My team has a virtual happy hour every week, and almost every time I have to hear about vuvuzela no food 69 billion dead. The one time it wasn’t that was one of my coworkers defending JK Rowling for being a transphobe.

Just today corporate surveillance came up and one of my coworkers (who used to work for the defense industry, go figure) brings up muh see see pee pee poo poo. I told everyone I had other obligations and noped out before I had to hear that shit for the millionth time.

How’s everyone else’s week?

    I just returned to lemmygrad because the desire to do so randomly appeared in my head. Also it’s funny you mention work outings, basically half of my entire division went to see the new avatar movie yesterday! It sucked, but the outing was fun.

        Oh ok. The lockdowns mostly ended in my country a while back. My sympathies for your current situation. And for your shitass coworkers. Sounds tough.

          Lockdown’s over, but most people are still working from home and barely anyone goes into the office. My coworkers aren’t that bad, it’s just that it’s very rare for burgers not to have kneejerk anticommunism.
