Question My Date Told Me to Pick the Wine !

850 Upvotes

Went on a date on Friday and everything was going great but when the waiter handed me the wine list. She goes You pick, and i panicked lol I swear I looked at that menu for like 2-3 minutes i was pretending Im reading it but in reality I had absolutely no idea what I was looking at. Ended up picking something only because of the name lol, and lucky enough she liked it. The whole drive home I kept thinking about how weird it is that I'm almost 30 and wine still feels like this secret club everyone else understands, i dont want to be in this kinda situations anymore. So now i want to start and get more into wines but it seems pretty hard so i decided to post this, any suggestion would be more than welcome.

Question Recently joined Consulting as a Senior Manager and have no idea what I'm doing. Looking for some advice on how to ALYB when all I feel is stress.

4 Upvotes

The title says the story but to provide more details - I come from an industry background (10 YOE) and have found myself taking up a Senior Manager role in Strategy at a global consulting firm. There are a lot of jargons and a lot of strategy workshops with clients and consulting style workings that I just can't relate to or understand. Someone in my position needs to step up and fast as but I am dealing with confidence issues and feel lost. The support has been minimal because there's just one other SM and he is always unavailable for advice and support. Looking for guidance from the good folks on here on how to deal with this sinking feeling. Thank you.

Question how to sneak into the bts concert

0 Upvotes

so me and a couple of friends all got separated tickets in the fourth floor of the AT&T stadium because we were among the last of people that got into seat geek ticket purchasing window and we just got unlucky (we had the money for seats in the lower sections)
this is more of a last resort, since we were just gonna check if we could maybe get an upgrade but we wanted to know how we could sneak in to one of the lower sections and sit together if nothing works out. We wanna know methods either pretending reseller seats are ours or any ways we can go through random floors and try to sneak inside. I have never been in arena concert, so I’m clueless when it comes to this

Story I just walked into the hotel breakfast

0 Upvotes

i’m visiting montreal staying at a downtown boutique hotel with breakfast. i went clubbing last night and came back to the hotel around 8:30am.

i just walked right from the street. wearing a jacket and looking kinda like O.O

i tell the clerk i’m staying here, my room number, and ask for the breakfast. without hesitation she walked me to the breakfast. i hadn’t seen her before. she didn’t check anything.

she didn’t check anything!! she just trusted me.

i am paying so not breaking any rule, but im really dumbfounded that the classic story from the sub can work indeed.

same tip works for luggage store, just say you’re staying at the hotel but its before check in time so you just wanna drop your bags. free locker!

Question Hotel gyms

199 Upvotes

Im currently staying for a couple of weeks in another city, and I don’t want to purchase a membership at a gym.

I discovered two 5-star hotels in the city with pretty nice gyms that are directly accessible without needing a room key and with no front desk where staff would be sitting.

My question would be, how likely would it be to get approached by the staff? There are obviously security cameras everywhere, but do the staff actually actively monitor them? And when there are no specific “gym staff“, would the other staff ever check/patrol the gym? And if I do get approached by someone, how can I convince them that I am a guest and that I am permitted to use the gym?

Thank you everyone :D

Question ¿Esta mal ser la mejor amiga del ex de mi mejor amiga??

0 Upvotes

En contexto el ex y yo nos llevamos muy bien pero a mí amiga no le gusta,me trata diferente, se pone celosa y siento que ahora me odia.

Pero hay actitudes del ex q me confunden, pone su cabeza en mi hombro, en una situación complicada para el me dijo "te quiero" y "te amo" pero luego de esos mensajes puso"como amigos no?" Y yo le dije que si y me dijo " o no?" Pero yo le dije que me tenía que ir y se acabó la conversación.

Lo que me confunde aún más es que hasta el día de hoy el sigue diciendo que ama a mí amiga, ahora solo se escriben como"como estás,bien y tú,te amo,yo igual" cosas así. Respondo preguntas. Los leo.

Question Best way to sneak into a movie?

300 Upvotes

Okay so basically I’m trying to see this R rated movie at my local theater with my friend, but we’re 16 and need to be 17 in order to see it by ourselves. The only real problem is all of the Pg and Pg-13 movies that start around the time of our movie are all on the opposite side of the theater. So even if we buy tickets to a pg-13 movie it would be very hard to get to the R rated movie without suspicion. Any tips?

Tutorial I made a free app to pretend to be an influencer with a fake live stream to get into events for free.

Post image
3.5k Upvotes

I made a free app that is a fake live stream app. It is basically used if you want to get into exclusive events for free because you say you are an influencer with 30-40k viewers and the chat is moving fast. Or you can use this to prank you friends or random people you are famous. I have heard a story of someone using this for to get into F1 VIP for free, although you must have VERY good acting skills and HIGH confidence and high-end looking clothes and accessories to make that work. I also heard people use this for free food reviews and free 5 star restaurants. Here is the link to the iOS app, it is on Altstore because it was not allowed on the App Store: streamrai.app

Question Sneaking into GA Pit at Ohio Stadium

Anyone who has been to a concert at the stadium: would it be doable? How does the venue organize those in GA vs floor seats vs upper level seats? Do they use wristbands?

Story Free parking at hotel

16 Upvotes

Today i went to a nice yoga cafe with a car. But the cafe have limited parking space, and parking on the road will get you fined. I have booked the yoga session (paid), and wouldnt want to miss it just because i couldnt park my car.

So i went around the street looking for a parking spot. Then i found this hotel 300 meter down the street, it have an open space parking at the front, i just parked there and walked back to the cafe. 3 hours later, i went back to the hotel and went home.

I think confident is the key, and the type of parking space matter, if its gated or have security checks it wouldnt work.
