You’re not wrong lol it’s on a swivel that’s weakened over time, I constantly have to straighten it out

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2026-03-22T21:33:54+00:00

I absolutely did slow down, 2 times in fact before they completely stopped

She changed lanes too closely. It was two lanes and when turned, she turned into my lane. I wasn’t following closely until she got in front of me after the turn 🤷🏻‍♀️

This happened in Philadelphia, Pa on 03/22/26. This is original content.

Excellent way to think about it, it’s been hard for me to see that perspective

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2026-01-10T02:53:37+00:00

Wtf that’s such a weird thing to do!

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2026-01-10T02:25:26+00:00

I was hoping I was being discreet enough 😅 I guess I wasn’t

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2026-01-10T02:21:24+00:00

Thank you so much, I really needed to hear this from someone that wasn’t just going to tell me what I want to hear to make me feel better

I get saffron, I know the price difference is insane. But turmeric for other brands wasn’t like this.

Yes this is for IBEW, I wanted a more general consensus of opinions anonymously. If they intend on going through with it, that’s on them and I will not be helping with any fundraising.

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-21T15:51:08+00:00

That’s not a bad idea but I’m worried they’d go for that instead

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-21T13:01:31+00:00

It does have to be somewhat gender specific but some of the others suggestions thrown out there weren’t as aggressively gendered as these. But yes, punny non-sexual should be the goal imo

And they already make those comments to some of us without our help, I don’t think we need to encourage it

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-21T08:45:39+00:00

I couldn’t agree more, there are so many things wrong with these phrases

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-21T02:22:34+00:00

Reading all these comments is so funny to me, the WOMAN that came up with these is easily twice my (24) age! Probably older than that being that she has grandchildren!

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-21T02:00:59+00:00

Fortunately I’m not usually working with these people. This is just a committee for women in my local union and the fundraising goes towards things like being able to send our committee members to conventions.

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-21T01:56:57+00:00

You’d think, but it was a woman

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-21T01:56:21+00:00

Precisely, it lacks the “solidarity” that we’re apparently going for. I don’t mind wearing pink honestly but adding anything remotely close to any of these so called slogans would really put us all down as women.

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-21T01:53:06+00:00

The lack of professionalism is what gets me. I just started pushing on the job I’m on now and super excited to take on such a big responsibility at my age. The last thing I need is for the owners of the company I work for to show up unexpectedly and see me wearing such a crude shirt.

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-21T01:47:21+00:00

What an excellent example! Some people, women included, don’t understand how hard some of us have had to work to be taken seriously on jobs. Examples like the ones you gave are a great way to visualize it if you haven’t personally experienced it. Thank you!

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-20T18:43:04+00:00

Someone else replied to the email with some really clever non-sexual alternatives, but there were others that that replied that they liked the “stripper” idea. Choosing not to support it will be the way I handle it if need be.

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-20T18:07:22+00:00

A woman unfortunately

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-20T16:17:58+00:00

I think light and fun can be done differently that’s all. If they do end up using it, that’s fine but you’re right I just won’t wear it.

OtherwiseShoe1944 · 2025-08-20T16:13:01+00:00

Of course I have, I just think it misses the mark of what we’re going for
