re: Workplace: Should I take the L?

On a personal level, never loan out money without the expectation that you'll never see it again.
Just take the L and let that be the last time you loan him money.

Bang his baby mama.

$20 isn't even worth typing all that out.

You’ve never seen Bronx Tale or else you would know what to do.

Take the L, mention that he should have planned better, use his money better, but then talk to him less about his personal life. That way none of those stories will weigh on you. Also mention you have decided not to lend money to friends nor family.
Let him talk less and work more.

It only cost you $20 to now have an excuse to never lend or give him anything again.
Thats an L disguised as a long term W.

Lol she is more messed up than him from what he says.... no job, section 8,welfare, DHS involved... She real named the son "Mystic" for God's sake.

yeah, don't worry about the $20, but you now have clearance to passively aggressively frick with him daily about the $20 and the failure to bring chicken dip to the party.

sucks this happened with a colleague
still, I would 100% confront him and scare the shite out of him so he knows he fricked up and pays it back swiftly with interest and apologizes or else
it's not about the amount. it's the principle of the matter

Let it go. Unfortunately many parts of that story are very common. I don’t understand how 50% of the population functions. It is a miracle society as a whole isn’t in a death spiral.

Treat him like shite and move on
Posted on 7/8/26 at 12:48 pm to Indiangensing
I can't believe this is even a serious question. 20 bucks? You are presumably a grown arse adult dealing with someone much younger that apparently has a shitfest of a life anyway. And not only that you didn't even "loan" him the money, you gave it to him with the full expectation that it was gone from your pocket permanently.
Asking for it back because you didn't get a shitty tailgate dip is just mega strange.

Seems like the consensus is to take L... which is how I was leaning, we will see how long this guy lasts but he has made a year and usually people they are gonna fire are fired before that...
Posted on 7/8/26 at 12:49 pm to Indiangensing
Take the L
You didn't expect to be paid back but did expect to get the buffalo dip and then he pigged out on everything else.
I hope everyone in the warehouse learned a lot about bro's character...unfortunately at the expense of your Jackson.

Make him pay you back, $1.00 a week.

$20 lessons are cheap in the long run.
I knew this was coming based on his backstory. Poor bastard is grinding out a life as best he can.
I bet he blew up the bathroom later too.

Depending on how much older you are, you could take an opportunity to sit him down and give him $20 worth of life lessons about keeping your word. Tell him having integrity is free. You might get some buffalo dip down the road if you are sincere.

You knew he was wildly irresponsible and you gave him money, and told him it wasn’t a loan.
Posted on 7/8/26 at 12:51 pm to Indiangensing
Unless you are a bank why are you handing out loans?
You aint ever going to get that shite back

“See son, this is why you finish college. You don’t have to work with shitbags who would steal $20 or talk to you about child support.”

I'd take the L. It's $20. Don't let him being a prick make you change being kind to folks.
