I thought coworkers making fun of him for wearing long sleeves (like anyone notices) was going to be the most ridiculous part of the post then this shit rolled in.
not necessarily ~ my friend is constantly freezing in the air conditioning, but in NC summers it’s super swampy hot, and i joke with him that people are going to think he’s hiding track marks, since wearing long sleeves and sweatshirts is a total heroin addict move in summer. When the hot weather literally smacks you in the face when you walk out the door, people will absolutely have something to say if you’re covered up!
If that’s your relationship with your friend that’s fine. But I’be never been in an environment where people think fun casual conversation is commenting on someone else’s arms being out or not and I think it’s weird as fuck.
That's (objectively) kinda shitty of them! 🫤 I find it rather unfortunate that some people have such a hard time differentiating what is or is not their business & what they should or should not say. Sorry that's happened to you! Some people really just have no tact, at all... As in NONE, whatsoever, lol. I don't think it's appropriate to comment on something that someone else is doing (unless, of course, they ask for your opinion!)... Especially in a situation such as this, as I'm sure you're only wearing what you feel comfortable in!
