2024-11-06 22:00:28 +0000 UTCThis made me remember that years ago when I worked retail, a customer tried to recommend her dermatologist to me unprompted.

2024-11-04 02:07:10 +0000 UTC100% agree on the whole AI discussion. It’s crazy to see how my professors last year made it very clear that using AI was not okay and should not be used at all, to now this semester having professors encourage the use of AI to help us start out our assignments. I was kind of shocked when my psych lab prof was literally giving us a tutorial on how to use ChatGPT like I was genuinely so confused. I know some students who have told me that their professors expect them to use AI and that for some assignments it is required to use those softwares, which is literally insane to me idk.

2024-11-03 18:09:20 +0000 UTCThat lady sounds really fucking creepy and I’m sorry you have to deal with her bs! Her hounding your coworkers for your last name/acct and making weird comments about your HIV status is wild and imo beyond the realm of ‘cringey middle-aged woman behavior’. If you want to avoid talking to management or confronting her directly maybe just start ignoring her and being as boring/unresponsive as possible when you do have to talk to her?? It kinda sounds like she’s getting off on making you uncomfortable ugh

2024-11-03 02:42:13 +0000 UTCMore thoughts as I get further in the episode, I have out candy this year and it’s been like a couple years since I gave out candy and these young parents are like crazy, I saw toddlers trick or treating at 8pm!! I saw infants out and yes they can sleep I guess but like ummm why are these babies and toddlers and children out at 8 just cause what you want too that’s crazy

2024-11-02 18:40:03 +0000 UTCThe older woman is definitely a mentally ill that I don’t fully understand but definitely have dealt with, she is to be honest a little creepy with the camera comment like stalker weird

2024-11-02 18:07:11 +0000 UTC"People who have anything good serve as lightening rods for envy." - Paul Conti. I think this woman knows that she's making you uncomfortable and is feeding off of your reactions. Document her activity and try to 'gray rock' her because this is strange behavior. Definitely trust your instincts here.

2024-11-02 01:51:31 +0000 UTCchick fil a was my first ever job because my mom said i could choose either CFA or AMC (but my brother had worked at AMC and was always cleaning up puke, hence my choice) and you’re actually not at all required to say “my pleasure” it’s just a suggestion that the employee base has really latched onto for some reason

2024-11-02 01:50:32 +0000 UTCI’m with Kay on the coworker. The coworker sounds like she wants to get her ass kicked. I was appalled at her foisting the crown on you.

2024-11-01 14:47:04 +0000 UTCPls y’all I was the last caller and I was sitting on the toilet in my parents house about to say something slightly traumatizing. I sent another call after panicking to retract my statement and y’all did me right HHHH I’m usually not so breathy and slow 🙈

2024-10-31 05:58:07 +0000 UTCa meat bus movie review segment would be SO great…your alien Romulus and the substance reviews were fantastic and I’m so interested to hear more of ur thoughts on A Serious Man

2024-10-31 02:20:38 +0000 UTCyou guys are so right about the AI thing- evil and bad you will never catch me using that shit but i work for a school district in a major city (we have abt 50,000 students) and just received this in an email yesterday “At our October 29th Education Technologists (ET) meeting, we explored ways MagicSchool supports educators to understand the digital tools that leverage AI to increase instructional effectiveness and shift workload”

2024-10-31 00:58:09 +0000 UTCas a woman, i feel like when you’re sensing evil you just need to trust your gut on that. i think this woman is a fucking weirdo and that she is trying to fuck with you- whether she’s just like that or is going out of her way to be a freak doesn’t really matter like you said, you make a fuck ton of content and to pick your HIV status as what she brings up to you- at your workplace? and then saying BTW i’ve been telling people :) having discussions :) i definitely agree that it feels like she’s trying to get something to hold over you (not working but still very annoying)

2024-10-31 00:16:51 +0000 UTCThank you for the kind words on my voice 😭 That older lady is 100% just coming in to mess with retail employees, I used to get really frequently when I worked retail.

2024-10-30 13:54:14 +0000 UTCFUCK y’all would’ve loved my sister’s story…. it involved excessive earwax and being humiliated by nurses…

2024-10-30 13:13:55 +0000 UTCMiss Kay… mentioning your HIV status feels like harassment to me…
Cassidy
2024-10-30 11:57:55 +0000 UTCFrom what I understand (which tbf I don’t 😵💫) - Kay’s job is like, some sort of antique store where vendors can set up mini shops within the overall store? Kinda like a flea market? I assume this woman is a vendor which might explain the camera footage situation.
Dylan
2024-10-30 08:30:19 +0000 UTCI thought the cutoff is 1984

2024-10-29 23:38:17 +0000 UTCWait should the stalker customer get a job at a suicide hotline
Jean
2024-10-29 21:53:00 +0000 UTCIts a power trip
Jean
2024-10-29 21:41:52 +0000 UTCThis customer has absolutely crossed the line multiple times already, an explanation from management along with at least a temporary ban would be ideal outcome. Ive had enough customers who act like this to stop giving a fuck about their intentions or lack of friends
Jean
2024-10-29 21:40:59 +0000 UTCmy thoughts exactly, if we had a customer like this when I was a barista management would probably bar them from the store bc the tiktok shit feels so.... stalkerish like wtf
Lys Hixson
2024-10-29 21:30:11 +0000 UTCoh nvm the cutoff is EXACTLY 1981. sick and twisted
Lys Hixson
2024-10-29 21:28:39 +0000 UTCI'm pretty sure the cutoff for gen x is like 1979 bc i recently had to come to terms w the fact that I was raised by millenials (1981)
Lys Hixson
2024-10-29 21:27:39 +0000 UTCIt sounds like she's management adjacent and therefore you're completely in your right to tell her she's making you uncomfortable at work and that her comments are inappropriate.

2024-10-29 20:37:02 +0000 UTCLike Kay I can’t do naps I also sweat when I take a nap I wake up disoriented and somehow more tired, sometimes I get awful headaches too and then when I want to sleep at night I can’t anymore and just stay up
Melli
2024-10-29 17:31:04 +0000 UTCur not crazy kay. she’s doing the mean girl thing imo. and like alex said, it might be somewhat unintentional, but it’s definitely not entirely innocent— her behavior seems VERY passive aggressive (like, super passive. enough to not detect), which i think is the exact thing that drives you (and me, and so many other girls) crazy. the passive aggression is so passive that it’s not provable and makes you feel insane! especially when you try to tell someone about it! but i’d fucking tweak too if i had a customer like that, especially bc she can play it off as “being nice” or “making conversation” or “trying to be more open minded”. she’s fucking with you and she might not even be aware of it herself, but i think deep down she was irked by your disinterest in her
carm
2024-10-29 16:55:02 +0000 UTCWait so is this just a rando customer?????? Why she got cameras in the building???
Andrw
2024-10-29 16:50:03 +0000 UTCi wish your management at work would step in and not put you in this position of debating having to confront this person because this is workplace harassment full stop
naomi
2024-10-29 16:22:19 +0000 UTCthere was a lady at my job that gave me a pamphlet for laser hair removal and it has a very similar vibe im so sorry people act like this shes weaponizing her like "oo im out of touch! im just an old lady"
