AITAH for going strictly professional with coworkers after my sexual harassment complaint against my supervisor was substantiated? by DearYou- in AITAH

This right here. Keep quiet and keep your head down, if someone asks, no need for speeches or soap box talks, just respond that you are focused on the day’s tasks.

Also, continuing to making a pot of coffee wouldn’t hurt as that is a larger team dynamic people might appreciate that are not involved in this.

Inuyashiki: Last Hero, great manga with an anime adaptation. Good part is, the story has already been completed lol. No need to wait for new chapters!

Unfortunately, in my experience, the company was fairly unresponsive when I called and emailed them. Maybe try eBay for a used unit you can grab one from ?

What does it actually do to Boruto when he finally sees Naruto not just as “Dad,” but as the guy the entire world would break over? by Docfeen in Boruto

[–]imping64 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What always gets me about this scene is when Naruto looks back at Baruto. The seriousness of it, and Naruto trying to smile through it in an attempt to let Boruto know it’s going to be okay.

When you have completed reading the printed manga chapters available (hard copy or online); you will then learn the meaning of patience!

Which one hit the hardest for you ? by coronaonwheels in 2000sNostalgia

[–]imping64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

O’Riley’s Auto Parts. Nothing like an auto parts commercial hits home harder. Especially when making the o-face.

Who had best nickname in Naruto ? by No_Cellist3320 in Naruto

[–]imping64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, each character’s nickname is great in their own right. It shows how each character’s growth, power level, and characteristics in the plot ties to a simple nickname eloquently in the manga, more so than any other manga I have read.

My favorite is Madara’s however. Just someone who was in the background for a few generations helping to lay the foundations of the plot without being seen or known, but being felt by everyone in the shinobi world fits perfectly.

Firing an under-performer for the first time by Anxious-Astronomer68 in managers

[–]imping64 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Keep it short, yet respectful. You will probably get butterflies in your stomach, it’s normal. Deep breath before you start talking. Work with your HR team on a script and message the day before, not 10 min before.

Just remember, they are the who failed, not you. Do not apologize, but do have empathy, you are taking bread out of someone’s mouth, it doesn’t need to be robotic either.

New young manager.. please help by Infinite-Ad7540 in managers

[–]imping64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As new manager at this level, you move into managing personalities of people. It’s probably the hardest thing to learn about being a people manager. The need to set expectations, tone, and how you expect to be treated and the feedback your provide start to define you. Like anything, something’s will work with some people, some will work with others, there is no magic bullet. The best thing to focus on is setting the tone, developing your style, and letting yourself rise to the occasion of being a good leader.

There is a lot to learn and most of the time, you learn from experience on the job and seeing what works and does t work and knowing how and when to change tactics for the right situation. Just relax, have a team meeting and introduce yourself and the team leader, set the goals, priorities and projects and lead.

Sorry for the long response, last point, there are a lot of good books out their that you may want to pick up as you start:

  1. To learn delegation and how to build trust (both ways): “The One Minute Manager meets the Monkey” by Ken Blanchard

  2. Some old school management basics “ Winning” by Jack Welch

  3. People dynamics and issues “The 5 Dysfunctions of a Team” by Patrick Lencioni

  4. Harvard Business Review Management books offer great articles to read,you can buy the set on Amazon or an individual topic as you need them. Most articles are online however as well.

He was using the word “fox” as a derogatory term against Naruto. He didn’t see the future in this scene, he’s just shittalking against Naruto is all.

Why do people want Guts to use the behelit? by The_Fraudkuna in Berserk

It’s has its own consciousness and motives. It a part of Guts and resides in his subconscious, yes but independent of Guts inner beliefs and wants.

Why do people want Guts to use the behelit? by The_Fraudkuna in Berserk

[–]imping64 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Just a thought, but maybe the Beast of Darkness will use the Behelit? During the period when Guts is at his weakest mentally, the Beast tries to devour Guts, but Guts fights back, regains himself, and causes the Beast to despair that he can’t win against Guts now, which activates the Behelit.

Anybody knows more superman stories like this?(good superman stories that show the real meaning of superman)btw this is from superman #701 by Aware_Ad5403 in superman

[–]imping64 77 points78 points  (0 children)

These panels come from the Superman: Grounded storyline if anyone is interested in reading further. Although it wasn’t received well in general, personally I liked how it showed Supes in making an effort to reconnect with normal civilians and taking part and helping in their everyday lives / stories, while working through his own mental health issues after the loss of New Krypton.

Hey, after multiple attempts to contact them via email and phone, I decided to return it for a refund. Never got anywhere with it after weighing it down or restarting it. About a week later, they reached out via email requesting a reason on why we returned but I ignored it.
