To think Universal Credit are a bunch of cunts

My dh works for a subsidary of Tesco he gets paid on the last Friday of every month ,I thought all Tesco Employees did ?
Maybe not .

Your stupid employer pays your wages every 4 weeks, rather than how most normal companies pay every month.
so you get 13 pay slips, meaning in one month per year you get double
Is it Tesco ?
They should pay last day of the month like normal companies do

They're just words that mean something like all other words. And you clearly know that if those words get you her up! You don't want to use them, don't. But some of us like to have a wider vocabulary and use all the words available to us!

Not one fucking fluffing bit

There are some fuckers fluffers in society and some cunts chaps in life in general that shit poop their knickers when some cunt chap swears.

If some cunt chap saying cunt chap is all you cunting chapping have to lose your cunting chapping mind over in life, you're doing better than 99% of cunts chaps and should be cunting chapping grateful you dont have real cunts chaps of issues to lose your fucking fluffing shit poop about.

I think so, it gives an instant, poor impression, and could distract from the point of the post.

Does it really matter if she swears or not?

If you want to, no problem! That’s an instant reaction, to a sudden, ,extreme occurrence. On here, there is so much swearing, it has no shock effect and is pointless ! Just my opinion. Swear away, if you can’t think of anything else to say, but there are better ways to express yourself.

I've never ever used the word nor heard my husband - when I hear it I cringe for some reason

I see. Would it be OK to call the drawing pin a cunt in such a case, or would that be excessive, do you think?

In my view, an encounter with a petty-minded member of the swear police necessitates a bit of effing-and-jeffing.

If they object to the language permitted on a website or forum, they can put up or shut up imo. It's like walking into a pub and moaning that it sells beer.

I think anyone would swear if they trod on a drawing pin for example, but if they’re trying to make a point on a forum,there is no need to use it to demonstrate anger, disappointment, frustration etc. It actually becomes ineffective and is superfluous, apart from showing up the poster’s lack of appropriate vocabulary. It’s a bit like a naughty child having a tantrum. We all swear, but there’s a time and place for it!

What would constitute necessary swearing in your view?

It gives a bad impression, that a person cannot be articulate about their problems without resorting to unecessary swearing. I know Mumsnet unfortunately allows swearing, but no one has to!

OP have you approached your employer to ask about options to tide you over whilst you try and change the payment date with UC?

This will just keep happening and it looks like you are the only one who can sort it out.

It’s not necessary to use that language to get your points and opinions across!

@LiterallyOnFire What a nasty ignorant ageist attitude

Why @oldsu ?

Do you consider blu-rinse to be an age-specific characterisation.

Maybe you're right, I've never heard it used that way. I was just agreeing with the "conservative matrons" comment that I quoted. Which was what I meant by it. So it was politically intended, not a comment on age.

Quite honestly all the "save to cover it", "get a better job" brigade do sound clueless and ossified, but I don't think it's an age or generational thing. It's more a "don't look past the end if your nose" issue.

There's a sort of wilfull ignorance in the failure to apperciate that someone can be in a position where they have so little spare income that non-payment of something leaves them destitute. And they have no idea what stress and panic it can cause.

I once didn't get paid as promised in my first month in a new job, because of a typo in my start date. I felt sick when I found out my salary hadn't been paid, and my mortgage and all my other standing orders were due to be paid the following day. When payroll told me that the system showed I wasn't going to start till a month after I actually had, and it couldn't be sorted out for a month, I thought I was going to faint. I was in an absolute panic. I had no money and didn't even think I had enough petrol in my car to get home. There was no way I was capable of being rational, I was so stressed out.

Thankfully, my lovely (and very assertive) boss went on the warpath, got them to make an emergency advance payment, so that I had money for the next few days and got an agreement that they would reimburse any bank charges I incurred. OP hasn't got a lovely boss who can put things right, and she's in the shit.

Some people lack the empathy to grasp the impact something like this can have, and prefer to punch down than punch up. I think they like the superior feeling it gives them.

I think the OP may realise now that, while UC has many faults, the cock-up here is with the way the pay date is shown on the employer's RTI return. They can input the pay date as the last day of the month and still pay on the last Friday of the month.

If everyone got a better paid job who is going to be cleaning the streets, working at the council, hospital, retail, care jobs in large towns and cities? Unless maybe rents are slashed by 50%, that might work?

Is there a local foodbank who could help you out in crisis? Maybe a local 'social credit' scheme or similar could lend you some money to tide you over? A foodbank would signpost you to more help too. YANBU. I truly believe they train civil servants to be cunty.

What do you imagine would happen if everyone just got a better job?

Well exactly for all those saying just get a better paid job ,we would all be up shit cheek if nobody was doing low paid/minimum wage jobs .

When people are living month to month it's often a struggle making it to end end of the month its all.very well sitting g there saying it's not a problem as it will be made up next month but that doesn't help.this month when people are struggling
Honestly some posters have no idea .

Does it really count as rude if not actively directed to individuals? I'd be concerned if she was calling them cunts to their faces but I assume she isn't.
