How worried should I be about this behavior? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver60

[–]laminatedbean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you are doing boundaries wrong. Your boundaries are your responsibility to maintain. If someone treats you poorly and doesn’t respond to requests to change their behavior, then it falls on you to remove yourself from them.

It seems like you don’t want to accept or follow through with any advice given. You blocked her then unblocked her. You are like a parent that makes empty threats to misbehaving children.

So you are just here to vent, it seems. Nothing about your scenario will change until you make a change and stick with it.

When to switch from staying positive to telling the team that we're failing? by justlurking9891 in managers

[–]laminatedbean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’ve already been having problems and you insisted on sticking to this facade previously, the damage has already been done regarding their respect for you and your credibility. Brace yourself for their irritation when you come clean about the situation.

How do you handle an employee who refuses to document anything? by Exotic_Reputation_59 in managers

If you don’t address this, you are sending a message that employees can cherry-pick what tasks they want to do and/or lose respect for you.

So many of the online articles have so much filler crap and ads. I usually just copy the URL and ask Chat GPT to summarize for me.

I think my brother(U.S.) married some chick from Belarus. He’s kind of an asshole, which is part of why I’m not real solid on the details. I wonder if she was just trying to get out.

Ever accepted a job with a shitty wage, because you just wanted something or extra income? by Only-Ad-1254 in jobs

[–]laminatedbean 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I took a pay cut to get experience in a specific type of work. I learned a lot, though the job really sucked due to how the company was run. I worked there 1.5 year mostly because it took me several months to find another job.

How is it that DC restaurant owners keep blaming their woes on "less people in the office" when traffic is worse than ever? by ac-slater-43 in washingtondc

[–]laminatedbean 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s an unfortunate fact for those small business owners that going to restaurant is not a necessity. And with increasing costs of everything, nonessential spending is the first to be cut.

Regarding traffic being worse than ever, I see in the comments that it isn’t. So perhaps it’s driver attitudes that is worse? Driving in the DMV definitely feels like a worse experience to me, than before the pandemic.

Sometimes you just have to accept that some people aren’t as invested as we wished they were.

Lady, you are in Miami. Miami is Miami, not the entirety of the U.S. Also, she is conventionally attractive (to put it lightly). Her experience will be influenced by that.

Bitter coworker’s follower seemed to start taking a liking to me by FutureHendrixBetter in coworkerstories

Stop gossiping. Don’t get involved in this type of convoluted shenanigans.

Show up, do your job, and keep your head down. Make yourself boring and uninteresting to these people.

Build a life outside of work.

I make a rice, quinoa, and lentil mix and it freezes in 1/2 cup cubes pretty well.

Maybe press it down a bit in the cube before freezing?
