Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

My workplace can be a bit juvenile like this, but we all understand the key rule. No means fucking no. Sometimes the shenanigans start and someone says "Not today, I'm not in the fuckin mood" and its respected. Some people are shenanigans free zones, you leave those people the fuck alone.
But like you said, you threw a bottle of water at someones face... this shit always gets out of hand, it ALWAYS escalates. You have to remove yourself from the inappropriate behavior chain 100% and make it clear to people that want to persist that you are over it and it needs to stop, if they do it again straight up tell them thats the last time or you go to management and start naming names and demanding they do something.
Sometimes a workplace that is "inappropriate" is fun, not having to be some rigid corporate drone who never speaks unless its in some sanitised language. Sometimes its not.
