> requires at least $300 and 3 days in the shop, right?
to be fair if it costs only 300$ it was very likely something simple, 300$ may cover as little as 1 hour of tech time plus parts in most states.
Try watching a few videos of Rainman Ray's Repairs in youtube and you may learn how to fix a lot of simple stuff in most cars.

Rodent damage isn’t covered under warranty. Use that insurance instead, fancy pants.

Rats will build nests in your engine.....be aware they will chew wires due to their soy based wire coatings, so if odd problems start happening use that warranty fancy pants. Also congrats on evolving.

Don't email HR, email him, or better yet, call him. He seemed to take it in stride, but even so the gesture will go a long way.
​
If you knew he was gay but didn't know his name (suggesting you two didn't have some intimate relationship where he would disclose that to you), then you probably didn't out him.

Agreed. The AD & EPs are easily pulling in $5000+ per week to sit in a control room & scrutinize your work in real time. You make $ to avoid mistakes; they make $$$ to make sure you avoid mistakes.

Keep an eye on this. The bleeding might be a sign of ulcerative colitis, which can occur in just the lower part of the colon.

Plus if they are huge fans they would know the market price of her items. So if they do sell out your risk is next to nothing. Worse worse case scenario is break even.

I agree with the others here. Talk to your colleague.
You say alcohol isn't an excuse, but you wouldn't have said it if you weren't drunk. And you weren't the only one drunk there.
The fact you knew he was gay makes me wonder if it wasn't a secret, that at least some of your colleagues already knew. How did you find out?
And he laughed it off. Is he the kind of guy to laugh things off like this? If so, he's probably okay with it. Some people are just easygoing and wouldn't give this another thought.
Talk to your colleague. If you self-report to HR, almost guaranteed they're going to start an investigation that will likely end up in some form of disciplinary action.

C'mon... You're 14... You've learned not be a dick. It's a good thing you are aware of your behavior now. But that's what you do in your teens. You fuck up and then realize you fucked up.
Now comes the part where you move on, lesson learned and remind it! And from now on, do keep your hands to yourself!

Wanting to clean your dick while masturbating is very efficient, two birds with one stone. You’ll go far in life

Control your emotions, don't let them control you. Break life down into moments, every moment you make choices, and every choice you make tells you who you are. Most of the choices we make are the ones we see others make in similar situations or whenever they feel a similar emotions. Ask yourself what kind of person do you want to be, and how would this person act?

I work in event production and it’s happened so many times that the session was supposed to be recorded from the desk and the operator screwed up and never recorded it. And only because the camera guys pressed record that we were able to go back and patch together the footage from them.
This stuff happens dude. Especially in live events. They should have had a backup hyperdeck recorder if it was so important.

Counterpoint: I have an instinctive distrust of anybody who isn't good friends with at least one of their exes.
Are you going to tell me that you liked this person enough to date them but that in every single instance whatever caused you to stop being romantic also caused you to never want to talk to them again? Sounds like a red flag to me, dawg.
Dude's mom is entirely in the wrong here, mind you. In that situation I have been known to deliver a pointed "Mom, we are done, we are FRIENDS".

Sound advice here, and 100% legit they can make it work with his VO over alternate footage. This will be why you never forget to check you’re recording in the future.

Real question: what’s the difference between expecting someone to put the whole thing in their mouth and putting your own fingers in your mouth after touching it? Is it just a mental block because we wash our hands after using the bathroom?

I wouldn’t reach out to HR, I’d reach out to him. Explain what you’ve explained here and go from there. There’s no way to tell how he will react but the important thing is that you try and work this out with him directly. HR doesn’t need to get involved unless he wants them too
