To laugh at women that don't work but........

To laugh at women that don't work but rush to the school gates 10 mins after the bell and usually rushing in at school finishing time rambling on about how busy they are and there is not enough time in the day.

I only work 16 hours a week and still manage to get everything done and a meal on the table.

So the question is ''Are people that work more organized?''

Only read the last few posts as this thread is really boring and silly.

I work 84 hours a week as a pole dancer.

No wonder ds is fostered out

JamieLeeCurtis · 28/01/2011 17:56

Aha - but that's where you are wrong matchbox. I've had a fine old time.

UnlikelyAmazonian · 28/01/2011 17:56

you're a right hoot matchbox! bet you're a barrel of laughs in rl. I really want to meet you.

conniedescending · 28/01/2011 17:57

well I judge working and non working parents who are late to pick up from school

not acceptable and always the same ones strangely

at my children's school the worst culprits are

a) corporate mum - navy suit, immaculate hair, v high heels and

b) on benefits mum - tracksuit tucked into fake uggs, once saw her fall over drunk in The Spar

People who are judgy are very necessary to keep the world clock ticking down to minus ten.

toeragsnotriches · 28/01/2011 18:00

What's your 16 hour a week job OP? School drop off/pick up observer?

Equipment: stopwatch, clip board, pencil and class register of parents' occupations.

I'm surprised someone as busy as you notices the other parents!

YABU.

TrollyMcTrollPants · 28/01/2011 18:00

I don't think anyone has wasted time. We have had coffee and Baroque has made shortbread.

Also I was deliberately late picking up DS from school and strolled in singing "TrollyMcTrollPants" really loudly just in case OP needed some extra Jolly in her day.

JamieLeeCurtis · 28/01/2011 18:01

also, we've had a laugh. I feel we've all bonded in some way.

maxybrown · 28/01/2011 18:03

YOU also wasted time matchbox I might add.

tethersend · 28/01/2011 18:04

"cant believe you all wasted so much time on this thread."

Really?

Have you ever been on MN before? I thought wasting time was the point, no?

I'm just gutted no-one got my incredibly witty south London joke. (FACKED/FACT- Geddit?)

matchbox20 · 28/01/2011 18:05

I have not wasted my time I have enjoyed it.

I even loaded the washing machine in my 10 min time schedule.

JamieLeeCurtis · 28/01/2011 18:05

I got it tether.

Sorry, did not respond. It was in fact the funniest joke I have heard in a long time and I pissed myself laughing and had to go away for a clean-up

tethersend · 28/01/2011 18:06

Thanks Jamie Smile

sevendwarves · 28/01/2011 18:06

I haven't read the last few pages but let me just check.

So matchbox you're judging insulting SAHM's, WOHM's (unless they work precisely 16 hours per week term-time only) and people with SN.

Why stop there? Perhaps you'd like to insult single mothers, FF's and disabled people while you're at it?

FWIW do you have to tell your friends you got over 300 posts or show them this thread. I sincerely hope for your sake they're all up their own arses as much as you are! Or are they the sort of arrogant fuckwits that will find you oh so amusing?

tethersend · 28/01/2011 18:07

I think they're the sort of people who don't exist, seven.

matchbox20 · 28/01/2011 18:08

I will insult who I want everyone else does on mumsnet.

As I said before I am no ruder that lots of people on here.

I believe that is what mumsnet is for to be rude and nasty, I am just joining in.

onceamai · 28/01/2011 18:08

Have read the first and last page. I did 8 years as a SAHM, did two years part-time and they were the hardest two years of my life. Went full time in 2006 - know what - I think working full time is easier than being a SAHM and definitely easier than being part time. Blush I did love my years as a SAHM though and will add that the youngest was nearly 7 when I went full time so I didn't do the HARD HARD YARDS that I know a lot of full time working mums do.

Oh yes, in case you are wondering, the DS has been late for school twice and the DD once (they're now 16 and 12). We overslept yesterday until 7.58. We all got to work/school on time - left chaos behind thought Grin.

wukter · 28/01/2011 18:12

Oh matchbox dear. If only you were half as clever as you think you are, because your last post is a little dim.

(a little = polite turn of phrase for unfortunate truth)

sevendwarves · 28/01/2011 18:12

"As I said before I am no ruder that lots of people on here."

That's the funniest thing I've read in ages!

BaroqueAroundTheClock · 28/01/2011 18:18

I hope as well as loading the washing machine you scrubbed the mattress protector, and the floor, and the chair, and ironed the 5 sets of clothes your DS used just in one day yesterday........

tethersend · 28/01/2011 18:18

'Joining in' by starting a thread in AIBU for a bet with imaginary friends.

It's the best way.

slightlymad72 · 28/01/2011 18:20

AIBU to laugh at women who believe themselves to be superior to everyone else and prove themselves to be ignorant scum who you pray will one day be taught the errors of their ways.

matchbox20 · 28/01/2011 18:20

Imaginary lol

Three of them are on here..........

but which three ha ha

wukter · 28/01/2011 18:20

I admit it.
I hold my hands up.

My last post was very very rude. Sorry.

That's another feature of MN. When someone's wrong they admit it.
