Anon is a Trans Inclusive Radical Sexist.

[–] [email protected] 95 points 1 month ago (1 children)

the correct word is TIRM. trans inclusionary radical misogynist.

Trans-radical inclusive misogynist doesn't quite work, unfortunately.

Transphobic Radically Inclusive Misogynist

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

I don't think that really works since the entire point is that they're very much not transphobic. They're explicitly being accepting of trans identities.

I think that leaves too much room for sympathy

Trans-inclusive radical misogyny...

Those damn TIRMs and their Conditions

Let's crunch the numbers, would it be financially sensible to pay for m to f transition of Employees, so you can pay them less in the long run?

Mandatory MTF transition as a job requirement on the horizon.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Maga hats say this unironically. It's a Republican scare tactic.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 month ago

With 27% pay cut and the employee having a 3000/month salary and them working a decade in most cases yes

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

„So John… Listen. We‘re not enough revenue to pay you your regular salary. Either you cut off your d*ck, or we‘ll have to cut you off“

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I like that cutting his Pay as man is no option whatsoever

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Now you're getting it!

I was just thinking today that nothing has been more affirming to the masculine parts of my identity as how much of a little bitch I am when I catch even the slightest of colds.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I’ve broken just about every bone in each arm and leg. I’ve seen my own blood more times than I can remember and my own bones peaking out my skin twice. Cuts, bruises and minor burns are generally ignored. One day my clumsiness will kill me, because I refuse to learn. At least I will go out proud.

But a cold will fuck me up every single time. Sometimes for days. And yes, I will whine all the time nonstop.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'd rather have a broken bone once if it means I'll never catch cold again.

Broken leg for couple of months is preferable to blocked and runny nose.

Fuck cold.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

When you're not trying to move the affected bone, it's easy to forget about a break. With a cold you're reminded with every breath, every swallow, and every time it makes you sneeze or throw a coughing fit.

Yep, not a fan!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I don't keel over to the flu. Maybe the bitch here is just you. No need to generalise.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Have you considered questioning your gender? Maybe you just aren't manly enough. If you try hard even you can be a manly little bitch while having a cold /j

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Some people are just outside norms. You definitely have that main character syndrome that most men have though; can't take something not being about you or describing you perfectly and personally as an individual for a whole five seconds without stomping your feet.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

But do you keel over to the common cold? Stay on topic!

[–] [email protected] 57 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Reducing the pay and benefits of your best computer programmer/IT person is not a good move, anon.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago

dw there's a furry in the workspace

[–] dch82 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nah, the real best IT person is working in the basement and hasn’t come out since 2003

/s

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

That person is at home working on personal projects and occasionally checks on the automated systems they set up in the basement 20 years ago

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

"I have no problems with my computers" - "None that you noticed yet"

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Who's saying it's their best programmer/IT person? It could very well be their head of HR or legal counsel.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's an in joke and a genuine trend that there's a large overlap between programmers/IT and trans women.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Ah, ok, I wasn't aware.

I was trying to make a joke that they were such a chad that they'd do this to their legal/HR team.

[–] [email protected] 55 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Be sure to mansplain things to her, too. Oh, "mansplaining" is when you assume they are ignorant about a topic and start explaining it as if they are clueless.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Thanks for pointing that out in case OP's employee is in the comments.

Poster is the person who made the post

[–] [email protected] 48 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Don't forget to pass her up for promotion.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

And talk over her in meetings, and then suggest her idea as if it was yours.
