Dogg, you seriously took all the fun out of this topic with your tree hugging bullshit. Me being his manager has shit to do with this. Its a funny story unless you have no sense of humor. Be quiet now...

I'm sorry I broke your thread, maybe if you're extra nice I'll buy you a new one someday!

Thanks. Maybe when that day comes you'll buy yourself a sense of humor so you're not such an uptight homo.

tree hugging? trees have nothing to do with this shit.

needlessly being cruel to people isn't fun




sounds to me like it's a funny story until you reveal all the details cause it goes from a bunch of equal-playing field participant co-workers fucking around to a manager harassing his minority employee lmao

word of advice, don't diss some liberal sect on a board that's supposed to be heavily associated with California. I'm sure if you posted your story in some Texas/Kentucky based net forum your ass backwards hillbilly humor would go uncontested.

Nah, I only go to the Pride Festival in Long Beach. It's kind of a lower-key offshoot, but the weed's always primo.

i would like to think this was my larger point early on, regardless of the reasoning behind it cruelty is not cool. but i will say, I understand the situation more now that i know he was his manager/it was a company phone.

i would have broke his phone then sacked him

You're right cruelty is not cool. Taking someones phone to see what he's hiding, without him knowing, is just plain funny.

yes and in light of the you being his manager/it being a company phone it's easier for me to imagine it as Sanje from Weeds and yeah it's funny. That's all I was saying.

cause i'd rather have my manager prank me than fire me

Anyway, some of you guys are too uptight. I'm not opposed to anyone grabbing my phone to see whats on it. I wouldn't put anything on it that would embarrass me. We took his phone to see what he was so embarrased about. It just so happened to be that he had gay photos. People guessed that he may have had photos of naked females. People guessed that he was doing something with his ex (whom we've found out was a woman). So it wasn't because he was gay that we decided to take his phone, merely because of the fact that he was so secretive. Don't make this into a gay/straight issue, cuz its not. Like I said, nobody cares that hes gay, we just wanted to know why he was secretive over his phone. By the way, being his manager, I have the right to confiscate his COMPANY OWNED phone anytime I want to verify that he is abiding  by Company guidelines, which he is not. But I'm not making it into an issue.

Let a bunch of gay guys grab my phone and guess whats on it, I'm OK with it. I'll even tell you, I have pictures of my dogs and my girl. I'm not ashamed by any of that. So miss me with all that mindless bable you're spitting Tanj.

So yes, dude deserved it. If you want to keep things private, keep it at your house. The workplace is not the right setting to keep your private things.

+1, EXACTLY

Also: I am a 100% catholic, so i honestly can't stand gays...that'll never change, 40-50 years from now..might sound harsh, but i am just being straight up...

its not like it was a prank though lol...they just wanted to be nosy on some gossiping old lady shit. and what can be so vital and important that a manager has to see whats on another dudes phone? lol.

i'm not saying i approve cause I definitely would not have done that but i understand where SGV's coming from given that he's the dude's manager and that shit is a company phone and you shouldn't be secretive about a company phone. if it was his personal cell phone we may have an ACLU lawsuit on our hands.
