How long does your gf/fiancee/wife's daily recap take? (& Shacks' FB revenge)

[Emo EMAW]

It was really bad when my job consisted of me talking to people all day and her job consisted of staring at a computer screen.  Now we both have medium interaction jobs and it's much better.  Most days we don't even talk about it. 

[SkinnyBenny]

Yeah it's a weird thing with everybody in my line of work I think. They always ask everyone how their day was. They're being genuine and it's very nice and all, but like, I really just wanna talk about cat football, you know?

[puniraptor]

I told her once that she is only living half a life because she tells me literally word for word second by second what happened that day.

Hey ben ji, how are you today?

Doing great, 23 days till cat football.

BOOM

How long does it take for us to vent about our days to our fillies?

[HerrSonntag]

I usually tell her about all the new design patterns I implemented in C++ 

If you implemented an asynchronously related set of classes, do you wait until later to tell her about the other half of your day?

Most days we don't even talk about it. 

Well I don't believe that for a second. No husband should.

6 seconds?

Work's work.

Oh, man. Forgot about this thread. Hello, old friend.

My wife starts in one direction/topic and gets off on tangents very easily.  I have to ask her if the copy room shenanigans relate to the main direction/topic and she will either continue on said tangent or refocus.  She loves retelling her day. 

I have no problem with it.

Tip: When they complain about a co-worker with bad attitude, do NOT say "well maybe they were just having a bad day."

Tip #2: When they complain about noisy light fixture for 11th day in a row, do NOT say "hey have you ever considered asking someone to fix that?"

[Emo EMAW]

I do remember one time I was nearly slaughtered when she told me that (during the summer) her office was so cold she plugged in a little electric heater under her desk.  At the time my job was focused on making commercial buildings more efficient so I scolded her.  Pro tip:  don't give an eff if you're not paying the bill.

I enjoy it

I enjoy it 

me too

[Emo EMAW]

I'm really bad with names and remembering who's who so the stories aren't entertaining.  Like remember when I kept mixing up dlew and fanning?  Also to me 'clams and 'stone are the same person.

ya me 2

[Cartierfor3]

I enjoy it 

me too

me 3. I married my wife because I enjoy her company, so that includes discussing the events of the day.



Also, Wonder Years rules. Wayne is probably a top 5 TV character all time. Remember the one with the fishing trip? So good.




Also, heaters in the summer because of AC? Talk about your 1st world problems. That drives me bananas.

[pissclams]

oh boy, maybe we should just rename this thread the valentine's day's lover's paradise thread for all who love their lovers

good grief

Girlfriend was recently sexually harassed at work.  She complained about it to me for weeks but was afraid to complain to her boss about it, even though the dickhead had a history of doing this crap to coworkers.  Eventually I said she could either tell her boss or I would handle it myself because it was starting to piss me off that she just let this guy harass her and wouldn't do anything about it except complain to me for hours.

She asked what me handling it entailed.  I explained that it would include me sending the guy's wife a Facebook message detailing her husband's workplace behavior and then finding him at his favorite bar, pretending to be gay and touching him until he got the message that people don't enjoy being groped like that.  She decided to finally report him.  They're now scheduled for different shifts most of the time.  The daily recap was shortened by 65% and I no longer have to waste brainpower coming up with solutions to problems she is reluctant to fix.

Sounds like the real good news here is that your GF isn't being fondled by someone she hates on a daily basis.  Also, you should still send that creep's wife the detailed FB message.  Who cares that the shift change was made.  Still a fuckhead.  Just a fuckhead that is someone else's problem now.  May cease to be someone else's problem if Mrs. Fuckhead got the inside deets on Mr. Fuckhead.

[Emo EMAW]

Also guys I'm a problem solver so sometimes she's just trying to vent and here I am engineering solutions to her issues but really she just wants to talk.  When we have these talks now I ask first if she's venting or if she's expecting some discussion.  That has worked really well for us.
