In this episode of AITA@Work, we’re diving into workplace relationships, office crushes, secret affairs, HR nightmares, and the chaos that happens when personal boundaries collide with professional environments.

From coworkers exposing affairs at company retreats to bosses dating employees, obsessive workplace crushes, inappropriate office behavior, and relationships that completely blur professional lines, these stories explore what happens when romance at work goes very, very wrong.

We also get into the bigger questions: Should coworkers date at all? When does flirting become harassment? Is exposing someone’s affair ever justified? And how much drama should a workplace tolerate before HR steps in?

Some of these stories are awkward. Some are messy. And a few feel like they should’ve ended in a lawsuit.

Let’s get into it.

In this episode of AITA@Work, I have a special guest...my husband Rob Levesque! He is professional system design and electrical engineer with two Master's degrees in Business and Data Analytics. His background is perfect for today's theme because we’re talking about the chaos that happens when technology, ambition, and workplace expectations collide.

From AI drama and automation secrets to toxic bosses, impossible deadlines, tech incompetence, and career sabotage, these stories explore what happens when people try to “work smarter” and whether that crosses an ethical line.

We also dive into some bigger questions: Is using AI cheating? Is automation innovation… or stealing from your employer? And how much responsibility should companies have to adapt when technology changes faster than people do?

Some of these stories are hilarious. Some are stressful. And a few might make you rethink how much work people are really doing around you.

Let’s get into it.

In this episode of AITA@Work, we’re diving into one of the most frustrating workplace dynamics: when someone else takes credit for your work.

From coworkers quietly stealing ideas to full-on career sabotage, these stories explore what happens when recognition, promotions, and opportunities are built on someone else’s effort. We unpack the emotional toll of being overlooked, the risks of speaking up, and the moments where silence costs more than confrontation.

We also get into the bigger questions: When should you call someone out? When is it smarter to stay quiet? And how do you protect your work in environments where credit isn’t always given fairly?

If you’ve ever felt invisible, undervalued, or completely blindsided at work—this episode is going to hit close to home.

Let’s get into it.

In this episode of AITA@Work, we’re unpacking the tension between love, money, and expectations, because when it comes to relationships, what does “partnership” actually mean?

We’re diving into stories where financial imbalance, ambition, and lifestyle expectations start to crack the foundation of relationships. From partners questioning whether they’re being loved, or financially relied on, to couples struggling with mismatched work ethics, career goals, and definitions of contribution, this episode explores what happens when one person feels like they’re carrying more than their share.

We also get into the emotional side of it all: the fear of being used, the guilt of wanting more, and the resentment that builds when expectations aren’t aligned. Is it fair to expect your partner to match your drive? When does support turn into dependency? And how do you balance providing with protecting your own happiness?

Some of these stories will make you question your own standards, others might hit a little too close to home, but all of them ask the same core question: Are you building a life together… or just supporting someone else’s?

Let’s get into it.

In this episode of AITA@Work, we’re diving into the messy, uncomfortable, and sometimes downright brutal dynamics of workplace relationships, where professionalism meets pettiness, and not everyone comes out looking great.

We unpack stories of power trips disguised as “performance feedback,” office gossip that spirals into reputational damage, and the fine line between accountability and cruelty. From a senior employee calling out a struggling coworker (and maybe going too far), to a well-meaning confession that completely isolates a new hire, to HR complaints rooted in old high school dynamics, this episode explores what happens when communication breaks down and assumptions take over.

We also get into bigger ethical questions: When does honesty become harmful? Is it ever okay to repeat workplace gossip? And what responsibility do we actually have to protect, or report, our coworkers?

Some stories will have you cringing, some will make you angry, and a few might hit a little too close to home.

Because at work, it’s not always about who’s right… it’s about how you handle it.

Let’s get into it!

In this episode of AITA@Work, we’re getting into one of the most uncomfortable workplace-adjacent topics: money, family, and who feels entitled to your paycheck.

From being accidentally overpaid and keeping quiet, to partners demanding full access to income, to parents expecting financial support (or control), these stories dive into the messy reality of finances when boundaries aren’t clear.

We unpack situations where helping becomes expected, where generosity turns into pressure, and where people are forced to decide: how much of what I earn is actually mine?

Because money isn’t just about numbers...it’s about power, responsibility, and sometimes… control.

When it comes to your paycheck, where do you draw the line?

In this episode of AITA@Work, we’re diving into reddit stories about getting fired, including all the messy, unexpected, and sometimes unfair ways people end up losing their jobs.

We also get into the gray areas: standing up for yourself vs going too far, when doing the “right thing” still has consequences, and how sometimes getting fired isn’t about performance at all… it’s about timing, power, or pure chaos.

Because let’s be honest...getting fired isn’t always as simple as right vs wrong.

Sometimes it’s one decision, one moment, or one bad day… and everything changes.

In this episode of AITA@Work, we’re diving into one of the most polarizing workplace dynamics: Boomers vs everyone else.

From outdated expectations and generational stereotypes to communication breakdowns and power dynamics, we unpack real stories where “OK Boomer” energy shows up in full force. Whether it’s bosses making snide comments, parents giving questionable career advice, or clients stuck in the past, these situations highlight just how different workplace perspectives can be across generations.

But is it really a “boomer problem”… or just a clash of values, experience, and expectations?

We break it all down, challenge assumptions on both sides, and ask the real question: When it comes to the modern workplace… who’s actually in the wrong?

In this episode of AITA@Work, Bailey is joined by Gen Z guest co-host Halle Coulson to tackle one of the internet’s favorite debates: Is Gen Z actually bad at work… or just misunderstood?

Halle blind reacts to real workplace stories about Gen Z employees, from communication clashes and “quiet quitting” accusations to questions about professionalism, boundaries, and expectations at work.

As the stories unfold, Halle shares her honest Gen Z perspective while Bailey brings the millennial boss lens to the conversation. Together they unpack whether the criticism Gen Z gets in the workplace is fair… or if older generations might be missing something.

Expect real talk, a few laughs, and some surprising moments where both sides might actually agree.

Are the complaints about Gen Z coworkers justified?...or are workplaces just changing?

Let’s find out.
