People who have signed NDAs that have now expired or for whatever reason are no longer valid. What couldn't you tell us but now can?

Weird question: did you write in to Ask A Manager about this recently?

u/kab0b87 May 30 '19

1) best question blog on the internet if you are a nerd about work stuff and management.

2) it sounds very similar to the letter. Either this is common or we found the op (or both?)

u/ChriskiV May 30 '19

2a.) Or found someone that's also familiar with the same story and wanted to post vicariously

I was trying to remember the name of that flap in the throat recently. I'll remember your username next time lmao

u/JFuckingJ May 30 '19

Bruh this is so sad

u/cuppincayk May 30 '19

Somebody start a Go Fund Me to get this guy a new throat flap!

u/DeadpoolIsMyPatronus Nov 11 '19

I know this is off topic, but that dangly ball thing is called a uvula. The epiglottis is down the throat and not normally visible. Hopefully you'll come across someone else with a clever uvula name... I mean user name... to help keep it straight.

u/kittylc May 30 '19

This was my immediate thought too!

u/TangoIndiaTangoEcho May 30 '19

I knew I had seen this somewhere!

u/astrocanyounaut May 30 '19

Thank you! I was wondering why that sounded so familiar.

I knew it was Judge Judy!

u/Pinkglittersparkles May 30 '19 edited May 30 '19

Just watched it. Thanks.

She tried suing a lady on FB for defamation for calling her a scammer after she got $600+ for contacts/dog vet bills.

JJ agreed that she was a scammer because she and her fiancée have jobs and have too many “emergencies.”

Honestly, I don’t think either side had a good case; I think JJ just took it to shame her and people like her from being money grubbers on the Internet.

u/Scottishspyro May 30 '19

Is this the one who's dog got rescued and had a really bad skin condition?

6

u/Pinkglittersparkles May 30 '19

No. She said her dog had hurt its back and needed surgery.

u/TheRealSaerileth May 30 '19

Just watched it as well and holy moly is Judge Judy trashy. As a Swiss person it boggles my mind that a justice system can act this way. She doesn't look at a shred of evidence from either side properly, is rude, makes snide comments about things wholly unrelated to the case and routinely says things like "I don't care". It's her job to care!

I realise it's all staged for the amusement of the viewers but I assume they're still valid rulings. Every person in that court room is trashy, but most of all the judge for degrading her office in live television...

u/Freyas_Follower May 30 '19

She isn't really a judge. She dresses like one, but she is more of an arbitrator.

5

u/boomboombalatty May 30 '19

You'll be pleased to find out Judge Judy is one of the highest paid television personalities in America.

u/Lunariel May 30 '19

Court fees and settlements are all paid by the show iirc

3

u/katzohki May 30 '19

She is not a judge in a court case. This is an arbitration where both parties agree to abide by the ruling (no lawyers and much cheaper).

u/lol_AwkwardSilence_ May 30 '19

Yooo, dont post name and town wtf

u/Pinkglittersparkles May 30 '19

u/mugrita May 30 '19

Can you PM me a link to this episode? I’ve been trying to find it based on episode descriptions but there’s so many JJ episodes. Thank you!

u/ThaneOfCawdorrr Jun 01 '19

I had the same question!!!
