Confessions
(we haven't done this in awhile)
I work in an open office, with my back to everyone. I used to wait till my coworkers left and i was alone to pluck my chin hairs. But today I couldn't wait and went tweezer happy out in the open. Felt good.
ETF: I of course, did my eyebrows in the bathroom with a mirror like a real human being.

Re: Confessions
My coworker was caught sleeping at her desk (again) yesterday.
I had to stop knotting, making my grocery list and placing an Ulta order to join in the shit-talking.
Also, my coworker is listening to pop radio. I snuck into her cube and turned the volume down while she was in the bathroom.
I do not get paid enough to listen to Taylor Swift.
LOL I don't think I know who they are either (I'm 30).
This same coworker switches between pop and Christian rock radio. I try to keep my radio quiet because I listen to death metal and shit like that so it's definitely not office appropriate. She's asked me like 4 times if I would turn my radio up loud enough so we could both listen to it. She doesn't believe me when I say my music isn't office appropriate.
I do laugh a little though when I hear her Christian rock while I'm listening to something like Dying Fetus.
I used to have a co-worker who did the bolded (Christian music) and I would put Denis Leary on.
I would argue that my music was awesome as well, because.....the 60's!
Back in my single days, the one and only time I went on a date with someone younger than me by more than a year. I was 24 or 25 and he was 19. We were talking about music and who our favorite artists were. I told him it was a little old school, but my all-time favorite singer was Pat Benatar. To be fair, her main body of work was a little before my time, but still.
He didn't know who she was! I didn't actually say it, but was thinking, "Oh honey, you are way too young for me." Dealbreaker! Not really, but it was a blow to morale, lol. When I named some of her hit songs, he at least recognized one of them (sigh).
I've also eaten most of my office nutella by spoon.
Today.
I would SO JUDGE you if you were my coworker.
When I was at our other location, we had someone who would walk around without shoes. It totally grossed me out.
In my defense though, I didn't know what was popular when I was in high school. I listened to country (before country was cool) and older metal.
Fair enough! I have a body related one for you. About 5 minutes before our potential tenants came for our showing last night, I luckily looked down at my feet. I'd been wearing black clogs all day and the outside of my heels and back of my ankle looked like they were coated in black dirt. Like the onset of the Plague was returning to mankind.
I spot washed my heels and ankles with soap. Changed my shoes. Good to go, lol!
Okay, so, last week I clogged the toilet at work. I PANICKED. We have like 10 women down here so someone was bound to come in. It was not. going. down. I was so worried I'd have to ask for help. I plunged it for what felt like a freaking hour before it finally went down.
I was literally shaking I was so nervous.
I just do it more often - or at least most noticeable because I'm often up and grabbing stuff from filing cabinets, etc. Also I double check my feet don't stink - socks don't get removed if they were on in the beginning lol
Feet stink? Shoes stay on. No one needs stinky office lol
At least yours went down, mine didn't. I had to talk to building management - apparently that's not uncommon with that toilet. I now do not use that toilet.
I clip my nails at my desk. Yes - I am that person! But I have a semi-private office and currently do not have a roommate. And when I did have a roommate, I hated him so I didn't care! I also keep tweezers for when new eyebrow hairs grow in and bother me, I keep a small mirror too so I can pluck from my desk!
Ex-roommate was caught sleeping many a time! One of the reasons HR got on his ass, they eventually caught him lying.
This ex-roommate - his aunt (who I love and is amazing!!!) is/was my realtor. We are starting to buckle down to save for new siding. We have some brick that has not aged well. I want to call and ask her if painting it will hurt our resale value or if we should go with the fancy stone overlay. But I feel like she will want to talk about his firing! She often would talk about him and our work in general! They are also a very close family...
DH has purchased four Kinder eggs. That's the extent of our Easter Bunny prep.
Also, in the last week I've walked into furniture at least 3 times and I have one giant black and blue on my right thigh.
Don't tell my kids but every day this week I have thrown out something. I'm tired of toy clutter especially if it's something we don't use.
Last one - My birthday is coming up and DH has been a turd and won't get me a cleaning lady.
OMG I'd cry. And quit my job. It used to be so enjoyable to poop on company time.
My company owns this building. The owner's dad (who is still in the office every day and the CFO) would have had to go in there and mess around with my poop.
I don’t think I’d tell a priest in confession that I lied to a nun during Holy Week, so thanks for starting a confessions thread @CharmedPam !
I don't know if any of you remember, but there was a discussion about Kinder eggs on here a long time ago. Something about them being so good, but illegal in the U.S. Peeps talking about sneaking them over the border after visits to Canada.
Many of us, myself included, had never heard of Kinder eggs. But when I started seeing commercials for them, I remembered the posts and decided I had to try one. It was good! But, considering I'm not a 5-year-old and just threw the toy away, I thought they were really overpriced and probably wouldn't buy one again.
