Do we have a rough idea when they will get back from the lunch break, assuming it's after this? I want to time my pizza order correctly.

Lunch is often 1pm to 2pm. Can vary slightly.

Much like recollections 😂

So basically she was a tea lady on over £500k a year.

I think your average tea lady would have much more of an idea of what was going on tbh.

Haha I sometimes delay activities due to watching this too

Quirkyme · 24/05/2024 12:07

Yeah I did think I heard shouting from the public before. Just before she cried earlier.

They must be saying all sorts

She does have a problem with her memory, doesn’t she?

Selective cognitive decline?

Oh a different name thrown under the bus. Is there any more space under it?

Legalilse - Sue will be thrown under the bus again.

FatAndFiftySomething · 24/05/2024 12:03

The more icily polite but with an undercurrent of nastiness they are, the more I like them.

murasaki · 24/05/2024 11:59

Sure it's a huge organisation, and you have levels of management , but you should meet with the top level regularly and ask questions, and they should report issues upwards.

You don't just sit on a throne like Marie Antoinette.

@WatchOutMissMarpleIsAbout

I like razor cut throat people hehe.

Quirkyme · 24/05/2024 11:57

Stop imagining Paula!

Peregrina · 24/05/2024 11:57

She is not answering the question - was the contract fair?

WatchOutMissMarpleIsAbout · 24/05/2024 11:57

DanielGault · 24/05/2024 11:56

God, I love this guy 😍

He’s like a razor. Cut throat.

FatAndFiftySomething · 24/05/2024 11:54

Did I hear that right? They have no idea where he is? But still alive I presume? They can’t trace him anywhere?

Show quote history

Changed his name and moved abroad?

Peregrina · 24/05/2024 11:57

"Do you think the contract fair?" " I am not sure I understood."

Well I did Ms Vennells, and I was never paid your sort of salary.

Quirkyme · 24/05/2024 11:57

Yeah she's manipulative and passive aggressive. Everything is deliberate and calculated, including her voice change

Is it me or has she tempered the timbre of her voice?

Yeah - sad vicar talking to a non.understanding person
