🍲For the past three nights I have eaten Applebee’s 2/$20 (two entrees, one appetizer, for $20). I’ve felt like a king getting this much delicious food at a bargain price, although the aftereffects have been… shall we say, painful. A few hours after each 2/$20, like clockwork, I have experienced severe IBS-level symptoms which last until mid-afternoon the next day.
I am strongly considering heading back to Applebee’s tonight for another 2/$20 (I am very hungry after being unable to eat all day), but I’m also having those intrusive thoughts in the back of my head. Am I slowly destroying my body by consuming this shit every day? I feel like I’m in the midst of a vicious cycle, and it’s hard to stop.
It’s not perfect, but I would highly recommend Applebee’s to anyone - particularly the 2/$20 promotion!

👨About a year ago, I started my first (public sector) union job after years of non-union work for different companies in the private sector. The difference in collective bargaining (0-100), benefits, job security, and mental/physical well being has been nothing short of amazing.
If you are currently strung out, feeling hopeless about your career in a private sector/non-union position or field, and are wondering if there’s something better for you - there is. I took a massive pay cut from private-public for the many benefits of a union job, and it was 100% worth it. Roughly 35% of public sector jobs are union-represented, and that percentage is higher in blue, worker-friendly states. Start applying to open positions that may interest you on your local/state government’s job board, use any connection you may have (I didn’t have one and still found something) - there is a better career for you out there :)
