Why is this grounds for resignation? He clearly said he sent it by accident.

Could happen to anyone.

[–] yarr@feddit.nl 11 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Couldn't happen to anyone that doesn't masturbate on their lunch break.

[–] Pudutr0n@feddit.cl 7 points 6 days ago

I know! Could literally happen to anyone!

[–] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Show me someone who hasn't had a sneaky wank on their lunch break and I'll show you a liar.

[–] Malfeasant@lemm.ee 3 points 6 days ago

I can honestly say I have never masturbated on a lunch break.

[–] WuceBrillis@lemm.ee 37 points 1 week ago (6 children)

Are you also jacking it at work in your lunch break?

[–] Pudutr0n@feddit.cl 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

What an inappropiate and sexually charged question.

At least this guy says he made a mistake. What's your excuse?

[–] WuceBrillis@lemm.ee 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It's really not, no.

He said it could happen to anyone, but it could only happen to people who film themselves jacking it at work.

Him using the word "anyone" implies that jacking it at work is so normal to him, that the only mistake he sees here is that he sent it to the wrong person.

I used the word "anyone". That was me. The intention of my message was humorous, and I'm sorry if you didn't find it or my later question funny.

It’s like pooping, why would I wait until I got home if I could be paid to do it at the office?

[–] Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Do you record yourself pooping?

Who are you texting your poop videos that might mistakenly go to a co-worker?

[–] pandapoo@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I mean, who am I NOT sending those videos to?

[–] msage@programming.dev 8 points 1 week ago

Me, for instance

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's called friendly competition, okay? We also give each other pointers.

We have a squad of fecal cheerleaders at my work.

[–] neatobuilds 7 points 1 week ago

Well they made the company wide email address for something!

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

If only these tps reports could get filed by rubbing them as well

The attorneys desk.

Sure he SAID it was an accident, AFTER she reacted with outrage. Then he tried to shut her up. That's the behavior of someone who's gotten away with this behavior before, probably with women who were in a more vulnerable position. She wound up filing for sexual harassment, so this may be the tip of the iceberg for his behavior. It's what she had evidence for.

Eh, people regularly get fired for way less than whacking it in the bathroom and accidentally sending the video to coworkers. Besides I'm of the opinion that the mayor should be held to higher standards not lower ones.

[–] Pudutr0n@feddit.cl 1 points 6 days ago

You want him to be high on the job too? Now THAT would be unprofessional.

[–] neatobuilds 6 points 1 week ago

Wait I thought the point was to have special privilege, dang I'm going to throw in the towel on my campaign

[–] parody@lemmings.world 5 points 1 week ago

That kind of stuff gets sucked into my phone all the time
