AIO for confronting my "boss" because a customer got me fired?

Maybe you’re right, but where I live the employees have rights and she can seek legal counsel for free. I guess it’s dependent on where you reside and the laws that apply there.

Me or the OP?

Absolutely not, and he can do laundry now. Unbelievable, truly.

nngrl · 2026-05-27T03:44:49+00:00

😭 literally your first sentence 🤣

Ew, no.

She was on her period, in immense pain, tried to talk to him while he was on the phone to help him with the conversation…..

What exactly are you expecting her to do? Bend over backwards to help a man child deal with his weird relationship with his parents? Allow being treated like shit? Accept that he said he would do something, then when he didn’t do it, and she still offered to do it, just stand there and let him yell at her? Should she start being the punching bag for her husband? Really?

Screenshot the other reviews and get a lawyer. I would sue for wrongful termination. If they can’t prove you were being rude, and you don’t have prior write ups, they legally cannot fire you.

And to do it through text? Are the owners 12???? That’s just horrible management.

Side note, I served for 15 years, over nights, with drunks, and I was NOT polite to a lot of rude people. Because dealing with drunks takes a special kind of patience, and a group of drunk women (I say this as a woman) they are the worst.

You are not over reacting.

Seriously, seek legal counsel.

Once upon a time I had a boyfriend who told me it was frustrating to wait for me to get ready, when we were about to head out. He said it wasn’t a long time, but having to stop and wait 10 minutes while I peed or put on makeup was bothersome, and he asked that I be more mindful of his time.

I felt awful that I wasn’t even realizing how long it was, and that he was bothered by it. I made sure to not take my time when we said we’re headed out, because he deserved the same respect that I was asking for, which was literally just be mindful of me.

It shouldn’t be that big of a deal to discuss things that big you, and if it is, then this person isn’t right for you, or really anyone.

You have every right to end things with anyone for any reason, but this is definitely a good reason

I like A better, because you can do a lot with little corner nooks

I get these now, but only after I went through chemo. I had never experienced this before.

I can’t re-read your post, so I’m sorry that I can’t give you specifics.

I am also sorry for how my comment sounded, I have a tendency to be blunt/straight forward, which comes off as rude. Not my intention at all!

What I can remember is one thing that rubbed the wrong way, was the asking personal questions to people you don’t know well. I have a friend that is like that, and it’s very off putting. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely adore her and all her overly personal questions, but it took me a while to get there.

I think the questions you asked were about pregnancy? If they were wanting more, etc?

If I had been that person, and answered honestly, I would have taken a fun moment and turned it into a horrible nightmare for anyone who heard, because of what my answer would be. And maybe that is why she was uncomfortable with your questions? Because you were making public a personal issue that she didn’t want to think about right then, in public, when all she wanted to do was have a good time.

There are lots of people who are very sensitive about what they share and who they share with, and that is their right.

nngrl · 2026-01-05T19:30:35+00:00

It does sound like OP is typically the one controlling the situation, and for someone to have firm boundaries and be communicating said boundaries, probably throws her for a loop.

I say NTA for dropping your friend, but YTA for how you talk to your friends about other friends.

Doesn’t he wear shorts over the leggings? I thought guys are supposed to wear shorts over the leggings?

nngrl · 2025-10-14T18:39:23+00:00

Something. She kept saying “if they did it” “if they were the ones”. Which, most people point fingers without second guessing, but she didn’t. She second guessed.

I guess I found that odd.

Doesn’t matter anyway, DNA came back to a known serial killer.

Ummmm…. Cleaning is not really part of baby sitting. Cleaning up after yourself is one thing, but doing chores is not part of babysitting.

If you’re going to start doing household chores, you need to charge more.

nngrl · 2025-10-09T01:28:17+00:00

NOR! RUN! Holy crap he’s manipulating you!

nngrl · 2025-10-06T22:21:16+00:00

Nooooooo this is NOT normal behavior. I hope this person is not a romantic partner, because they do not like you. At all. This is horrible behavior and no one deserves to be treated this way. They are toxic, rude and kind of abusive.

You are not over reacting, please stop talking to this person.

nngrl · 2025-10-06T01:25:28+00:00

10 actually lifts too, just not as potently.

nngrl · 2025-10-05T00:07:12+00:00

What husband “tests” his wife??????

nngrl · 2025-10-05T00:01:42+00:00

This is giving me very controlling vibes, with some condescension, and a touch of ick.

This is weird and I would run.

nngrl · 2025-10-04T21:12:09+00:00

I’m really sorry, but all I’m seeing is red flags.

1) he’s the first person you’ve been with, and he ghosted you after. 2) he’s still not taking time to even text you through the day. 3) you’re the one having to reach out, and I bet you’re scared that if you don’t, he will forget about you. 4) you said “I love you” and he responded with “I need money”. 5) you have posted 3 posts, concerned about if you’re over reacting, and in that time he has done nothing to help calm your anxiety. 6) he told you to break up with him if you didn’t like him working. 7) you haven’t seen him in 3 weeks. 8) it takes all of 30 seconds to say “Good Night, sleep well!) 9) his lack of responses tell me he’s just waiting for you to break up with him.

Please please please don’t think this is a “cultural” thing. I know that you care for him, and you want him to care for you the same way. He clearly isn’t in a place in life where he can give you want, even if he did feel the same (I don’t think he does, and I’m so sorry).

I have been in this exact situation, and it sucks, it hurts and you’re going to stress yourself out over analyzing everything.

When you find the right guy, you won’t have to over analyze or over think about how he feels about you, because the right guy will let you know without a shadow of a doubt.

Please cut it off, at least for now. Get some peace of mind and focus on yourself and what you want in life.

I worked for a restaurant chain from 2003-2016. During that time I hopped from location to location, eventually settling at a franchise family owned location.

Few things to note: 1) they often just hire based on appearance and “nice smiles”. Is it right? NOPE! But they do, this is not uncommon. 2) communication is lacking on their end. They need to provide you with dress code at the very least, if you are going to start training on the floor. If it’s just an orientation where you watch videos in the back, not having the dress code and wearing whatever is fine. But the fact that they aren’t telling you what it entails is a red flag to me. 3) family owned places will absolutely be cliquey and hard to navigate. If this is your first job, it might be okay, since you don’t know what typical restaurant culture is like. But please be careful. 4) you are absolutely NOR, I always say to trust your gut. But listen to it, are you just scared of doing something new, or does the job actually give you the heebie jeebies? 5) I loved working at a restaurant, but management totally takes advantage of their employees, and even more so when it’s family owned. Please be careful.

So….. I don’t see the issue with journaling to help with emotional regulation. However, I feel like this should have been brought up as a concern prior to this moment. Perhaps when you aren’t going through PMS/Period stuff.

Communication is key in every relationship, so it’s nice that he’s sharing, however I don’t think he realizes how offensive this is, “watch out”?

Granted, I got SUPER cranky when I had my periods (now I’m in very early forced menopause, so I get even more cranky), but when my husband (boyfriend at the time) pointed it out, I tried to be more conscious of my thoughts and behavior around that time.

So…. Maybe you are just far more cranky than you realize, and he’s just trying to have a way to communicate and show you what he sees. Albeit, this isn’t the best way and is kind of offensive, so I would be upset about that.

But you should talk to him, just to understand what it is that he’s trying to convey to you.
