You see mysterious strangers in the night. Leaning against unlit doorways, engaged in hushed quacking. A shadowy cabal exchanging looks, whispering in dark copier rooms and unmarked locales. A radical cell conspiring against the company -- and perhaps even against man and woman. Was that a secret handshake? What’s going on? Who are these secretive people? How will they accomplish their sinister and world-altering goals? And most importantly -- are you *one* of them? You could be. Maybe you forgot...

zombienietzsche posted:I bet she actually believes this. Tbf she says her husband flat out said he didn't find her attractive "because she was fat" which certainly makes him seem bad. But like, if she suddenly gained a bunch of weight and refused to do anything about it that's fair to say that's a problem. Or maybe he just shut her out. Still didn't justify her affair. I like how she heavily implies that her husband had an affair, "replacing" her with a 23 year old surf instructor. But lol she cheated, it's entirely possible he met the instructor post-separation or even after the divorce was finalized. Also mega lol that the new chick is teaching everyone to surf.  how dare my husband meet a new partner who is teaching him, his kids, and his parents something active and exciting

I'm being accused of "stealing company property" because I brought my own Kuerig cups in instead of buying from the company snack bar. How should I tell my boss to go gently caress herself?quote:The little Kuerig coffee cups at work are $0.50 each. Very reasonable, but I don't like the flavors they keep stocked, so I bought my own cups in from home and have been using those instead. Better flavor and all that.

I also like the confusing wording, it initially seemed her parents had invited her ex to an activity on her weekend. But no, OP is pissed her ex took her kids and her parents to seaworld and his new partner gave them surfing lessons. That's the thing that prompted the nasty email, a family vacation at the ocean. I'm getting divorced. I hope and pray my ex finds a new partner who treats her well and likes my kids and teaches them fun active things. Please by all means take my parents out and give them surfing lessons, they'd love that. What's this lady's problem??

I think I'd be weirded out by my family secretly having a relationship with my ex. I think OP knows a lot of people would feel that way, so that's why she worded things the way she did. I think the mom's email is right on. "Yes it's weird to have a secret relationship with your ex but lol you're such an rear end in a top hat it actually becomes the right thing to do in this situation."

How should I tell my boss to go gently caress herself? This is insane. I don't even work at a large company and when our HR person called the coffee supply people to ask how much they were charging they freaked out and thought we were shopping around, so they gave us a free keurig and started sending us cups for no additional charge. Charging your employees for coffee is absolute horse poo poo, you want them to drink coffee and be more productive. Also that post has got to have like a minimum of $100 worth of rewards on it.

One other important detail about the ex-husband and the surfing instructor story is that there's a good chance the ex-husband really is just platonic friends with a young woman who's giving the whole family surfing lessons. That's what he and the kids told the OP and uh...OP doesn't seem like a reliable narrator.

Soylent Pudding posted:AITA for exposing my parents' favoritism Update AITA for exposing my parents' favoritism quote:I decided to go ahead and call my grandparents to accept their offer to move in. During the phone call I asked them why there was monthly payments being sent to my parents. Turns out my parents were living beyond their means for a while because my mother quit her job to be a full time stay at home mom. My grandparents decided to help out by sending them money monthly to help with my parents mortgage and also to set aside some of that money for college savings for both my brother and I that was to be split evenly. Turns out my parents only planned to put that savings towards my brother's college. And that's also how they bought his car as well. So from now on my parents are now on their own financially. Likely my mother will have to go back to work to help my dad keep up the mortgage.

So they were definitely getting OP at a huge discount and hey congrats on saving a few bucks on coffee while costing the company thousands extra on salary.
