HA. I’m a mechanic (ex aircraft A&P, currently working in specialty heavy duty automotive/truck parts) and my boyfriend can’t pop the hood of his car. Whenever he takes it into the mechanic he ALWAYS calls me and gets so much shit from the guys at the shop. He gives no fucks and fully and PROUDLY admits I know more…

My boyfriend asked me a few days ago why I loved Tina Belcher on Bob's Burgers so much. Simply, she is the awkward, butt loving, teenage girl who says and does stuff that doesn't really make sense but just fuckin goes for it anyway. And she freaks out about random stuff and both cares and doesn't care. It was…

I have a body VERY similar to Christina Hendricks'....though I'm a bit over 6' tall. No matter what I wear I've been told I'm being provocative. Tshirt and jeans? Too attention grabbing. High vneck (no cleavage) with pencil skirt? Trying too hard. Button up shirt with slacks? Too provocative because the buttons…

My ex boss NEVER believed doctors notes. Ever. Every time she received a doctors note she would call the doctors office/hospital and either pretend to be the person the note was for, or a family member to get them to prove the employee actually went in. I had minor surgery on my shoulder, told her about it and…

THIS. I knew a company I worked for was doing some super shady stuff, but they were always warned of inspections really far in advance so they could fix everything and prepare. Then, a few days afterwards it would all go back to the horrible, unsafe environment I was used to. I spoke up and ended up laid off (along…

I see at least one during my everyday commute. I think I’ve recanted the karate chop and I’m just going to walk through it next time. No moving out of the way when they’re hogging the sidewalk. Yesterday evening a group of assholes with a selfie stick blocked my bus from getting to the stop because they just haaaaad…

Yeah, and I think it’s important to acknowledge all the types of reactions. My Dad attempted suicide when he found out my mom was pregnant. Tried to run out into traffic. 33 years later they’re still together and happily married and love that they have me and my two siblings. Honestly, when my Mom mentioned it to me I…

I don't know if it's necessarily about selfies themselves...but I walk through a very popular square (not in NYC, but in another major city) to take the subway to and from work everyday and I'm getting FUCKING PISSED at assholes with selfie sticks. They stand in the road, block sidewalks, block entrances to places I…

It was super messed up... they purposely kept in contact with temp agencies that placed recent immigrants and 'preferred' people who had refugee status. At first, I thought it was really noble because they wanted to provide recent immigrants from war torn countries...but it turns out they chose them because they…

It's all good. I ended up being 'laid off' because I refused to be on call without pay after hours. Apparently, I wasn't a 'team player' because I didn't want to get up at 3am to meet a courier who had a delivery for free.

I'd bet that he thinks people will be sympathetic to him. No joke, I've seen it quite a few times before. He will expect the public at large to feel bad that he has to pay this lowly employee such a high wage when she obviously doesn't deserve it.

Well, I'm sure he was positive she was going to say how generous and amazing he was in giving her this government mandated wage. My old employer expected pats on the backs and crying while kissing his rings when he ONLY upped our insurance contribution by 12% one year. The company had a record year and he bragged…

Yes, but we can't please everyone. If we talk about labor relationship people freak out and complain that the equal wage gap is bogus. Manspreading has to do with the fact that men seem to think they are entitled to all the space and shouldn't share it. This translates over to many other areas so yes, it is…

Why is it that so many think that people can't have more than one thing to be interested in, argue about or have an opinion on? I read the article, I saw the picture, I think it's bullshit it was taken down and I'm making a comment. Took a total of 10 minutes out of my day. Just because the woman in the article…

My brother's girlfriend is tall and suuuuper thin, so jumpsuits look absolutely wonderful on her. Actually, pretty much anything looks great on her.

I went from a 32AA (as in, had never actually owned a bra) to a 36F in less than 6 months. I had a super late puberty and went from kid to adult in a very short time frame. It can happen, but I really don't think it's common or what Kim went through.

Because bootstraps and PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY.

Yep. A friend of mine graduated with her Masters in Nursing about 6 months after her boyfriend graduated with his Bachelors in Nursing. She had a few more years of direct hospital experience to add to that, he had part time retail jobs. They applied for the exact same position at the exact same hospital and his…

I come to work wearing ridiculous shit when it's cold. I have to walk half a mile to the train station from my apartment, then anouther 3/4 of a mile or so from the train station to my workplace. When it's 10 degrees out and snowing I'm gonna be wearing whatever the fuck I want and everyone else can suck it.

YOU'RE NOT MY REAL MOM
