I could have sworn I heard something once about how fast food chains put addictive chemicals in their food. For me, I don't have an addictive personality. There's nothing in my life I feel addicted to other than fast food. It's weird. I know the food is dogshit and I can make tastier stuff at home. But I also think about getting fast food all the time and have to stop myself from ordering it a lot. It does kind feel like a dopamine hit when I open up a bag of fast food and start digging in.

      I washed dishes as part of my main job for a five year stretch and it's taken me another 5 years to not be completely repulsed at the thought of doing dishes, and I hold a grudge against anyone who uses more dishes than is absolutely necessary.

          When I worked doing overnight maintenance at a fucking Cracker Barrel the dishwasher area was the one place I wasn’t supposed to clean but god did I feel sympathy for them. Cleaning bathrooms sucked but at least it’s a one and done deal when you’re working overnight. And dudes shitting up their bathroom isn’t exactly a corruption of a Good Thing like with food mess.
