    Pretty pissed because I work with my girlfriend and our boss has basically forbidden us to speak to each other at work (She’s a cook, I’m a waitress). He was such a douche about it. We don’t talk anymore than anyone else does at work. We never neglect our job duties to sit and have meaningful romantic conversations. I can’t help but feel like we’re being singled out because of our relationship. He threatened that if we didn’t stay away from each other, one of us would have to be fired. Pretty sure I’m the one on the chopping block here. So I’m going ahead and looking for a new job. I don’t need to be treated like shit and threatened for speaking to my girlfriend when she’s my fucking coworker… I need to vent about this somewhere and get some kind of advice or something… My girlfriend hasn’t come home from work yet and I haven’t gotten to talk to her about what douchebag deluxe said to us today (yeah, this just happened today). I am so furious because I honestly feel that we’re being singled out… there are friends who work there who spend a lot more time talking and screwing around than we do. We go out of our way to NOT talk to each other and be all couple-ish when we’re at work. This isn’t the first place we’ve worked at together, but this is the first time we’ve been treated this way and I don’t know how to handle it. I’m just so infuriated and feel completely helpless.

    • Yeah, that is utterly ridiculous. I would totally be looking for a new job too, if I were you. Your boss is a douche and I hope you manage to find a new job with twice the money and half the bullshit!

    • I quit that shit and got a new job, a way cooler job with better pay and hours. So my ex-boss can stick that in his juicebox and suck it.
