RA at my University. The biggest secret? We have access to everything. Literally EVERYTHING. I'm talking about room access whenever we want, your permanent home address, your SSN, email, allergies, etc. And my university documented everything, so if you had an alcohol/weed/etc violation we could look it up and also read about the details and everyone who was involved. Normally it was just routine stuff but I was reading one and found out that another RA tried to hide under the sink when the campus security came to her room for a noise violation. We clowned her for a while for that.
I didn't really ever abuse my power except to leave notes in my girl's room every once in a while and to get card access to the other dorms (RAs have 24/7 access to every dorm hall,) but a guy a couple of years back got caught sneaking into girls' rooms and smelling their panties in their drawers.
The power structure changes from university to university, but we were pretty much allowed to do anything with very little/no consequence. I would order food on the school's account (they only documented charges, not who made them,) leave when I was on duty to go to parties (walkies would work up to 2 + miles away,) kick it with females past curfew, and essentially do nothing that was asked of me aside from the mandatory meetings/bulletin board changes, etc. It's a job that is really hard to be good at, and extremely easy to relax and not to anything for. One chick on staff threw a total of 3 events all year, and it was a "requirement" that we throw at least 1 educational event a month, and highly encouraged that we do 2 socials. (I just did one educational event that would double as my social, because I would usually just skip the educational part.)

the product in the shower gel and shampoo we sell is exactly the same yet sold as two completely different products. Same with other products in our skin care line.

That is what I think too. Sometimes I even get my mind all twisted and think I am the odd one out. One of my main flaws at work (if it can be called one) is I don't watch sports like every day. It's like whenever there is that water cooler talk, I am the odd man out. Ironically though when we had a company softball team, all these guys that cherish sports so much don't even know how to throw a baseball right. All this talk about sports and the only thing they plat is golf? Get that stuff out of here!

Word. This is exactly why I can't do the 9-5 thing. Just for an example of each:
1) Used to work with a guy who was the biggest butt-kiss since that Chicago Bears Hall of Famer and would snitch on you if he found out you were so much as taking pens home. (Dude once spent 3 months tracking one specific employee's arrival time to the minute, compiling them into a report for bossman) We found out that he got multiple raises during budget cuts that "froze pay rates and hiring".
2) I once had my phone out at work, which is against the rules even though everybody does it. A higher-up caught me and told me my phone should be locked in my desk during the workday, like I'm playing with a @+#$$*! Tamagotchi in 4th grade social studies. When I reminded him that people got items like iPods, $500 cash, food, and everydamnthing else stolen out of their desk on a regular basis, he said "well if it gets stolen, it gets stolen". Feeling yourself, dude...you don't say no *!*$ like that to a grown-%## man.
3/4) One (married) boss had a whole stable of corpubines he would "take to lunch" every so often. They had unlimited and untracked sick days, sometimes never came back from lunch, and generally got less %@$++*%* than everyone else. (On one occasion he was arguing with one and she screamed something like "but you wasn't saying that when you was trying to lick my %*+#@ and et my %##!" That shut him up fast.)
5) I can't name you a single office party/going away happy hour in which somebody didn't go home with somebody else.
6) Y'all have been on social networks, I don't have to illustrate that one.

What company? Can't wait to tell my girl this. I remember we had run out of bodywash and I told her to use the shampoo and she looked at me like I was crazy.

I was working for a a survey company. We call you and even if you say you don't want to answer the survey, we will call you back.
The only way to avoid being called back is to say : "I am not interested and I would like my number to be placed on the black list."
But once someone told me that and I asked my boss if I should put this guy on the black list,
he told me juste to put it in the defenitive no section (so we will call him for other surveys but not the one he refused.)

I work for AIG. One of the top insurance companies of the world that got bailed out by the government not to long ago. We are worth so much money and our managers all get paid so well but yet, our company is still cheap as hell and still don't give decent raises (well, to the small people anyways). Reality sucks in this type of job. Crazy enough, I became the minority here and I am not even talking about my race. A guy that likes sneakers, hip-hop, skating, art (and other BS that I like) will literally make you look like a total wierdo here. I mean there is some BS high school crap that still happens in the adult life that I never thought would exist no more. You'd be surprised how people react when they get a little bit of power.
I agree with all of this. I work as an assistant property manager and im always hearing about affairs and all sorts of drama from all the tenants in my building. Its crazy what goes on at work. My friend also works for AIG and she pretty much says the same thing.

Typically it's the people who are stupid enough to get caught that have bitter feelings towards RAs. Type of dudes to show out in front of their friends because they feel entitled.Originally Posted by trey ohh five

During training they essentially tell you to snitch on your friends, go out of your way to find underage drinking, and stop at any room that you thought might be doing something against the rules. Very few actually take that to heart, but the ones who do make the rest of us out to be lame because they snitch like their life depended on it. I had a total of 3 write ups last year, one was because I got called to a room by the campus security, one because a dude was literally drowning because he had passed out in his tub (water was leaking from the 7th floor of the building to the basement,) and the other one was because a dude wanted to be a douche when I was just asking him to turn down the music. I would regularly take shots with the residents that I liked knowing they were underage, would show up stoned to my own events, and partied with a few girls/guys from other floors.
tl;dr most RAs are just average students, and your perception of them will heavily depend on how stupid you are and how much of their training they take to heart.

Summer Camp- I wouldn't trust my own kids with me and my staff.
we are just straight @%# hats, not on that Sandusky level, but we just don't give a !$%%. During the NBA draft the entire staff was sitting in the back room watching the draft while kids were getting picked up

I couldn't tell you how many apartments I laced with multiple free pizzas just 'cause they would say "what's up" from time to time and not act like an immature idiot because of the stigma associated with the RA job. But the dudes who tried to scowl at me and throw me snide remarks? I was the biggest A-Hole in the world. And it wasn't because I had written them up or anything. They just generally didn't like me because they shared your same stagnant mindset.
