Couple of weeks back, got called out for saying some stuff that rubbed people the wrong way. And last week, the gal on the team dropped a bomb, said she's not keen on working with me anymore because of what I said. Now, I'll admit, maybe I pushed it too far. Made a remark about two guys from a certain background looking alike and how i cannot tell them apart - not my brightest move, I know. Then there's this thing about my daughter and driving, something about me not wanting her to drive cause she will end up wrecking the toy car. And there's this blurry memory of some sexual joke I cracked. I was just trying to keep things light, but now I'm thinking maybe I missed the mark big time Pigsfeet on Rye fucked around with this message at 01:33 on Mar 29, 2024 |

Shocking, that he refuses to repeat what he said, and yet is certain it was probably fine... I'm sure he'll be in for a nasty case of HR induced amnesia later.

My (25F) best friend (24M) proposed to me. I’m confused and mortified. Where can we go from here?quote:TLDR: My best friend off 2 years seems to think we’re in a relationship and decided to publicly propose to me. I have no idea what to do. quote:I’ve not dated anyone since starting university, but I have had hookups. I don’t tell him about them because we don’t discuss sex in our friendship, but I’ve presumed (maybe wrongly idk) that he knew because I let them come to our dorm / flat sometimes. He’s not dated anyone (that he’s told me about anyway) and I’ve not seen him bring anyone back for a one night stand. quote:It’s not even like we’re roommates in that it’s just me and him sharing a flat. It’s me, him, and 10 other people. And as far as I know he hasn’t imposed this on anyone else.

My company does construction of a sort, and while most people are firmly rooted in appropriate work behaviors of the 21st century we have a couple construction managers with 30-40 years on the job where this behavior wouldn't surprise me.

There's a guy at my job who has no women on any of the teams reporting to him and has never hired a woman. As far as I can see from our candidate management tools, he's never even interviewed a woman. Naturally, he went from lead all the way up to VP in under two years.

It's pretty simple. 1. Are they Ferengi? 2. If no, then they're an rear end in a top hat and some degree of a misogynist.

Nebrilos posted:How the hell did this idiot become a manager? I'd guess he worked there for a while and got promoted. "Manager" isn't generally something that requires a special license or certification, so it's not uncommon for someone to get there without much in the way of qualifications or training at being a manager. And of course there's also nepotism and favoritism helping someone get a boost, but they're not necessary.

Fork of Unknown Origins posted:California just made it where you can’t punish someone for calling in sick the first 5 times a year and my bosses are losing their minds that people can “take a day off” “just by getting a doctors note.” Sidenote about my old workplace. When I worked at the Casino, (a soul sucking horrible job), we were allowed to take a day off for no reason if it wasn't a weekend, wasn't adjacent to a weekend, or adjacent to any other days you had off. So practically we could take off any Tue, Wed, or Thursday, so long as you called in and gave enough notice. Any other day off, you needed a doctors note. But given how awful the Casino was, doctors knew. So when you went in to the local GP for your mandated note, all you had to do was say "I'm *koff koff* sick and I need a medical certificatefor my time off work", and when the Doctor found out where you worked, they immediately reached for their pad, scribbled something ineligible, and told you to gently caress off and stop wasting their time, coz they had actual sick people that needed their help.

It's nice that if I'm sick I can wake up, message my manager and not have to drag my sorry rear end to a doctor that day

AITAH for dumping my GF after moving in with herquote:I 25M, moved in with my gf 24f of four years, three weeks ago. She chose the place and although her name is on the lease I paid half of the deposit and paid the first month of rent as she couldn't afford it. I also paid the first month of bills. She works part time and has some savings she used to furniture the place according to her taste despite my objections. I felt she overspent and the money could have been better spent on other things. OP: I'm hurt by this thing you did! Ex: Hey no one got hurt. Gender swapped version of this would lead to the police being called.

Block every single one of them and do not give the ex the time of day. If the friends are so concerned (a dollar says their concern is 100% because she can't afford the place without him) they can drat well pay it for her.

AITA for getting mad at mommas boyquote:Earlier this evening I came home from work later than usual, tired and hungry. My boyfriend, his son, and uncle came over to do some yard work for me. I ordered everyone pizza. My area doesn't have delivery, so he and his son drove the quarter mile to pick it up. 40 minutes later I'm calling him and he isn't answering. Finally I get him on the phone and he had picked up the food I had paid for, took it to his place and fed his mother, himself, his son and uncle. He told me he was on his way back with what was left. I was livid. I don't like his mother. I had thought he was picking up the food and we were all eating here and if there was any left overs he would ask to take to his mother. I got cold left overs of the food I bought. Of the 2 large pizzas the one I really wanted had 2 slices left. Apparently it's also his mother's favorite. I got mad, he said I'm being rude about him feeding his mom.AITA quote:Also, the yard work is mostly the mess they made. They decided my yard was best place to tear down the kids broke down vehicle. I own my house, he lives in apartment, so he had made the mess they were cleaning up.
