    I worked in a workplace where a bunch of self proclaimed “Alpha” dudes were just kidding around. They ran the culture of being assholes to people and most just tolerate it because these dudes were untouchable.

    Like a pregnant coworker would walk by and they’d go, “What a waste”.

    And if you got upset, “just kidding relax. Just a joke.”

    Shit is toxic.

      Yup, and they’re probably ugly as fuck themselves. I’m just not putting up with it anymore.

      “Your mom wasn’t joking last night.” is my favorite response. If we’re in the gutter, let’s wallow there for a while, and your mom jokes bring the situation to light for all.
