what would you do?

I work as a cashier at Walmart. Yesterday I saw a mom and a dad in their 30's, with 4 kids, stealing A LOT of groceries. I didn't say anything, but my coworker saw them and told me to call the guards. I told her I hadn't seen anything like that, and she just stared at me like I was a terrible person and called our supervisor. He told her it wasn't our job to check who's stealing, and if the guards didn't noticed we shouldn't do anything.
Would you have said anything????

If parents are stealing groceries with their kids in tow they are obviously desperate. I would say nothing.

I’d mind my business but also why couldn’t your coworker just do it in the first place if they were so concerned

Walmart treats their employees like shit

It’s sad that this is some peoples harsh reality. With the prices of inflation getting higher and higher I’m surprised this doesn’t occur more often. They must have been in a really difficult position to even consider doing it.

Big corps meh they can handle the loss. Small businesses absolutely not theft can take a huge toll

arguing after having a baby?

Me and my partner have known each other since I was 12 he was 14 we recently had a baby together. I’m two months postpartum I feel like ever since I got pregnant all we ever do is argue and we’ve never really been like this. I would definitely consider him my other half my best friend too I honestly don’t know what it is but me and this man cannot see eye to eye anymore

Does this seem right to you? Private school separating kids that pay tuition and those that go for free in two different classrooms..

We qualify for the PreK grant (free school) in my state for my 4 yr old. We toured a private preschool yesterday that accepts the grant. They told me they have two groups of 4 year olds. In one class are the kids whose parents pay the full tuition (about $23k a year) and in the other class are the low income kids who have the free grant. Does this seem like discrimination to you? She claimed it’s the exact same curriculum, that they just keep them separate for “audit reasons.”

Do you think kids are sat down too much all day at school?

It seems weird and unnatural to me that young kids especially are expected to sit for so many hours at school. It seems like a long day to expect a child of that age to be sat concentrating and not moving.

I dont know if i want this anymore

Im so hurt. Ik my bd trys his best. And im always giving him assurance. But his temper is bad. Hes grabbed me by my shirt countless times. Gets in my face all the time. Yells at me over stupid shit and its so small in comparison to how much i have to manage omo. Im so tired and heartbroken. I just dont even know if its salvageable. I see where i go wrong but its only my response to his behavior. He picks at everything and i juat feel like im failing. Can anyone relate cuz i feel so lost and i just have no one and no where to go.

Bad idea or good idea?
Going to Europe (Paris, Amsterdam, etc) (1-2weeks) with a 2,5 year old?

It’s been my dream for years. We were booked to go but then Covid hit, now we have a child. My husband thinks we have to go while we have money and availability. And I think spending so much money and going on a non-vacation (because it won’t be fun or easy with a 2,5yo) is a waste of money?

Has anyone done it?
