  • I thought I was a monster for always just going to the first available.

    In a nearly full bathroom my bosses bosses boss did that at the conference for just our company, while continuing his phone conversation that was clearly work related as he held the phone to his ear. Then left without washing his hands.

    I'm not a monster, not even close.

  • A lady we used to be friends with was like this.

    She was too intense for us so we stopped hanging out with them and then our house cleaner (that we both used) told us they quit.

    Turns out our ex friend was too intense about getting the house clean for our house cleaner and we had to promise not to tell the friend that our cleaner still worked for us to keep her.

    Claudia clean day has been going on every other Wednesday several years strong and we're very happy with her!

    But seriously, how bananas do you have to be about getting things clean for a house cleaner to say "this is too much"?

  • Thank you!

  • Totally agree!

  • This is the right answer! 🤣🤣🤣

    And now I want to see the CEO doing just this.

  • You have ten seconds to comply! [Mechanical Growl]

  • 😄

  • You don't have to lie forever! You could totally Santa Clause it. Like I did with my kids, and Santa Clause. 🤣🤣🤣

    Otherwise yeah fuck them.

  • Oh I've been guilty of that. Makes a lot of sense!

    Feels like it's the phone call without the text of 10 years ago or the popin without a call in the 90s.

    I'm learning! Old people can learn, sometimes 😂

  • Oh! Saving! Thank you. As an old (ish) person I love learning this stuff!

  • Thank you, I've saved this to come back to next time I want to share something like this.

  • Oh wow, I'll do that. Thank you!

  • I feel like I need a sword and a catch phrase, a corny one, like "I have the power!" to go with that title 😂😂😂

  • I've wondered if I'm at fault for the decline in content on artshare. Do I share too often or too much?

    Because of the thinning of that community I've started spreading out to Bluesky looking for a larger community. Mastadon is pretty thin and I find it hard to find a community there at all sadly.

  • 😂

  • Oh sorry, it was foul play. Two men grabbed him off the street, forced him to take them to his hotel room. They killed him (maybe let him die of a heart attack from the stress of the moment) and took his stuff and left. Just a totally random thing. I'm told they were caught and found guilty of murder.

    I'm not exactly sure how he died, I heard conflicting answers from people closer to him than I was at the time. But to me he was murdered either way.

  • I was asked by my boss to interview this person who he thought would be perfect in the open position I had. He thought the world of her. The interview was really good, I saw what he saw. She had said more than once that her team was like a family, which was odd but I didn't know better yet.

    We walked back to her office and passed by her team. We stopped at her top performer and she highlighted how great they are and proud of treating everyone as family and the look on his face said it all. She's so full of shit and the contempt he had for her was barely containable. And she didn't even fucking notice!

    As someone who's been in management for 3+ decades I can firmly tell you if your leader tells you that, RUN!

    Or get them fired. This job market is a bitch so quitting may not be the best option.

    Edit: I didn't hire her. Less than a year later HR fired her after an investigation. I don't know any of the details and wouldn't share if I did. Dodged that bullet.

    I also told my boss what I saw and he commended me for my choice.

    Unrelated this boss (who I will think very highly of) was on vacation in Greece a few years later and was murdered in his hotel room. Still haunts me today.

  • I remember... The before times.
