So a new girl started at my work today, shes obviously from some Asain descent and shes very beautiful. Like super beautiful!
I was talking to her, telling her what my roles are and what my strengths are and i mentioned that shes really pretty and she thanked me for saying that and everything and then we just carried on talking.
I then got pulled out of the room by the Client Services Manager and she took me to the meeting room and said "What you said is really offensive, i think you should apologise" and i was so confused like "Oh my god, i'm so sorry, what did i say? I honestly didn't realise i said anything offensive, i didn't mean to if i did" and she said that because i called her "pretty" it was offensive.
I asked her to explain what was offensive about it and she just kept saying "You just can't say that, it's really degrading"
I'm so confused. How is telling someone they are beautiful offensive? The only way i could see it as offensive is if shes one of those tumblr people that thinks i'm trying to come on to her.... When i'm clearly not since everyone here knows i'm gay?!

I fucking hate that it's so common to be considered bad or unusual for complimenting somebody.
We're living in the fucking !TRIGGER FUTURE!.

I wouldn't dwell on it too much. I mean, there's always going to be the occasional oddball you just don't understand, but I don't think it's too big a deal. Unless it blows up into something later, just try to comply and forget about it.
She sounds like a bitch

Does she know you're gay though, her attitude will probably change and she'll be all flattered instead.

The Client Services Manager knows i'm gay, like i said at the end of my paragraph, everybody (other than the 2 new people) know i'm gay. I've been here a year and shes asked about my partner, Craig, several times so she defo knows!
The new girl probably doesn't but she didn't take any offense to it i don't think
Can Americans in here tell me how many 5 Guys you have over there? I just tried some the other day and it was a fucking religious experience. They even had all your weird Coke flavours in the drinks machine!!!

Calling a new coworker pretty or beautiful seems really unprofessional. I don't think I'd call it offensive but I don't think a work setting is the place for comments like that.

We have three in South Dakota that came here a couple years ago. Its truly amazing, but you always feel like shit because of all the fries. Ours are also in shitty locations. One is on an intersection that it pain to get to because one-ways and the other is all the way across town from where I live and is on one of the busiest streets in the state. And the other is in Rapid City 250-ish miles away. :v:

I didn't have any chips with mine but the burger itself was fucking amazing; it combines the best parts of like Football Stadium food and a gourmet burger from a restaurant. They had fucking peanuts you could eat while waiting for your food!
Of course the Gay Chat is talking about a restaurant called 5 Guys

I feel like an idiot when I walk up and I just go "I want a cheeseburger with uhhhh...." trying to figure out what I want on it.

I didn't know that was the deal with 5 guys so I just went "Can I have a cheese burger please" and the lady just kinda stared at me for a bit.
The best part about 5 Guys is the free peanuts. So delicious.
Chipotle is the worst fucking food place ever
like seriously, your ordering system shouldn't be so ~exclusive~ and ~unique~ that you literally need to bring someone who's familiar with it along with you if you've never been just so that you can get a goddamn fucking burrito
I mean fuck, there's a burrito truck like five minutes from my house staffed by really friendly Mexican dudes who barely speak a word of english, and you can just sorta vaguely describe the burrito you want and they'll read your mind with godlike precision and it only costs like five bucks
fuck Chipotle

We have Qdoba here and they're pretty good. Chipotle is one of those places that I have a hard time believing exists yet everyone talks about it because I've never seen one IRL.
[QUOTE=Purple Gecko;50874052]how does chipotle work?[/QUOTE]
I can't wrap my head around it. It's almost like a Subway, but it's nowhere near as clear or simple, nothing is explained, and there's lots and lots of loopholes and workarounds in the ordering system.

Chipotle isn't worth it. Stick with your friendly Mexican van man.

Make sure to dunk your hand over the sneeze guard for bonus points.
When the food is prepped correctly, I think it's a pretty darn good eat. But sometimes the rice is like slop and it just destroys the entire meal
and your statement about the loopholes is absolutely right. Never get the tacos. Load up a bowl full of all the rice you want -- in fact, load up on most everything. Its all pretty much free of charge unless you get more meat or guac, then ask for tortilla on the side. writing this on an empty stomach has me spinning
