Everyone says 'let me know if you need anything' but nobody actually means it. It's just corporate filler language. I tested it once by actually asking for help and the person looked shocked. Are we all just speaking in empty phrases?

You hit the nail on the head. The minute I let someone know I need a favor, suddenly all I hear is crickets. I hate how people just say that to say that.

Exactly! It’s like a polite reflex, but no one actually expects you to take them up on it. Frustrating when you realize it’s just words.

I’m really grateful that I have such a supportive company. When I need things, they actually help me out. But I’ve definitely worked at places where you could tell they didn’t mean it and would be stunned if I actually expressed any needs for support.

It’s wild how some places say it just out of habit, but then you actually ask for help and it’s like you broke the script. Feels great when a company actually follows through, though!

I’ve experienced this before at my last job. It’s like people are not there to really help you when it’s needed. Since I moved job, I have a team that is helping and we have each other’s back.

Exactly! It’s such a relief when you actually find a team that genuinely has your back, it makes all the difference.

I’m dealing with a difficult management situation and don’t know what to do, how would you report someone when nobody really cares what’s going on or is automatically going to side with the other person?

There should be more exotic vetenarian locations than what is offered. I owned a pair of lovebirds and finding affordable petcare within proximity of our home was fairly difficult.

In honor of National Voter Registration Day, The New Yorker released the transcript of a previously unpublished interview with James Baldwin, who gave a first-hand account of "Freedom Day 1963," a Black voter-registration drive in Selma, Alabama. Baldwin's descriptions from that day are so vivid and detailed that you can feel the fear and anger of the event. If you have a couple of minutes, I highly recommend you read it.

Help- my SIL showed me two dresses she rented for my shower, and I think they are super bridal/not very appropriate to wear as a guest or bridesmaid. I have asked others and they agree. I feel like my own outfit, a simple jumpsuit, pales in comparison to how over the top these dresses are. What can I say or do? I feel really down but also don’t want to start WW3 by saying something to her. I feel like I now need to rush to buy a new outfit.
