Things I haven’t said out loud this week

1 - No, we haven’t asked you to come over for a meal in ages, no, I don’t care how many hints you drop, it’s falling on deaf ears.
I don’t expect you to help prepare or cook when you’re here BUT I do expect you to supervise your kids, not plonk down on the sofa and completely ignore them. Accidents may happen but if you actually looked after them instead of scrolling through your phones, we wouldn’t have had a house plant tipped over the carpet, used toilet roll and wee on the toilet floor, orange juice poured in the dogs bowl plus numerous others. Oh and by the way, we’ve never been invited over to your house in the eight years you’ve lived there!

2 - Im sorry your daughter would rather spend time with her gran but for god’s sake be honest, you spent the first ten years of her life bouncing from one disastrous relationship to another because you were desperate for a bloke. You put them in front of her needs. Her gran might not be perfect but at least she was there for her.

I'm worried I'm one of these shit people in the office. If it is me, I'm sorry!

Ihadenough22 · 25/04/2023 22:19

Do you know what, I did not need to hear what you said to me.

I know why you said it and being honest you were lucky I did not tell you a few home truths.
You just expect everything and everyone to go the way you want.
The truth is that your in a great position now due to all the help you got while other people around you are trying to make the best of their situations.
I can't say that the next time you decide to do or say something annoying that I won't put you in your place.

#1. You are immature and unprofessional, the pair of you. Grow up, do your job and quit with the envy! You have no clue what's going on in other people's lives, so quit with the green eyes, pick up your shit and if you feel you need more help, bloody speak to your management, don't take it out on the rest of us! Blinkin heck. Oo. Felt good to say that!

#2. You are so manipulating. I'm honestly so sick of it. You make me so sad and so stressed with your pathetic tantrums. If you were anyone else on this earth, I would have blocked and given you not another thought. You take absolutely no responsibility for the way you treat others at all. And I don't think you ever have. Doesn't matter what the situation or what has happened, you are always the victim.

Gingernaut · 29/04/2023 07:37

The next time you call, please have a pen and paper handy, the calls are stacking up while I'm waiting for you to find a pen, paper and your details

Could you put your teeth back in please, it's a bad line and I can't work out what you're trying to say

No we can't put you through to appointments at 0300 on a Saturday morning you freak

lonelyinyournightmare · 29/04/2023 07:42

You did that on purpose - and you knew how upset I was. No need to call me out on it in front of everyone.

Well it backfired. I know what you are now. My guard is up, and no more defending you to other people. You made your bed now lie in it.

Geetars · 29/04/2023 08:29

I know you’re very suddenly seriously ill and yes I would probably be bitter too.

I am also ill though not seriously. It doesn’t mean that I don’t appreciate that you’re extremely ill. It’s not a competition. I’m struggling too and just trying to get better.

Ubellend · 29/04/2023 23:21

I've had to put up with you constantly talking about me for months. Being nosy about my life. It's harassment. Well, now you are supposed to be loved up with her, fuck I pity her. If only she knew what you've been up to in work you prick. It's your own fault, the latest thing. Your panicking now, that she might go find out. I'm laughing at you every time I walk by you, arsewipe.

Ihadenough22 · 02/05/2023 16:11

I am glad what happened took place. The truth is that what happened suits me better in so many ways. It also confirmed what I had been thinking for a while.
I have realised a few things now. Being honest it enabling me to put together a plan and make decisions that will suit me going forward.
The one decision I have made is that I won't put up with been treated poorly and then expected to carry the load because it suits other people.
I won't say what I have noticed yet but in time I will.

lonelyinyournightmare · 04/05/2023 19:55

Owch. Bet that hurt today. That is what happens when you go out of your way to be difficult. Karma.

Tidsleytiddy · 05/05/2023 13:12

Dear oh dear. Out 15 hours to pull in some money. What’s he doing? Sitting indoors with a can on?

ReneBumsWombats · 05/05/2023 14:27

Not my problem any more. Resolve it yourself.

halfpasteleven · 05/05/2023 22:22

Do you even realise how alone you make me feel?

PoseyFlump · 06/05/2023 21:31

I think I hate you.

Haventsaidthisoutloud · 08/05/2023 19:10

I hate working from home. I hate my job and the people I work with. I really can’t face this week.

SaveMeFromForearms · 08/05/2023 20:11

In a different life you would be my person. I'm scared I'll be in love with you long after you're out of my life. And I'll never be properly happy again.

JamSandle · 08/05/2023 20:12

You have time on your side but if you're not careful you'll become unemployable.

I dont say this to scare you. But the world isn't as forgiving as family are.

JamSandle · 08/05/2023 20:12

I dont want to hang out with you because listening to you talk ad nauseum about yourself gives me a headache.

Mendholeai · 09/05/2023 07:23

Also, my kids aren’t going anywhere near you so you can stop trying to groom them right now. How desperate you are. Like I said, I see the cruelty in your eyes. You don’t want anything good for them, you just want to hurt me.

Gingernaut · 13/05/2023 16:26

Yes. I grassed you up to the boss on Teams, although her calling you to ask after your health makes it obvious it was me

Coming in looking like Death and coughing 'til you vomit is not 'fine', especially when I'm asthmatic and clinically vulnerable

No I won't touch your poxy Morrison's pastry, you've got lurgi

ssd · 14/05/2023 08:00

I'm sorry i can't be bothered. I'm just looking after myself.

Lentilweaver · 14/05/2023 09:12

Please stop eating so fucking loudly! How is it you can eat perfectly quietly in public, but save your chomping for home?

Toooldtoworry · 14/05/2023 16:42

I am soooooooo fucking ill. I really did not need your lurgy. Especially when I'm working ridiculous hours this week.

You best bloody pull your finger out your arse and actually do dinner and sort the washing out.

MinnieMountain · 15/05/2023 17:12

Manage your team rather than ignoring us and focusing on your next promotion. I’m taking on some of the mental load of their worries because I’m the most experienced but I REALLY don’t want to be a manager (as you know).

BearSoFair · 15/05/2023 17:19

Please stop calling me on my day off when there's another member of management on shift today...I know they can be bristly, but they are working today. I am not!

lonelyinyournightmare · 07/07/2023 20:53

ohhh karma. You silly, silly sod. Did you really think you could win this one. You screwed up big time - and you don't even know it yet. I could have made you life so much easier, but you decided to try to play the system. Bad choice.
