The only revenge I ever got:

Me: I think I’m autistic.

Coworker: No you’re not. Trust me, my brother is autistic so I know what it looks like.

*after the coworker has left and come back a year later*

Me: Hey do you remember that conversation we had last year about me not being autistic?

Coworker: Yeah?

Me: I got diagnosed. I am autistic. You were wrong.

I cried today at work.

There was a girl who was kind of a new coworker, and I complimented her voice. She was shocked, and thanked me profusely, and told me that she is very insecure about her voice and that it meant a lot to her that I liked it. She said that just yesterday she had been feeling down because of how much she disliked it.

I didn’t cry a lot, but my eyes got watery and a few tears leaked out. I was devastated that she didn’t like her own voice, because I adored it so much and it hurt that she didn’t see the beauty in it. But mostly I cried because of how sincerely she thanked me, and it felt so good to be able to lift her spirits at least a little bit. As I walked away and continued my work, it dawned on me for the first time in my life that perhaps I really am useful, and that I am a good person.

If all I have accomplished by the end of my life is complimenting her, then her reaction alone makes my life worth it.

One of my best friends will no longer be my coworker, so that means that now more than ever I cannot tell her that I love her, because her leaving means most of our interactions will be through texts, which means it will be easier to idolise and create my own image of her. The bad news is, I was talking about love languages with her and said I wanted to spend money on her because “money is my love language”, and then she said she loved me “too” and then I realised I inadvertently told her I loved her so anyway life was a mistake

I had been speaking to my coworker, and then I had to leave, but she called my name and I turned and was like “What?” and she just smiled and happily said “Love you”

does she know how much she melted my heart with that? It was so pure??? and wholesome??? and just so out of the blue like sweetie honey are you really out here making me happy with just two words?? I keep thinking about it because it really was just the cutest thing. And I’m not even that close to her. She’s my friend but I never thought I meant that much to her and then she’s just out here casually dropping affection and I’m just

anyways

I JUST REMEMBERED THAT MY COWORKER PAT MY HEAD TODAY AND IT WAS THE CUTEST THING EVER

I have never had my head pat before, but I always found the idea endearing, and then she pat my head as she passed by and I just kind of froze and didn’t know what to do and just spluttered for a few seconds because it felt so nice and then she DID IT AGAIN and I thanked her. I sincerely hope I did not weird her out.

Opinions/Advice

I work in a hotel and my friend also happens to work in the same hotel with me. We both work front desk but on the side but I also do waitressing for the kitchen for breakfast 2x a week. I was having dinner after work with my friend/coworker and I was discussing how I’m confused how I’m getting paid more on my paychecks when I’m getting less hours but she reminded my tips are getting added in too (so my pay of 11.50xhoursxtips). She calculated for me on her phone and it did add up but then she realized she’s getting paid less (only $11.25 hourly). Over the next few days we discussed and she felt that she should at least also get paid $11.50 hourly because they want her to work as front desk executive management and we’re having a lot of changes to the hotel and staff. Front desk has been getting more and more responsiblity that usually upper management wouldn’t let us do without their approval, she feels she should be compensated for that because she works full time (I don’t) even if it is .25 cents. And I agreed, they are constantly pushing her to the brink of what she can handle and when other coworkers demand a pay raise or else they would quit (and they have). She texted our manager about maybe getting some answers. Our manager told her that I was paid differently because we negotiated my pay rate at my interview (slightly untrue) and that talking to other employees about their pay rates is against code of conduct in the employee handbook (it’s not, I looked and also it’s against the law for there to even be a policy about that). Now, my manager wants to speak to us separately and my coworker has heard for our operations manager that she is planning to write us up/reprimanding us for talking about our wages.

So, I’m just asking in this situation what would you do? My coworker says she’s going to quit if she gets a write up but I think it would be best to talk to our corporate management company (HR).
