I can’t stand parents who post photos of their children with dumb captions on the office-wide Slack channel.

Seriously , Don’t like it a bit 😅
My child just made a lemonade today , Give me validation and shower me with likes 😂😂

So it is the captions you have a problem with?

It’s the obvious “look at this ridiculous picture of my child so I can have validation and likes somewhere other than Facebook” posting.

It’s a new level of narcissism

Assume OP doesn’t have children. Parents just love to talk about their children it’s a sign of how much they love them. I’m sure none of them are looking for validation/ likes. They just want to share their cute / silly/ pics and spread some love

Goddamn this thread is bleak. They’re sharing a fundamental part of their life and the response is “ugh get this out of here I have meetings to pretend like I’m listening to and Twitter to refresh!”

Happily childless but love that there are still parents bringing kids into this world, despite how tough it’s become. You know, giving us purpose as a species. It’s more important than anything I will ever do at work, and it’s not close.

Buy/lease now or defer to Q1-2023?

My car broke (engine seized, 10y old). I am interested in 530i ($62k price), however 3year lease is $1,000+ monthly (with $5k down). Monthly lesse payment is 50% more than bmw advertised offers (“south FL dealers are not participating in the program”)

Q to car gurus/experts- should I defer purchase/lease for 6 months? My logic, the impending recession will reduce demand and we will go back to more balanced market (lower prices with negotiation).

I’m always raising my hand and offering to help where I can and no matter what I do, I don’t feel utilized or valued or part of the team.It’s really taken a toll on my confidence
