    At my last job (I was male presenting) I got in trouble with HR because a guy at a work table nearby told one of the women this, and I yelled back “you’d sound a lot smarter if you shut the fuck up” and I guess I was the one being inappropriate.

      You weren’t wrong. Lame they got you in trouble instead of him.

        Can’t have profanity in a workplace full of harassment. It’s unprofessional

          I’ve been working for small companies for too long, I almost forgot about that kind of weird rules setup!
