I put 2gâs on the counter and said âplease convert this into coffee beans.â

I posted this like a year ago:
So I was at a bar with a friend of mine and we got to talking with this girl who was there on her twenty first birthday. We congratulate her and buy her a round.
Shortly thereafter we get into a conversation about the peopling PEOPLING of South America. She then, incredibly arrogantly, explains that there were people there and that I’m white washing history. I explain, again, that I’m not, and that there were no human beings there until they migrated there at a time we’re still trying to figure out.
No she insists, these invaders wiped out the indigenous populations.
No, I say, that happened thousands of years later.
She accuses me of mansplaining. I’m like, at a loss, and am like “ok well I’m sorry.” She yells at my friend (female) and is like “how are you friends with him?” And is like “God what do you even do, like, sell f*****g stocks?”
I’m a geographer.

A co-worker treats everyone he works with as a first year apprentice and talks to people like they are stupid despite having the lowest level of education i.e. he just has his basic trade certificates while those around him have all gone on to higher education. He also has the least amount of skills and experience as in he is an average welder/fabricator whereas those around him can also do fitting work and/or machining.
I had just started with the company so I got the job of working with him because no one else would and he tried to explain to me how to use a bandsaw like I was a child, I told him to f**k off and that I would do the job myself. So far he hasnât spoke to me since which is a bonus in itself.
