Got drunk and hooked up with a married customer during an event. He said he didn’t know the customer was married (no wedding ring). It was my first job out of college and I learned from the sales team that it’s widely known at these events that people “forget” their wedding rings for this exact reason. I guess he wasn’t fired because it was consensual, but weird because customer and her husband were running a family business so technically both of them were our customers.

They might run away from fire in fear

I wouldn’t initiate or invite, but if I just happen to be in the same room with myself it would be fine. It would be mostly quiet and we do our own thing, or the occasional silly philosophical or metaphorical discussions but probably nothing real or deep. Or maybe it’ll be a free therapy session, having 2 brains figure out my emotions

It also annoys me that my insurance groups chiro together with physio so people might think that they’re alternatives to each other. I had a colleague who said “physio just gives you exercises/homework while chiro fixes you on the spot”

Went to a pretty strict school with uniform/dresscode in Asia. One of the rules is we’re not allowed to dye our hair. One of my high school teachers was convinced that all Asians have black hair, so my hair that’s very slightly brown under sunlight cannot be natural. It’s so subtly brown that most people would say I have black hair. It’s just that he saw me under the sun with my friends who had blacker hair than me that he assumed I died my hair.

At first he gave me a written warning. I thought it was stupid so I ignored it. The next time I had his class, he pulled me aside and told me he was gonna send me home cos I still hadn’t dyed my hair back to black. I’d never really been in trouble at school so I didn’t even know what I was supposed to do. Since he was teaching a class, he sent me to the teachers lounge and find someone there and tell them I’m supposed to be sent home. Luckily the teacher I found there was someone who liked me and when I told her about the issue she just laughed and said that’s stupid. She let me hang out with her until the end of the period so I didn’t have to deal with the other teacher until she got a chance to talk to him.

Just started watching Your Friends & Neighbors on Apple TV. Not bad. Not amazing. Decent to watch with the hubby when we’re relaxing after dinner.

We’re also interested in Murderbot but want to wait until the whole season is available

I like 13 more than 11 and 12…

I agree. It was a slog for me to finish his run. Capaldi was exciting in the beginning, had some great episodes, but still a bit rough. I think I just personally don’t like Moffat as a show runner.

My husband is on the “Donna is annoying” camp. Which is totally understandable especially since she basically screamed every line during her first appearance. He softened up on her later on cos she’s funny but still thinks she’s mostly annoying

I think Martha is underrated. She’s a doctor, actually brings knowledge/expertise, and still has the human compassion aspect that Rose and Donna rely on. Her only flaw is that she had a crush on the Doctor and he didn’t reciprocate.

Just finished Andor today and have Rogue One up next. My husband and I aren’t Star Wars fans but that was enjoyable.

Not quite sure what to watch next but I think we have a few queued up on Apple TV+

I believe it’s true too that other people might notice first. I think it might be because we look at the mirror often, especially when working out, and don’t notice the small changes our body has gone through during the process. But when you see someone you haven’t seen in weeks, the difference is much more noticeable

In college, guy went to the bathroom, found a lighter in his pocket and started lighting toilet paper on fire while on the toilet. No idea how long he was in there but it was bad enough that the fire sprinklers went off and flooded the basement and first floor. The guy got kicked out of the dorm, but don’t know what else happened or how much it cost.

Do you have any recommendations for a good pair of earplugs?

Should be on Disney+

Stitch has also infiltrated Marvel

There was also a Thunderbolts* poster or ad that was broken through by stitch but I couldn’t find where I saw that picture

Unfortunately video is not available in my country. Any quick recap?

I live in Australia but working remotely for a US tech company.

• Unlimited PTO (company policy) that my boss encourages to take. If I take less than 4 weeks then I get paid (Australian policy)
• Unlimited sick days
• 16 weeks maternity leave at full pay (company policy), or 24 weeks at national minimum wage (~AUD 185/day) for Australian policy. Up to 12 months unpaid

I usually take 6-8 weeks a year of PTO and for maternity leave I’ll take the 16 weeks paid, and 8 extra weeks unpaid/minimum wage (depending on my spouse’s situation)

One thing I noticed about them when I was visiting Perth is how silent they are. When people are using them on footpaths, I as a pedestrian had almost no indication that there’s one about to pass from behind unless the rider speaks up. So turning or stopping on footpaths felt quite dangerous. Almost got hit by one when I was trying to walk into a shop and someone whizzed by. Maybe if they’re more common around Sydney I’d learn how to notice them better but that experience scared me a bit.

Yeah I thought it is doing well. Reviews have been pretty good and word of mouth seems to be decent as well. This is 100% a spoiler for those who haven’t watched it. I did think it’s quite soon from its release to them revealing it publicly like this though
