My brain must be working very slowly tonight, but what does this mean?

Glad I'm not the only one.

I'm unclear on how I would use the restroom on behalf of someone else.

And why that would indicate that the boos wanted her to get COVID.

I read it as a female employee was asked by her boss to use the men’s bathroom so that another female employee who might have cancer wouldn’t get COVID19 from sharing the bathroom with the PP.

Correct. Pretty sad that was difficult for multiple people.

Nope, what's "pretty sad" is how poorly it was written.

Also what is previously unconfirmed cancer?

Are we in the same place? I'm not going to work 18 hours/day because they won't hire people. Get out of there.

You, her, and 20 million others. Sorry.

No, there's a limit.

You could probably still sue, that is very illegal.

I worked at a place where it was policy for all staff to travel on Sundays and Saturdays. So we might have a conference/large meeting start on a Tuesday, so participants could travel in on Monday. Staff would travel on Sunday, spend Monday prepping for the meeting/conference. Or have the meeting end Friday afternoon, then we'd have to break down/debrief, etc. and not leave until Saturday morning. They'd let us "charge" our time sheet, but it didn't matter. There wasn't overtime or anything. And the boss said "we own you, 24/7/365."

Being told “don’t talk in a meeting. Just to sit there and look pretty” by my 70 yo manager, who had zero experience in the field.

Manager told me, “I wish I was a black woman so I could be doubly protected!”

My director told me I couldn’t go to lunch with people outside of my department.

My director called me while on vacation to yell at me because someone emailed me a position paper. I flipped out and yelled back at him that I don’t control the actions of others. The CIO ended up making my director call and apologize for his outburst (while he was still on vacation).

In previous post “ truly equitable”. Typo.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion initiatives in my federal regulatory agency are reason to leave. I would hope that the agency is truly suitable; this is not
Project after project and announcement after announcement. We tried to hire interns but couldn’t even get qualified ones with appropriate boxes checked.

+1,000,000. Who wanted whom to 'get COVID"?

I’m confused as well. What does this even mean??

Oh my gosh that is awful! I was once yelled at for being underprepared when outlining a proposal to my boss. Note, I had given birth the day she sent it for analysis...two days prior.

This is why this country is a joke and a disgrace. Maternity leave, anyone?

While presenting in front of a review group, one of the consultants told me to get him coffee. Ummm...I’m standing up here presenting.

Asked by my boss via Skype to “stay right there,I’ll be by to talk to you”. Waited by my desk for three hours...fearing she would come by the second I left. She never came by.

Being told not to speak in any meeting unless being spoken to.

I was an adult with 10 years of experience and a Masters degree. I knew how to comport myself in a meeting.

This is me right now. Our boss expects us to IM / private chat anything we want to contribute to a meeting to her so that she can say it.
