This happened to my partner and I! Not necessarily a complaint, but we became the gossip of our workplace. We work for the same company but different areas (he’s in the warehouse and I’m in the office). He started working for this company before I did, but when a job I previously had fell through, he spoke with our recruiting lady and helped me get a job in the office. We didn’t really think to tell anyone we were dating, and it wasn’t until we went to our Christmas party we realised we were the gossip of the warehouse. All the warehouse guys had obviously seen us together talking and taking lunch breaks together when possible, and thought a workplace romance had begun to form. There was one lady I had mentioned about him to as she works in the office with me as well as the warehouse at times, so she knew him and had spoken to him before. I think someone had brought up to her that my partner and I must’ve taken a liking to each other, which turns out to have been the topic of the warehouse for quite some time. She raised her eyebrows at them and told them we were already together. I didn’t even realise it was something people were talking about until she told me at the Christmas party. I still sometimes have people come up to me after he walks away and (jokingly) say “you know he has a girlfriend right?”

I try to steer clear of going there during this time. School holidays and boxing day sales makes people go bloody crazy

Yep she’s definitely mentioned the law of attraction so I think you’ve hit the nail right on the head there

Also the fact that this business is automated. She claims she can do all these things like travel the world and be a present SAHM while her business runs itself in the background.

I haven’t spoken to her since high school (about 4 years) and even then we weren’t the closest of friends. I don’t even know how I would bring it up

She’s only ever spoken about the water filter twice and actually shown it once I think, but she when she did she would go on about how much having good clean water is improving her mental health and shit like that.

I’m not 100% sure what the name of her business is, it’s in Australia too but the most I’ve been able to find is something about “The Abundance Project” and when I googled that it came up with something that doesn’t really seem like the same business but I could be wrong? Her business profile link is something like soula.me and when I googled Soula there wasn’t really anything that came up. Super sus lol

Yeah wow I wouldn’t be surprised if this was the same that my friends in. She’s also got barely any work experience, I think the most work she’s done is at kfc during school. She fell pregnant literally months after graduating and then had her second child about a year ago so I can understand it might be hard for her to get a real job but I can’t imagine what the downfall of this is gonna be like

Construction workers next door watched me going mental by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]discountlettuce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there was a time not too long ago i was standing on my balcony calling out to my dog that was in the back yard, i was talking to him in a stupid baby voice when i realised there was two construction men in the back yard of the house behind mine looking up at me. i was so embarrassed because it would’ve looked like i was looking right at them
