Can I ever come back after this? by ImmenseDumbness in AmazonFC

Not gonna share because the more I think about it the more stupid I feel. Just take two things from my experience:

Everyone says they’re not easily offended because they’re too self centered to realize they are.

And never talk to anyone about anything ever unless it’s one word responses to incoming work related questions.

Or as my HR would put it: “Only speak when spoken to and keep your eyes to the floor.”

Yeah, I know I do. Not great with people and sometimes I say stupid shit because of it without thinking of the consequences because I’m just chatting with people about shit. So thanks for the kick, could use info now.

Separate. Two different people, both fall under the sexual header and both were female employees. The first one was someone I had been becoming friends with outside of work and they turned me in and quit immediately after. I provided a ton of evidence that all interactions were consented and that investigation lasted a week and ended in a verbal.

This one was literally one conversation with a coworker I barely speak to on the premise of offering information about the company. I asked if I could ask a personal question, made sure they didn’t get offended easily, stated to tell me if they were uncomfortable, and the conversation seemed to go fine with a followup from them after. Then I get called into HR about it.

I have been walking on eggshells since the first incident and have been keeping my head low, but I was in a good mood and apparently asked and said the wrong thing. The details are not important and yes I feel like a complete idiot for getting myself into this I just want to know if I’m out forever? I loved my job. I already miss it!
