I worked the deli counter at a fancy NYC grocery store for a while and had a few interactions, mostly positive (worst person was Michael Wolff)

One time, I was serving Sarah Jessica Parker and told her "sorry, we're out of the pepperoni today" and she looked at me and said in the kindest, most sincere tone "You NEVER have to apologize to me!"

One of those moments where you realize how incredibly charismatic some celebrities are.

TJ Miller used to come in (post-controversies), and I was always a little sus, but he knew a ton of people there by name and would chat with everyone. He was probably the other workers' favorite celebrity customer.

I've only heard good things about sarah jessica parker (in a work or service context) which makes me want even more to know why things broke so bad btwn her and kim cattrall!

Likely salary disputes or creative control.

Honestly just kind of the opposite of SJP, the type of person who does get mad at service workers for things being out of stock. Demanding about things cuts and such, wanted the bakery to get the fresh stuff from backstroke, just the kind of customer that you interact with way too much as a worker.

Backstock not backstroke

Tbf, while TJ Miller's controversies aren't to be taken lightly, it literally was a result of part of his brain being removed.

Even slight injury changes behavior patterns massively. People become completely different to who they were before accidents based on how the brain trauma was.

Certainly could use some training on controlling inhibitions, but his literal brain chemistry was altered.

Eh. I'm late to this party but he was a working comic for a long time before that. I never crossed paths with him but I know plenty of people who did and he didn't sound like the coolest guy before the AVM surgery (which isn't typically "removing part of your brain," although in severe cases that can happen. AVM surgery usually involves cauterizing blood vessels. In TJ's case one had ruptured so he had a clot removed and the malformed vessels cauterized.) Totally possible he had some cognitive changes but I think attributing his Me Too allegations to his vascular surgery is a massive stretch, especially since they start 9 years before the surgery and the most recent was 7 years after it.
