My biggest pet peeve at work is hearing about all the petty bullshit that goes on between coworkers, so I actively tune those conversations out and just silently nod along. Unfortunately this has deemed me as a virtual safe for rumors and workplace shit fuckery. I just want to get my work done, I don't care who the hell took your activia from the lunch room Debbie.
SnakeBiteScares
Same shit with my friend group. I enjoy listening and I hear all sorts of things
Foxlord
I'm nosey and like knowing everyone's drama and hearing all the rumors without actually being involved in anything.
undertheaurora
Yup. It's like "Sharon let me eat my salad I don't fucking care what Betty said earlier at the copier."
ThatVenezuelanLostINimgur
It looks like is a imgur story time post.

post drama here get rich off points
PokingSmot
I TOOK YOUR ACTIVIA DEBBIE!
DoYouKnowWhoIThinkIAm
God dammit, if you weren't so busy poking smot you wouldn't have the munchies and I wouldn't have to deal with this shit.
KindaSilly
Why don’t you just tell them you don’t want to talk about gossip. Wow problem solved.
Gaitingirl
So much truth to this! It's the same thing for me at my job! I just want to be left alone and not forced to pretend I care about your words.
LegendOfQuailMan
You should definitely make an imgur series of this. After Debbie's bitching, I want to know who has it out for her.
DoYouKnowWhoIThinkIAm
See, I would but I feel like it would be incredibly boring. But Steve is the activia stealer if you must know.
KenjiWaffles
Ain't this some real shit for me too
Metalspider55
I have the exact same situation. Except it's with all my friends.
valoriest
If you don't like drama, WHY are you HERE?
Ispentthelastfewyearsbuildingupanimmunitytoiocanepowder
Hello..I'm in retail management. Would you like me to regale you in all the workplace bs I deal with in 20 minutes?
Xeires
Bide your time. One day someone will confide something in you so juicy it'll be worth a promotion to rat them bastards out.
DoYouKnowWhoIThinkIAm
Oh I wish it was something more interesting than lunch theft or political discord.
IamtheGreatQueenSnugglewombs
My ex did this. We work at the same place. Always had the best gossip.

I don't spread the gossip/rumors, I just collect it all, and silently judge everyone around me.
CaptainObvious3000
Drop one bombshell rumor about someone a year. It'll keep them on their toes
CheshiresShadow
*whispers* secretly I'm a little bit naive.
frankifig
Same until I was just agreeing with people to get what I needed and people started saying I was saying shit about them. Back to shutting up.
321Cheers
We used to mock that training video that's supposed to teach you respect for fellow employees.
abcdefghijknopqrstuvwxyz
It took me a long time to learn that you can't solve anyone else's problems. It's better that way.
VodkaReindeer
Took me half a year. It's not my responsibility, so it's not my problem.
comehomefransbrauder
Quiet people hear everything.
BarrettM
OR people will gossip with everyone no matter if you are listening or not. Most things that are told to you are prolly well known info
AnExcellentRectangle
Fucking Debbie.
fantasticfurry
It's always Debbie
BossAssSnitch
Same here. I'm the only guy in our 30ish people department. Holy shit women are so fucking catty and assholes to each other. I'm gay now
josethemailman
I learned that early on and generally hang out with guys. A few are really gossip or drama prone, but vast improvement overall.
BossAssSnitch
I honestly believe in that saying, "Women hold each other back." now. So true in this office. All the backstabbing and tears. G'lord
AnneGwishZ
My bf's coworkers are all male (he's a commercial plumber) and have threatened and harassed him to the point he's been through 6 companies
LisaMegatron
I work at a salon. I'm Reina Chismosa
BaldVinnie
I work with 70% men, 30% women. The women are soooo much worse. And I also fall into the 'DGAF' bucket, so they all trust me to 'listen' :(
BossAssSnitch
Hate that. I need to stop being nice and just ask them to stfu
AnneGwishZ
Seriously though, guys are just as bad if not worse in my office.
JediJitsu
Always Debbie
lordyhalvey
Suffer in silence or board the train. Drama sucks lol
LisaMegatron
I work at a salon. I've learned to embrace the chisme.
LionOfRome
This right here is why I hate working with women. I literally do not give a single flying fuck about this stuff. Go 'way.
DoYouKnowWhoIThinkIAm
Don't even get me started about my summer job at my mom's flower shop. All women or gay men. So much drama
LionOfRome
It's a fucking nightmare
FacedownCat
Oh there's a guy at my work who bad talks everyone behind their back. It's not just women.
Curiousone545
Ohhh. See, this is why I hate working with dramatic people. Most of the drama at my job is from.. dramatic people. Guys starting it, & then1
Curiousone545
2)being too "proud" to back down, or compromise. It's beyond ridiculous ,& so immature. I've worked with plenty of mature men/women, it's A+
CloakedFigure
Mass email the entire company everything you've learned if you get fired.

lmfao @ kermit.
DoYouKnowWhoIThinkIAm
Nice backup plan. Haha
WrathCore696
Create the email but don't send it just save it when the time comes because once you get fired you won't have time to do it.

WHY WAIT?!
eldorel
Get a small microphone, and just record your office.,
WellWellWellLookWhoItIs
I know you're probably joking, but in some states that's asking for major legal problems.
eldorel
Only 11 states require consent from all parties prior to recording. The rest only require that one of the parties being recorded consented.
eldorel
Federal law allows for single-party consent to record. 18 U.S.C. 2511(2)(d). ( I will copy it below this)
eldorel
It shall not be unlawful under this chapter for a person not acting under color of law to intercept a wire, oral, or electronic (1/*)

People think I'm good at keeping secrets. I just forget. DONT EXPECT ME TO RELEARN THE NAMES OF YOUR 5 BOYFRIENDS EVERY WEEK KAREN.
elmeromero77
You all are horrible at keeping secrets. You just posted the info on a sharing website.
HeyGuysAmIRelevantYet
Fucking Karen. What a bitch.
CherryEmpress
Hah, same. Then people go "thanks for not telling anyone about that thing I told you," and I'm all "uh, sure, that thing you told me. Yup."
Grumpyrico
This. This is exactly why I am good at keeping secrets
YourBiologicalFatherWhoIsProud
Just know, you now have the power to destroy their lives.
Bean27
Fillipelli just needs to get over Jim and find a nice guy like a doctor who will knock her up...
ImaFreakImaweirdo
Haha same here! In one ear and out the other...
DoYouKnowWhoIThinkIAm
This also helps. I'm real good at remembering numbers and data, but rumors I have no room for.
Kidiri
Covert the rumors to numbers and data.
ThoughtfulSatan
Roomers?
snurx
Shit, I'd have trouble remembering Karey's name.
DoYouKnowWhoIThinkIAm
For real, nobody cares about Kelly anyway, much less her drama.
snurx
For real, though? Employee name tags are the one thing I miss from working retail >.<
