In person? My first job was pretty sweet, pretty much everyone understood worker solidarity, even most of the management was good people. One day i warned my friend that i was probably not going to show up the next day, you know just giving him a heads up. Well this new hire overheard and apparently went to management over it! I got chewed out by the only guy in management that acted like managing a shitty big box store in the middle of bumfuck nowhere was a holy calling worthy of power and respect.

Ending unrelated to the boot licking; after that, this prick has the audacity to act like i was his buddy he could be a bigot with. don't know why he thought i was his guy there (i was white and the most heteronormative looking man in tht department, but even then i openly hated him and was super close with the openly and obviously not cishet guy) but i got him fired over it.

I should be a little grateful though, he taught me that not every homosapien is a real person.
