Welcome to Confessions's Private Community

I was having private insta account but few weeks back I thought to making it public and I used to post very simple videos like makeup/skincare, clothing and accessories haul because I am obsessed with it.

I would have made about 15 - 20 post but my grwm for office video kinda got viral and had 100 k views and on a simple video like that perverts were messaging me.

Usually I ignore the message but then few guys also called me r*ndi and cuss words don't know why. I still ignored.

But 2-3 guys sent me dick pics and I was traumatised and I made my account private again. I was frustrated to reply and I also thought to reply with something disgusting so I took a pad pour some Alta(kind of henna for colouring hands and feet) and clicked pictures to make it look like it's a used pad and sent back to those perverts.

One of the guy was super pissed after seeing it as I told I did some black magic and you have seen it so I have cursed you( I was shitting🤣) and then he started telling me didi and apologizing while other cursed me.

I know it was a heinous act and now I am ashamed but at that moment I got sense of relief.

Just wanted to confess.

Ever since 9th grade, I watch a football compilation video every time I am about to step on the field to play football. ⚽️🏟️

While I’m tying my shoe laces, the music thumping in my ears with cinematic visuals of the most insane football skills ever. 🤯

All throughout my college days as well, before every football game. I used to carry my headphones with me and watch a video. Emulate some flairs and new skills on the field, score long range goals and Shush the crowd. 🤫

Even today, when that time has long gone by, anytime there is a friendly Sunday match between friends. I’m sure to blast some music and just watch football before playing.

And yes, even today I get the same goosebumps as I step on the field and touch the ball. It’s the best feeling ever.

What about you? What’s the one unexpected habit that has stuck with you ever since you were a kid? 🤔💭

The funniest shit happened at the office today. I was at my desk after lunch, vibing to "Like That(Remix)" by Kanye West and writing some test cases for this CI/CD I am setting up for a new feature. 

My friend calls me up and says that there is a BlinkIt parcel that I need to collect from the front desk. I'm like Bro I am busy right now. He says it's an emergency. I am like Okay.

So, I collect it from front desk and now he asks me to bring it to the WC. I am like bro wut?? 
He's like he needs it ASAP. So I oblige lmao.

I come to know that he has ordered Track Pants from BlinkIt because he shit his pants. Apparently, he had some street food yesterday and his stomache got upset. He had an in-person meeting and he wanted to leave for washroom because of his diarrhea. But he couldn't because he was presenting. Unfortunately, by the time that meeting got over he ran towards the WC. Yet, he was too late and ended up ruining his pants. 

This might be the funniest shit I have experienced. My private group on Teams is blowing up lmao.

Someone just 💩 in their pants in the office...

Awkward question I know, but my recent monthly visitor made me realise - even after decades of having it I still haven't figured it out.

Girls, how did you react to your first ever period?

Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

What's a company secret you can share now that you don't work there?

It happened about 4yrs ago when I was looking for a job change for the first time. I hadn't practiced DSA in a long time and I was giving interviews without enough preparation.

So during a virtual interview the interviewer gave me a DSA question which I had a look at a couple of days ago but still didn't know how to solve properly. 

I thought it would be easier if I can just search through my browser history to find that solution I saw. 

I might have searched my history for about 15-20 secs and suddenly realised that I was fking sharing my screen on call 🤦

{Trust me! I'm smart, this was a brain fart moment}

I immediately closed the history tab and pretended like this never happened, and tried to solve the question on my own.

The fact that both of us didn't say anything makes it even more embarrassing for me. There was an eerie silence which makes me think he saw what I was trying to do.

During the whole call I was super embarrassed, but I gave my best and was able to solve half of the cases, but didn't get selected for the next round, obviously. 

till today I wonder whether he saw that I was trying to cheat or not ? and what he thinks of me?

I'm aware/realise that this is what happens when you try to cheat, so either don't cheat or be smart about it 🙂

do you have anything similar to share?

Embarrassing Cheating Story 🤫

What's the most embarrassing thing that has happened to you in office

Googlers,

You may have seen reports of protests at some of our offices yesterday. Unfortunately, a number of employees brought the event into our buildings in New York and Sunnyvale. They took over office spaces, defaced our property, and physically impeded the work of other Googlers. Their behavior was unacceptable, extremely disruptive, and made co-workers feel threatened. We placed employees involved under investigation and cut their access to our systems. Those who refused to leave were arrested by law enforcement and removed from our offices.

Following investigation, today we terminated the employment of twenty-eight employees found to be involved. We will continue to investigate and take action as needed.

Behavior like this has no place in our workplace and we will not tolerate it. It clearly violates multiple policies that all employees must adhere to — including our Code of Conduct and Policy on Harassment, Discrimination, Retaliation, Standards of Conduct, and Workplace Concerns.

We are a place of business and every Googler is expected to read our policies and apply them to how they conduct themselves and communicate in our workplace. The overwhelming majority of our employees do the right thing. If you’re one of the few who are tempted to think we’re going to overlook conduct that violates our policies, think again. The company takes this extremely seriously, and we will continue to apply our longstanding policies to take action against disruptive behavior — up to and including termination.

You should expect to hear more from leaders about standards of behavior and discourse in the workplace.

Chris

My heart is filled with nothing but disgust if these allegations are genuine. I hope this reaches its natural conclusion and justice prevails.

We've all had some embarassing moments that make us want to crawl into a hole. What's Your Most Embarrassing Moment That Still Keeps You Up at Night?

Name your "I Wish I Could Forget" moments

Last month, someone on Grapevine commented with a cryptic message, revealing my workplace.
Scary part, I have not mentioned it anywhere on the internet. No one knows except my immediate family.
And then, they deleted the comment.

But I was frantic and scared, overanalyzing all the conversations where I may have overshared.
Was actively building my personal brand on LinkedIn and Twitter, but that came to a complete stop.
I reached out to Grapevine support, who, apart from providing support, taught me a new Gen Z word: 'doxxing' (yeah, call me a boomer)

I did find the leak in my 'anonymous' plan - I was hiring writers and had spoken with three who reached out through Grapevine.

Now, can we get to the good part?
A month later, I have spoken to more than double that number. Not hiring now, but conceptualizing ideas.
I have a fitness buddy (who works out and I cheer), working on business ideas that started right here, and I'm looking forward to meeting more people (and probably grabbing some gigs).

I am finally enjoying being on Grapevine, not worried about hiding my identity with Biryani.

Image: This is what ChatGPT had to say about the incident, and I couldn't agree more.

P.S. I don't share my workplace because 1. It's still probation, and 2. I work with a small team, hence I can be easily identified.
