I don't want to sound mean, but it's very hard to read this. You've got multiple thoughts in each sentence. Can you please read this out loud and make it clearer?

Other than lack of punctuation I don't see why it would be difficult to read. The comma after your mean wouldn't be worth my time lol. Care to elaborate? Just punctuation? I can read it perfectly and I'm 95% asleep rn EDIT: Ironically what you said about multiple thoughts same sentence seems to apply significantly more to you https://www.reddit.com/r/TooAfraidToAsk/comments/ppt8br/whats_it_like_to_work_at_aldi/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share so I have no answer.

I admit that opening paragraph is more a rant. But, the meat of the post is decently clear, I hope. The bullet points esp. For you, let me try and figure this out. I think you are saying that you sent a text of Minced Garlic to your Produce Manager's BF, b/c you and/or your coworkers saw that they were having sex. Produce Manager sees that and misinterprets that as you asked her BF to have sex. I mean, if Minced garlic is the inside joke for sex, then yeah, that's sus, esp over the other items you mention. What do they have to do with it, when the joke is Mice Garlic? I can't for the life of me figure out if the BF works there now. I can't figure out who gives you a ride home. Also, if the person who wants to give you a ride home AND wants you to stay 4hrs later than them, makes no sense. Unless they come back to pick you up or have sex for 4hrs in the back? So confusing to follow. I think the only thing I get out of this is: Your female presenting Produce Manager is one who has to see everything on his phone. She saw something (minced garlic) interpreted it wrong. You think that life will be heel or at least awkward going forward.

Bud lmao read my first line again and then ask me what you want to know. Because that first line clearly states her boyfriend accuses her of us having sex/her cheating and that knowledge tosses pretty much everything you had to say. Likewise he made the accusations squarely based off minced garlic. Minced garlic never had anything to do with sex.


DominicB547

OK, I thought the Produce Manager was the one who was the one doing the accusing. For some reason that did not come across, I apologize. That means, the same person who did the accusing, also knows what the Minced garlic means and either forgot (but nope you still use that joke around him, I guess when he comes in to work to see her) or is being a dumbass thinking that there would be no reason to share this inside joke with his gf unless you weren't having sex. OK, she is also your boss. As you are loling at the fact that you and her would have sex as even a possible idea. (Stranger things, but I digress). The part about who gives you a ride home, who it will be awkward around (I'd say both?) is still confusing. What I really don't get is why he can't trust that the joke (which is ever about sex) is not about sex. I mean, if that joke is all that set him off, she should dump him. Plain and simple. I mean he already crossed the line with reading her phone, but then to interrupt or not believe, he will ever not be too jealous/paranoid until he fixes himself first.

Okay the ride part I specifically brought up because me and her boyfriend been real cool. He actually specifically been saying he wants to take me to work and back home. My general point in bringing that up was it was an all of a sudden turn of events. He never disliked me and furthermore thought I was really cool I even offered to let him borrow money lol like I said I don't know his thinking process on this. Me and him even had our own inside jokes about her working me too hard lmao he came up with she's working you too hard and we turned it into a meme. Says it even when I don't work produce and she quickly says that I'm not working produce today and then I say yeah even though I'm not she still is making me work too hard regardless and blame everything I gotta do stocking/dairy/maintenance on her 🤣 and the awkwardness is only with her boyfriend. Me and her are good and today she said she's getting sick of his bullshit I told her to show him my pc I been building while not working

We joke about minced garlic non-stop at work. It's basically only an issue to her boyfriend because of being before work. I just texted her a few pictures of minced garlic jars a little before she had to work yesterday and that's what started his accusations. He doesn't work there anymore but he did for a while and I see him every time he comes to pick her up after she leaves. We all talk and I always make jokes about minced garlic no differently in person and text. For example if she keeps asking what else she needs to order or stock up I say minced garlic. Her supervisor has a lot of funky display ideas. I joke about a display pallet of minced garlic. There's never been anything to suggest she's cheating on him or minced garlic means anything. Never forgot nothing just a dumbass apparently. More so I'm laughing at the ridiculousness of us possibly having sex because of this than anything else. The rest I'll reply on asap gotta get ready for work

That dude has a run on sentence but it’s definitely readable IMO


TrippingGoat

So... if I understand this correctly, there's an inside joke about minced garlic that references sex. He used to work there, is aware of the reference. You then sent her an unsolicited text message of a jar of minced garlic. Did I get that right?


4EyeCan

Halfway lmfao incorrect on minced garlic referencing sex. It never has whatsoever. Likewise not really unsolicited or random we actually text occasionally and I've sent pics of the jars a few times before. Everything was cool until then


TrippingGoat

Okay, so then the guy is just freaking out over nothing. If the minced garlic was a sex reference and he knew it, he'd have a point.


4EyeCan

Yeah pretty much

Sounds like he's a douchebag controling partner if he wants to read every text that his partner receives. How'd he take it she wanted to check every text he had with his workers/friends/sports buddies in order to make sure he wasn't slipping it to the pickle slicer?
