Comparing the corporate world to jail send offensive to jail??

"To anyone suffering through the mid-twenties' malaise" -- ha ha right, how do you do, fellow kids?

DAR luncheons? Is this supposed to be set in the US? (Location is very ambiguous, and the author lives in Montreal.)

What kind of chef would call avocado a VEGETABLE

How many pairs of underwear does this man need to steal

Why would you name the restaurant Orso and the MMC Ozzy? (And also naming him Ozzy at all, but especially with the similar names.)

"she desperately moans, "Yes, chef."" -- I should have seen this coming (pun unintended), AND YET.

Finally diving back into the book after a particularly VIVID image that made me step away lol

Just got the ick from the MMC talking about "our nonconformist personalities"

One page into the first MMC chef POV, and I'm wondering how much the author was inspired by The Bear. (Curly haired short king chef 💀)

"I managed to secure a private loan for next year's tuition" -- girl, you in danger!!!

Already A LOT of sentences beginning with gerunds. Sometimes more than once in the same paragraph!

I really have to learn my lesson on books about writers, because I hate reading a 'deep' excerpt by a fake author.

Why are characters in Maine saying "arse"

Wondering why would a 20-something in 2019 be named Pam, and immediately validated by this: "Pams alive today span ages 63–68, with the largest cohort born around 1959."

How is there a new fourth POV being added?!?!

"the typical seventy-year-old man has a stronger handgrip than the average twenty-five-year-old woman" -- hey what the fuck

"Women have always worked. They have worked unpaid, underpaid, underappreciated, and invisibly, but they have always worked. But the modern workplace does not work for women. From its locations, to its hours, to its regulatory standards, it has been designed around the lives of men and it is no longer fit for purpose." 🎯🎯🎯

Reciting Lolita to pick up chicks 💀 even if it's this particular one's favourite book

(I also have no idea how far along I am because there are no page numbers, so the percentage is purely vibes)

I'm hoping that the love interest is a decoy and the real love interest is someone else 👀

"There was a white kid, a brown kid, a Simpsons-yellow Asian kid" -- ........... k.

I was already on the fence about this love interest, and now it turns out he's all about that van life lol

Explaining what rolling for initiative is on Page One Hundred Twenty Nine 🫠 I think there have been at least 3 sessions already

"Nearly two months into my funemployment, I'm finally ready to admit that I'm bored out of my mind" -- could not relate

"Not when I'm still paying my roommates rent for the NYC apartment that I'm not even living in" -- you could have sublet for the summer???

Obvs the D&D parts reading like an actual story is more compelling and less chaotic to read than an actual session, but the most unrealistic part so far is that this campaign is meeting WEEKLY.

What kind of person gets impressed by the marketing agency someone works at 💀 Tinder in Manhattan sounds like hell

LOLOLOL JAVITS CENTER MENTIONED

It finally happened to me: reading "unalived" in a book 💀

This protagonist is so immature 💀 like have you never seen a shirtless man in your life before
