Why is that downvoted? Genuine question. It feels just as relevant as the other comments. Sure it's a specific case of someone having a newborn, but that's hardly uncommon and could apply to a lot of people here (if not now maybe

Keep an open mind. I don't know you, nor your coworkers, but you may have done something that feels "normal" to you but is actually inappropriate without even realizing. That's why it is important to raise awareness on m

It's up to you. That doesn't feel absolutely absurd to me. If you work with them, you're going to spend much more than 8 hours working... 8 hours is very small to judge people, but it will give them an idea of how clean and c
