Something funny happened yesterday. Ordered take out for my family and went to go pick it up. I get there mask on, cold, my jacket is zipped to my nose. I'm like I'm here to pick up. He's like"how are you". Im like good. Then he's like"you're not going to ask me how I am". I'm like "sorry, how are you". He said he's good. Then her offers me some tea and was like drink this. So I take it politely. As I'm drinking it taking off my mask, dude is staring at me. 😭😭 Continued in comments

I actually can’t believe you drank something on the spot just because he offered. If a creepy guy was offering me a drink when picking up takeout I would think he is trying to drug me tbh.

By a creepy dude who is staring at you? Also have never been offered a drink if I’m just picking up takeout, that’s super inefficient if they do it for everyone who comes along.

Context matters.

Then I'm paying for the food. Get the food and making sure I have everything. He offers to help me bring it to the car. We get outside and he's sarcastically making a joke how oh "it's so cold". So he brings the food to the car ( my parents were in the car) and I leave. 3 hrs later i receive a call from the restaurant 😭😭 I didn't pick up but I'm 99% sure it was him cause I don't need anything else and wasnt missing anything else. Told my bf and he's like he gotta jump him now 😭😭😭😭

Reading all your comments. My bf is definitely not the jealous type lol. And yes I'm glad I didn't pick up the phone. I didn't miss anything from my order so I was definitely not going to pick up.

LinkedIn is a garbage app where I can’t even post my opinion or experience because it will go against the mainstream ideologies. If I even “like” a post then I worry that my peers and managers see what I like and suddenly I need inclusivity training. What a load of shit! You can’t be who you truly are on that app. Which is why I like fishbowl so much, the anonymity is a game changer. If LinkedIn was a anonymous, we’d see a lot more support for Kanye and a lot less LGBQT material. Bet!

My last position (horticultural assistant) found myself taking on a good amount of projects that were being left unfulfilled, due to coworker politics (a few co worker’s wanted to see the supervisor fall short of expectations) in addition I had difficulty with my manager( sexual harassment) I rejected their advances, and I was laid off in December
