    I was a contacted technician at a retail store. They hired a new salesperson, immediately gave me weird vibes. On his lunch break, he came over to show me what I thought was going to be a meme on his phone - it was porn.

    He was asked not to return for a second shift.

          Drag shows are not necessarily pornographic, they’re often just theatre and comedy, and I’m confused how you got this impression that they are pornographic.

          The most well known drag queen in Australia for decades was Dame Edna (now deceased) and no one would have batted an eye at going to watch her perform with work colleagues.

              If you think Dame Edna wasn’t a drag performance you’ve lost the plot.

              https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_show

              The way you’re equating all drag performance with pornography or “lewd acts” is equally ridiculous. Not all drag shows are dancing.

              You must think that all women on streaming sites are cam girls by that logic.

              You are very clearly anti-something, by the looks of it anti-intellectual might be a start.

                  Oh so my example of a man, dressing as a woman, and doing a performance is a bad example because it doesn’t fit your clearly borderline pornographic concept of drag shows but I’m missing the point?

                  Please elaborate.

              Dressing in drag and putting on a comedy show isn’t the same as a “drag show”.

              yes it is?

              you’re thinking of burlesque. Burlesque has implied nudity, drag shows are comedic.

      On the technicians line of an electronics manufacturing facility, had a new hire come in on his first day. He was friendly. So much so that he wanted to use my workstation to log into his Yahoo mail and show me some pictures some female sent him. He calls up the photos and it’s full nudity real big on my computer monitor. I tell him “dude, we can’t have porn at work, close that out.” He panics and turns off the monitor. At some point I have to turn the monitor and close out of the browser, when no one is looking.

      He was showing a pretty inattentiveness to his first day on the job training just not seeming to want to have anything to do that’s any kind of actual work.

      Before the lunch break, he announced that he’s going to the restroom, then is never seen again. All I could tell the supervisor was that he said he was going to the restroom hours ago then haven’t seen him since.

        Ctrl+W closes the current tab in most modern browsers. For the future.

        There’s so many lazy as fuck people like that. It’s incredible. I wonder how they survive?

        Over the years I’ve seen about a dozen people who just walk out while claiming they’re going to the bathroom.
