I use ‘Kirking shit up’ all the time IRL.

When she simply walked into that room when Steve told her to stay behind..my boyfriend whispered ‘oh god she’s you’ to me. Then, when she said ‘I’M THAT MAN’ he said the same thing to me, because I have literally said that in meetings with my all male coworkers. When I started working in the automotive industry, I…

HOLY CRAP SAME. I realllly didn’t want to ugly cry at the movie but I started tearing up when they panned out on the amazons sparring with each other. Seeing all those fierce women just doing their thing and looking badass doing it made me so happy. Then I realized how truly rare it is to see a movie spearheaded by…

Depends on the job. At my last two jobs , if you didn’t answer emails/your phone on vacation you wouldn’t get promoted and you definitely wouldn’t get a raise. On performance evaluations you wouldn’t be a ‘team player’ . At my current job my boss put a stop to that habit real quick... then we were bought out and…

At my company you don’t even start accruing until the January after your first anniversary. So, if you were hired in March of this year, you wouldn’t start accruing until January of 2019. We get one week a year, so the person starting in march wouldn’t be able to take their first vacation until after January 2020. …

This is super anecdotal and only one example, but I had a friend who was suuuuper homophobic and it turns out she was afraid her husband would leave her because he thought ‘lesbians were hot’.

My boyfriend (and both his siblings) all have their mother’s maiden name as their middle names. My boyfriend genuinely had no idea this wasn’t normal when we had a conversation in regards to me not changing my name when we get married. His argument was that our kid(s) can’t have my current (and forever) last name as…

Add a Mickey Mouse patch to that jacket and he looks JUST like my late aunt.

The hospital I was born in is now a bank.

Ha, my bf and I don’t even sit next to each other when we go out with friends... I’m there to see other people, not the mug I wake up to every day. People seem to find this weird, but it works for us and our friends are used to it. It’s funny when people start rearranging themselves so we can sit next to one another…

I live in the stuck up northeast and I honestly cannot wait until me and the mister to have a kid so that I can just destroy preppy parents. I’ll gladly walk all 6'2 of me into a pta meeting wearing my 15 year old doc martens, Star Trek shirt and full sleeve on show.

Yep. I moved from a beautiful place on the California coast where I could hear the waves from my front door to the cold hellhole that is Boston because my career was stalled and there were really no opportunities beyond the hospitality industry. I hate it here so much but it had to be done. Sometimes shit sucks and…

My friends ex is exactly like that. Moans about how hard being a single parent is, when he only has the kids every other weekend. Most of the time his new girlfriend is taking care of his kids too. Oh, and she pays child support since she makes way more than him which makes perfect sense.

Not only do we rarely get hired,when we finally do the guys make lifea living hell to ‘prove’ that we should be there. When I was training to become an aircraft mechanic I couldn’t make ANY mistakes while the guys could make plenty. If I had a problem or made an error,I was because ‘women don’t have the natural…

Honestly...it may just be a Massachusetts thing. I’ve lived in a few states (born on the west coast and eventually made my way to Boston) and I have NEVER in my life met a group of people as ill mannered, rude and uncaring as the people in Mass. They joke and call themselves ‘Massholes’ but the reality is that they…

A friend of mine is a welder and she tried for YEARS to get a job and nobody would hire her. She went back to school and got several certificates for different types of welding because she figured she just wasn’t experienced enough. Come to find out that nobody would hire her because they were afraid of harassment…

Wow...that was so incredibly on point I don’t even know how to properly respond.

roasted with maple syrup and bacon. Holy crap it’s an experience.

You’re being a bit general with California... my brother and his wife (she’s a second year elementary school teacher and he’s a server and in their mid twenties) just bought their first house outside of Sacramento for less than 200k this past summer.

I recently set up dual monitors in my office at work. The manager came by and asked if I could get internet on both of them. The manager that is currently in charge of IT since the company is too cheap to hire a person who knows more than how to push the button and the screen comes on.
