I Think it's Time to Retire

[dvarapala]

Below is a slide from the Sexual Harrassment training that all employees at my company are required to take every year. Basically it's now illegal in California to not play along with a co-worker's mental illness.

Another in a long list of reasons people are leaving that Socialist shithole.

I’ll retire when I’m dead. Until then I will never play the woke game.

Even the real estate racket has gone woke. I’ve been fined by the MLS for having “close to the hospital” in a listing.

Then they literally sent me a list of approved and non approved words and phrases. Apparently “Mexican restaurant” is not ok but “Italian restaurant” is ok.

I retired six years ago and cannot believe how much my former employer has devolved

[Patsgarage]

I highly recommend it.

I worked my last corporate job 3 decades ago and I saw the early signs of all this. I vowed never again. If I had to work woke corporate, or woke state, the minute I got called into HR for some bullshit, I'd announce right then and there that I was coming out, in their office, in public, as tranny, insist on being called ma'am, and start using the women's restroom, etc.

Then I'd start complaining about anyone that didn't celebrate my bravery or misgendered me.

I retired 13 years ago.

The corporation I retired from completely dissolved a year after I retired. Seems I wasn't the only one who wouldn't put up with their shit any longer.

What's wrong with "close to the hospital"

How much was the fine?
I would have fought it.

My brother got tagged for advertising a rental "in a nice neighborhood" in Norfolk - no fine but the Virginia Ledger wouldn't post the ad with that phrase.

Play their own game by their own rules. Make up some completely ridiculous and unpronounceable pronouns and haul everyone into HR every time they either can't remember them or mispronounce them. I suggest "grkl" and "trpx3".

Bottom line, if everyone makes up different pronouns, it will be next to impossible for everyone to memorize them and remember them, rendering the whole thing moot and absurd. They will eventually be forced to back away from this policy.

strangely, the term "master bedroom" was not on the approved or unapproved words/phrases list. Hmmmmm.....

100 bucks. There is no fighting it. I was told to change it to "near medical facilities" I told them they are nuts. I didn't change it, I removed it all together.

I have another 100 dollar fine pending for not including a picture of a commercial building that was listed and withdrawn.
I am challenging this one.

Fascists these MLS boards are.

[Big bob]

I would never make in woke work place. I was given special attention years ago at a sexual harassment class when I asked if harass was one word or two?

When you turn in your retirement papers and resignation, include a picture of this slide as the reason why. Then, move out of that shit hole state.

I hear Montucky is nice. Yeah, Montucky would be a great place for you

Another real glad to be retired! (20 years now) Contrary to my normal for the most part none belligerent way on line I'm a different person, in person. I have a habit of saying whats on my mind and let the chips fall where they do.

With all this faggot type bullshit and little woman attempting to do a mans job and getting that pay scale for heavy construction its not a workplace i want.

I have a funny feeling due to the bullshit crap of today I would not of made near as much money as i did years ago.( I would not be hired or hired canned fast) The liberals and other assholes have certainly changed things a lot and not for the best!
