@jahzbf70554@GraceRoe5142 might be cooking myself at my job then 😬 but i’m an accountant so i can just stay late but i’ve really been pushing it lately w/ the 25 min daily lateness
@Valstevens24@rjb_1998 the law is interpreted pretty literally, if they said “women” it would mean all women. which isn’t who it’s talking about. just because you think legal interpretation should be up to personal opinion doesn’t mean that’s how the law works
@JocastaMoney@rjb_1998 anorexics don’t menstruate either sometimes, are they supposed to say “except xyz” for every possible exception because that would get very wordy very quickly
@QueenoftheUnde6@rjb_1998 like if the time off is ONLY for people who menstruate, why would you lump in all women when some women don’t menstruate do you see the problem it’s just not factually correct
@QueenoftheUnde6@rjb_1998 the thing actually is that it’s not about someone being offended, its about being descriptive. menopausal women would not be eligible for the time off they are talking about, because they don’t menstruate. women includes menopausal ones. so why would they use an inaccurate word?
@EedenEnne for me personally i have contamination OCD and despite always leaving ample time to get ready, when the compulsions get out of hand i am taking 40 minutes to brush my teeth instead of the planned 20. then i’m panicked and more compulsive and taking even longer. that’s how
@lionsdaylight@babyonaplane ok ~as a bisexual person 🤓~ the facts are, calling bisexuality a phase is a biphobic statement AND ALSO a lot of people who have been with the same gender self identify as straight and refer to their own bi experiences as a phase. two things can be true at the same time
@RelieaYuell@Gryffix are you talking about someone specific because i am chronically late and also know that it’s my bad and not everyone else’s responsibility to accommodate me. so now what idiot is that okay or should i kill myself?
@GambelerQuail these are arguably the two worst examples you could’ve possibly picked like both of these professions are infamous for being late/behind
@tee_danja@letalisdream@SaltPretzels427 dentist keeps telling me to floss better on my bottom teeth bc i have plaque buildup but it’s bc i used to have a permanent retainer there so it always collects where it used to be… i’m like trust me bro if you saw how much i floss you wouldn’t be saying this
@toomanymirras@cybelethebest though for the record, if that friend then wrote me 1k words of poetry and fiction i would also be like yes i did tell her i wanted to read it didn’t i. so this one’s kinda on me. then politely accept it and not read it
@toomanymirras@cybelethebest yeah ngl i don’t care about poetry so if my friend was telling me about how they write poems i’d probably be like “wow i’d love to read it sometime” too. what are you supposed to do, be like yeah that sounds boring as fuck and you’re probably an amateur bye
@chibikaijuu@SaltPretzels427 it’s actually surprisingly functional because it only applies to the getting ready process, once i’m showered for the day or not going out that day it’s all good. i just have to wake up crazy early
