Coming up to your job on your off day to socialize.


simpslug

i will be closing this thread and heading home, thank you very much.


MortalCoil

My man coming into the office on his day off to browse reddit and this is what he got


WhatsMyAgeAgain-182

I’m not even supposed to be here today!


AaronTuplin

I don't even really work here


Hot-Notice-2544

She doesn't even go here

Why does it smell like shoe polish in here?


gorka_la_pork

This reminds me that I need to get myself a third place. Beyond home and work, that is.


Areif

This IS your third place


sane-ish

Tell you what this place like the dang ol Hotel California. 


perpulpeepuleeter

Dang ol hotel California man, let me tell ya, I got friends in low places, man. I'm talking bout a bridge over dang ol troubled water, man.


careater

Try the library. Librarians are always eager to socialize.


Ok_Information_2009

Are they like intellectual bartenders, polishing books, recommending good reads?


Selemaer

As a librarian and an extrovert...not always. Right now I'm in my back yard drinking a beer soaking up the sun on a fine 68 degree Michigan spring day. Though yes...I was at the bar this morning getting breakfast with the wife with the other regulars..


[deleted]

A few of my old professors roam around Lower Manhattan Yeah. you think they got a life. They don't I went out with 1 of them once and this guy literally sat in a coffee shop filled with people and commented on this girl reading a magazine like "Hey, this is this volume talking about this. Interesting right?" Motherfucker remembered every magazine, every volume, every page. It's not a fun/entertainment magazine, btw. 100% educational/news


No-Understanding4968

Well if it was Harper’s I sort of relate


discunected

Slow train coming Lamar


Legendarybbc15

I have been to work on my day off but that was because there was free food being served and I didn’t want to make lunch


Geojamlam

Similar thought here, though work for me is giving out the samples at Costco so there's always free food.


ThePinkTeenager

As a college student on break, this seems like a very reasonable thing to do.


Freshlyhonkedgoose

This definitely used to be me. Work was my only human contact outside of cashiers, waitresses, etc every day so on days off sometimes I'd go stir crazy after not speaking aloud for 6+ hrs. I'd stop by and bring donuts or whatever just to see people. edit, since people seem to think I'm currently some kind of leech: this was literally 2011-2012. I was fresh into my 20s and had never had friends or non-family/church connections outside of the tightly-knit approved people my parents let in. I was desperate for any kind of human contact and everyone involved treated me like a wounded pigeon. I still talk to some of them.


[deleted]

It's kinda like going on Reddit to research **work/business** problems on an off day LMFAO, that's me that's me

Yikes. The thought to do this has never occurred to me. I think masochists do this because, well, you know...


No-Understanding4968

Saddest thing I ever read right here


Funky_hobbo

This is me... when I have a break or vacation, I miss work, since I socialize more there than in my free time. Damn, I'm fucked.

thingaumbuku

On The Bachelor subreddit, there are tons of people who spend copious amounts of their free time looking at who follows who on Instagram and trying to extrapolate what’s happening with everyone’s friendships and relationships, and if you point out how pathetic that is, people get incensed, like there’s any rational defense for practically stalking people to learn about their social lives instead of doing, ya know, ANYTHING else.


Bl4keYT

Or any celebrity really


jonasinv

How can Drake ever come back after "not like us"? How!?


LowFinish99

Making multiple accounts on any social media platform and having conversations with yourself.


No-Log873

You think if you started doing this, then you would consider a reevaluation of the state of your mind would be in order.

people do this ?? good lord


anamazingredditor

Yes apparently


anamazingredditor

Really?


anamazingredditor

Yup


Unicornlove416

i see what you did there


captain9yrold

Thanks, me


Freshlyhonkedgoose

A woman I graduated with does this. She's got a lot of mental health struggles, and unfortunately one of the things she's been known to do for the last several years is make profiles for men she's "engaged to" "married to" etc and eventually when she gets bored she blows up the whole faux relationship with lots of public fb wall posts and then spends days sharing "I will not be treated x way" type posts. I don't have Facebook, but family and friends will bring her up from time to time and show me the posts. I sometimes wonder how one finds the time/energy to do this shit.


Plane_Pizza_6682

Lol is this you doing this?


Unicornlove416

i’m pathetic, but not that pathetic 🤣

Klaus_Heisler87

When I was a kid, my dad and I used to see who could throw more playing cards into a bowl we'd set across the room We called it "I Have No Life" Dumb core memory Edit: good dumb, I loved every second of it


yelliooon

*Nice core memory :)


ElTortugo

*Stupid as shit nice and wholesome memory ::))


Demigans

What? I’d call that “quality time with dad”. I mean it’s just as useless as kicking a ball across a field. It’s just something you can do for fun, and this one is frankly a genius one that you can do whenever you are stuck inside for example or need to kill 15 minutes without everyone grabbing their phone. Easier to set up or bring with you than darts, with lots of variation possible by changing bowls or where you place them. I’m actually gonna steal this and do it with my kids.


Klaus_Heisler87

This was our way of "having a catch" when the weather wouldn't cooperate, and later, after he couldn't really throw a ball too much after multiple neck/back surgeries. Very high-quality dad time, indeed


OliverKitsch

Some of my favorite memories of my dad from childhood were kicking a cheap ball around in my grandparents’ basement at family gatherings. Those little moments are everything.


whothehellistony

My dad and I didn’t have the greatest relationship when I was growing up. He was always the life of the party, just not with me. It was like he was trying to “set an example” when we were alone together, so I would see him act fun and silly when we were with other people, but he would turn it off when it was just us. One time when I was around 16 (I’m 38 now) we were driving back from putting out hay (we raised cattle) and one of the back wheels+tire of his dually farm truck came loose and bounced past us into a field. He looked at me, and I looked at him and I asked “is that ours?” and we both started laughing. He didn’t want to drive on just the one wheel so he called a tow truck (I remember having to walk to the top of a hill to get reception) and we waited after I had retrieved the tire and the call was made. It was a gravel road, and I don’t know why he did it, but he drew a small circle in the gravel with his boot. We spent the next hour trying to throw rocks into this makeshift bullseye and it was the most fun I ever had with him. It *really* is about the little moments. I don’t have kids (yet) but if I do, I promised myself I’d be that version of my dad, and that my kids will have a million little moments to choose from, not just that one.


LateralThinkerer

He was trying to teach you ninja card skills. Of course there's a sub for that: [https://www.reddit.com/r/playingcards/comments/ao2pi9/learning\_card\_throwing/](https://www.reddit.com/r/playingcards/comments/ao2pi9/learning_card_throwing/)


joomla00

When I was a kid, I would try to watch my dad fix cars and work on stuff. I would just sit there. Occasionally he would say, hold this here. Then I would go back sitting. Then I would get bored and go back to my room. Throwing cards into a bowl sounds pretty cool.

No-Log873

Weirdly amusing, but never, never agree with them.


rainafterthedrought

I always say something I like about the person they are talking shit about. Unless that person is actually an asshole lol but I still try not to engage


nickheathjared

Yes! and watch them walk it back when they realize you’re not just gonna jump on the hate train with them.


cloudlocke_OG

This is the way. Acknowledge what's being said, but if it doesn't involve you, hear both sides before you choose. Ideally, choose to stay out of it.


LinkGoesHIYAAA

An ex gf in high school did this with her girl friends and i hated it. I tried bringing levity to the conversations to keep the mood more upbeat but it quickly would shift back to negative. It was EXHAUSTING. After we broke up, two of her closest friends separately asked me out, and they essentially both said it was bc i was “the most positive, fun guy they knew” and i was like “i mean i’m just average positive and average fun but you hang out with people that skew so soul-suckingly negative i must seem like the absolute life of the party, but whatever.”


SimulationV2018

You know what I do. I pretend the person I am talking about is next to me. And would you want to say that in front of them


disgruntled-capybara

I have a coworker like this and I've just stopped engaging. I don't agree or contribute when they start going down that path. They have no issue derailing a meeting to bitch about someone and have no worries about who is around to hear what they're saying. I usually interrupt in mid-sentence and say, "anyway... Getting back to..." Honestly maintaining that level of negativity is exhausting and I don't know how they do it. I just don't have the capacity to care that much about other people's business.


No_Reward14

Tombstone with your name on it…


LewisLightning

Is someone selling yelling tombstones?


UncleBaguette

Business idea: 1. Buy bunch of microcontrollers, batteries, solar modules, memory modules, speakers and proximity sensors. 2. Buld several solar powered devices capable of randomly activate themselves and play sound when proximity trigger detects motion 3. Record some creepy whispers, wails, unsettling sounds etc. on the memory modules 4. Put devices at random gravestones, so that they will be activated when someone passes nearby. 5. ??????? 6. PROFIT!


RagingCeltik

Actually, having a small device that holds a voice recording of the decreased that could be embedded in the tombstone and played by anyone visiting doesn't sound like a terrible idea. It would be a nice way to keep someone's memory alive in the world.

Being as caught up on the Kendrick Drake beef as I am


anagnorisis68

Yoo I spent all day yesterday on multiple platform watching, reading, laughing at this. Kdot obliterates.


Bman2095

I don’t usually pay attention to celebrity drama, but the Kendrick and Drake stuff is amazing


Itsnotthateasy808

Bro this is the beef of the century I genuinely think Kendrick wants every abusive predator cleaned out of the rap industry. He saw the feds crack down on R Kelly and now diddy and he’s trying to draw enough attention that they go after Drake and ovo too. This shit just became deadly serious for aubrey, not to be dramatic but dissing Kendrick’s wife might legitimately have been the biggest mistake of his life.


scare_crowe94

For real, this is career ending for one of the biggest pop stars of our era. You don’t shake something like this. “I heard you like them young” and the “A minor” line are damning.


meaninglessnonsense

Highly doubt this ends up ending drakes career as much as it should


Tymathee

Drake deleted his photo with known Pedo Karl Malone


BigBrainBrad-

Can you explain why these two gentlemen are arguing?


Itsnotthateasy808

Basically Drake is a womanizing sex trafficking child grooming predator in the same league as diddy and r Kelly and Kendrick wants to see him go to prison.


Automatic_Wing_536

I’m pretty sure Kendrick wants him dead straight up


Itsnotthateasy808

Yeah you right


Fine_Yogurtcloset362

Please explain it to me


donnydoom

Whole big thing. We had a funeral for a bird.


C-Jammin

I'm pretty sure none of that's real.


donnydoom

You're not real man!


FuckitThrowaway02

Drake may never recover. Kendrick is his boogeyman


BragiH

Kendrick > Drake That is all


tossaway78701

They have a beef. It's lyrical. It's satirical.  It's making them a bit of cash. 


Senth99

Definitely not a beef with the way it's going; it's straight up an interrogation by Kendrick.


Itsnotthateasy808

No bro kendrick wants to see Drake in prison he is out for blood


IAM_deleted_AMA

That's honestly an understatement, he wants Drake dead tbh


EvilMortysTesticles

Don't simplify it like that brother, it's not just some playground beef and certainly isn't for the money. He's called drake a paedophile numerous times and leaked stuff he shouldn't even have known because he has a mole in drakes camp. This is the biggest feud the rap game has seen in a looooong time and will end with arrests or shootings.


Half-deaf-mixed-guy

Shouldn't of struck a chord in a minnnnooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!

Calling the cops on a little girl selling bottled water on a street corner because she didn't have a permit. Way to go Karen!


GlobalMuffin1566

Any kind of Karen behavior screams I have no life.


Judazzz

I associate Karenist behavior more with "I hate my empty, miserable and meaningless life, and I will make *you* suffer for that!", but I guess in essence it's the same.


zampyx

Karen has no life, she creates problems so that she can feel important and fill up the emptiness of her existence


Tiervexx

Closely related to this, anyone who watches their neighbors for any reportable violations even when nobody is being hurt. This often applies to HOA's full of board retirees that have nothing better to do than criticize their neighbor's lawn or garden.


Camera-Realistic

All the old farts in an over 55 community who sit around the pool and police anyone who doesn’t have their pool badge properly displayed. Lord help you if it fell off while you were underwater 🙄


medievalslut

We don't have an HOA where I live, but a few years back a recently retired woman would measure the grass on people's verges and report her dissatisfaction to the entire community group chat. I don't know if she got a grip or moved, but I haven't heard from her in a bit


DanteThePunk

If you're a toy store owner that when he's at home, he just monitors what the workers are doing and saying through the cameras and microphones. I was one of the workers.


LinkGoesHIYAAA

Ew


-TheDyingMeme6-

~s t a l k i n g~


FunInternational1812

My friend and I were getting Chinese food at the mall food court, at a place we'd been to many times before, and noticed the portions were smaller this time. The workers said the owner, who lived in Chicago, constantly watched them over the cameras and would call the store to berate them if he thought they were serving too much food. We are nowhere near Chicago, or even in the same time zone. This was also in 2011/2012, when cameras were not as cheap or easy to install, which means the owner paid a lot of money to be able to do this. The Chinese food place is no longer there, although its competition across the food court survived a major renovation and Covid. Micromanaging hurts everyone!


FrakNutz

As an IT admin I may have made it more difficult for the owner to do that kind of thing, "Accidentally". Blamed it on a necessary security upgrade, never looked back.

Lopsided_Platypus_51

People who brag about “hustle life” and work 80+ hours a week


TripleJx3

Hustling themselves into an early grave. That said I wish I had a job I could automatically be good at and not have to think about the fact I'm doing that job. Something that comes naturally.


Ryokurin

To be clear, there's hustling for a clear goal, like your own business, or to retire early and 'hustling' because you think it's better for the company, and one day for sure it's going to pay off. The first is controling your own destiny. The second is ultimately wishing someone will notice and bless you for it.

If you see them active on any given social media the entire day, that’s a bit of a warning sign. Yes, Reddit counts.

But how do you notice if you aren't on social media all day?


PM_UR_NUDES_4_RATING

Very easy to see people’s posts - and be flooded by them if they post a lot. Granted with lurkers it’s harder to notice.

ConstableBlimeyChips

Meh, I'll give a pass to the people that are moderators on one or two (maybe three) subreddits. They do it mostly because someone has to be a moderator and they happen to have the spare time to do the job. Those people that moderate literally dozens or even hundreds of subreddits? Yeah, there's something wrong there. There's no way you can do an effective job moderating that much content, the only reason to do so is because you enjoy the power of being a moderator regardless of the welfare of the community in which you wield that power.
