My Spirit Otter posted:lol I googled found an update instead quote:Remember the manager back in 2016 whose best employee quit on the spot because he wouldn’t let her go to her college graduation? She had been raised in foster care and had no living family, was homeless for a while, and managed to get herself through school and graduate. He wanted to “teach her professional norms” (!!) after she quit because he wouldn’t give her the time off.

Years ago back in the Livejournal era, I stumbled upon this account that had a ton of Jonas Brothers/Band of Brothers fanfiction. Yes, the WW2 dudes. It had a bunch of the mid-2000s Disney show characters too. They all went to boarding school together. And the Band of Brothers were all teachers. I still remember this years later because it was just so loving weird. Anyway, I have no trouble believing this guy is for real.

No keeping track of who works when to ensure an even distribution of unpopular stuff like working weekends, just straight up the ones who've been here the longest get to pick and choose and the new ones can get hosed.

Halloween Jack posted:AITAH for not wanting to breakup my engagement with my fiance that happens to be my stepsister. The thing is, if it is "weird" then it is the parents who made it so in the first place by getting married and making the two lovers step siblings. All that had happened before then was a boyfriend and girlfriend who introduced their lonely parents in the hop that they would get along. Which is a good and wholesome thing. Just as those two parents getting along so well that they get married is a good and wholesome thing. Being pervy and prudish about the boyfriend and girlfriend continuing to date/get married is what's weird and wrong.

My Spirit Otter posted:lol I love it so much when brainwashed peons use corporate-speak. And it's always some "team leader" or "shift manager", i.e. the dipshits who are one step up from the very bottom of the ladder who fall for this poo poo the hardest. "I manage a team," no my dude, you manage a shift at a call centre. Nobody else considers you a "professional". You're not a doctor, architect, engineering, or lawyer. You got your job because you're the oldest and everyone else who started with you finished high school/uni and moved on. You're one of us peons, and us peons gotta stick together. Corporate will never respect you as their equal no matter how much you lord your one smidgeon of authority over us.

The seniority thing is bizarre to me because apparently the employee worked there for six years? And was still at the bottom of seniority somehow? What the gently caress kind of call center has that kind of retention, and lack of new hires? That's the most insane part of the story for me.

The manager references her being there for six years, and says she was homeless for a period when she was 18, but that is referenced as the past. My brain just hurts trying to figure out how in a call center job, an industry notorious for turnover, somebody isn't a senior employee after six years.

Just…wow. Pictures of the slanted straw that broke the camel’s back are at the link. Use of a level would have saved the towel rod but not the dying relationship. The argument that led to the dissolution of my my 7 year relationship I hung this, and it came out too crooked. One thing led to another, and it's been non stop arguing for 5 hours. This was in the new house we bought together. Good times. 🙃 https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/1c3nnep/the_argument_that_led_to_the_dissolution_of_my_my/

AITA for laughing at my dad for getting me a porn magazine for my birthdayquote:I turned 18 yesterday and like an hour after I’d opened my presents my dad handed me another gift. I opened it and it was some loving porn magazine from like the 90s or some poo poo. I laughed at him because I knew exactly why he got it me. I came out to my parents as gay a couple months ago and since then my dad has been trying to tell me how great women are I usually just ignore him though because i’m definitely 100% gay. I didn’t think he’d go this far to convert me, it’s funny as gently caress. He got upset at me for laughing at him and he told me I should be more appreciative and he said that this gift is to signify me becoming a man. I just kept laughing at him because it’s loving funny innit? Bro thought a gay guy would want a 30 year old straight porn magazine. I asked him where he even got it from because it’s mega old and he said he just got it from the corner shop. That is such a lie though lmao why would the corner shop sell old rear end porn mags? I go in there all the time and I have never in my life seen this poo poo before. Mega funny.

AITA for "exposing children to sinful music"?quote:I(17M) am coaching 2-3rd grade science olympiad. One of the kids asked me what my favorite song was, and I told him "Highway to Hell", which is true. Well apparently his family is Christian, and he went home and listened, and his mom was furious. Would I be TA for exposing him to "sinful music"? top comment posted:NTA but if that's your favorite song you need to listen to more music bro. It isn't even the best song BY AC/DC
