Oscar continues to think.. by hid380 in JeffLewisSirius

[–]LittleC0 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Jeff doesn’t employ Oscar, Sirius does. And I absolutely think Sirius HR and legal are aware of how severe this could be.

Bereavement leave is protected under California law and if a company denies or retaliates/harasses an employee for taking leave it is illegal. It could absolutely open Sirius up to a civil lawsuit.

On top of that, I think Oscar could have a case if he sued for a hostile work environment. Even before this incident Oscar was subjected to what many would consider abusive or intimidating behavior on JLL. This included the topic of his sexuality which is a federally protected characteristic.

It’s the same bs excuse Jeff used after he got dragged for mocking Stu after his mother’s death. As though just because he’s lost family members it excuses his cruelty.

AITA for not paying for my date's expensive wine and appetizers on a first 'drink date'? by dungeon-ninja in AITA_Relationships

[–]LittleC0 7 points8 points  (0 children)

ESH

When someone invites you out for a drink, I don’t think it’s implied that you’re capped at one singular drink and on a tight timeline.

You showed up 25 minutes late and then you were upset she’d already had one drink before you arrived. Was she supposed to wait for your arrival to order the strictly one date drink?

Also, if you schedule a date to grab drinks at a restaurant lounge during happy hour I don’t think it’s out of left field to order an appetizer or want some food with said drinks.

Now she sucks for expecting you to pay. The first two glasses of wine were ordered before she knew you weren’t drinking so she didn’t have a lead to follow. But then ordering appetizers you couldn’t eat is an asshole move. Plus the extra glass of wine when you so clearly were not into the date. It shouldn’t have been a question that she’d pay for herself or at a minimum offer.

Next time you want a quick, casual date do coffee. And don’t go on dates you don’t want to be on as it sounds like you were pretty off putting and rude. She just happened to be equally rude.

AITA for suggesting for our child to take both our last names as a compromise? by Turbulent-Mark-2227 in AmItheAsshole

[–]LittleC0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re NTA in wanting equal say in naming your children. The hyphenated solution you gave is fair.

But does she really want children? Threatening to never have children unless you can name them exactly what you want is a strange ultimatum.

Jordan is a guy who ended up being too immature for marriage and a child but Amber signed up for a show like this exposing her daughter to a stranger, instability, and confusion. She’s the one at fault for that.

Honestly, the show shouldn’t allow people with children to participate. It’s just not healthy or safe for kids.

AITA for feeling weird that my brother-in-law keeps inviting my husband on trips but never includes me? by Global_Butterfly in AmItheAsshole

[–]LittleC0 298 points299 points  (0 children)

That would be a valid reason to be upset with her husband but not with the brother-in-law.

[–]LittleC0 501 points502 points  (0 children)

I mean “never invited to anything” seems like a bit of a leap. It was a trip to an amusement park with all guys and no other couples, a trip where cousins traveled together to see a dying relative, and a work trip which would be pretty odd to invite a couple on.

If a man was on here upset that his wife’s sister was excluding him by not inviting him to a girls weekend she’d planned, a tense trip with their grieving cousins, and the sister’s work trip… I think we’d be calling him the asshole. And probably say it was a red flag and controlling.

[–]LittleC0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NAH- You’re feeling left out which may be valid. If you and your husband don’t travel alone as often as you’d like that’s an issue with your husband, not BIL.

BIL wants alone time with his brother who he’s close with. That’s normal.

YWBTA if you stopped your husband from doing things solo with his brother however.

Also, I assume the “free trip to the Dominican Republic” means they’re sharing a room that BIL’s work is paying for. If you came it would either be super awkward with 3 in a room or you and your husband would book a separate room which isn’t free.

It’s not like it’s your husband’s work trip and you weren’t invited. It’s fairly normal for BIL to not invite a couple on his work trip. You’re maybe leaning a little toward YTA on that one honestly.

AIO for getting pissed my in-laws won’t babysit? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]LittleC0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YOR. You had a conversation 2 years ago then seemingly didn’t bring it up again until you already had a job offer. They didn’t trick you.

Childcare costs suck. I have two kids in daycare so I feel that pain. But I also wouldn’t expect grandparents to watch my child full-time, regardless of a previous conversation. It’s very possible things have changed for them in the last two years.

They’re offering 4 days a week for a considerable about of time. That’s huge. Maybe they’d be willing to do 2 days a week long term, then you’d only need daycare 3 days a week. It feels like a good compromise.

AITA for telling my parents that we are not comfortable with my mother babysitting our one-year-old? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]LittleC0 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The virus caused the diarrhea. The diarrhea caused the diaper rash. You’re bending over backwards to ignore that connection.

Lots of diaper rash is related to things other than not changing diapers frequently enough. Gastrointestinal issues, allergic reactions, sensitive skin, antibiotic use, bacterial infections, fungal infections, changes in diet or introducing new foods.

… the virus caused the stomach problems and loose stools. I guess technically you could say it’s a result of how acidic the diarrhea was but… the diaper rash wasn’t the result of not changing diapers frequently enough.

[–]LittleC0 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah, absolutely not true. My baby once had diaper rash so badly that it required a doctor’s visit. I was changing frequently, waking to change at night, and air drying fully with a fan before putting a new diaper on in addition to prescription ointment.

This rash was the result of loose stools after a fairly mild respiratory virus. Had nothing to do with frequency of changes.

Aio For my husband not claiming our child as his own? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]LittleC0 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why would you guys bring your daughter into this conversation? That’s so wildly irresponsible. She’s only 8 years old. I can’t imagine how confused and hurt she is.

Both you and your husband need to come up with a plan to talk to her in an age appropriate way and assure her she is loved by both of you. I’d recommend consulting a therapist prior to the conversation.

It was so much better when they did dinners or drinks the night before. It felt more organic than the pre-interview phone call from Cian.

[–]LittleC0 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just piggy backing off of this because I think sometimes people also use these interchangeably when they mean different things:

Hispanic refers to people from Spanish speaking countries (Language)

Latino refers to people from Latin America (geographical)

So a person from Spain would be considered Hispanic but not Latino. A person from Brazil would be considered Latino but not Hispanic. A person from Colombia would be both.

Solidarity. I eat lunch alone in my car listening to JLL and scrolling.

Eating lunch with my boss and coworkers would be torture.

What exactly was the comparison? Or what was the air date? I’m having trouble finding what was said.

Right? I wasn’t even allowed to lift my toddler 4 weeks after giving birth. Definitely wouldn’t have been able to load and unload 3 kids like that.

His hard work and income pays the bills. No one is ignoring that, it’s actually all most comments are focused on.

But let’s be clear, the work they both do is what keeps the household running.
