    I work in a massive factory. Think 1000 plus. It's full of gossip which is to be expected. The question I have for AH. How do you ask a bird out without getting destroyed by your work mates ? Female sane answers more valued ! Lol.

    Ask a bird out?

    First advice, you need to get out of the 1960s.

    Wait for the aul factory party or the likes then you can put the attempt/rejection down to being full as a bull.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,091 ✭✭✭✭bnt


    Have a read of this or this for starters.

    tl;dr? Forget it, it's more trouble than it's worth.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Ask her ugly mate out ?
    If she looks disappointed , drop her mate and ask her out .

    Let us know how you get on , I'm thinking bout asking out one of the caterers at work.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,819 ✭✭✭liam7831


    Leave the air out of her car tyre and then be waiting to help the damsel in distress


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,499 ✭✭✭Yester


    Strike up a general conversation about how boring it is working in the factory. Then strike up a conversation about where you like to go for a few drinks on the weekend. Then ask her if she would like to help organise a strike for better conditions.

    He's already guilty of committing a thought crime. He should be castrated at the very least for this.

    I've just copped the word "on" in the title and have no further interest in this thread. Wuss

    Punishment before the crime. That's the way of the future!

    Pretend to have a broken leg. Come into work in a wheelchair. Wheel up to her and say “Hi bird, wanna come for a ride with me?”

    Hes ok if he imagines it as consensual.
    Be no harm to sign an affidavit though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 872 ✭✭✭Captain Red Beard


    Are you both on speaking terms?
    Do you work the same shift pattern, in the same area?
    Or do you just pass each other on a shift change, never speaking?

    A sexy pic of you in your lingerie (possibly doing a tiger pose to show your adventurous side) or a musical number involving the entire work force.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,033 ✭✭✭✭Richard Hillman


    Don't do it. She could be one of those mentallers that would report you for sexual harassment. Next thing you'll have the Irish Times camped outside your work place asking the company about Toxic Masculinity.

    Kidnap her dog. Then feed it bacon for two days straight. As soon as the "lost pet" posters start to appear, return the dog claiming you found it. By this stage it'll associate you with bacon and love you and girls love people who love their pets.

    If it doesn't work, hey - you got to play with a dog for two days!

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.
