My team has a virtual happy hour every week, and almost every time I have to hear about vuvuzela no food 69 billion dead. The one time it wasn’t that was one of my coworkers defending JK Rowling for being a transphobe.
Just today corporate surveillance came up and one of my coworkers (who used to work for the defense industry, go figure) brings up muh see see pee pee poo poo. I told everyone I had other obligations and noped out before I had to hear that shit for the millionth time.
How’s everyone else’s week?
Is this an on shift or off shift thing? I don’t go to off shift company events or whatever because why would I spend my free time doing anything work related? You want me to interact with these people from work? Pay me.
On shift. I wouldn’t go if it was afterwards.
