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.

Trans-radical inclusive misogynist doesn't quite work, unfortunately.

Transphobic Radically Inclusive Misogynist

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago

I don't think that really works since the entire point is that they're very much not transphobic. They're explicitly being accepting of trans identities.

I think that leaves too much room for sympathy

Let's crunch the numbers, would it be financially sensible to pay for m to f transition of Employees, so you can pay them less in the long run?

Mandatory MTF transition as a job requirement on the horizon.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago

Maga hats say this unironically. It's a Republican scare tactic.

With 27% pay cut and the employee having a 3000/month salary and them working a decade in most cases yes

„So John… Listen. We‘re not enough revenue to pay you your regular salary. Either you cut off your d*ck, or we‘ll have to cut you off“

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I like that cutting his Pay as man is no option whatsoever

Now you're getting it!

Reducing the pay and benefits of your best computer programmer/IT person is not a good move, anon.

Nah, the real best IT person is working in the basement and hasn’t come out since 2003

/s

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago

That person is at home working on personal projects and occasionally checks on the automated systems they set up in the basement 20 years ago

Who's saying it's their best programmer/IT person? It could very well be their head of HR or legal counsel.

[–] duckythescientist 15 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It's an in joke and a genuine trend that there's a large overlap between programmers/IT and trans women.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea 3 points 4 months ago

Ah, ok, I wasn't aware.

I was trying to make a joke that they were such a chad that they'd do this to their legal/HR team.

Be sure to mansplain things to her, too. Oh, "mansplaining" is when you assume they are ignorant about a topic and start explaining it as if they are clueless.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Thanks for pointing that out in case OP's employee is in the comments.

Don't forget to pass her up for promotion.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

And talk over her in meetings, and then suggest her idea as if it was yours.
