Grudges you continue to hold

[OneFrenchEgg]

Just drive a different way home, past a car wash and remembered how I refuse to use it on principle 😂
Years ago, I was in a hurry and no one in front - as I drove in, and was being 'washed' by one of the chaps, the one in charge allowed someone to jump the queue as they were 'in a hurry' and 'just wanted a spritz' - nope, they reversed all the way back, had everything, and I sat fuming at the the queue jumpy enablement.
Refuse to go back, I'm sure they are disappointed 😂

One of my friends worked in Lidl as a cleaner and says they treated him badly by nagging him to do a huge amount during his shift, including the near-impossible task of keeping the car park free of litter. He won’t shop there anymore, even though it’s two-minute-walk from his house.

Also, while he was there, a colleague used to spray the baked goods shelves generously with glass cleaner. The croissants and pizzas must have tasted a bit funny.

I would hold onto this in silent fury too. No judgement here!

@postwarbulge

I wanted to buy some Evostick to repair the corner of a kitchen work surface where the Formica had loosened. I was refused when I could not produce an acceptable photo ID: my pensioners' bus pass was not good enough. I was 69 at the time.

Go on, admit it, you're a glue sniffing granny!

My now deceased ex-MIL dug up all the bluebells in the garden of my first house when I was at work one day without my permission because she didn't like them. Never forgave her for it!

This made me roar @TheOtherBennetSister I worked for a horrible woman at an equally horrible company years ago and even now when we’re on the motorway and pass the building, we all flick Vs at it - she’s even retired! It gives me a moment of very childish pleasure.

Lab manager who complained to boss that I tried to break up her marriage by telling her husband that I thought she had left for the day. Apparently I was supposed to change out of my PPE and go looking for her when he rang. It was 7 at night and I hadn't seen her in hours. Still got told off by boss. Years later kept hoping she'd show up in A&E and I'd be her doctor: "Remember me?" Sadly never happened.

How rude of them. Out of interest do you know why they chose not to serve you.

My ex best friend - her and my ex husband have decided they are in love (long time after we divorced so she wasn't implicit in the marriage breakdown). We were so close but since the day I found out I haven't spoken to her, and I never intend to again, the two face treacherous beach.

@twanmever I discovered this one day whilst standing outside a shut Boots long after opening time. The pharmacist was late and therefore they weren't allowed to even open the store.

I have a huge grudge against private schools, having attended one and experienced it’s considerable shortcomings. I normally keep schtum when people boringly talk about sending their kids there and how wonderful it is but on a couple of occasions recently I have had mums basically accuse anyone who can afford it (and I certainly could have) and who doesn’t send their kid to a private school of neglect or abuse. I’d be delighted if every last one closed down and/or transferred to the state sector.

must have been infuriating, but I try to never hold a grudge as you relive it and they affect your life continuously… same with people don’t give them a hold over past hurts … move on without dragging the past along with you.

I used to work for the company who provides the food etc for small corner shops like premier
99% of them were as*les and now I point blank refuse to go in their shops if I know who runs them

Scumbag boss asked my fellow director and I to sign off stock that had it's sell by date burnt off. We both refused and were sacked that day. Two months later his house was burnt down by another disgruntled employee. I am afraid I laughed as they had written fuck off you English bastard on the wall (in Welsh). I still hate him, he used to slurp his soup and use a desert spoon. He holds the crown of c**t of the decade and I have worked for three.

Get over it. None of us gets out of it alive.

I have a lifelong grudge against Chris Tarrant

When I was a kid, about 10 year old., TISWAS was the big thing. We all loved it and dreamed of being on the show

One weekend my mom took me and my sister to the Ideal Home Show at Birminghams NEC. TISWAS had a stall and manning the stall was Chris Tarrant himself., After chatting to him for a while, he invited me and my sister on the show. Took our details and promised to contact us. It was the most exciting day of my young life. I Was going to be on the telly, on TISWAS !!

So, following monday we told all our friends at school, we are going to be on TISWAS., Just had to wait for that invitation

and we waited
and waited
and waited

And no invitation came.

Of course, all our friends at school laughed at us, called us liars, said we made the story up. I was heartbroken. Chris Tarrant had betrayed me, broken my ten year old heart

To this day, I have never forgiven him and refuse to watch him if he is on telly.

Curses to you Chris Tarrant, you monster.

A boss I had many years ago was the most vile, evil bitch I've ever worked for. Utterly narcissistic, bullying, nasty, horrible, the most hateful person I've ever met! I used to go to work feeling physically sick wondering how many minutes after I'd arrived it would be before she started on me. I did eventually walk out which meant I had to change my phone number as she continually rang and harassed me. She was a couple of years older than my mum. Two years ago my darling mum died. I genuinely feel resentment that the evil bitch is still alive and kicking while my mum is no longer here. Bit sinister I know! But it is what it is, my grudge right there.

Many years ago my car broke down in the middle of a busy junction. This was pre mobile phones. I got out and ran into the building society. I asked if I could use their phone to get help. The woman told me to find a phone box! I went back to my car not knowing what to do. From nowhere the police arrived and very kindly pushed me and my car into a side street. They also arranged recovery. Every time I passed that building society for years I seethed with rage. They are no longer in business.

Against the girl who called me apple face in primary school!

I saved a girl from hanging in March. I damaged my back holding her up til someone came by to help me. Emotional wreck for weeks, set me so far behind in work, still catching up. Paid over £300 for physio and trauma counselling. I can't imagine how awful it would have been if she'd not survived but right now (maybe a stage in the processing of the event) I really bloody resent her and her family. How awful is that!

My sister - was signed off for work for a month due to work related stress and severe UTIs. As a single parent was very worried about the outcome and paying my mortgage. Never heard from her to ask if I was OK. Decided to stop being the one who always made contact, that was 3 years ago.

My Gran always hated Shirley Bassey because her DH once dated someone called Shirley!

Not mine but my mother. She bitterly hated one of the (two) shopkeepers in our village. Said this woman cut her bacon too thin in 1976. She actually said the word bitch as this Womans coffin passed through our village two years ago.

I truly wish I could move on from the GP who prescribed me the antipsychotic that injured me permanently, but when you are living with it daily as a constant reminder and worry, it's not that easy unfortunately 😔

I once had an appalling customer service experience with Kurt Geiger shoes - about 23 years ago! - and I haven’t bought a pair since. Never will.

The directors of my last company. Walkers, all nasty little walkers with god complexes. So glad I don't work there anymore. Whenever I drive past the offices I mutter walkers under my breath while wishing every misery possible on them.
