Are you really unable to tell when someone is uncomfortably laughing (her words) at some silly remark because everybody around is laughing too versus actually enjoying the joke? Are you really unable to tell when someone doesn't like your company?

Which is, incidentally, why I try to avoid dirty jokes until I know my present company likes dirty jokes. This manager may not have figured that out.
