Thread for things you regret

I don’t like the pink ones because most red dye has a funny aftertaste. I like the white ones because I don’t need the food coloring.

There actually is some research on negative effects of a few fake red dyes…

ETA.

Current options:
Ice cream
Vodka
Cinnamon tortilla chips (would have to make)

Ice cream in the vodka, like a boozy milkshake. Would be a lot better if you had rootbeer too.

Wut?

:exams;

I would regret that.

I forgot about the 2 packages of tzatziki I bought. They expire 11/21.

Should’ve worn a mask in the store. Hopefully the cashier only had a smokers cough.

I regret that you didn’t use the word “rue” instead of “regret.”

I regret initiating a 360* review process for our team. Got some HARSH feedback about my blind spots.

“Would we consider loyalty a weakness? If not, im also really honest.”

I think these are really useful in theory, but in practice it encourages things like what you mention. Whether that’s fair or not is a different discussion, but my experience has been that the people who most need to hear harsh feedback about their performance as a manager [people who are poor managers, people not respected by others around the company] also are the most likely to ignore it when it doesn’t reinforce what they want to believe about themselves and are the most likely to give harsh feedback to their direct reports.
