Like, say someone did that. How bad is that in all reality. I was wondering.

What could happen as a result of this?

I was on a bus today for the first time in probably 10 years. I guy probably dropped like 100 f bombs randomly and everyone could hear him. Is that very trashy or not really?

For example, he said out loud to everyone "so where are you motherf****** going"

I grew up on the West Coast of the United States. Everytime I visit the East Coast for work I think "I could never live here. I would be homesick all the time". How do some people live like this though?

Are they correct, being jealous, not correct, or something else?

Is it sort of like a luck of the gene draw?

Like, if I'm a dentist or engineering executive does that have zero to do with if I would be a good parent? Or would some of the skills translate?

To me, it seems like 1 out of 4 people view at least some coworkers as friends. Then, maybe 1 out of 4 view zero coworkers as friends. Then the rest of people are sort of in between. Like, maybe they'll hang out at restaurants with coworkers and be somewhat social, but not much more than that.

Is there not a right or wrong? Is it just what people want to do?

Sometimes if you don't pay back a loan or credit card company they won't say anything for a long time. Why is that? Are they sitting back to come up with a strategy to get the money from you? Did they write some of the debt off as a loss? Are they hoping you pay them back?Something else?

Like, why does it strongly seem that if you were given $1,000,000 that you would be very happy but in reality you probably wouldn't. Why do humans make this assumption?

My boss is this way. It wouldn't be uncommon at all if I go 3 months without saying one word to him.

I was just curious about other people's experiences.

Pretty much every email conversation my coworker has she starts with saying "good morning" or "good afternoon". But it seems like people only say "good morning" or "good afternoon" back like 20% of the time or less.

Why would she keep saying that if the other people aren't responding to it?

Say I'm a 30 year old guy talking to a mom who has a daughter who's about 30. Then when she asks if I'm interested in dating her daughter I tell her "I'm not interested". Then the parent dislikes me basically. Is that unreasonable or understandable?

I admit I do feel this way about about 1 out 3 coworkers when they leave. It's just like, I simply viewed them as not being very friendly or easy to work with.

Does this sound like a pretty toxic environment? Do you get along with most people where you work and prefer most people to stay?

Basically, I know a guy who's rejecting a girl and the situation just seems really intense/dramatic to me. Is it usually like this?

I don't know much about relationships and dating. I sort of thought people can reject people calmly and move on with their lives easily.

At least when I was about age 15 or younger it seemed like:

1. A lot more people would ask me how I'm doing

2. People seemed to generally care more if I seemed ok

3. People would literally give me stuff for free

4. Seemed like people would watch after you basically

5. Relatives would send money for school or gifts

6. Random people seemed more willing to help you with anything

Is this just me sort of?

Now as an adult I sort of feel like people just care if I'm working, giving them money, and not creating any disturbances for them.

I just feel like it would seem really extreme if you owe $20,000 to someone, have $20,000+ in a savings account, and they're able to take your $650,000 house from you. Can they? I 've just always been curious about this.

I've worked at jobs for about 10 years. I've never received "exceeds expectations" on a performance review. Not once. I've received "meets expectations" everytime except once I received "does not meet expectations". I've never been fired or laid off from a job though.

I thought people on here always say "being a higher performer prevents you from being laid off at jobs". So, I don't understand. It's been about 10 years or longer and I'm not a higher performer. Unless I was lied to.

If you go to a career advice section on reddit someone will say that if you're not a high performer you're chances of being laid off at a job are at least somewhat high.

At least the one's I have had were this way. Like, if I do anything bad and blame could be put on me they seemed/seem to act very nervous. Also, one time one brought up the idea of me possibly being let go and he seemed really nervous when he was talking. He was stuttering a lot and saying he'll try to find ways for me to improve. Why not just say "see ya, you're just not good for this role" lol.

Do I just ignore them or are there good things to say in return to people like this?
