This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

One time I came back from my lunchtime car scream looking particularly haggard and my boss offered me whisky from his desk. I don't work there anymore.

Sorry I may not understand or don't have the full context but is it so bad your boss offered you a drink with him?

Like some sort of bonding right ?

The gesture itself was nice, but the fact that he kept hard liquor in his desk to soothe employees at their breaking point was one symptom of the horrible culture at the company.

I think you misunderstood why an alcoholic keeps alcohol near their person.

Ain't no office party like a p-diddy office party.
