Coworkers always cry out of no where when I work with them.

It’s always awkward, because it’s usually my first time meeting them. The woman I was working with tonight mentioned how she use to be a teacher, and then it some how went to her mom dying a few years back, and then her getting a divorce, and a whole bunch of other personal stuff. 😬 it’s out of no where they start telling me a whole bunch of personal stuff when first meeting them, and then they start crying 😬😬😬. I always try to look sympathetic, but I can’t relate to any of their situations like divorce so I’m just like “....that sucks”


Definitely a way to make an awkward person even more awkward around you. Lol

why don't u try to change the subject when u see the direction it's going
@SW-User it literally comes out of no where. Like she mentioned how she use to be a teacher, and I said that was cool and she just kept talking. Like I was going to ask her what subject she teaches, but the subject already changed before I could ask. 😂 she was just rambling.

@Stark sounds like u guys have lots of free time
@SW-User we do. I was eating an ice cream cone and then on SW my whole shift. Although that conversation was like in a span of five minutes.

@Stark that's pretty quick to start crying in front of someone u just met. what flavour did u get?
@SW-User that’s happened to me like three times with working in retail. They usually start tearing up and then go to the bathroom and I’m just standing there confused. It’s just like I don’t even realize they’re about to cry or they’re crying until they’re walking off and I’m just like “😬”. Then they come back and we don’t talk about it lol.

My manager bought a whole bunch of different flavors of ice cream. I was just eating a drumstick.

@Stark lol i guess im lucky i never worked retail. actually, i never really got close to any of my coworkers everywhere i've worked so i can't imagine anyone opening up to me like that.

i had mint chocolate ice cream today 😊
@SW-User lol, but that’s the point I just met her today 😂. Well a couple of days ago but that’s the first time I’ve really spoken to her.

Mint chocolate isn’t good tho

@Stark alabamian weirdos man
@SW-User maybe it’s a bama thing. I remember working with these two ladies who were friends, and they were both having an affair on their husbands with the same guy. So much drama over that. Brandy introduced Ashley to the guy who so happens to be her neighbor and is married also. I think they would have threesomes or something until they got into a big fight. Brandy literally asked me if I wanted to have a threesome with her and that guy. She said he was looking for someone young 😮. I was only 18 at the time and I was so I don’t even know when she asked me I was so freaked out and Kind of disgusted actually. It was awkward because she had to drive me home after she asked me that. It was before I could drive and she invited me and a couple other girls we worked with to her house, but the other girls left for some reason so she offered to take me back home since we lived close. I had dinner with her family ! And she literally asked me on the way of taking me home. She apparently asked another coworker we worked with too and she said no also 🤣

@Stark lmfao 😂 i can't believe some of these ppl. it sounds like a lifetime movie.
@SW-User I always forget about it until I randomly remember, and I’m like “I cannot believe that happened” it sounds fucking unreal.
SW-User
@Stark were u at least a little bit flattered
@SW-User i was until I found out she asked another girl at work. 🤣 She probably would have wanted anyone that was young, and who wouldn’t judge her for it.

@Stark i always wondered how couples recruit a third wheel for threesomes. i thought they just went online or something, not ask their fucking coworkers 😂
@SW-User it’s crazy how stuff like that is actually happening, and it’s not just online. Like she’s having an affair with her neighbor who also has a wife and they all go to church with each other. It literally sounds like a tv show. I’m friends with her on Facebook, and she’s still married. Her daughter followed me on Instagram a long time ago which I always thought was weird 😂.

Brandy told me that she never got to be young when she was actually young, because she got married so young and she’s only been with her husband. That’s why she’s crazy now.
SW-User
@Stark maybe u should hoe out now before u become like Brandy
@SW-User 😂 I’ll just wait until my early 30s to get married instead.
