What kind of shenanigans did you get up to behind your teachers' backs?

deletion thread

i'm what the fucking because i did not know my boss' family was so fucking rich that a $60 gift card to a grocery store was something to give away because they don't go to that store! shit!

ok so cry moar igss

come on now

$60 is not really 'fucking rich' territory

to just throw money at someone? uh maybe it's the poor girl in me, but fuck, $60 buys a lot of groceries.

ia with you

that's more than a week's worth of groceries for me

and? you don't have to be ~rich~ that giving away a gift card you presumably didn't pay for to a store that's out of your way is some unthinkable act

i'd say you have to be comfortable. sixty bucks is a lot of money.

well yes, obviously

but since this person presumably has a reasonably senior position at wherever owlie works i don't understand why she's so shocked that they're comfortably middle class

hi chicken

lol irl

it's not out of their way, though.

they don't go there because that's where us regular folk shop, and they only go to albertson's or trader joe's.

it can buy a good chunk of groceries

you don't need to be 'so fucking rich' to do that... if i had a gift card to a store i didn't go to, i live in a city, if i needed a car to get there, there's NO way i'm going to that place, i'd give it away too just so someone could use it

i'd sell it because i'm actually poor

i've tried

it's really hard to sell gift cards, i usually look on craigslist and it's such a pain i'd rather give it to someone i know needs it

if it was to a store that was out of the way or completely ridiculous to go to, then yeah, sure, i'd give it to someone more likely to use it.

but this is a big chain restaurant here. it's a kroger store!

fuck i'm jealous. kroger is rly cheap.

i meant chain store, not restaurant, haha

a lot of people don't see gift cards as 'real money'

that is ridiculous, i can't imagine thinking that

i'd be pretty shocked too owlie. 60 bucks could buy so much food if you budget correctly ;~;

i'm going to restock some spices and like, sugar and stuff, but seriously.
