I worry about what my co-workers say about me behind my back. So Friday I volunteered to bring in donuts, which one of the secretaries usually does. I got this listening device, about the size of a flashdrive, and hid it between the folds of the box. Then I went out to my car to monitor their conversation as they ate the donuts. It was pretty boring, actually. They mostly talked about work and The Big Bang Theory. One of the secretaries did say she was grateful to me for doing donut duty that day, but she had already thanked me in person, so that wasn't new information. Do you ever worry about what they're saying about you, or is that an unhealthy preoccupation?

You just need more microphones. Five or so spread around the office should do

If you're a man, then your man card has been revoked a proper man gives no fucks what other people think of him. If you're a woman then carry on.
Also, depending on where you're living, you're potentially committing a crime by using listening devices, but your dumbass probably didn't know that.

>man card

You don't think this neat spy stuff makes me sound like a cool man, James Bond style?
Gabriel Taylor
It makes you sound like a spineless faggot, if that what your goal was.
Adrian Flores
This, imagine being so insecure you bug the break room at your workplace.

>a proper man gives no fucks what other people think of him.
That's about as inaccurate as possible
Chase Torres
It's an unhealthy preoccupation, who the fuck cares what people think about you?
Kevin Clark
You sound like a massive pussy. I can't even imagine someone being a bigger pussy than bugging a donut box. I'm gonna share this story and talk about the dumb pussy who bugged his co-workers donut box because he's insecure. Jokes on you, you won't be able to hear me shit talking you.
Brody Hill
you are in the US
that was illegal
in all states you need the consent of at least one person involved to record a conversation
and in many states you need the consent of everyone involved
Connor Baker
Not true. It's usually only illegal to record someone. He only listened to them.
Matthew Torres
That's probably a good idea. Spread 'em out and catch my co-workers off-guard. They might have just not been talking about me in those particular minutes.
It's also possible they need prompting. I've been thinking of a more elaborate plot, where I order delivery, like thai food or something for the whole office. I make a deal with the delivery boy ahead of time, pay him to do recon, so that when he comes in, I bolt out, find some excuse to leave the office. He hangs around for a couple of minutes, asks my co-workers:
"Hey, what do you think of user?"
And then reports back to me. I haven't worked out all the details yet.
Brody Parker
a few states don't include eavesdropping, no recording is made, but they are very few
double check your state, code as written is at the bottom of the link

Jokes on you- I DON'T CARE! I take some measures that admittedly might sound a little extreme at first to know what the people I work with every day think of me. But it matters little what some rando on the internet thinks. Especially when you're already making it clear you know absolutely nothing about me (when did I say I was insecure, for example?)
Jason Jackson
why would a dilevery boy give a shit how you are like at work
Chase Cox
op you need to chill tf out
Nobody gives a shit about you more than you give a shit about some random guy who passes you on your walk to work
Hunter Gray
Well I'd be paying him. I have to figure out the logistics of that. Like maybe I get him to deliver it to the lobby, I meet him there and pay him $20 to wait around for a couple minutes, then take it all the way up to the office. Problem is that I'd have to keep making excuses to leave the office and they might get suspicious. But he'd just be in it for the money.
Xavier Rivera
Passive aggressively trying to spy on your coworkers to find out what they think of you, instead of just speaking with them, makes you insecure. Dipshit.
Jordan Gonzalez
Riiiiight, cause it would be sooooo easy to just "speak" with them. Just come right out and ask,
"Hey what do you think of me? Do you think I'm a cool guy?"
As if
A. That wouldn't be incredibly awkward
and
B. They would actually be honest, put on the spot like that.
Cooper Campbell
well president Nixon tried to the same and now he is neither a president or alive soooooo, no I don't care about what people say about me
Caleb Jones
Did you just spend $30 to have it be thrown away with the uneaten donuts? And who picks up donuts just to run out of the building a second later?
Xavier Robinson

Ryder White
user wasn't asking why would the delivery guy ask... but what logical reason would he have to care? Other than you getting him to spy for you...
Adam Adams
So you went from paranoid that they were talking about you to finding out they don't even think about you.
What a loser lol.
Joseph Perez
Do whatever mental gymnastics you have to, shit for brains. You ARE insecure, 100%. Fag.
Mason Russell
Ah, good point. He'd need a pretense. We'd have to come up with a script ahead of time. Maybe I could get him to pretend to be gay, put on a lisp, ask my co-workers something like,
"Is he a nice guy? You think he's cute, right? Do you think he's gay?"
That could potentially get me some very valuable intel about my standing with the ladies in the office.
Gabriel Morris
Id make him pay me 100.
No kidding lol
Aiden Garcia
Seems excessive. These guys make minimum wage. You really think he'd need that much just to ask a group of strangers one question and maybe make like he wants to ask me out?
Oliver Allen
Prove me wrong
Pro tip: you can’t
Jason Sullivan
Really, I don't think it's the donut box that's the problem.
