Even if we didn't have the creepy backstory, in a vacuum, reporting "hostile work environment" because of a minor disagreement about tea is completely unhinged.

[@aliyahherbert4411]

Real and frightening

[@russellstanley8884]

Lot of guys believe that whoever complains to HR first gets preferential treatment (due to getting their narrative out first or whatever), so he probably felt he was being proactive. Doesn't really work if you are actively harassing the person you report.

it's so funny how the doughnut guy was like "Yeah who cares breakfast isn't important I don't eat it " then proceeded to eat 4 entire doughnuts for breakfast lmao

[@mydogismybff]

RIght? "i dOn'T eAt bReaKfAst aNd i'M fiNe". You just ate *FOUR* donuts within 30 minutes of starting work, buddy. You're CLEARLY not "fiNE"!!💀💀

[@tsumichama]

That should have been his wake up call that maybe he should start eating breakfast (so he doesn't down his coworkers' doughnuts on top of his own)

[@LordKeram]

I mean if you have problem with weight skipping breakfast is the best thing you can do. But first of all how does him not eating breakfast have anything to do with the pregnant lady? And second of all, exactly. If you don't eat/need breakfast than you could have left the two fucking doughnuts alone. The fact that he ate 4 doughnuts in the span of 30 minutes is still baffling to me. Like at the start of the story I though he would say we had doughnuts so I ate two instead of one, which is understandable. BUT YOU EAT FUCKING 4 DOUGHNUTS INSTEAD OF 2? Not to mention the doughnuts were clearly specifically counted. Like man at least wait idk maybe an hour?

[@LyxiLynnn]

@@LordKeram exactly, even at HOME I feel bad for eating the last/ the most portions of something. Doing that at work with doughnuts you didn't even pay or ask anyone about? So selfish

[@margauxcy]

He may not recognize the fact that he DID eat breakfast because it wasn't eggs toast and bacon or cereal or something, but eating 4 donuts in the morning is technically your breakfast, no, not a good one mind you, but that IS breakfast, I'm definitely being harsh, but like, it feels like he's just denying it because I don't think most people would want to say they ate donuts for breakfast or he's quirky and has to feel cool for not doing what the majority does, because "I don't even eat breakfast, why does it matter". The definition of breakfast is the word itself, break fast, breaking a fast, the first meal after sleeping, technically being a fast from when you ate dinner the night before.

[@jadeemen9105]

my dad was literally dying during the birth of my sister, and he made them wheel him from the emergency room to see my mom and sister, before going unconscious and having to be wheeled back to the emergency room. to hear that this dougebag doesnt want to be there for such an important moment is an outrage.

[@David-cc8xe]

I was there for all my 3 kids births and i would not have missed that for anything but i did not take off from work BEFORE the baby was born. Why would you?

[@herb_rolls]

@@David-cc8xe i would say baby being born, like the week before would be best to take off (the body is ramping up) and then definitely after for as long as possible. the side effects of birth last for around 2 years including spinal, ribcage, and more. directly after birth you are peeing yourself, can't wipe yourself after pooping and leak.

[@David-cc8xe]

@herb_rolls yeah i was just talking with my wife, wich we had 3 kids together and she did not need me a week before. Her mother even asked her to come over before they were born and she did not want anybody there. She was doing fine. All 3 births lasted max 3 hours, did not even tear once. I took 6 weeks off after each off them to be there for her and to be with my babies. And i was getting up at night to let her sleep. She did not need me to be there a week before. And after 3 kids i think we know what we are talking about thank you very much

[@jamer2010]

​@@David-cc8xe To help out your partner and support them? The last month of pregnancy is crazy difficult and she could have been feeling scared and needed support from him. Also, it sounds like she was afraid of going into labor and him not leaving work to be there.....

[@jamer2010]

​@@David-cc8xe I don't really believe your post because it's very rare to have a birth that quickly, especially for the first one. I'm concerned you're talking about the ACTIVE labor part where she is pushing and 3 hours for that part is A LOT.

[@Leanimal]

The “workplace harassment” guy was literally listening to her conversations and then interrogating her about them. She could have easily gone to HR first!

[@DJKuroh]

And then overhead that she doesn't like talking to him and STILL won't leave her alone!

[@aesaiza]

Ikr that's so backwards

[@BertFromOhio]

​@DJKuroh to be fair though, assuming he wasn't trying to do anything other than be a good coworker and make her feel comfortable, I can understand why he would go to HR if she was telling people he was harassing her. That's a serious accusation and maybe HR could mediate, at least facilitate a conversation so they could find a resolution

[@AleksandarBell]

@@BertFromOhio But he didn’t tell them that she said that. He reported her for literally telling him that she didn’t like tea

[@gigimarie6465]

​@BertFromOhio there might not be much they could do. He knew she didnt like talking to him and yet still kept this up for a YEAR. It takes about 5 minutes to know someone isnt vibing with you. Its the fact he kept inserting himself that seems a bit obsessive. Also he didnt report her for that. He reported her for not responding nicer to his conversation attempts. Dude couldnt move on from 1 person not wanting to be his friend. Childish.

[@maramason1238]

I literally went into labor 4 days ago, and my boyfriend took off as long as I was in the hospital. We are actually strapped for money but he knew I would need him and he wanted to be there for me and his son. I can’t imagine what it is like to have more loyalty towards your job than your pregnant wife and future twins. Just listening to that story makes me want to cry bc labor is hard for EVERYONE and she’s having multiples

[@kahluakarnage]

As someone who regularly listens to reddit stories while I do chores and clean, this is only one that makes me want to stop and just listen. Plus you get actual facial reactions instead of just a generic read along.

[@arifike]

You get to judge idiots and assholes with surrogate “friends” whose background and personality you’re familiar with while they give smart and funny commentary. Classic brain off easy gratification while getting to feel superior. One of the best ideas they’ve had in awhile and so cheap and easy to do.

[@teologen]

No, I don’t remember my father being bedside during my own birth but I’m sure my mother remembers. You’re there for HER.

[@deathbed2006]

The other point to being by their side is that even though it's not very likely nowadays but if there are complications and either she or the baby passes away during birth like what the hell no amount of how fast you wanna get there is going to matter if it already happened. My older sister and her now ex husband had a stillborn several years back and I can't even imagine how painful that would have been for her to have to go through that by herself without her husband there.

[@chancewill6910]

I don't remember my birth father being there but I know I was upside down and backwards with the umbilical cord around my throat so they had to do a c-section. I don't know if he was there but I really hope my mom had some kind of support from loved ones

[@rubifeefay]

what's so especially crazy about the pto dad one is that his wife could literally DIE while giving birth and he would just be like "well you see I had to make money" like he could legitimately never see his wife again and he just doesn't give a fuck

[@gooodmorning4526]

Also I imagine the last few weeks/days of pregnancy are hard and having him there to help her and take her to the hospital would be so wonderful for her, but no, ig she will have to do everything herself or rely on her mother and his.

[@swimfast724]

That's three entire thing! He doesn't give a duck about his wife and what she has to go through and what she needs, before and after! Just to make some extra money? That's the dumbest most self centered man I've ever encountered. Makes me so sad. She's in an abusive relationship and needs to leave now!

[@swimfast724]

​@@gooodmorning4526yes they are very very hard, especially since q lot of women can develop pre eclampsia a couple weeks before birth and it's super treatable but if you don't notice it and treat it, it's fatal to both the mom and baby! This man makes me so angry. Probably because he reminds me of my dad.....lol

[@annaarmstrong4614]

Right?? That guy's argument about wanting to save up money for after the baby is born is immediately nullified by the fact that his boss was going to give him PTO for as long as he needed. So he was going to make the same amount of money whether he was at work or not (unless he took on a bunch of overtime, which it sounds like he wanted to do since he asked for more work). Bottom line, I would've been so angry with my husband if he wanted to make himself so unavailable when we were having our daughter. He was there for the entire process (I had a scheduled induction so none of the time I was in labor was a surprise). The whole thing was largely uneventful until it was time to start pushing, but just knowing my husband was with me no matter what showed me what kind of man he really is.

[@anonymouswriter5]

Pertaining the "I hide my personal life at work" story: I've actually been in deep hiding for a long period of my life. My relatives actively sought out my family to hurt us to a point that when my mum was spotted in the parking lot of her work she got a new car 3 days later(it was a process). I don't use my real name or even my nickname online, I don't list nearby areas to me, I don't have pictures online, my family's names are secrets, my job history is only presented in vague stories offline or on resumes, etc. I'm VERY private and secretive for a very specific reason. While the lady of the story isn't a case like mine I can 100% see why outing someone's private details like that is extremely damaging and can be potentially life threatening. If my relatives had ever found me and my family they would have continued to torture us and kill our animals again and this story really brought trauma back up. Everyone is all "It's weird to be private" without understanding that everyone who's private to that degree has a reason. Hers just happens to be a split life for her mental health. It is odd and absolutely should NEVER be pushed.

[@hownottoadult1014]

Exactly people that private normally have a reason, it’s a full time job of itself to become that private and keep it that way, you are constantly looking over your shoulder and fearful that any information can get out and your life become over.

[@EStramel09]

The worst thing about the coworker harassment story isn’t that he was talking to her and giving compliments. It’s that he said he overheard talking to someone else saying she doesn’t like talking to him and he is stalker-like and then KEPT talking to/stalking her. I’m all for getting to know coworkers. I’ve been good friend with almost all my past coworkers. But if I heard that, I’d immediately go and apologize to her and then leave her alone.

[@paige8453]

She couldve been more adult about it and told him directly though. They are adults who can hande their own problems. From what we know she never told him she didn't like him at all, so how is he supposed to know? All he saw was a new coworker he wanted to be work friends with. She can't really get mad at him for talking to her to much when she never said anything. I'm not taking his side because what he did was also stupid. I'm just saying that she couldve solved this by simply telling him she didn't want to talk instead of getting hr involved for nothing.

[@EStramel09]

@@paige8453 I mean he is supposed to know because he literally overheard her tell someone else she doesn’t like him and see him as stalker-like.

Once he heard her say she didn’t like being around him, even if she said it to another person, he should have apologized or just straight up never talked to her again.

Yeah I worked in a place like this before, a school though, where the school was in the middle of nowhere and everyone was mostly miserable about their own personal lives and would like feed on other people's drama.

Story One: I had a boyfriend who wouldn’t stop talking about a waitress at the restaurant where he worked. Invited me out with their “group” to the club one night and introduced us. She kept complimenting my looks. I didn’t buy it but I played along. The fawning over her to me didn’t stop after that. I was “the love of his life.” He married her a few years after that. I would never go get a job to work with them like this OP did, but I totally relate to her picking up on that vibe. Especially because my ex had been unfaithful before, too. More than once.

He clearly isn't a tea expert like he claims. this is pretty basic stuff. Not only are they different teas, but they even require different water temperatures, and usually steeping time as well. This guy clearly doesn't know as much as he thinks he does, which puts into question his entire side of the story since he reported her to HR for "lying" about tea, when she clearly wasn't. It really is the Dunning-Kruger-effect in action. Imagine being so confident about a topic that you report someone to HR for correcting a wrong idea you have.

The woman who didn't say she had kids was relatable, because mother's get discriminated against at work. If you say you have a dentist appointment it will go over a lot better than saying you want to go do something for your kids. It wouldn't matter if you were a father, but if you're a mother they start to wonder if you'll be able to balance your work with your kids. Women avoid mentioning kids during job interviews for this reason. It harms your work prospects. Edit: If you're married people also ask you if you're going to have kids soon. Employers worry about needing to give you maternity leave soon, but they won't usually say that outright. If your single, they wouldn't automatically assume you'll get pregnant.

Its actually weird how if you MEET at a job, new friendship and life long relationships (platonic or romantic) can form. But if you are ALREADY dating or married, and then work together, its a fucking nightmare and ruins everything lol

[@toaster400_]

I feel like it’s cause when you meet at a job you’ve already learned how to work well together. Likely you were great coworkers to each other first, and then the relationship formed. Vs being together and the starting a job you have no idea of how to work together in a job environment. Plus especially when one of you already was working there?? You would join and immediately gravitate towards them and can end up isolating yourself from other coworkers and smothering each other.

A bar I walked in had "the crying Fridge", a walk in fridge where staff went to cry, it helped that the cold kept the swelling down from crying.... 😐

I want a video where Shayne just tries to eat a box of donuts before the office gets to the kitchen

The “cysts” guy story feels a little like petty revenge and it’s hilarious

[@olingecko]

I have been through this procedure and the recovery, and use petty revenge as much as you want. You have to share the butt hurt.

[@kur0t0synth]

@@olingecko yo same! I remember the first time I had to get a cyst drained it was huge and hurt like a bitch, I had it for years but it always came and went without much trouble 'til then. the other two times still stunk though: one on my stomach was so sore after and the second one messed up my pants because it hadn't stopped bleeding ( it was only the inside and it came out easy).

[@ashleyjohnson9651]

​@@kur0t0synthi had one the size of a quarter on the very top back of my thigh, right under my butt, and i remember so clearly the betrayal of my mom making me lay on my stomach to see it and SWEARING she wasnt going to touch it because it hurt so much, and then suddenly squeezing the absolute daylight out of it to drain it. my memory is extremely bad, but that moment, the excruciating pain, and my crying afterwards is seared into my brain AFAIR, it healed up fine and didnt come back afterwards so i guess she technically did the right thing lmao

[@kur0t0synth]

@@ashleyjohnson9651 DAMN, my mom had tried like that but I'm too aware of the cyst and pain to just let it happen 😭😭

[@ashleyjohnson9651]

@@kur0t0synth i think that was part of why she had me lay the way i did lol. i probably wasnt more than 10 or 11 years old and there wasnt an easy way for me to quickly squirm away like that if i started having second thoughts 😂

The “I️ Hide My Personal Life at Work” person could have trauma, could be a DV victim, could have had a stalker in the past, etc. People are allowed to keep whatever they want private in the workplace!!! I️ get wanting to know more about someone but that does not EVER overshadow boundaries of that person, regardless of their reasoning.

Spencer: “Doughnuts here will last well into the day.” Tommy, with a 50 yard stare of a Nam veteran: “Absolutely…”

[@weeaboonee]

The pregnant wife one. My dad fell asleep for a bit while my mom was in labor with my younger brother, there's still debate on whether or not he woke up on time to see the birth. It's been 27 years and my mom STILL guilts him about it. It's not at all about the kid, it's about supporting your spouse in a significant moment of pain, happiness and vulnerability- that you as the other parent participated in. Your kid won't remember, but your wife always will

[@Magpiee2010]

34:27 it’s Pam from The Office! She fakes going into labor to get out of work so much that they escalate to pretending like her water broke. Great reference, love y’all’s Reddit videos!

[@clairesmallwood2953]

I swear, every woman or female presenting person whos ever worked in an office setting or anywhere really, has had the experience with an older co-worker being too friendly/creepy/stalkerish... i can not believe that man tried to report her to hr for not being friendly

[@Shebeast3]

utterly disgusting

[@DomoftheDoctor]

Just want to say that Shayne’s Ron Swanson impression was on point. It wasn’t just the voice - his face morphed into Nick Offerman. Another impression for a future Funeral Roast!

[@ashe1145]

The show Spencer referenced where a pregnant woman is using going into labor to avoid work is The Office. Pam consistently pretends to be in labor so she can avoid meetings and conversations, it's hilarious.

[@The_KittenCatMEOW99]

The last one SHAYNE’S REACTION WAS AMAZING JUST HIM NOT BEING ABLE TO READ IT WITHOUT BREAKING DOWN IN LAUGHTER😂😂😂😂❤❤

[@De_Nasty]

For the post about the woman who doesn’t wanna share anything at work, I don’t think she should have felt bad or made amends for anything. No one is entitled to that information. I work in a library and have fantastic work relationships with people I know the absolute bare minimum (or nothing at all) about.

[@RaggedyRaeee]

Lol! As a person who worked with family at “we are like one big family” restaurant is was HELLLL. But that walk in freezer comment is so real.

[@jossmonster]

I gotta say I really love Spencer and Kiana’s friendship, it’s so wholesome

[@cliobii]

I’m so glad that crying in the walk-in freezer at your Italian restaurant job is a universal experience 😭✨

[@veronicawilson7594]

Add to that, crying while dumping mouldy marinara sauce down the grease trap in the dish pit

[@EvHabs]

Tommy's "It's a great place to cry!" hit with so much relatable pain behind his eyes...

[@name.333]

ppl are criticising the mom for not doing her job well bc she didn’t network by sharing details abt her personal life, but it’s no one’s business if she doesn’t want it to be lmao. this doesn’t involve anyone but her.

[@roygbiv9038]

I’ve worked in many places where you get to know your coworkers and vice-versa to a point where you personally consider them your friends but as soon as you’re let go, they act like you don’t exist anymore which led me to be more closed off over the years at work. I valued the “friendship” more than they did, once I was no use to them, I might as well be dead. Maybe she just doesn’t want to experience that type of hurt again.

[@smileyy777]

The one where the person didn't want to talk about her personal life - totally get it!! A lot of times you get f-ed over if you give up too much of your personal life! And I really do think that if she were a man who just was quiet about his personal life it wouldn't have been an issue.

[@Monicalia]

I don't like to share any of my personal life or thoughts at work when two specific co-workers are around, because anything you say is basically giving them an excuse to say something mean towards you. Say something and you're guaranteed a mean response, criticism, a hurtful mockery, because it's not coming from a friendly place (I mean, they probably think it is), but from believing they're the smartest and everyone else is dumb. No matter what you say or do, they'll make you think it was stupid. Setting direct boundaries is useless and the only boundary I can actually set is to just not limit my interractions with them and keep conversation as vague as possible.

Also, Melinda isn't just wierd, she's a creep, sitting in front of you computer and going to that length to find someone is so creepy, also we could better see that if it were a man who looked for a woman that way

[@phalxeon]

Just to adress the cyst stuff... Tommy said that after the surgery it's not gonna happen again because of scar tissue... Not entirely true. I had it happen twice, had surgery for it twice (both times been out of commision for over 3 months, 2 years apart), and after the second time had hair removel therapy to prevent it from happening again in that area (which was already recommended the first time I had surgery). So, check your posture and also, it can 'just' happen even if you're carefull!

[@iAmBackupKatie]

HOW did we go this entire episode without Shayne saying “…work”??? 😂
