• Toxic Positivity: "Everything is always great" and the unspoken rule to never talk about your issues.
• Mental health issues not being taken seriously and/or treatment being forced on you
• Alcohol culture: "if we haven't had a beer together, i don't know you"
• meetings. As a programmer i can be super productive, but then i'll be interrupted by a meeting... and that meeting is an hour long... completely stripping my concentration and now i gotta get it back up...
• retro-meetings ... talking about what has been done in the last week... and what we liked and what we hated... i never know what to say "yeah i finished shit" or "i hate working with this shit" but then you have to elaborate....

Singular they/them has existed longer than gendered pronouns... And people intuitively seem to use it when referring to a person with unknown gender, yet when it comes to trans people using it as such, suddenly it is confusing...

I really don't think it's as much of an issue as people think it is... The usage is EXACTLY the same, it just refers to different things depebding on context.
