Work Sucks is there for angry, frustrated workers to post about workplace insanity
New community:
work_sucks
From the Profile & Intro post:
Welcome to the Work Sucks community!
Had a bad day at work? Want to vent your feelings somewhere? Want to point and laugh at the insanity of the modern workplace?
work_sucks is your comm!
Post, comment, rant and commiserate about workplace problems, tech failures, bosses, subordinates, co-workers and customers at
work_sucks.
1. Anonymise your posts and comments, because you don't know who might be reading: "A co-worker" is okay; "[A co-worker's real name]" is not. Same goes for company names and workplace addresses. Anonymous commenting is allowed, but not required: it's your choice. IP logging is turned on.
2. Don't be offensive. "A fat customer" is okay as a descriptor, a statement of fact, or as part of a positive statement. It's not okay as an insult, as part of a negative statement, or as a negative generalisation about whole groups of people. Same goes for descriptors about race, religion, sexual orientation, sex, gender, age, disability, etc.
3. Swearing is allowed. This community is aimed at adults, and meant for angry, frustrated people. Don't complain about swearing unless it's offensive (see 2. above).

Wait, how does that work? I didn't know it's possible to post entries in a community anonymously?
no subject
I'll edit the post to correct that.
