If they can hang Trump signs in their offices and proudly show off their MAGA hats, then why can’t I wear my pussyhat? I think you’re on to something here!

Yes when you ask them to say what time they are referring to they never quite have an answer, do they? Of course we all know what they’re talking about, they are just too cowardly to say ‘a time when women and POC had no rights’ to our faces.

Cheers to that.

Yes, exactly. And I have no idea how we’re supposed to have conversations wtih people like this. You respond with facts and logic, they just repeat lies. I feel like I get tripped up trying to talk to them sometimes because they say something so outlandish that I’m caught off-guard. And that makes them think they’ve

Thanks. Short of quitting my job, I’m honestly not sure what to do anymore. They do not respond to logic or reason, so my attempts to present facts are pretty much useless at this point. The longer Trump is in office the more they seem to be emboldened by him, and as a result every day someone brings him up and rants

I am in the same boat. I actually had to walk out of work on Friday (it was lunchtime, so it’s not like I just up and left) because of the way some of my coworkers were acting. One actually stood up and raised his voice, yelling about how Trump was elected and the liberal protesters need to get over it, etc. Another

I totally get the phone anxiety. I finally drew enough strength to call both of my senators and my representative - one of my senators is a Democrat, the other senator and the representative are both Republicans. I thought I would still call the Democrat just to further voice my opinion, even if her and I are on the

Probably no one will see this because I am in the greys but MY COWORKER JUST SAID SHE LIKES KELLYANNE CONWAY AND THINKS SHE IS VERY SMART.

Man does he look rough. I guess being a Nazi really takes it out of you.

Yeah, yesterday one of my coworkers called all of the Trump supporters in the office fascists and hoo boy were their little feelings hurt. But let’s call it out. This is what they are. Can’t pretend anymore.

Why why why do teachers still have students grade their classmates’ work? This was always humiliating to me and I still think about it from time to time, even though I’m 26 and have been out of school for several years.

Right? This just screams of the ‘fuck you, I got mine’ attitude of Republicans.

Ugh to both fair-weather fans AND Michael Vick.

See, and I’m rooting for Atlanta because I live in Green Bay and Packers fans are FUCKING HORRIBLE. I may have to leave the area if the Packers make it to the Super Bowl. They are bad enough now as it is with being this close.

That’s true, and I would much rather treat it that way than do some big announcement. I think I was sort of just taken aback by the coworker who is chomping at the bit to share news that isn’t hers. But you’re right, when people do find out, as they inevitably will, I don’t have to make it into a big thing.

Thank you!

Thank you! I wish my office had something like that in place. Sometimes the gossip is just way too much.

Thanks for your response. I suppose I have a difficult time explaining my relationship with the majority of my coworkers, which has been largely negative in the 3 years I’ve worked with them. To be honest, they’ve been a large reason for my anxiety and depression over the last year or so. I’d like to give them the

I typed out a big long thing but then I thought it’s pretty tl;dr so I will condense it. I got engaged about two months ago and am getting married next fall. I am not particularly close with any of my coworkers - I am the youngest in the office (26) and I am just at a different point in my life than they are. Most of

In the 3 years I’ve worked at my company, I have not gone to the office ‘party’ once. It’s not so much a party as it is cocktails at the same shitty sports bar every year, which they put together 2 days before the date. In my last performance review my boss brought up how I have never attended one of these parties. I
