So, when I was a kid, well, yute, right, and was doing all my yuteful indiscretions, well, I was also an admin on the work system. Like, a fruit picker, according to Didace. But, I did pick a lot of fruit. For example, I discovered that the CFO of the company was having an affair with one of the lawyers. And not just any affair - he requested from her (and received) sex in his office, during a time when every single other person at the company was at a presentation. I know this because as well as picking fruit, I had admin rights and could read everyone's emails.


And I'm not Lozen, so that information stayed with... well, it stayed pretty much unexposed until just now, 20 years later, and with no names,


When I was late 20s I began a secret relationship with an attractive woman at the same work place, who the CEO then took a shining to and started giving lifts to the station lol. He then gave up and started seeing one of the senior managers there, who he married (after divorcing his wife).

A year or two later and somehow word had got out about us and he confronted me furiously in a corridor, threatening to demote me. When I asked innocently "Why? I've worked really hard for you" he said "You know why!".

Nothing came of his threats, thankfully, possibly due to me knowing via a friendship I had with one of the directors that his own position was extremely shaky, and intimating to him that if he carried out his threat I might take a detour via the organisation's HQ where his national boss had offices. lol

Why not both? "Mutual" is in the name, after all.

Kickball. Lol. It was Poirot.

I think I might know who you are, lol. Your name isn't Nick Hill by any chance, is it?

Well, I know it isn't. But this story is ****ing identical to another one I know.


I had admin right for the whole company network except for HR who for privacy/confentiality reasons had demanded their own little network supported by an external company

All fine and dandy until it crashed and the external company didn't seem to exist. Over to us with the backup tape on which nothing was encrypted or password protected. I didn't look at anything but a colleague had no scruples about looking and sharing with everyone. Much amusment and mayhem followed.

Nope but male CEOs "giving lifts" to attractive females is pretty common I'd guess and if she's seeing someone already from work then it's pretty dangerous for that person.

It was quite funny because she used to tell me what he talked about in the car, and it was mainly...wait for it....

I always stuns me (I know, it shouldn't) what people put into work emails thinking they have some privacy.


I'm sad that I'm so old that for my anacdote emails weren't even a thing

When I started at my final work place within a few days I'd been sent a copy of a file sent around the devs by someone who had live access to a key finance system that had peoples salaries. So basically everyone knew what everyone else was earning and the range was wide, like x1.75, causing much disgruntlement especially as one or two of the top earners were quite useless but had been there donkey's years. LOL

"I retired young because I was earning a fortune" humble brag.

"I retired young because I was earning a fortune" humble brag.

The only sense in which chez is "retired" is how Borat uses that word.


I dont think my age at that anecdote says anything about retirement

Artists are so much more fun than STEM types.

Can confirm 👍


So, didace, you want the real Penthouse letter? I kept it PG, coz, well, you know.

The real letter is that the girl was a ****ing nymph, I'm not sure how else to describe it. Basically, everything I wanted, she not only enthusiastically did, she would write in this diary that she had about how much she enjoyed it. And I do mean, anything. I suspect that I may have ruined her for the men that undoubtedly followed. If I didn't, it wasn't for lack of trying,

this doesn't gel, you clearly did look and are either afraid to admit it anonymously now or you just looked by proxy

if you are another person find someone's diary and one reads it out loud to you, you are just as guilty as the reader


I’d certainly want to see what notes the company internal police department aka HR had on me.

Right?

Can we just blame Luckbox for all this? He seems like a bit of a prick.

No. I did not look.

I did notice when someone else told everybody. Nothing like your diary example.
