AIBU to be upset partner changed his gmail password?

Well that one job he’s saved you from having to do

Firstly, I agree with everybody else that he needs to stop being a twat and do his own job applications.

And while email is indeed private, even though you didn’t actually access it, I’d also be wondering why he’s so upset about the fact you might have seen something in there. A man that treats you like this one way is probably treating you like it in another way too.

This is all irrelevant because she logged in using his Google account, rather than into his Gmail, but I guess it's quicker to write a load of paragraphs having a go at the OP than read her (few) posts.

She didn’t access his email. Read her posts properly.

Stop doing this job for man baby

he asked you to. apply for jobs for him and thats what you were doing. I think after his reaction I would say you can do it yourself from now on.

Meh, I think you are both overreacting.

Just set up a new gmail and indeed account for him and carry on.Then tell him he’s an idiot because he linked the accounts and you needed to log in with his password.

As for you applying to jobs for him, I think he has clearly demonstrated that he is incompetent by not understanding basic things like linked accounts… that being said It doesn’t bother me that you are doing this. I’m a believer of playing to strengths in a marriage. As long as he’s pulling his weight in other areas I don’t think it’s a problem.

It would appear there’s a few on here that don’t understand linked accounts

How old is your partner that he doesn't know how to fill out and submit job applications? What a whiney asshole. Let me guess, you do the majority of childcare too.

It's time for him to do his own shit instead of expecting you to do what is his to do, then yelling because you logged in using his Gmail account to access the app you were using to submit the applications. Fuck that bullshit. If he's so miserable at his job, he should be even more motivated to get off his ass and do his own job hunts and submissions.

Now that he's changed his password, that's a reason to tell him he has to deal with his career from now on. You will assist with nothing.

He was rude and disrespectful and he's using your work to be lazy. He doesn't have time, pffffft. Well, now he does.

She didn’t though…..

"But she still logged into his email account".....
No she didn't. She signed into Indeed with his Google account

I think what you meant to say was that you are signing in with his "Google account". Not his "Gmail".
If you signing with a Google account, you are correct, you are not accessing his email.
A Google account and Gmail are not the same thing

Stop doing the applications for him. Easy. (I never would have started in the first place)

So have you responded to say you only logged onto Indeed and not Gmail and he can apply for his own jobs from now on?

She logged into his email account WITH HIS KNOWLEDGE AND PERMISSION!!!!! She was filing out job applications for the lazy arsehole!!! Even on Sunday she was doing that not him!!!

But she still logged into his email account.

Would you be ok with your DH going onto your MN account of opening your diary, even if he didn’t read any of it?

I wouldn’t be applying for any jobs for my DH but if I did and it meant logging into someone’s email then I’d tell them before doing it and see if it was ok.

At work we sometimes use each others PC to print something out without needing them to log off.
Their email account is open but I would never think to check it. Not purely because it wouldn’t be allowed but because I’m not nosey and respect their privacy.
Why would I treat my coworkers with more respect for my DP.

So don't do it. Why are you doing this?!
He is not working 24/7. Not having time is a shit excuse. Not knowing "how to do it properly" is also a shit excuse. He can't be arsed so he found an easy solution. If he can't even fill in an application, I am not sure he is qualified for the jobs you are applying for on his behalf.

Just don’t do it.

You didn’t access his emails (louder for those at the back!).

Maybe he misunderstood and is feeling sensitive about the situation but he needs to grow up and either accept support or do it himself.

He has more time than you, I expect.

Weaponised incompetence.

Leave him to it then. Tell him you tried to help mans it wasn’t acceptable.

Stop doing them for him anyway.

Maybe he got a notification that made him think you were accessing his emails rather than logging in via gmail.

He either doesn't understand how Indeed works (most likely) or he's intentionally messing around with you, asking you to do something then berating you for doing it. Stop doing his applications for him; no one likes doing this stuff but he needs to learn and if he's not able to handle applying he's not going to land the job or be able to keep it, so you're not doing him any favours in the long run.

(Also, PLEASE say that the two young children aren't his - because if he's expecting you to do this shite and howling at you about it AND you're doing all the hands-on childcare, the situation is really out of control).

Yanbu - time to stop helping him send job applications - everything he asks say no sorry I dont want to get shouted at again for doing something you asked me to do.
What a POS

She didn't look at his email.

Oh why am I bothering, nobody reads the thread!

This basically sums it up in a nutshell.
