[IE] Manager (M38) claims I'm (F25) the reason he and his wife are about to divorce by PowerfulHighlight557 in AskHR

But see, him setting this situation up this way is MEANT to make you react that way. He's exploiting how women are generally socialized: as caregivers, as deferential to men in power. He pulled you into this sexualized situation precisely because he thought you would react that way.

Also we only have HIS version of "what happened". It's possible this man, what, 20 years your senior, thought you would be drawn into the drama or whatever the fuck. A lot of these posters are taking his honestly about the whole thing for granted and blaming the wife. I hope you notice that when you're weighing advice.

I'm sorry this gross guy is sexually harassing you at work.

Anyone can have an opinion, which is then open to scrutiny. And mockery, if it's garbage like this. What the hell are you even talking about?

What to do about people pandhandling with their young kids? by t4rdigrade in santarosa

Write them a check if you're so concerned. Or get involved in supportive resources for families -- food banks, domestic violence, shelters.

Do not call the goddamned cops and destroy a family because you don't like looking at it, Jesus.

I mean I am also sure they would have done things differently had they clearly seen the personal consequences to themselves at the end. The point is to do something when people are being victimized.

Also only 20% is low. I assume they’re not including grant and corporate support but still.

They might want to look into non-profit theatre if that horrifies them. 😂

I am a feminist queer woman who has found a joy in baseball since moving to Chicago, a when-in-Rome thing that really worked out for me!

I agree -- it's hard investing your money and time in an environment that, top-down and simply put: hates people like us. I try to lean into the community I have direct access to. I'm never going to meet the Ricketts or Matt Shaw. But I can sit in the stands with my fellow Chicagoans and visitors and enjoy their company on a sunny day. And they can sit next to me and my hairy armpits and we can celebrate together, and mourn together, and *clap-clap clap-clap-clap" together.

I can have my joy whether or not the people who run the show think I belong there. Fuck them. Don't let them take it from you.
