In this episode, workplace politics get personal—and painfully real—as three Redditors learn what happens when professional boundaries blur and basic human decency is left off the meeting agenda. First, a new mom is forced to sit through a two-hour meeting while in active labor because her boss decided his agenda was more urgent than childbirth. Then, an employee uses their lunch guest privileges to break bread with a homeless man who’s become a friend—only to be accused of endangering children and violating workplace norms after celebrating his first steps toward housing and stability. Finally, when a serial lunch thief gets caught red-handed eating someone else’s microwaved meal, the confrontation turns into a viral office drama with high heels, cold leftovers, and no regrets.
