, rather than that shaky-voice is clutch.
Then I do something from TIPP (reference below). I recommend having a few ready at hand for various situations. At work, I'll go run up the stairs ( Intense exercise, ideally this would be longer, but even just a minute or two helps). That or paced breathing, sounds like you already have some of those exercises queued up. Holding an ice cube is a popular one.
(not endorsing anything on this site, just for the TIPP explanation, because I'm bad with acronyms. https://footprintscommunity.org.au/resources/introduction-to-dialectal-behavioural-therapy-the-tipp-skill/
This is a bit over my head, but have you seen this answer? https://stackoverflow.com/a/43409682
From that link: "construct an ArrayList<Integer> from Calendar.SATURDAY and pass it to putExtra()"
This and the wooosh with RATM's music, have me thinking a lot of people experience media differently than I do. Just a series of unrelated pictures or sounds that make a feeling. These themes seem core to the show and presented fairly directly. Or I maybe watch too much TV and need to get outside more :)
