my coworkers are always whispering and it drives me nuts

Two years ago…

the person who’s supposed to train me belittles me when I have questions

my company says we can’t wear underwire bras

Three years ago…

how do I navigate being naked around employees in a locker room?

my boss wants to hire us out for our “unique talents and skills” that have nothing to do with our jobs

Four years ago…

my small open plan office is trying to enforce a semi-quiet work environment and I hate it

my bosses want our remote team to work out together 3 times a week

Five years ago…

I found my boss’s highly critical notes about a coworker

I had a meltdown during an office welcome back party in my honor

Ancient times…
