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.

Brown nosing bastard 😁

Fuck off Beth. You're a prick.

Seymour5 · 28/01/2023 07:59

Take your backpack off before getting on a crowded bus!

Geetars · 28/01/2023 08:04

Sister, I love you - but for the love of god please look after yourself better so we don’t all have to keep picking up the pieces!

twistedcister · 28/01/2023 08:10

Just fuck off with your 'tongue hanging out panting like a dog on heat' behaviour and stop liking the tweets of an impressionable 18 year old young woman.

Just fuck off with your eternal stubbornness and utter lack of self reflection.

Actually - just fuck off.

Campervangirl · 28/01/2023 08:23

You're shit in bed, you've no personality, you've no conversation, I don't give a fuck about your gym routine or your sad gym buddies, your personal hygiene leaves a lot to be desired cheesy dick, you haven't brushed your teeth for a week because your toothbrush is on charge in the kitchen you filthy fucker and you swan around in your designer gear with a dirty body and unclean teeth and think you're better / deserve better than me.
I'm 1000% a better human being than you and I deserve better and I deserve a medal for putting up with your bullshit for all these years.
Fuckin loser
(Wanted to say to my oh as we're breaking up but I remained dignified)

MysteriousDuck2110 · 28/01/2023 08:24

Stop it. Just fucking stop the spiteful digs and judging comments. I don't care what you did 35 years ago or what your friends daughter does with her DC. I don't want to hear if you think I should use cot bumpers, should be introducing food, should let him cry or should only feed every 4 hours etc. Things have changed, just chill out and let me do my thing with my 3mo.

Toooldtoworry · 28/01/2023 08:24

If you actually shut the fuck up and listen you might learn something and save yourself hours of unnecessary work.

Sad that you're leaving, but relieved because I can't cope with your disorganisation.

Get out of bed you lazy bastard. I NEVER get to lay in past 6.30am.

JustDrama · 28/01/2023 08:26

You can speak to all the other parents all you like. But I think you'll find yet again, it's your child that's the issue with the problems in the friendship group.

whattheFmate · 28/01/2023 08:31

You were a real cunt last night. You seem to have a real inability to just fucking LISTEN. And then pretend nothing happened. I see right through you. You're like dealing with a badly behaved child. Just because you just got paid doesn't mean you can swan about like Billy fucking big dick. How pathetic you are, that something so minor can alter your thought patterns and turn you into a massive bell end. Fuck you.

namechangeforthisbleep · 28/01/2023 08:35

I wish I didn't hire a load of snowflakes (yes I hate that term too but it's just so appropriate) who can't handle a 4 hour shift and their "anxiety" being used as an excuse for being lazy and shit

lbnblbnb · 28/01/2023 08:38

No, the issue is not that the school does not allow students to use their mobile phones at school.
You allowed your own addictions and choice of a succession of appalling , violent men to take priority over your children. They have the ability to live better lives, but you constantly undermine the support we have put in place for them, the counselling we have found for them, the help to fill their gapped learning, the huge amount of resources we use to try to help. It is always our fault and you infect your kids with that attitude. You coming in for a meeting that goes on for two hours, most of it with you shouting, is not 'protecting your kids'.

Just fuck off.

tired40 · 28/01/2023 08:39

The joy of knowing all three of you cunts were not offered promotions still makes me smile. I love that one of you despite actually working hard but was one of the biggest slime balls had to leave and another was made redundant. I'm not at all surprised that the ring leader got off lightly but that's the way she works. I hope all of you learned something from this.

ReindeerSkull · 28/01/2023 08:48

Love these threads.

1 - you say you "don't do being ill, don't have time for illness" etc, but actually mean as soon as you get the slightest hint of illness you bang on about it CONSTANTLY, if someone else feels ill you definitely feel the same or worse than them but you're going to keep going because YOU DON'T DO BEING ILL. It's incredibly annoying, if you're ill then go home, if you're OK then stop going on about it!

2 - no, the department would not fall to wreck and ruin without you. We all know what we are doing. We're a team, not you and all of us. You're not as great at your job as you think you are.

3 - Actually I could have done with you getting up, sorting your own tea etc. I don't expect you to "help me out" but that would have been nice.

4 - I really like you, but I can also see what others mean when they say you take over. I know you have a lot of responsibilities but my children are not one of them. Please take a step back!

5 - You're a dick and your beard looks bloody ridiculous.

Runningoncoffeealone · 28/01/2023 08:50

I don't care that my front room windows are low down and you can easily see inside - I'd still much rather you knocked on my door instead of suddenly appearing at my window. what if I was scratching my arse?

Please stop sending my daughter home from school with recycled boxes which have random things (bottle tops, paper, a wooden fork) glued to them EVERY. DAY. She wants me to keep them all and I'm going to need a bigger house.

I know I said that I'm handing in my notice because I don't feel the job is the right fit for me and I have found somewhere closer which works better around childcare, but I'm actually leaving because you're a massive asshole and I can't stand working with you any longer. I also get paid more for the exact same role so I think you're quite tight, too.

mickandrorty · 28/01/2023 09:04

just stop!! you are embarrassing yourself everyone is embarrassed for you, you are parents in your 30's all your pathetic drama and attention seeking is ridiculous! I would say i don't know how you manage to get into so much hassle but i do!! Its your big fat vile mouth, you gossip and spread shit about everyone. you're not as big and tough as you think you are, you give it the big i am and one day someone is really going to give you a pasting an to be honest you deserve it.

oh that feels better!

Smartstuffed · 28/01/2023 09:09

Here's an idea. Why don't you replace the majority of the flatulent-sounding job-titles related to 'communication' with one person who gets off their back-side and spends time going around the service areas. sounding us out, face to face?

YorkieTheRabbit · 28/01/2023 09:47

Another for my list
I’m neither a plumber or a magician!
Yes it’s been going on for over a week but I’ve given you as much help as I can. You’ve messed about rather than getting it fixed so now you’re stuck. And no I’m not paying for it, you’re 40 years old for fuck sake, grow up!

The reason the SEN team hasn’t passed on details of your daughter’s SEN is because your daughter has no diagnosed SEN. She really is just a rude, lazy, obnoxious teenager who has no respect for anyone around her. Perhaps if you got off your arse and did some parenting instead of expecting the school to do everything she would be a happier, better-adjusted child.

postwarbulge · 28/01/2023 09:53

N, SSE, I shall not get a smart meter. Although the meter is free, your installation charge is extortionate!

Toooldtoworry · 28/01/2023 10:13

You exhaust me with your constant drama, and if you are so sick of this job and don't need the money quite and stay home with the kids

OopNorfDahnSarf · 28/01/2023 10:19

No. I shall not come in to work while recovering from covid to listen to you wanging on about my poor performance. The reason my motivation has disappeared is because I have to work with you. You ruin everything by being inconsistent, changing your mind, interfering.Leave me alone.

DilemmaDelilah · 28/01/2023 10:25

No I absolutely do NOT want to attend another whole day team session. I have asked to attend remotely and if I have to attend it in person I will really resent it. I think they are a complete waste of time anyway - I have absolutely no interest in sharing my personality profile with the rest of the team and quite frankly I am not at all interested in anyone else's personality profile. I deeply resent being forced to do the personality survey in the first place, especially as it was meant to be optional. I can work with the team but it doesn't mean I actually like most of you and I certainly don't want to have to drive 40 minutes with my packed lunch in a bag so that I can be either bored out of my skull or deeply embarrassed for a whole day, needing to wear a mask and to keep my distance from people who seem intent on getting as close to me as possible, just so that you can boost your managerial ego. (I am CEV and my DH is extremely CEV and I have been working from home since March 2020). I would much rather stay in my nice little home office actually being able to get on with the huge amounts of work I have to do and be able to cook something low carb for lunch and be there when my husband eats so that I can see he doesn't choke. THANK YOU!

WishIWasACavewoman · 28/01/2023 10:30

You are taking all the entitlements of someone working to support your family. But you are indulging in a hobby job and would earn more on minimum wage stacking shelves. Meanwhile I'm employing a cleaner and paying for childcare and bringing in the income we live off. I didn't want a house husband but I hate this unequal and dishonest fantasy.
