one major difference i have found between service industry work (in my case food service but this is widely applicable to similar jobs) and other public-facing positions is that the job itself is often very similar because people is the same, it's just in service everyone approaches you already thinking they're right and you're a fucking idiot and its their god given right to disrespect you, where in other positions even if they are not nice to you they usually acknowledge that you know more than them on issues pertaining to your job. like the difference in behaviour from people who see you as serving them vs helping them is unreal. i am doing literally the exact same things. customer is always right mentality did irreparable damage to the fabric of society
#good idea generator#i loveee the library front desk everyone is polite and people will just ask you anything#they assume so much knowledge and access to data#ill be like 'just one moment let me look that up in the system' [googles name of school + upcoming events]#also not in a mean way but i never realized until i worked here how little anybody is googling anything#i think its funny and i also love to google things for people so i am perfectly suited to this#and some questions even though they are googleable the issue is more that the person isnt totally sure what theyre asking#but like. the library hours are visible on the home page. and outside the building that you just walked into on a sign#PPL DO NOT READ SIGNS. i knew that from other jobs but good lord people do NOT even GLANCE at signs#ppl would fully walk past like 4 signs about a specific thing and proceed to ask me a q about the thing. after waiting in a line#constantly CONSTANTLY ppl are trying to enter or exit through locked doors. clambering over closed signs to do so#its someones job when the library closes specifically to point out the signs and direct ppl to an open exit#and still often people will get up to the automatic doors and be baffled and confused as to why they dont open#but like even this i dealt w/this at my food service job and it was so frustrating#bc when you had to confront these people they would get MAD AT YOU. furious that they didnt read a sign telling them where to line up#but at the library people are polite and apologetic so you know it's not malice or entitlement ppl are just kind of inattentive#monumental difference tbh i actually love front counter so much people are so fun#and i like it when nobody is actively trying to kill me with their mind while we speak

DaiYua !! And my otp KiyoShi uwu
I have decided to leave out zombie apocalypse because it’s a genre I am not versed well in at all and I’ve just been staring the question for several minutes now and I just want to get one thing now, I hope thats okay ; 7 ;
DaiYua
1. Who is the happy morning person and who is grumpy and just wants to go back to bed? - I can see them both being early risers, Daigo often earlier than Yua tho. So meep. 
2. Who falls asleep on the couch and who puts a blanket over them? - Daigo falls asleep, Yua places the blanket like the good bean she is. 
3. They end up going to a party? What couple are they? Ex- Clinging to one another? Just there to steal some free food and leave? Both want to party? - Daigo is a PSD-guy, he will #PARTAY, Yua is just clinging to him like “;w;” while Daigo is just: “Look at that cute pancake that is my girlfriend :DDDD”
5. Where is their number one date spot? Why do they love it so much there? - Arcade, honestly I think ! ahdhdh Daigo wins her plushies. But really, he just likes trying to show off what he can do and Yua is just enjoying it as well because she finds it adorable how much fun he has and then she blushes big time once he actually wins something and immediately gifts it to her with the biggest grin. Also Bonus Points for Double Date with Shoji and Urara, where Shoji and Daigo just turn everything into a competition and Urara rallies them even more because “COME ON BF SHOW WHO’S BOSS >:UUU” and Yua is just “ ; 7 ; “
6. Who would be more likely to hug their partner and pick them up off the ground? - ahshd Daigo. Have you seen him? He’s strong and tall. He loves to pick the tiny daisy that is his gf up and cuddle her. 
7. If one partner isn’t the best at communicating their feelings, how do they show their feelings to their significant other in other ways? - I feel Yua is not as vocal as Daigo is, but she does show her love through small ways most certainly! She will often just silently hug his arm and snuggle closer to him and she will comfort him the moment she senses he feels bad and such. 
8. How did they try to impress one other before they were dating? - DAIGO SERENADED HER WITH A GUITAR AND ELVIS SONGS! Yua was just “!!!!!!” about all of this, because she’d never consider herself someone who anyone would notice but then this guy just comes along and plays her love songs. Also watch Daigo most definitely try to pull off some impressive sport-stunts when she is near. Gotta show he’s strong. 
9. Who is being way over the top and dramatic and who just nods and cheers on their partner from the sidelines? - Daigo and Shoji being dramatic rivals and their GFs just cheering them I guess ahdhd
10. Where did they confess that they loved one another? - Right in front of a Shokugeki that Yua had to host and she was nervous as hell and just “I know you will do well!” “...How.....How would you know that.” “Because I know that I fell in love with someone greatly talented!” “You.....WHAT” “Oops” Needless to say, that gave her a huge boost of dopamine, happiness and energy and she hosted the Shokugeki flawlessly and excellently. 
11. What is something small, but cute they do for one another? Ex - leave cute encouraging notes for one another on the counter. - Not on the counter, but I could imagine later in life Daigo just preparing a bento for her to take to work and he leaves encouraging notes in it just telling her she will do great today. Likewise he finds a love letter of Yua just being the most adorable bean and telling him how happy she is with him in his pocket everyday. 
12. Who is the one who does the cooking while the other helps prep the food? - In later life, Yua gets a bit more busy so Daigo does more cooking overall, as he loves surprising her with a dinner when he knows she had a hard day. Whenever she’s not too tired tho or does not have work she immediately rushes to help him prepare the food and they adorably cook together
13. What is a memory they share together that makes them both laugh so hard they cry when they think about it? -  Playing charade with their homies Shoji and Urara shdhdh I think that would be funny
14. They are having a water balloon fight, who wins and how do they deliver the winning shot? - Daigo holds back and Yua notices, goes >:I and just throws a balloon right in his face....She apologizes immediately afterwards, but he’s just laughing tbh ahdshd and says he’s impressed
15. Who would give the other their jacket because it’s cold? - Daigo
KyoShi
1. Who is the happy morning person and who is grumpy and just wants to go back to bed? - Kiyoko is actually a bit grumpy right after waking up ahdhd while Masashi is kinda already ready to jog like 50 rounds around the block and take over the world. As soon as Kiyoko picked out her outfit for the day, or had breakfast she will get her jolly spirit however. And I mean, even though he’s more quicker to action than Kiyoko in the morning, I wouldn’t exactly call Masashi a “happy morning person” ahdhd 
2. Who falls asleep on the couch and who puts a blanket over them? - Plot Twist, they fall asleep on the couch together and it’s their parents to put the blanket over them. [Okay but Kiyoko is a bit more likely to]
3. They end up going to a party? What couple are they? Ex- Clinging to one another? Just there to steal some free food and leave? Both want to party? - Kiyoko is clinging to Masashi for a good portion and is in social-butterfly-mode. She’ll urge him a lot to dance. He’s just being Masashi ahdhd. 
5. Where is their number one date spot? Why do they love it so much there? A park with like classical Japanese monuments and architecture or so, you know. And with Cherry Trees ! Masashi can calm down for 5 minutes, especially with Kiyoko there and Kiyoko can take good photos. 
6. Who would be more likely to hug their partner and pick them up off the ground? Kiyoko hugs Masashi a lot but ahdhd she’s not strong enough to pick him up. He will occasionally tho, because he took a notice of her being into being carried like a bride. 
7. If one partner isn’t the best at communicating their feelings, how do they show their feelings to their significant other in other ways? - Masashi is fairly different to Kiyoko than to most people and he seems to make a lot of efforts to make her happy. Although, he can be a bit annoyed by it, he will always tag along her shopping sprees, he will always take a billion photos of her until she found one she finds suitable for her Instagram. He always likes her photos on Instagram. He does not push her away when she tries to hug him or such. He also remembers things she likes and tries to keep them in mind when buying her a gift or just plainly interacting with her. And while he does have plenty of trust in her being capable of protecting herself, he still tends to be protective over her. (I hope that made sense)
8. How did they try to impress one other before they were dating? - Masashi was greatly oblivious to his feels, he didn’t really intentionally try to impress her. sahsdhds He just did. Kiyoko also felt no really high need to actually impress him, but she loves to give him her sweets and secretly hopes that she will like them as much as always. 
9. Who is being way over the top and dramatic and who just nods and cheers on their partner from the sidelines? - AHDDHF Masashi just yelling at random poor souls that they have no place on this school or doing other evil shit and Kiyoko just “uwu” behind him. 
10. Where did they confess that they loved one another? - Spoiler 
11. What is something small, but cute they do for one another? Ex - leave cute encouraging notes for one another on the counter. - Kiyoko tends to fix things about his clothes if she notices something off with it and she also looks for clothes for him on her shopping trip (Masashi’s clothes are mainly bought by his mom actually ahdhd). Despite being Etsuya Eizan’s son, Masashi is actually not one to spend loads and loads of money tbqh. He’s accustomed to a certain lifestyle yes, but he’s not Shigeo to buy a lot of luxuries to something just because he can. But if Masashi sees something somewhere that he feels Kiyoko would like, he will actually get out his barely used credit card. 
12. Who is the one who does the cooking while the other helps prep the food? - They enjoy cooking together meep. 
13. What is a memory they share together that makes them both laugh so hard they cry when they think about it? - ahdhd Masashi can not laugh that hard I think, but meep. They surely have a memory like that, but I can’t come up with a particular one right now, 
14. They are having a water balloon fight, who wins and how do they deliver the winning shot? - Masashi wins it but Kiyoko just ends up screeching at him that he messed up her hair. 
15. Who would give the other their jacket because it’s cold?
Any other person: I am cold
Masashi: Then Perish
Kiyoko: I am cold
Masashi: KIYOKO-SAN ! I told you that coat won’t be enough, here take my jacket. We should buy you a scarf on the way ! How long have you been cold already? Maybe I should prepare rosehip tea at home, my mother says it prevents colds-
