My wedding was perfect. Just me, my wife, a priest, a photographer and a surprise girthy sunburnt man in a Speedo we now refer to as “lobsterman”.

How many guests are invited 👀

Jeeze I only have like 5 friends… on that note my wedding would probably be like 40 people

I would be totally ok with that as long as it wasn’t below 90

Yes - a smaller guest list saves a lot of money and also planning pressure.

But when I want pizza or wings or burgers I have to hear a whole spiel. “Can we pick something healthier?” “You can order ___ but can I choose something else on the menu?” “I don’t knowwww” like MY GOD.

Is it weird that I get annoyed whenever my boss subtly implies that I should apply what I've learned in my graduate program to work? Being that the company didn't provide any type of tuition reimbursement nor did I receive any type of pay raise after completing my degree? There are many other factors as to why I feel this way (no promotions in past couple of years, entire team leaving job, having conversations about growth opportunities but nothing becoming of it each time).
