Thanks for the info, co-workers

Co-worker has informed me that her "new man" wants to take her away for the weekend but she's not sure if it will be any fun because she's never sure if she'll have her period and that would take the fun out of it. :: blink blink:: We're not friends, I don't want to know about your a) cycle and b) sex life

Other co-worker has shared that she and her BF got in a fight because his cousin used the N word around her, and she asked him to refrain from using it because it's an inappropriate word. BF thinks she should keep her opinions to herself, and, yeah, it's a bad word but if cousin wants to say it (or does say it or whatever) he can, and she shouldn't express dis-content. Co-worker is part African American.  WTF at the entire thing.

I have no idea why these people shared these things with me, at all. None.

    That is not something I would share with anyone.  Ever.

  • These are things I do not miss about not going into an office. WTF.

  • If I were other co-worker, I'd be single. Her bf sounds like a dickhead.

  • I said the same thing, Mod. She was all "Well, he really just meant that the way I said he shouldn't use it wasn't nice." Um, the word itself isn't nice, so I think you're even.

  • I'm pretty sure listening to them falls under "Other duties as assigned" in your job description.

  • If I was the co-worker with the boyfriend who thinks it is ok for someone to use that term and she should keep her mouth shut, I would not be with that guy. Is she dating the guy from Texts from Bennett?

  • One of the secretaries in my office talks about her period a lot, as it frequently interferes with vacations, birthdays, and anniversaries.  She calls it her "womanly thing."
  • I would appreciate this because I like to know who the idiots are.

    Really? This kinda stuff makes me miss working in an office. I once saw a coirker of mine flip out and start throwing things because they moved the office copy machine and he couldn't find it. Gold, I tell you.

  • When I was still in the office one coworker was arguing with another and one called the other juvenile. His response was to tell him he hoped he died in a fire. I miss the entertainment sometimes.
  • Maybe the BF's cousin and Edith are friends. Which makes it okay.
