Do guys generally want advice? I never work in corporate since I have my own small business. With my girl friends, usually we just wanna vent and trash talk. Is that how it is with guys too? My exes rarely complain about work. At most they just said “work is work” and nothing more. But the guy I’m seeing now seems to be drowning in work and keeps complaining about it. He loves his job, but his boss keeps piling up work on him despite him saying he’s swamped and really can’t take on any more projects. He said it’s like he’s being punished for being good at his job. Idk what to say or do to make him feel better. He doesn’t seem to want to trash talk his boss like my girl friends do, and the best advice I could give was… uh quit and find other job; terrible advice really with the job market as it is now. Do I just hug him and say I’m sorry? submitted by /u/daysof_I
