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.

Fucking surveyor dickhead

NorthernDancer · 22/02/2024 13:26

That's it, I'm done. It really isn't my job to facilitate your having a relationship with your GS if you don't actually want one. Oh and while we're at it, perhaps tell your DD how rude and entitled she is and then reflect on why this might be.

JamSandle · 22/02/2024 13:43

I dont really see a purpose to life anymore.

CostedStrikeRate · 22/02/2024 15:45

Ah, so now I see what goes on behind the scenes.

crackofdoom · 22/02/2024 16:20

Random man of social media, I hope you realise the only reason I keep you on my friends list while you post umpteen times a day with pictures of you and your 20- years- younger girlfriend drinking heavily is so that I can watch the inevitable fallout with popcorn.

halfpasteleven · 22/02/2024 21:48

What did we do to you that you moved us to a different dept? You didn't move anyone else, despite saying you would?
Are we just the easy option?

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 23/02/2024 18:57

I don't know why I play along. False as fuck.

TheSandgroper · 18/02/2024 05:15

@bottleofbeer No, you really aren't the bad one. You are a good one and you will continue to be one of the good ones in this world. Our world is the better for having you in it.

Turn away from him, walk away and shake the dust from your shoes. Every day without him will be better than any day with him.

You know when you take two minutes to say something nice to someone you don't even know? You can make them so much happier. Thank you.

It's still bad. I'm still being treated awfully but I'll keep your words in my mind.

I wish you nothing but good things.

TheSandgroper · 23/02/2024 22:58

@bottleofbeer I didn’t know why you are better than him, I just “knew” you were. But now I do know why.

You have nice manners and you care about that. Thank you for your reply. No matter how bad things get, he will never have the nice manners you have.

Hang in there.

TheSandgroper · 23/02/2024 23:03

@bottleofbeer one other thing, you know that new thanks button at the bottom there? I think it’s only the writer who sees the people who activate it.

Three other people agree with what I said.

Alltheyearround · 23/02/2024 23:21

Your shoe shelf is in the way (communal hall)

Why is it me putting the bins out every time?

I know you think I am exaggerating but having a kid with multiple SEND is hard, the practical stuff and the unhelpful systems. I know you work in a school. Try not to be defensive when I tell you things don't always work well for us/DS at school. It's not your school, you don't have to defend them.

I have lost patience with you. I know its an abusive relationship but I cannot help you.

I have lost patience with you. You are cruel and nasty, don't expect people to like working with you and forget what you have done for years. We are all now just protecting ourselves from your toxic ways.

Have cried myself to sleep every night this week

ComorosPearl · 24/02/2024 00:10

I'm not your secretary. Grow up & organise yourself.

JamSandle · 24/02/2024 14:56

Stop sending me photos of your holiday. I dont give a fuck.

XenoBitch · 25/02/2024 00:29

You are an ableist litte bitch. You are now saying you can't remember the "incident" but yet keep spreading lies about it.

Sadly, we will be seeing you in court.

Lives don't need a big purpose. Sometimes getting from one day to the next is enough. You have your own value, I hope you have had a better day today x

I'm sorry. I hope that whatever is upsetting you has an end in time x

SadnapTwapples · 26/02/2024 19:07

The thing is, if you or your assistant come across as rather hostile, then I won't buy from your business again. It might benefit you to know that.

Toooldtoworry · 26/02/2024 19:39

Some people are fucking stupid.

EchoChamber · 26/02/2024 19:46

Furrybutts · 28/01/2023 07:08

No, I won't be reinstalling my WhatsApp any time soon, because if I do you will start sending endless photos to me again.
I'm not one bit interested in what films you have watched today/ who has died/what you have had for every meal/any new skin blemish you have noticed
I've asked you countless times to stop messaging me so frequently, and you just won't.

I now have a dual SIM phone. WhatsApp is installed on the other number so I can still interact with family and friends plus anyone else who doesn't drain the life out of me.

Here is an idea.......go get a job. The last time you worked was in the 1980s
The amount you fraudulently claim in benefits makes me sick.

Report their fraud.

EchoChamber · 26/02/2024 19:48

I can’t decide if you are actually really malevolent and manipulative as well as narcissistic or just incredibly stupid and lacking in self awareness . Why would I want to spend any time at all with you when every single encounter involves you putting me down , patronising me or criticising me. No Im not ‘misunderstanding’ or ‘twisting things’. Just listen to yourself .

I have this conversation in my head daily - someone I work with is just like this.

Sadly management, though they have had numerous complaints and incidents, fail to do anything about her. Whenever there's a big drama they just do a peace and reconciliation/mediation meeting where she acts as the affronted party!

HospitalitySux · 26/02/2024 21:17

Why do people overreact so much over the smallest thing (or absolutely nothing) or just life happening, when they're supposed to be relaxing/enjoying themselves?
It's like hospitality has turned into a game of how much can you find or make up, that's wrong so you can have a go at someone that you know can't respond with anything other than an apology, no matter how ridiculous or fictitious the complaints are, some people seem to actively go out of their way to catch you out for the power over someone else and expect them be grateful for it.
I keep hearing how shit customer service is, but in all honesty customer behaviour is appalling, it's like we are there to be societies whipping boy, if you're wondering why there's a lack of people wanting to work in hospitality, I'd say that is a pretty big reason tbh.

MrsHamlet · 26/02/2024 21:19

Every time I think we've reached the limits of your incompetence, you surprise me again. You really are utterly fucking useless.
