My boss doesn’t want student workers eating lunch with other employees, because they might hear “adult subjects”quote:I work in higher education and my office employs college students. The two students I currently oversee (both over 21) have been eating lunch in the break room at the noon hour along with the rest of the staff members. My supervisor told me she feels uncomfortable with the students doing this because staff may discuss confidential work info during lunch and because some staff swear and talk about adult subjects. My supervisor asked that I either change the students’ lunch hours or ask them to not sit in the break room.

This is almost certainly because she's worried the students will overhear the staff badmouthing them or other students.

Report the workers discussing adult subjects to HR, promote the student workers to the newly opened positions. Maybe steal your supervisors job since she's fostering a hostile work environment.

Totally normal people: my coworker wants to find the office pooper — and it’s me quote:Help! I’m the Office Pooper. Every office has one. I have a medical condition that causes it but when I have to go, I have to go! I want so much to barge out of that restroom with pants around my ankles and ask loudly "SCUSE ME MAAM WHERE IS THE POOP KNIFE?"

A tale as old as time: Me [20F] with my male classmates [20sM], I don't know how to discourage undesired suitors in a classroom settingNon-Romantic https://www.reddit.com/r/relationships/comments/4mkaba/me_20f_with_my_male_classmates_20sm_i_dont_know/ quote:I know that as problems go, this isn't a bad one to have, but it's really starting to interfere with my ability to enjoy and profit from my education. Was it this thread or another thread discussing school sessions where kids are taught about relationships, and how someone being nice is not being flirty? Because goddamn, that's a good idea.

Kite Pride Worldwide posted:Why aren't they allowed to poop at this office? This isn't the first time this type of story has come up. One was that the sales team didn't want people making GBS threads in the reception area bathroom that clients/prospects use because that's how salespeople are. They want everything to be perfect up until the meeting so that the client isn't thinking about the heinous poo poo they just smelled while they're making a pitch. I'm guessing in this case there's a smaller single person bathroom in the office that it's silently agreed on that you only use for pissing. There's probably a larger and better ventilated bathroom further away where people normally poo poo. It's pretty ridiculous. They should just get some Glade plugins or those conical things with the evanescing scented gel or whatever.

Fat camps really can be poo poo but also, as a fat person, it's good to start managing that while you're still in your teens because set in habits are going to be even harder to break later. Provided it's actually a good place that's just going to feed him healthy food and have a lot of physical activities in a supportive, health-based environment, it sounds like a great way to break bad habits even if it's going to suck for him. Food can absolutely be an addiction and it's a tricky one because you can't just... stop eating. If he's actually on good portions all summer then by the end of summer that's what should feel filling to him. That kid is heavier than I am and I'm an adult, his parents are worried about his health and mortality.

You know, I wish my parents sent me to a fat camp at 14. I think I'd be in a better place right now. I'm 35 and 275 lbs, and I was probably 230-240 at that age. It was clear where I was going and It's a loving miracle I'm not even bigger than I am.

i can’t imagine spending a couple months being forced into exercise is really gonna convince anyone to make long lasting changes to their habits. unless they have a come to jesus moment after seeing the results they’ll probably just be even more stubborn going forward.

It's just even the nicest and most fun camp is going to suck because it's cutting him off from his friends for the summer and it's specifically because he's fat. Even though his parents aren't punishing him I see why it feels that way. Presumably they've got more information about this than the internet randos their kid went to for advice, though.

My wife [20] and I [22] had a serious sexual agreement and she refuses to live up to her end of the deal.quote:We agreed to a [20F4MM] and a [22M4FF]. I let her go first and the other guy she chose was my brother, that is pretty big imo. Well it’s been 2 years and I still haven’t gotten my chance. I consider this cheating if she doesn’t let me have my turn. I have been patient so far only because, before this agreement, she once let me watch her [F] best friend have sex with another [F] and didn’t ask for anything in return. We have a good life now and love each other and I don’t want that to change. However now she says she regrets the agreement and having had a threesome with my brother and I. But a deal is a deal. Any time I bring it up she gets angry and often says “Fine go have sex with another girl” or “Have sex with whoever.” She also says it can’t be anyone she knows or from work. Not even the same at all and I know she doesn’t really want me to have sex with someone else.

That is, before their kid is old enough to suffer serious mental and social repercussions from his parents splitting up over an unreciprocated orgy with his uncle? That's absolutely going to come up in the proceedings.

Most of the really ridiculous ones are fake, but... If there is a stupid situation two or more human beings can get into, somewhere out there will be two or more human beings who got into it. Go ahead and believe it's true. You might be wrong this time, but you won't be wrong every time.

Game shows and fat camps that just put you on treadmills and feed you roughage for 6 weeks aren't going to work well for long-term health but I don't think it's impossible for a fat camp to be beneficial. A surprising number of people just don't know anything about nutrition, are largely sedentary, and eat whatever is in front of them until they feel full. This is a surefire way to become fat, and breaking even just 1 of those can make a huge difference. Like say that a camp just teaches effective nutrition and portion control. This is probably going to result in someone losing weight, and food can be really delicious even when it's not covered in sugar and butter, so putting a fat person in that kind of environment might actually create a coming to jesus moment because they otherwise would never encounter that kind of effect on their own.

A good friend of my wife’s had a threesome with her husband and his cousin, turns out cousin was better hung and a better lover to boot, and that was the beginning of the end of their relationship. So stupid poo poo like this does indeed happen.

Stepdad is the good guy, fat kid is the 4chan person hoping to cash in some GBP for tendies. His alibi will be missing 100 pounds when he gets back in 3 months.

Even if it doesn't, breaking the lovely food and non-exercise chain for 3 months isn't a bad thing. Maybe long enough for a 14-year-old to realize that he may want to be attractive and continue doing at least some of those things in the future. And again, even if he goes right back to his old ways, 3 months of living healthy is better than 3 months not living healthy.
