Cheeky laundry fucker.

My dd has recently started a new job . A chap that works there travels from wherever he lives and stays in a hotel for the week and goes home at weekends.

He has asked her to do his washing for him and has offered to pay.

Dd didn’t know what to say and has come home with a bag of his washing. She is furious that he has asked her , saying that it’s sexist and a bloody cheek, which I agree with.

My washing machine is on it’s last legs as it is without doing a cheeky fuckers bloody washing as well !

I wouldn’t mind but it’s Monday , he’s had the weekend to do his own washing.

I’m tempted to bung it in the machine with a red sock !

So he thinks she has washed it but not given the promised payment?

I remember when I got a waitressing job after months and months of looking for work. I was so relieved to actually be back working (I was 21) and had no idea what the hell to say when my new boss took me upstairs to the flat above the restaurant and told me part of my job would be washing, drying and ironing the napkins which of course was fine with me. All part of the waitressing job.... and then he handed me a laundry basket and told me, "and when you're waiting for the napkins to dry, get on with this lot" and it was his own personal laundry. I was also handed his work shirts to iron. I needed the job so I just got on with it. It's 20 years later and I admit I would still struggle to think what to say if told the same now.

I was eventually let go very soon after I completely blanked (purposely pretended I had no idea what he was on about) his attempt to sleep with me. The bloke must have been in his 50's! Ew. I'm happy to say I was the last waitress there and it was closed soon after.

@Sofacat so he thinks it was washed but he hasn’t paid?

This is not about the washing. Teach your daughter some assertiveness and self respect

Thisismytimetoshine · 09/03/2020 21:49

She didn’t say no but she didn’t say yes , a price wasn’t agreed on either
I’m a bit confused by this. She took the bag home Confused. She didn’t have to say yes, she implied it when she took the bag!
She needs to grow a backbone; I’d have laughed at this, even when I was younger. 22 isn’t a young teenager?

hoovermyrug it has been a good life lesson- read the whole thread, she was caught in the hop as many of us have been when we were young .

No payment had been made as far as I know.

I don’t think so, op. Not many of us would have inadvertently taken in washing because we were caught on the hop.

I disagree - I can remember being that age and not knowing what to say to CFs - unfortunately my parents didn’t equip me with the tools to do so. As I’ve got older I’ve learned how to nip things in the bud.

Good for your DD OP that she gave it back

loserssaywhat · 10/03/2020 07:05

Of course it's sexist. I'm with you op. I also remember being young, quite shy and new at my job and wanting to avoid confrontation by not saying no a lot times when I knew I should. He is a cheeky fucker.

FetchezLaVache · 10/03/2020 07:08

So you mean, he assumes the bag DD gave him contained his clean washing, but he hasn't paid her?

Then he is, as you say, a Cheeky Laundry Fucker.
