I suspect that you are so pathetically melodramatic and likely one of those people who regularly says “I can’t even!” or, “OMG my ex is literally psychotic!”.

“Sociopathy” is hardly a diagnosis for a person who flushes tampons, get a grip Karen.

Ok, I’m with OP and have flushed in every apartment in Chicago I lived in, no issues. If there’s a sign saying not to or I’m at friends house I won’t. But also, can we talk about etiquette? Now that I’ve removed my IUD and bleed like a fucking COW I am often amazed at the mess they make. What are we suppose to do, waste a mile of toilet paper to wrap every tampon? THERES GOTTA BE A BETTER WAY

I usually do a layer of tp and then wrap in the wrapper from the new tampon around it to make sure it stays. If only open trash cans are around i may try to bury it under a tissue or two or throw a couple loose pieces on top.

I'm struggling with imposter syndrome. I'm from a working class background, c.10 years exp in marketing & c.3 years in snr leadership. I'm in an exe leadership team with all men. It's all very fluid. Frequent restructures. Bitching/gossiping at snr level.

I went client side and am miserable - it’s madness on this side. Have made it 90 days and would prefer not to make it more than 120 - but we’re in a pandemic. Half of the problem is that I “onboarded” remote and the onboarding was TERRIBLE. The other thing is that there is no process and I’m on a team full of managers who have spent 15 years at this company and have no availability to talk to me with a day full of meetings. I’d prefer not to quit without a backup but I cry every day.
