Tweezing while at Panera

[Anonymous]

I am currently doing some work at a Panera in DC. This woman nearby is tweezing. She has a mirror and tweezers and started with her chin and moved on to her eyebrows. While sitting at a table in Panera.

Seriously?

Years ago when I worked in Crystal City---there was a man clipping his fingernails at the Hamburger Hamlet (or whatever it was called) bar. I was eating lunch at a table nearby and nearly choked. I had to ditch it and leave.

Why don't you talk to the manager? Useless to talk abt it here.

Ew. I only tweeze in my bathroom or if necessary - my car. I kinda like the car just because the natural sunlight makes it easier to catch things I miss in my bathroom.

I would never tweeze at Panera.

And the nail clipping - gag.

OP, Some are proud to have been raised in a barn. Case in point. Dis.Gust.Ing.

I met with a client a couple years ago in a consultation. He was this little weird gnome of a man and picked his hand callouses for the entire hour. There was actually a little pile of dead skin shavings on my glass table. I literally wanted to gag and then he brushed them off onto my floor!

Yikes. This is so funny b/c last night I was in Panera killing some time before I met my friend in front of Target to go to dinner at Red Rocks. I drank a cup of coffee, wrote out some Halloween cards to my niece and nephews, made a to do list, and then, since not that many people were around me, I applied hand sanitizer and discreetly took my makeup bag out of my purse. I touched up my eye shadow and mascara, applied some pressed powder, and put on some lipstick. I didn't want to do it in the bathroom there b/c I didn't want to hog the sink. It was quick and discreet, and I hope I didn't offend anyone. I certainly didn't tweeze.

Is the hair falling into your food? Is she blowing the tweezed hairs over onto your plate?

Meh, just don't look if it bugs you so much.

Yes, it's not polite. But, unless you're going to go over and ask her to stop, what's the point in complaining?

So hilariously gross. Like my co-worker at DoJ (left a decade ago) who sat at his desk picking out and eating his comb's scalp flakes. Yeah.

I really just threw up in my mouth.

I tweeze in the car (only at stoplights), which I hope is not quite as gross. I'm sure I've gotten busted. Would never do it at a restaurant, though!

I once interviewed with a company [several people] then was hired. My supervisor [immediate boss] would sit at his desk clipping away. The other person who was in charge was a nose picker. The one who took over responsibility for the job function of my stuff [new hire] was a whack job who went through a divorce and had so much weird baggage about me. I hated that job and just couldn't perform well with someone getting snot and boogers on documents I had to deal with.
