That's one of the things that put me off getting a job last year (still currently unemployed). Judging from your post I'd guess you're pretty young, so I'd imagine that they'd give you some training and let you ease into things.
so yesterday i finally got a job. one that'll be paying well, and shortly after getting that job i started having a panic attack realizing i… more had a job and i'm going to be an adult soon, meanwhile every possible thing that could go wrong did go wrong.
but i got 8 hours of sleep for the first time in months so i'm pretty content tbh
it's a family business so they're obviously giving me training, but it's still terrifying. i'm horrible at talking to people, trying to be kind and speak to complete strangers for the sake of sales fucks with my anxiety so bad.

I was trying to fix a blade on my tractor, and as I tested the turn of the blades, my finger was too close and my right index finger was completely ripped off. No saving it. I didn't even feel it until I saw all the blood. I've been to the hospital and such; it's all bandaged. Advice: always make sure someone is there to help you when you work on machinery. It could have been so much worse.
Basically, it was caused by lack of attention when tending to a blade on a mower. I didn't feel it, but as soon as I saw it it hurt like hell. I tried to find the finger, but it was mush. I had to do some makeshift bandaging then ran to the hospital. I learned a very important lesson today.

I've got an issue with a friend at school and I was hoping some people here can help me (posting here because there's no help or advice thread.
So I'm in Year 11 now (school year starts in February in Australia) and I have a friend who I've known for a couple years, but never really talked to much until last year since we shared a class together. We got along well but drifted apart during last year, and since then there have been phases of getting along well and then not talking.
Things got a lot worse when I snapped at her over Facebook. I'd had a fight with my dad earlier and I just got sick of wondering if this girl actually wanted me around or not so I sent her a message saying that she should have said if she didn't want to talk to me. I apologized to her later and thought that things were fine but every time I tried to talk to her afterwards it seemed like she didn't want to talk to me. In March this year she said she didn't want to talk to me because it scares her when I get angry and she doesn't want to be in those situations anymore. We haven't spoken since then. I've had some issues with anxiety and stress since last year which I never told her about, and lately I've been wondering if her opinion would change if I told her the truth. I have another close friend who thinks I should try to talk to her, but I'm worried that she'll reject me and that I'll make things worse at school (most of my friends are closer to her than they are to me and if they had to ditch one of us then they'd probably ditch me).
Basically I want to talk to her even if it is just so that we can respect each other. I'm worried though that she'll just get angry at me and that it'll cause drama at school.

There actually is a help thread if you wanna ask there, but posting this here is okay too.
Here is the link to the Rant/Help thread I mentioned if you are interested: https://telltale.com/community/discussion/92470/the-vent-help-thread
Tell her the truth. About your anxiety and stress, that you want to talk to her again and explain everything to her the way you explained here, she will hopefully understand.
Hope I have helped with something

Thanks. I've written her a letter which I plan on sending to her over Facebook (not gonna approach her in person because I don't want to make her uncomfortable).

I would tell the truth... but I'm also miles away from the High School situation.
If you want to keep talking, if you want to be friends... Tell her that.
Tell her you were dealing with some issues. Tell her you know that doesn't excuse yourself. Tell her you regret it. Tell her it's eating at you.
It might not fix things. She will probably still need time to digest it. Just say what you need to say, thank her for hearing you out, then give her space.
Give her all the information and how you're feeling. Let the situation reside in her hands after that. You did what you could and if she doesn't want to be friends after, then that's how it is. No regrets.
Keep in mind that I'm the guy whom could never figure out, nor understand, the whole "girls like assholes" thing. So maybe I don't know best.

I don't give two shits about EA but this trailer caught my attention. That's because I'm a Star Wars fan. I didn't like the first EA Battlef… moreront but it seems they learned from their mistakes.
Kind of amazing how a lot of people hate the Prequel Trilogy, they just forget it's one of the reasons why the old Battlefront games are awesome and why the Battlefront Reboot sucked.
They also confirmed that it will have free DLC, no Season Pass at all. I'll definitely buy it but I have to wait for the reviews.
But still, that's some fucked up shit. It wouldn't have been a big deal if you lost the ring finger instead, cause it's the most useless finger in my point of view.
Today I learned of Alexis Texas, a porn star.
My name is Alexis. My elementary school librarian used to call me Alexis Texas, even though I was born in fucking Japan and grew up in Virginia.
WTF
So there I was eating dinner, and while chewing I felt something hard in my mouth and spit to find a centimeter of one of the prongs from the plastic fork I was using.
But when I looked to inspect my fork I found that two pieces of prong were missing. So it seems that I have swallowed about a couple millimeters of plastic fork.

Damn, register workers are well paid in the USA?

Yikies
I lost my finger today. But it's fine, I'm fine. It's not like it hurt or anything but it's cool.
not sure yet, haven't started the job. i'd be doing more than working the register though. i'm also cleanup.
... Wait what? What happened?
What the fuck? Which finger? Are you really alright?
I need information
Leave this for the other thread, please.

My right index. Yes, I'm fine now, thank you for your concern.
I just learned a valuable lesson. It was very scary though.

Jesus that's some shit right there. RIP your finger. You alright now?

The single player campaign in this and the game A Way Out is what I'll keep my eyes on from what was shown at EA's conference.
But still, that's some fucked up shit. It wouldn't have been a big deal if you lost the ring finger instead, cause it's the most useless finger in my point of view.
So, you're secretly a porn star?
Holy shit. Glad you're gonna be ok.
My condolences.
I hope things will work out in the future.
Yes, there's little to no pain at the ruptured area.
Thanks fam
Me too. Thank you
Apparently so.

I wouldn't be too worried. It'll pass through a bowel movement. I just wouldn't do it all the time XD
Maybe your elementary school librarian decided to go into porn and used her nickname for you as inspiration.
