This forum is effective for fostering candor, no matter how ugly or shameful some of the posts and responses are. At least we know what lurks behind the polite veneer of those with whom we work!

Polite veneer?

Ugly and shameful are opinions. Yours.

I'd say you're mighty naive if you think everyone acts like they do at work 24/7. How sheltered can you possibly be. How dull would people be if that was the case. I don't deserve to be thought of as less of a person, or a worse person, because I like to shoot the shit and talk shit with other dudes, and rustle the sensitive Nancys for amusement, when not being productive at work. Learn to live a little.

Hi,

I am 31. Married for 12 years. I spoke to my doctor two days ago about sterilization. It was the first time a gynecologist didn't judge me for that. I know they're supposed to council because of the risk of regret, but sometimes they seem judgy. I am considering getting my tubes tied, but my husband isn't super on board because of the finality of it.

He is ok with not having kids, but seems to think I will change my mind.

Anyone taken this step without having had a y children?

I’ve been in an in-house role since the beginning of the year and just gave 2 weeks’ notice to leave for a much better paying and better titled position. The response has been very petty, to the point that I’ve been called unprofessional even after I asked the hiring attorney whether I could give longer notice at the current company’s request. Is this normal?
