This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

To be fair, we had zero women colleagues, and he was saying it referring to other men (basically, I need to get work done). Knowing that individual, he would've stopped if we had a female join our org.
