is there a lemmy version of r/thathappened yet?
As a custodian who is often treated like I might as well be invisible, this can absolutely happen. Those who show even the tiniest bit of respect to us are often the only ones and it is greatly appreciated.
I’m sorry if you’re not appreciated enough where you work and I just want to say a deep thank you for what you do - you keep the wheels turning. I used to be friends and neighbours with our custodian (before they moved to a warmer country and we lost touch) and having seen the state of the office in just one day without my buddy when he was off sick (people are such animals), it’s people like you that make a place nice and uplifting to be in. Thank you, fishos.
Well said, fartsparkles. Well said.
Thank you (:
Well, on behalf of everyone who should say so but doesn’t, thanks for making our workplaces, schools, etc. less terrible. Y’all are underrated.
You are not invisible. I see you. You are an essential worker. Imagine what malls, offices and especially schools would be like without custodians. So thank you for the hard work you do.
I appreciate the people who keep our society from imploding and tell 'em. Thank you for your labors dude/ladydude!
Worked part time as custodian after getting out of the military. Definitely felt invisible and unappreciated, but always had someone breathing down my neck if something wasn't cleaned to their standard. But never a thank you or good job.
Now Im a supervisor, (different company) and I always make it a point to talk with cleaning staff when I see them. They work too hard to be taken for granted, and Im always pushing up on my managers that our cleaning staff are underpaid. I've figured out what drinks and snacks they enjoy so made it a point to leave them in my office with a note for them to enjoy, and a couple of times managed to convince their team lead to let me buy them all dinner after they cleaned up some real messes my team left. Do my best to keep my team tidy and not leaving the place a disaster but our custodians are humble people who like to remind me they get paid to show up and clean up what my team can't. If I could get a keg into my office without getting myself or them fired I probably would.
Much respect. What you do should be valued much more highly.
do you awkwardly go to people at work and say "thank you for being my friend"?
If everyone else ignores me or treats me like shit and this guy spends time with me every day to make my job less shitty? Yeah, I'd thank them and even buy them a coffee.
Right? Like what's so unbelievable about that
I just don't get it. Certain people here think being a friend takes effort. It doesn't and it's appreciated from people who don't get noticed as often as they deserve to be.
It's like that person who said they wouldn't know what to talk about with a janitor if they were rich as if the janitor and the rich person wouldn't have grown up steeped in the same pop culture.
If it's been a really shitty day where things have been being piled on and I'm struggling, yeah, absolutely. Why do you find this something to mock or ridicule or disbelieve?
because the OP paints custodians as awkward and outcast. While OP paints themself as a white knight, they backhandedly paint the custodian as a damsel in distress who needs the OP to rescue him. OPs like this deserve all the mockery.
ok, true enough, but that timestamp is from 2020, so either way it is super recycled
Oh no, an old post in the wholesome sub. Damn. Can't have old happiness in here.
GTFO you troll.
Not wholesome
Paradox of Tolerance
Rule 1 of the sub
What exactly do you think tolerance means lmao
Read the link if you still don't understand
What does the sidebar rule #1 say
Respecting disrespect creates disrespect.
Which, again, is the paradox but you're foregoing understanding it so you can stay on your soap box. Nobody is impressed.
You don't have to respect it. But you're not allowed to be disrespectful yourself.
Wat are you talking about
You're running defense for the disrespectful comment and preaching the rule. (soapboxing).
Letting disrespect fester isn't gonna make this place any more wholesome. You're missing the forest for the trees.
I'm just saying it's not according to rule. It's not such a big deal
You've made it out to be
Not my intention
Not wholesome
Not wholesome
Is there a lemmy version of r/nothingeverhappens
This guy's (image not op) whole thing on Twitter seemed to be post something like that and then 5 donation posts. I couldn't determine if legit but seemed sketchy so I blocked.
More like r/nothingeverhappens God, it gets old interacting with r/thathappened peeps. We get it, you don't believe a downvote is enough, or are "too good" to use downvotes. No one cares.
All the posts are along the lines of "I was walking down the street and I found a $100 note on the ground", yeah, it's entirely possible that it happened, stuff that's unlikely isn't impossible, especially given the global population of 7 billion people.

It's dormant, but it exists!
Is there a /r/nothingeverhappens yet?
