Comments on: Uptight Coworkers? Spiking Their Drinks with LSD is Not the Way to Solve this Problem. https://www.evilhrlady.org/2019/03/uptight-coworkers-spiking-their-drinks-with-lsd-is-not-the-way-to-solve-this-problem.html Everything to make HR better Sat, 20 Apr 2019 22:03:34 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Marie https://www.evilhrlady.org/2019/03/uptight-coworkers-spiking-their-drinks-with-lsd-is-not-the-way-to-solve-this-problem.html#comment-213801 Sat, 20 Apr 2019 22:03:34 +0000 https://www.evilhrlady.org/?p=5164#comment-213801 Incidentally, this reminds me of the internet’s almost complete support of those who would get revenge on lunch thieves at work by slipping something in a ‘bait’ lunch. I get stealing from the communal fridge is a shitty thing to do but it’s astonishing to me to see how many people think putting laxatives into a ghost-pepper laced sandwich is not only legal but justifiable in context.

To put ANY non-food substance in with the intent to cause harm (no matter how small) is illegal. Agreed, not funny.

He’s formed an opinion about his co workers and that’s fine. I would love to hear what they think of HIM! Irresponsible and dangerous.Ridiculous

I share Rob’s objection that this kind of bad behavior is not unique to a specific generation – or age group. We’ve certainly heard/read enough stories about adults spiking people drinks over the years (Bill Cosby comes to mind) to know that.

So? You don’t improve people’s ANYTHING by slipping drugs (legal or not) into their food ir drink. ESPECIALLY into alcohol, as that adds a whole layer of problems.

I thought the “special group” she was referring to was 19-year-olds. Boomer, Gen X or Millennial, all 19-year-olds’ brain development is about the same regardless of what generation designation they fall under.

He was likely talking about spiritual energy, i.e. bringing a good vs. bad attitude to their daily lives.

Just want to point out that boomers dosed a lot more people in the 60s than Millenials have this century.

I’m not in any way attempting to soften what this kid did, but he didn’t do it because he’s 19 and part of an entitled generation… he did it because he’s a bad individual.

But yeah, slipping any substance – controlled or not – in someone’s food or drink is a pretty malicious act.

(and speaking as an older Gen-X’er, who remembers being told her generation was lazy/apathetic/would bring civilization to its knees, and who works with lots of amazing younger folks – can we stop generalizing and crapping on people by age group? It’s inaccurate and unhelpful)
