  • When I was a middle manager I handled most of the communication with my team via teams or email. We had a 1 on 1 every other week and I was available otherwise if a meeting was necessary but otherwise all I needed was quick updates on where they were at with various projects we had going on. My boss on the other hand was constantly pulling me into shit I didn’t need to be involved in. I had reporting available at hand I could have sent them whenever they needed it but they didn’t know what to do with themselves if their schedule wasn’t full.




  • I still remember my teacher bitching me out in front of the class when we were learning negative numbers because when he asked me how I figured out the correct answer I said that the positive numbers and negatives cancelled each other out. Like -4 and positive 5, the negative 4 cancels out 4 on the positive side and you are left with 1. Maybe that wasn’t the correct verbiage but it gave me the correct answer every time. He was a dick about correcting me though.









  • Like, really, what should our incel friend do with their time?

    Can’t speak for every incel friend but the one in our group needs to be working on regulating his emotions and not spending so much time on incel forums. Getting comfortable with himself and the fact that not every woman who is nice to him is going to be interested him romantically. He’s in his 30s and still acts like a fucking teenager when he gets rejected. At least 3 of us at different points in time have had to pull him aside and have a talk to him about how his behavior is making the women in our group uncomfortable and explain that if he doesn’t get that shit under control he’s not going to get invited out anymore. Even when he does take up a hobby or work on himself he talks about it like he’s checking off a box so that he can finally deserve to get laid. Then, when that doesn’t work out for him because he reeks of desperation when he interacts with women, he goes back to his bad habits.
