I worked at a restaurant in the kitchen. We had a place on the wall to hang brushes. The GREEN brushes were to be used for food/prep areas only. The white brushes were for cleaning toilets, and other filthy places.
The white brushes were soaked in buckets and rinsed/washed thoroughly in a slop sink, then later, put in the racks that push through the dishwasher conveyor belt that ran through the machine if I recall correctly. It’s been more than 20 years
Monday January 8th was my last day/evening out, drinking, smoking.
I abruptly stopped and with the exception of a small glass of wine that Thursday before bed after a mild panic attack (honestly wasn’t quite sure how my body would respond after abruptly quitting) I haven’t drank or smoked since.
I had to go to my local private club a couple nights ago for club business for a couple hours but just drank club soda and ice. People kept trying to buy me a beer as I wasn’t there in a week (“Where you been?”)
It sure is nice waking up and feeling good, not having yellow/orange urine, dehydrated, etc. I was looking at my bank account and looking at all this extra money I have sitting there.
I’m in the US. No drinks or smoke since Monday night exactly 48 hours ago. It’s after midnight here so I’m going to bed. Going to see if I can make another day. Just worried about detox symptoms, if there is none then I won’t drink.
Woke up an hour ago, no symptoms. Feels good to not be dehydrated and cranky. In 7 hours I will want to, out of habit, go to the bar but I won’t. I’m sure after three days of not being there, someone will come looking for me thinking I’m dead or infirmed.
I want to turn it off entirely, but the “smart” hitboxes for the digital keyboard are also so imprecise that I rely on autocorrect to accommodate my fat fingers.
I voted for this. There was a lot of outright blatant lies on the commercials against this.
I forgot it even passed until my kid started kindergarten in the fall and during registration we were told starting that year all school lunches are free.
