    my boss stretches the truth sometimes. he allegedly got in trouble and written up one year for using all his sick time despite having doctor's notes documenting it all. don't think that is exactly legal so i am sure he is just projecting his own past fuck-ups onto everyone else.

    i get an extra week vacation and extra week sick january 1 of this year for being here 5 years so i will be wilding out even further with the days i take off. fuck the free world

    they force you to lie to them. so fuck it. Sorry boss, I woke up throwing up the day after the Super Bowl. Don't know if all the beer and wings did it, but that would be my guess.

    Agree with this. Let it all be general PTO and you're much less likely to have a bunch of days where people call in day of rather than planning their time off.

    My side of family is very small. Our Thanksgiving will be my wife & kids, my parents, my brother & my aunt. Will be awesome

    Christmas at my wife's tho, huge diverse family. Despite being a mixture of White, Hispanic, Black & Vietnamese there will still be a lil bit of racism. Grandma is rich, and many of the grandchildren are freeloading pieces of shit that take advantage of her. They recently had a big party for a bitch cousin for being the first grandchild to get a college degree. She got an associates from a community college I have never heard of and still doesn't work. I guess they thought my wife didn't need a bachelors to teach, she got no party and actually was the first. My BIL is insane, one of the great grandchildren is a Bronie, one of the freeloading cousins started a charity where she gets money from grandma and gives to other charities, one of the uncles is an asshole drunk, another creepy uncle, another uncle is in some sort of crazy Christian cult, etc. Hopefully the Cowboys lose so I can watch them all lose their shit. There will be hundreds of homemade Vietnamese egg rolls, that's the only part I look forward to.

    I'll report back

    Let me explain to you how this works: you see, the corporations finance Team America, and then Team America goes out... and the corporations sit there in their... in their corporation buildings, and... and, and see, they're all corporation-y... and they make money.

    Let's get back on track.

    Reddit:
    I was around 5-6 years old. Us kids were playing hide-n-seek and I hid way in the back of Grandma's closet. While I was hiding back there, I found this beautiful deep red robe, I assumed it belonged to my grandfather who died just after I was born. I tried it on and it was huge on me but the silk felt really smooth and cool, so I decided to go ask my grandma if I could have it to grow into.

    Turns out granddad was a Grand Dragon in the Carolina KKK and it was his ceremonial robe. The family members who didnt know about this already were highly upset, the ones who knew were embarrassed as hell. There was a small riot when I walked into the kitchen wearing it. That was an awkward Thanksgiving.

    I get so stressed around the holidays. Four families is a bitch. Wife’s family (both sides) is three hours away. Mine is 1.5 and 4 hours away. Both sides of my family plan things about a week in advance. Hers plans months out, which I love. She is also a charge nurse that makes the schedule, so she has to be a martyr most holidays to avoid her employees bitching. My family constantly complains that they don’t get to see her enough. It’s infuriating to explain this twenty times every year. She’s also liberal as fuck and my family is all small town Trump fans. I just bite my tongue every year but I’m thinking of just being honest and getting disowned this year.

    I really can’t wait to have kids so we can pull the “we’re hosting because of the kids, come if you want” card.

    normally Thanksgiving is pretty mellow....my wife's aunt hosts and she lives about 4 houses down from us. Super easy and convenient. This year might be different.....my wife's aunt discovered that her husband of around 30 years was having an affair since 2016 with a woman about 25 years younger. They are trying to work through it and reconcile. They are still hosting but once the alcohol starts flowing, I'm expecting some fireworks from the extended family members who are aware of what went down.
