Two part question 1: if I get terminated for posting something accidentally in a work group chat versus a personal one that was vulgar/inappropriate (not racist) when I’m otherwise a very high performer, well liked, and a subject matter expert how do I navigate that in a new interview?. 2: how screwed am I as I was just asked to join an HR call earlier today to discuss said text that was accidentally sent in July, immediately (within 45 seconds) deleted, and unsent but was still reported today?

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.

How early is it to early to take a week off ?? So I just started a new job a week ago.My office is really lenient and supportive of people traveling. But I still feel bad about it.

I’ve noticed that HR, when explaining why a candidate didn’t get the job, tend to lean on “You’re great, but we had candidates with more experience in [skill relevant to the job].” I do believe this is true in some cases, but it can’t possibly be for all of them.

HR folks — what feedback have you obscured by offering that line instead?
