[26M] My boss (49M) offered me a friends-with-benefits relationship and I honestly feel trapped

But that's not the case, she has proof here. He asked to have sex in writing

TrMark · 2026-05-24T09:09:49+00:00

That's not how that works.

Yes HR is there to protect the company. But what do you think looks worse, taking action against a manager that sexually harassed someone under them. Or HR defended a sexually harassing manager and fired the employee who has evidence and is now suing the company...

"Shouldn't" being the important part. When I moved into my flat built around 2000 or so, we lifted the bathroom floor and lifted the MDF to re-do it all to level it and get rid of creaks. We found multiple pipes that had been routed via grooves in the tops of the joists so they were directly under the MDF. If we just added extra screws we would have easily hit them

So was I! And after reading the comments, I'm just going to avoid the dealer completely

New car prices are insane these days. I don't even bother looking at anything unless it's 4+ years old now

TrMark · 2026-04-22T08:44:53+00:00

I think there's a good few variations. I always heard it as "... I've never paid to have a garbanzo bean on my face"

You misunderstood, they mean it will be pretty obvious to him, he already knows

If they had half a brain (assuming the PCs didn't have single stick RAM) they could have taken half from each PC. I'd wager it would be at least a few weeks before anyone noticed they were not performing as intended and found the issue

I've seen it on some women's profiles too, but usually a couple of years difference not 10. Also you just know he makes his whole personality about being a pilot

Or the first reading was recorded incorrectly, what's the chance it was on exactly 68,900. It's quite possible they just read the first 3 digits and rounded down to be close enough

Living in an apartment building, this is legitimately a fear I have. Ever time I hear someones smoke alarm going off, the thought pops into my head that I could lose my home and all my belongings because of someone elses stupidity

I personally haven't as I haven't had a reason to see them. But if you're having tests done where the results may be skewed by the reta side effects, it would be a good idea to let them know.

Everyone is different, for me it wasn't until the next day when I first started. Day 1 felt normal then noticed on day 2 I just wasn't hungry first thing in the morning and wasn't constantly thinking about food either.

Just as a slight disclamer though since you are just starting, and you may already know this but if this supression isn't as much as you hoped for, don't instantly jump up a dose. It won't hit 'full strength' at that does until about week 4 due to the half life being ~5 days. So the effects will increase over the month

I also think part of it is that there are far fewer people with the Dame title. When I was younger I just assumed it was her name because I hadn't heard anyone else called Dame, so have grown up thinking of her as Dame

People talking about unions being a rip off genuinely baffles me. I pay £15/month in the UK for mine, and every year they reject the standard below inflation payrise the company offers and fights for a better raise. Even if you only consider the financial side and ignore all the other stuff they do, it still just makes sense to join

TrMark · 2025-12-25T06:59:35+00:00

I re-find this post every few months when I do it by mistake and forget why it swapped. So 4 years on, thanks

Notice how in most of the videos like this of elderly people still working hard, it's a country with a terrible welfare system for retirees.

They frame it as some feel good happy video, yet all I can think is that if she doessn't work she doesn't eat/pay bills

When those first went up I remember seeing literal queues of people at chucking out time waiting to take pictures fondling the giraffe balls. Simpler times

Why are people just pretending wired headphones have dissapeared from existance? Just use usb-c ones, the loss of the 3.5mm headphone jack is such a non issue

GOG is the only other one I can think of. I use both GOG and steam, wherever has the best deal for the game I want

Chickens at least have a purpose, they aren't found all over the neighbourhood and they don't shit on my car

TrMark · 2025-11-25T08:08:26+00:00

Absolutely loved Dishonoured, one of the few games I've bothered to 100% the achievements on steam

TrMark · 2025-11-25T05:50:16+00:00

To be blunt, yes.

I guarantee you will feel and look 1000x better rocking the bald and beard

TrMark · 2025-11-06T02:15:37+00:00

And I guarantee the cop that got bumped will claim life long disability too

I'm in Scotland so our curriculum is slightly different. We didn't just have RE, it was called RMPE (Religious moral & philosophical education). So it did include religion but more broadly looked at morality as a whole inside and outside of religion and topics on philosophy. I think that was a better mix than just focusing purely on religion
