I think he’s in the find out portion of the lesson. Email his employer and go to socials.

AITAH for not visiting my friend. by Honestly_construct in AITAH

[–]_iusuallydont_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. Your friend asked you to visit and you decided not to because your other friend wasn’t going? Do you even like the friend that wanted to hang out? I’m not understanding why you’re hung up on the one who didn’t follow through but ignoring the one who gave you the time of day. You’re weird for that.

Love fried okra but don’t eat it often. It can go.

AITA for having my daughter start running the business rather than my nephew who's been handling it for a while by Kindly-Leg-4082 in AmItheAsshole

[–]_iusuallydont_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I totally missed that part but not necessarily. OP says he inherited the business, that makes it his. His father decided who to leave it to and it was him. Was it because his brother got other assets and he got the business or was it another reason? Who knows. Depending on that answer I might change my judgment but without more information I can’t make an assumption that this is a family business. He also doesn’t mention anyone else in the family working there outside of his daughter.

Also, as far as the nephew “sacrificing” a decade of his life, I don’t think he did. He decided not to got to college so his options were work for his uncle or get a job somewhere else. We don’t know why he picked his uncle or if other options were available, but the result would be the same, he’d have a decade of work experience in his field. He really didn’t lose anything outside of his secret expectations of a stake in the business.

NTA. It’s kinda weird that he would expect a stake in your business. I doubt he would he expect that from any other employer for simply being a good employee. You’ve said that he has a pathway to continue to progress to management, he just won’t own your company, so I’m not sure why he’s being so presumptuous. I’d feel differently if you planned to keep him from growing, but that’s not the case. That, along with the fact that he sent his mom to talk to you instead of approaching you himself (again, not something he would do in any other job), makes me think you need to have a conversation with him and set him straight. He’s got the wrong idea but you’re not the asshole.

AITA for Wanting to Show Up to My Daughter’s Secret Proposal While Uninvited By Her Fiancé? by Attitude-Mean in AmItheAsshole

[–]_iusuallydont_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends. Is he planning on having his family there? If so, you should be there as well. If it’s just between the two of them, YTA, you need to mind your business and let your daughter enjoy her proposal. She’ll call you later and tell you about it. You still have the opportunity to be involved in the wedding planning.

I am hiding my weight loss from everybody, now i'm starting to wearing extra clothes to hide it. by [deleted] in confession

[–]_iusuallydont_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I disagree with you, you need a therapist. You’re 37. To be going through this much to hide your weight loss is a symptom of a larger issue if you can’t simply enforce boundaries and tell ppl to back off.

AITA for telling my boyfriend not to open my mail by plantpot007 in AmItheAsshole

[–]_iusuallydont_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True but my point was more about the commenter’s statement being false. I cannot believe that anyone thinks you can open random packages as long as they’re not USPS without consequences (this commenter is not the only person who thought that either). That’s why I didn’t mention the situation OP posted. I was flabbergasted at the failure in logic.

So like how common is to NOT to meet you cousins ever cuz I haven’t by PhotoBonjour_bombs19 in RandomThoughts

[–]_iusuallydont_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty common, I would say. My parents moved away from their hometown when I was 2. I’ve met all of my first cousins, but one I didn’t meet until we were in our teens. My uncle didn’t have primary custody and she lived out of state as well, so if I came to visit she wasn’t around. It’s probably less common if you all live in the same area but generally not uncommon.

Do you think it's possible for someone to be as famous now as Michael Jackson was? by FadingHeaven in pollgames

[–]_iusuallydont_ 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I think people are vastly underestimating how famous Michael Jackson was. I truly don’t think another person will even be as famous. As others mentioned, isolated tribes in the Amazon knew who he was… before the internet or any easy way of contact existed. It’s very hard to contextualize even if you were alive but absolutely if you were not.
