Without nipples, these tits are pointless

Music helps me. Create a playlist that starts slow and gradually gets more upbeat. If you have a commute, this is a great time to listen/meditate. Podcasts or audiobooks are another good alternative if that’s your thing.
But honestly the best thing is getting enough sleep. Prepare everything for the morning the night before, laying out your clothes, lunch, and other essentials. This streamlines the morning process so you can set your alarm a bit later.

>Drama I was told? Not a chance I'm saying a damn thing.
I fucking love my workplace drama. I work at a bar, so it's all alcohol/party fueled shit like "Jane got drunk and fucked Alice's boyfriend", "Bob had to kick Peter out for having sex in the bathrooms again", "Sarah's new boyfriend is the DILF regular" just absolute high-school level shenanigans between 20-40 year olds. It's like my own personal TV drama. But, I never stir the pot. I've never told anyone anything else I've heard. I'm also married and don't drink, so I've never been involved in any of it either. As a result, everyone trusts me with their drama, and I get even more of it. It's great, and I highly recommend keeping your mouth shut when it comes to workplace drama.

Drink warm black coffee or latte. While you're making your caffeine, you're gonna feel awake. And staying warm feels like you are still in the bed. And if making caffeine were your morning routine, you would be happier when waking up early.

Never tell my mother anything you don't want her brother and sisters to know. She might not share your medical history, but she probably will.
(I don't care that she does. If you do care about people knowing your diagnosis, don't tell her)

LPT: If you've never sucked a "tittie", don't make a LPT telling others what it feels like. Trust me, kid, that ain't what it feels like. Go back to watching male bodybuilders and fantasize about sucking their biceps.

Reply to LPT Request: how to overcome Imposter Syndrome at work? How have you dealt with it? by ladladladz
It's all about context. When you start out and don't know much, you're going to look at everyone and see them as better than you, even the less than average folks. It's just a function of time and exposure to the work. You will improve over time as you learn and you'll have less and less people that seem better than you and more and more that are "imposters", compared to you.
I work in a field (engineering) where a crap load of people have advanced degrees. When I was younger, I would look around me and feel like I was so behind that I was never going to be able to compete. Everyone was speaking to each other using terms that I had no concept of. It was easy to see them all as up on these pedestals and I would never get there.
Eventually, I realized that the lingo they were using was specific to the work, not to the discipline of engineering. That's just a function of being exposed to the work. As I came up to speed on that lingo, the pedestals came crashing down for the majority of the people I work with because I could see that while they knew the work, they didn't seem to have any special abilities that I lacked and, in fact, plenty of them were mediocre. Sure, there's some that are stand outs, but there's also some that just suck. The average is just a plain engineer...and they're not so intimidating.

For example that you're packing nine inches all the time and your pants are always uncomfortable.
Give it one business day and everyone gives you bizarre looks at your waist level.

That's quite a presumptive statement. Was I speaking from personal experience? There's no way for you to know!

Yeah, I casually mentioned I was thinking about moving to a coworker and it somehow got to my boss who thought it was great because they were planning to "reorganize" a couple month later so I pretty much set myself up to be fired...

Bah just do it if you want to, ignore all the naysayers. There aren't really any rules to this and none of these people know your situation.
Also most people in this thread can barely even comprehend speaking to a coworker, let alone dating and banging one

Always watch what you say at work and also beware of other employees who potentially may not like you and be causing issues for you behind the scenes. Happened to me at end of my career. I was way too naive. Don't let it happen to you. Best not to have work friends or if you do be very selective.

Don’t form relationships with other co workers because they are all out to get you and screw you over.

Was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. There’s only been 2 occasions where I did drink within the last year and I limited myself but other than that, I’ve been without drinking for almost a year. It was taking ahold of my life, I got to a point I was so good at hiding it I could get away with it. But I started doing it so much and everyday eventually my body just had a smell to it and my gf could tell it was when I was drinking and it started coming between us and after one night of to many I broke down and decided to stop, I poured out what I had and didn’t buy anymore. The urge is always there, I still think about it and still think about getting a beer or two but I have enough self control over it now I typically tell myself no or get a water instead. It’s been hard but well worth it. Since I’ve quit I’ve literally lost like 30lbs lol I used to weigh 185 and now I hover between 155-158. It’s been amazing the money I’ve saved and the health benefits.

I slept with a coworker my first week on the job. I told the guy I worked alongside. The next day, every employee knew. In my defense, I didn't know she was married.
