Anyone remember the Flexi-time CF?

Thought I'd heard the last of her but unfortunately not. Colleague who left her job due to cheeky fuckery with her flexi-time for those of you who missed the first instalment.

I'm moving between fuming, embarrassed and incredulous at the moment. I've also laughed but I think that's shock more than anything Smile
DH and I were out for the afternoon at a Christmas market. Had a lovely day and stopped at an coffee shop with tables outside before coming home.
We'd been there about 10 minutes when I noticed a group of ladies in their 60's a few tables away and one of them was staring straight at me. I didn't recognise her and carried on with chatting with DH. I noticed her again when all her friends started turning round to have a look. I didn't know any of them.
I'm starting to think she may be someone I'd been in contact with in a work capacity as she is looking quite angry. As I said in the original thread I work with children/families and I have been approached by people previously who have been angry and upset. Only a couple of times though.
I continue to ignore it and we're getting ready to leave. DH goes inside to pay and use the loo and the minute he does this lady gets up and comes over, with her takeaway coffee cup in her hand. I can tell by her face it's not going to be a pleasant chat.
She asks if I'm pleased with myself and I say "I'm sorry, I don't know who you are". She says she's FTCF's mother and who do I think I am to refuse her daughter a reference! Do I realise I've ruined her career and I should be ashamed of myself. Everyone is looking now and I don't want to get into it so I just say she really doesn't have all the information.
She then takes the lid off her coffee and empties it into my fucking handbag on the table and walks off!!!!
I'm absolutely gobsmacked Shock
I'm home now and want to call FTCF and give her a mouthful but DH is trying to talk me out of it.
Maybe I should just have a large G&T Gin

Could the problem be that she lost her job and someone who never was her line manager wouldn't give her a reference?

Singlebutmarried · 17/12/2017 23:09

Bleemy blimey. I think KH needs to go have a word. And @about been where you are and ended up with no job (private sector) and the CF is still ducking working there.

I left because I couldn’t stand it.

Just wish that personnel in the private sector were as effective

NotACleverName · 17/12/2017 23:11

If Mommy wasn't the CF then KH definitely is. What a weirdo Hmm

Arkengarthdale · 17/12/2017 23:14

Wow this thread takes some unexpected turns! I'm agog!

Abouttoblow · 17/12/2017 23:15

I never thought this would happen but I actually think KH is the FTCF Shock

Jeez KHS are you my SIL as you sound like her and KHS is something she has a BIG problem with.

HidingBehindTheWallpaper · 17/12/2017 23:24

Bloody hell KH you chat some shit.
Peeps? Really? People dear, people.

Why should the op be worrying about people in the ‘kitchette’? The CF doesn’t work there any more.
CF was taking the piss. She was wanting to be paid for time when she wasn’t at work. Then she wanted the op to lie on a reference.

The eggnog is strong with this one.

Traffig · 17/12/2017 23:39

Aye! The nog do be over egged yrhengi < nods sagely back>

Abouttoblow · 17/12/2017 23:40

I'm a bit shellshocked to be honest.

Nothing worse than over-egged nog.

HidingBehindTheWallpaper · 18/12/2017 00:14

You could contact MNHQ, About if you feel that KHS is threatening to you in the real world.

KHS, what is your view on pouring coffee in someone handbag?

Twopeapods · 18/12/2017 00:28

What the duck KC
Shock

Whinesalot · 18/12/2017 00:28

What makes you think she is op? I hope you are just joking.

notapizzaeater · 18/12/2017 00:36

Hope it’s just someone fooling around.

Katyazamo · 18/12/2017 00:58

I'm gonna assume it's someone messing about? No one can really talk like that? Right?

HuskyMcClusky · 18/12/2017 01:16

I think the whole thread is a bit over-egged, tbh.

smashyourglasses · 18/12/2017 01:17

Christ what a nutter Shock

Motoko · 18/12/2017 02:14

Haha, anyone else imagining KH sitting with a crystal ball on the table in front of her?

Has someone been reading a bit too much Macbeth?

I think KH sounds either a bit unwell in the head or was very very drunk when posting last night. I guess we will find out which if the vitriol continues this morning.

Don't take it to heart though op.

bootygirl · 18/12/2017 07:42

These people do exist... I m working with a line manager who abuses clock & has accused me of offloading my work on others... basics to deflect their own misconduct... I will be fighting back but it's really upsetting..
So I feel for the op...

WeirdAndPissedOff · 18/12/2017 07:57

KH - what a weirdo! I'm glad you don't seem to be taking to heart at least, OP.
FWIW, we used to have an office snitch, and while she was never particularly popular, no one ever thought of "revenge" or any such - we just didn't share incriminating stuff with her. And by "snitch" we meant an actual snitch as well - "Bob ate his lunch at his desk today, I thought that wasn't allowed? And Sandra took a 5 minute personal phone call yesterday. And I added up the time Claire and Sue spent chatting this week, and it totals almost 20 minutes!! Shock"
If we'd had someone like FTCF, we'd be cheering on whoever finally got her to stop taking the piss.

And judging by the very rare almost unanimous YANBU, you can assume most others would feel the same.

MrsMotherHen · 18/12/2017 08:15

My word this thread gets stranger by the day! KH your nuts!
