I have tested as "color superior". At my work, we had to match colorant of the product we were manufacturing. It requires a sign off from someone who can pass the color test. You line up little color samples in order from lightest to darkest, and I pass everytime.

except this one day. I was the only woman in the department, and you can imagine the shit Id hear on a daily basis. I had failed the test and I said, "ahh its probably cuz my cunt is bleeding, Im not feeling my best and I probably fucked it up" or somethinh like that, I forgot what I said exactly, but I got a chuckle from my coworkers however I worded it.

Later thay day HR called me in. I think the dork who admin. the test bitched I said that. When she told me, I laughed "do you know what I hear daily out there on the floor? Ive never complained once and I hear wild shit all the time". I promised not to make the same comment and left the meeting laughing to myself

little bitch boys will talk all the shit, say aweful things, be misoginistic, bigoted, but they draw the line at "my cunt is bleeding"

fucking babies.

He's a blister: shows up when all the work is done.

Sometimes I rather enjoy working for boomers. My boss will just light up a cigarette in the shop, we rag on eachother constantly and joke about hanging ourselves from the rafters.

[-] Napster153@lemmy.world 11 points 12 hours ago

The genuinely good baby boomers are definitely a highlight to socialise people. Really good, appreciative folk who do they're best.

That's starting to happen with Gen X already. As you get older you give fewer shits.

My coworker got in trouble for using the word "circlejerk" in our AI Slack channel.

Seems like his speech to corporate translation isn't working correctly.

[-] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 1 points 5 hours ago

It is called brainstorming in corporate lingo.

[-] A_norny_mousse@piefed.zip 3 points 4 hours ago

In corporate (and many other) settings it's likely to be a circlejerk, but brainstorming per se is not.

[-] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 1 points 2 hours ago

So we agree ! How can i turn this in a debatable offense ? XD

You have to give the channel a more covert name. We have a Teams channel called "Work". It consists entirely of shitposts and memes.

lol it's to talk about new AI tools and just a bountiful smorgasboard of toxic positivity.

[-] criss_cross@lemmy.world 1 points 44 minutes ago

“I love having this tool vomit unintelligible garbage at people and making them figure out what I’m trying to say!”

“Me too! I wonder if I can offload everything in my life to the random token generator!”

“I’ve been using model 7.5 and can really feel the difference in quality between my garbled output! Whereas 7.4 felt awful and slow 7.5 feels like it knows me!”

Every damn AI channel.

"Unless it's being properly maintained and gets sharpened as needed."

[-] pilaz@lemmy.world 6 points 19 hours ago

"In that case, someone other than the pencil ought to do that job, don't you agree?"

[-] blanketswithsmallpox@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

I don't think it's cut out for this work. The pencil refuses to be sharpened or only stays sharp for a day at a time and eventually ends up trying to stab anyone who wants to use or sharpen it.

But, we eventually we have to talk about real life problems instead of pretending everything is simple. Sorry, pilaz, you're fired.

[-] Saapas@piefed.zip 11 points 23 hours ago

That second guy hasn't heard of pencil sharpeners

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 4 points 14 hours ago

The company keeps me sharp, that's why I'm almost dead

[-] StillAlive@piefed.world 12 points 1 day ago

"Give me a tug and I'll be sharp again."

[-] Janx@piefed.social 8 points 19 hours ago

That's another meeting with HR.
