Me, a trans woman who has received a phalloplasty to gain a second fully functional penis and now refers to myself exclusively as Ms. Double-Barrelled Johnson: Yes
BTW for anyone too lazy to do the math a wage of $125 a day works out to about $15/hour for an 8-hour workday so….. someone in 1923 definitely had a vision of the future
I’m an engineering intern at a manufacturing plant and my mentor is the lead engineer of my team. One day he didn’t show up to work because he needed to be home for a contractor. One of my teammates asked me why he was out, assuming I had the inside scoop because I’m his intern. I decided to pull a classic “middle schooler messing with the substitutes teacher” and told my teammate “he rode his bike into a pool”. This is a lie we legit told teachers in middle school so I thought it was hilarious. Then I went to get ice cream with some of the other interns.
After an hour or two, I returned to my office. The intern in the office across from mine notified me that one of the engineers that I hadn’t worked with other much had come by my office looking for me. I immediately went over to his office, thinking he had an important project for me. When I got to his office I asked if he had been looking for me and he asked “is it true your mentor rode his motorcycle into a pool?”. It turns out my mentor has a motorcycle so my teammate had actually believed me and told the whole team. Another team member asked me “was it an above ground or a below ground pool?” and another said “wow he really is the type of person who would ride his bike into a pool.” Then someone from a different engineering team came over from another aisle to ask about my mentor riding his bike into a pool. Clearly this had spread faster than I thought was possible. I was cornered. After my teammate (same one who asked if it was an above or below ground pool) threatened to text my mentor to ask if he was ok and I had to admit it was made up and never even intended it to be believed. The whole team was extremely disappointed.
At this time The engineer from the other team returned with a sketch of the perceived event and pinned it to my mentor’s door
We decided we needed to make a get well card to pin to his door. Our version of the story was that he got slightly hurt but mostly just got extremely wet when he rode into the pool. When he returned the next day, this was also pinned to his door:
Engineers and managers from completely different teams signed it.
The next day. My mentor called me into his office, showed me the card, and asked me “what the hell is this?” I told him I had started some office drama while he was gone.
