So I'm a youngish (mid 20's) guy working for a company thats almost entirely old people (50+). My boss who's an executive at my company always dotes on me, gives me life advice, and constantly says things like "if you were my son....". My IRL dad passed away a few years ago, and all of this is starting to weird me out and I dont know how to handle it.

GBS has a lot of experience with weird dad issues so toss me some advice goons!

idk, i'd just say take the advice and poo poo, I highly doubt he's going to start inviting you to his cabin for weeks at a time or things like that, he's probably just looking out for you because he likes you and wants you to be as successful as he is

Ask him to adopt you, then kill him. You will now gain his position. You're Welcome.

this place is good and not bad
i dunno man, he probably means well and poo poo and just wants to give you some advice you might find useful. my guess is he doesn't say things like that because he needs to fill your dad void, sorry for your loss btw. most likely hes just some old rear end dude who's been a dad for so long he doesnt know how to go through life without thinking like "if i was this goons dad...".

gbs appropriate response: kiss him on the lips lol

OP. Successful people who take a special interest in you are valuable people. They will help you throughout your career if you're lucky. Unless his advice is poison take every opportunity to learn.

gently caress. He's a mentor. Not your dad.

Ride that goddamn pony. Oh no you poor thing they may start throwing their daughters and nieces at you soon. Marry one, get groomed for management and take over when "dad" retires.

OP obv feels guilty about his privilege. It's okay OP I will burden your privilege for you, just put in a good word for me and I'll end up your boss in no time, don't worry though I won't treat you like my son. Actually, I think I'll fire you.
