No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Most of my co-workers don't like me. My boss doesn't even like me. But I'm known for the quality and consistency of my work. So I pop my earbuds in and go about my day, and they leave me to it for the most part. Every now and then my boss asks me to take on a special project that requires more group interaction than I'm comfortable with, and I just have to grit my teeth and get through it.
I've become more numb to being disliked over the years. I try to accept and respect that they are who they are and that's ok as long as they also respect my social boundaries. And even when they don't, I have learned to kindly, but firmly, assert those boundaries.
I wouldn't bring it up in an interview. Knowing how extrovert-centric the job market can be, there's no need to shoot yourself in the foot by making it an issue if it doesn't come up. Once you have the job, if they decide to fire you because you're not enough of a social butterfly, despite your good work ethic, then that's their loss.
if your boss makes clear he doesn't like you, why are you still working there and why don't you have plans to quit?
I mean I don't understand why this is not a reason good enough to start looking for employment elsewhere. Don't you find it tiring? don't your coworkers and boss wear you down?
If my boss makes clear he doesn't like me it's only a matter of time before he starts treating me differently, giving me the worse assignments, refusing to acknowledge me...
This would affect me to the point of starting to hate that person.
There are a few reasons. Most people just let me go about my work with very little interference, my boss included. The pay is good and I have a good amount of autonomy that I don't know I would find in a different job. The work itself can be tedious at times, but I still kind of enjoy it and I've done it long enough to be really good at it. And, like I said, I'm now numb to the people who don't like me. Their dislike doesn't bother me enough to give up the things I like about the job.
I'm always open to other job options, but I'm not actively searching at the moment and nothing better has come along so far.
