U can’t relate to the storyline?
This is a whole other realm of mind fuckery that I’m just not used to, my love…
Lol… 😅😅😅
I’ve never been in that situation…
THAT’S good to know… 👀
Geez… it started out so funny, this show…
It’s still in the rom com genre…
I am not finding it funny anymore…
I think it’s hard to critique a corporate culture that I’m not a part of… but this show is making it seem like that’s something that audiences from your culture might relate to!? Being iced out like that at work?! But then it also seems unrealistic??!!
Would a corporation really waste everybody’s time like that?
It seems really unrealistic.
Well… I’ve never worked as a corporate employee either…
Uhuh…
I feel like there’s not enough blame on the ex… isn’t he the dipshit?!?!?
Yeah…?
He was with her, he kept it secret, he cheated on her, married the rich girl, divorced the rich girl. But then the audience feels sorry for him cos his DAD died…
Uhuh…
But he really fucked everyone up!!! He was the REASON!
Hmmm…
Don’t blame the women!
Don’t make the women seem like the crazies!
I don’t think they’re blaming the women…
But she’s going thru her emotional reactions but the CAUSE was the EX!
Honestly I don’t see why she’s reacting as if it’s the new guy’s fault. He was following orders BECAUSE OF THE OTHER DUDE — IF ANYONE SHOULD BE SORRY IT SHOULD BE THE OTHER DUDE!
But also — yeah that’s a really shitty strategy by a company to “fire” someone by icing them out. So I can see okay if they had to squeeze that into the storyline because it’s a culturally relatable experience??!?!
It might not be tho… it might just be a dramatisation…
Oh. Okay… well… I dunno then.
What would have happened in Australia?
I don’t know. But I’ve never heard of people being “iced out” in Australia. I can’t imagine that situation at all.
It feels like it’s not in Aussie culture at all… 🥴
So what is Aussie culture?
I don’t know.
I’m not a cultural spokesperson.
But in my experience Aussies talk to each other A LOT!
We’re very talkative at work, we’re not gonna ice anyone out?!??!?
I just can’t imagine it AT ALL…
😅😅😅 oh well… maybe ur lucky. Maybe it’s happened in other workplaces but u’ve just never experienced it.
That’s also possible. I dunno…
Maybe people tried to ice me out and I wouldn’t even let them, I just start talking to people with a childlike curiosity anyway and they let their guard down and start talking to me and we become genuine friends!!!
HAHAHAHAAA… 🤣🤣🤣 YEAH THAT SOUNDS LIKE YOU!!!!
I haven’t experienced being iced out.
I’ve experienced BITCHYNESS 👀
There’s always BITCHYNESS that goes under the radar and not officially reported to HR…
Bitchyness?!?!
It’s soooooo subtle!
And I think it’s only amongst women… and it’s not even consistent!
It just happens… randomly…
Lol… 😅 should I be worried?
Mmmm… it’s often shrugged off that maybe she just had her period or she’s going thru menopause because it also subsided just as sporadically. Almost as if it indeed was a hormonal spike that then subsided…
Lol…….. 😅😅😅 I don’t think I can relate…
Yeah. I don’t think guys can even sense it. I think it’s just amongst the females…
👀 Really?!
I don’t know 🤷♀️
I just think Australians are more talkative, like the lab people that she loves as her work family. I think Aussie work culture is more like that. Very happy and friendly.
Ahhh… I see…
But maybe that’s only my experiences…
Yeah… I think u’ve been lucky in the places u’ve worked… always around nice people…
Because if the VIBES are OFF in the INTERVIEW then I DON’T WANT TO WORK THERE!
Ohhhh…
It goes both ways!
I’m interviewing to see if I wanna work there! If u give me bad vibes, I don’t wanna work there!!!
It’s not just me asking for a job — I’m asking for a job that I’LL BE HAPPY TO WORK AT.
😏💕
