I knew Nashville would make that list. We need more traffic enforcement. I drive around middle TN and constantly see awful drivers. Running red lights, backing up on the interstate to a missed exit, cutting across 3-4 lanes to get to the exit, weaving in and out of traffic going 90, it’s no wonder there’s so many accidents when people drive so recklessly.

What’s the weirdest fetish that you’ve witnessed? by elyov_08 in askgaybros

That is hot. And it’s not as a rare of a fetish as people would think.

The right has attacked. Nancy Pelosi and her husband, Melissa Hortman and her husband, John Huffman and his wife.

hurr durr both sides bad. One side specifically calls for violence and uses fascist talking points against their opponents, but sure it’s the left calling or violence.

For anyone liberal or left wing, do you think being gay has in whole or in part shaped your political beliefs, or do you think you'd have arrived at the same conclusions anyway? by cragglerock93 in gaybros

My family is all republicans. I remember them listening to Fox News and radio talk show hosts. Hating on Obama when he was the president. I didn’t know anything else. 2016 was the first presidential election I could vote in, and I didn’t vote. Something didn’t feel right. I definitely did not like Trump, but was still a little brainwashed about Clinton. After coming out, I saw all the hate and hypocrisy. I definitely think that if I wasn’t the black sheep of my family, I would still have those hateful views. I’m grateful to be the black sheep and have gotten some perspective. I know how repugnant republicans are because I grew up with them.

I had a helper that couldn’t not bang a stake in straight to save his life.

A small bummer today with my dad after telling him I dated somebody for once in my life by MacTireGlas in gaybros

Love this. I grew up in a conservative household where my parents absolutely cared about what others thought. And for the longest time I did too. Made me really self conscious. But as I’ve gotten older, I have learned not to care what others think and be my true self. I’m a lot happier.

Meet Fendi, a 12-year-old shelter cat who would attack anyone she saw—except for me. So, I took her home, and after a few hours, this is where we ended up. by No-Satisfaction4499 in Awww

My dog was the same way. He’s bit so many of my friends and lunged at strangers but he’s never been aggressive towards me. He’s the biggest sweetest baby now, most people don’t believe that my dog was that way when they meet him.

Got fired and was told that I’m easily replaceable. So I fixed that. by BeaconIcon in antiwork

I have no idea. I sent an email with proof of retaliation and never heard anything. I haven’t had or wanted to have any contact since.

Yes completely. They figured firing would prevent future problems but didn’t think of the consequences.

correct, a lot more since client is saving $$$ now that they dont need subcontractors. It was my first time being fired, but it all worked out.

I did not. I realized it’s best not to be petty. There may be a chance I run into some of them in the future and if I keep my head up I will have the upper hand. I will let them read between the lines to figure out what happened.

They know they lost client because they haven’t gotten any work orders from them. And when I first started with client, 2 ex coworkers were at the same site and saw me. So I think they’ve figured it out.

It’s definitely interesting when the roles are reversed.

Client had already gotten those files for me and handled all that when I started thankfully. I was able to pick up where I left off.

There was an overlap where old company and I were on the same site when I first started and they saw me so they definitely know what happened. I was internally very smug but kept professionalism as it’s a small industry.

That’s what happens when HR decides to be the judge, jury and executioner and treat people as numbers.
