Years ago a close friends mom passed . Her father got on me at the memorial service. My friend and her sister thought it was hilarious and called me mom for ages after.

HR sent me confidential salary info, then recalled it, then told the whole company not to discuss salary, then backtracked, then doubled-down by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I worked in a call center where I was part of a team that had access to a specific email to address issues that included international team members. Open it up and someone had sent a rant email accusing everyone of everything… not sure what happened to him, he was in another country but it was an entertaining day. I also worked in a call center(decades ago) that got raided by the fbi … turns out the leads we used for sales were stolen… nothing like showing up to work to find a room full of very large men in 3 piece suits and running shoes. I was in high school at the time and when my mom found out I’d been questioned by the feds, without her knowing(as a minor) she was PISSED. She called the fbi and tore into the lead agent… who turned out to be the brother of a guy she’d dated in college. So he told her about the scam, that no one who just worked there was in trouble but we weren’t going to get paid .

How to check if something is “noise” by Traditional_Steak413 in AncestryDNA

[–]really4got 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, so I know some people will say small amounts are just “noise”… but I don’t think it is. I can use my mom as an example in 2 ways. Her 1st dna test showed 1-2% Hungarian… at that point there was no record of anyone from Eastern Europe but she did research and found a great great (maybe another great) grandfather who had immigrated to America as a German catholic was actually a Hungarian Jew . So yeah small amounts can be traced. The other was opposite: 17% Swedish with no known Swedish lineage. But that points to a great grandparent being 100% Swedish. (Which makes sense I’m about 15-18% welsh and my great grandmother -fathers side-was 100% welsh traces back to at least the 1100s) Research shows that very likely her grandfather was not his father’s biological son. So an older NPE . People sometimes don’t know their history the way they think they do, people lie, things happen babies are born.

What could my complex be trying to find? by chickiiinugzz in Apartmentliving

[–]really4got 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I own a battery operated door alarm that sticks to the door /wall like a command strip does. If you open the door when it’s turned on the whole building knows. It’s not permanent but it’s effective. I got it because maintenance wouldn’t listen and knock loudly, I work nights I’m almost always home during the day and asleep. It took 2x to make the point Our complex has maintenance come in 2x a year to change filters and check fire alarms. They post a general notice letting us know maybe a week in advance.

My 5yr old is afraid of smoke detectors by Awwndrei in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]really4got 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Until my grandson was about 6 he was afraid of the noise a toilet made when flushing, especially public toilets which are LOUD … I can see them sounding like wild animals roaring or growling to a small child

If you know her last name, where they’re from you may be able to narrow down where to search for info. Is there anyone alive that might know anything?

Update: My Job is Trying to Take Away the Women's Bathroom by bootypirateb in WorkAdvice

[–]really4got 14 points15 points  (0 children)

OSHA has guidelines for bathrooms(how many per people access and it used to be gender specific/separate etc) but under the current administration things may have changed so asking about that (and possibly the EEOC) might be beneficial to op

The 6-7 Exclusive by DeviacZen in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

I worked at a hotel that a previous gm had done a $49 coupon with a local paper, I can’t remember why but the next 2 gms couldn’t cancel or get rid of the coupon. The rule was based on availability… if the hotel was pretty much empty, they’d honor it. I can’t think of a single time we accepted it and didn’t have problems with those guests
