Things people are pissed off at you about that you actually have nothing to do with.

[Beeinthecity]

I currently have a neighbour who is pissed off at me because our joint landlord is doing work on the neighbouring empty flat which involves drilling into her wall and I didn't tell her.

I didn't know! Just as she didn't because the empty flat is nothing to do with me.

Capped off with her telling me it was a good job they were doing it today or she wouldn't have been impressed if it carries on tomorrow when she is on nights.

Anyone else deal with people like this.

sorry I didn't see your later post

so you explained you don't own the place and she carried on having a go? I would have asked if she had a fall or something.

next time ask her "are you on glue?"

My DH is a painter and decorator, priced up job for a woman for labour only as she insisted she wanted to choose and buy her own colour paint, DH painted the garage door in the paint which he had no input at all choosing as she did her nut with him because she did not like the colour

My School friend's dad was POWM and a teacher so he told all his pupils about how unfairly I'd treated his daughter because I'd got into her first choice university and she hadn't when she was much cleverer than me.

Different subjects and different years (I had a gap year) and same A level grades but you know... clearly my fault.

My neighbour is really pissed off with me.

I bought a newish car last year and have only just got rid of my old one. Neighbour moaned about old car as it apparently made the road look untidy, so I didn’t rush to sort it out.

Eventually sold it to one of those “cash for scrap” people from the local paper. He turned up, gave me £220 and took all keys and papers and drove it away. All good.

Except for some inexplicable reason he drove the car away 12 doors down the road, parked it outside neighbour’s house and just dumped it there! This was on 5 January and he hasn’t been seen since! Neighbour will not believe I no longer own the car and thinks I’m playing games to piss her off. I’ve received 6 “polite notices” and two voicemails and now I’m being threatened with legal action . Scrap dealer’s phone just goes to voicemail so I have no idea what will happen.

I am currently counselling a child whose divorced parents have refused to communicate with each other for the last three years. They won't even text one another. They will only pass messages back and forth via their 11 year old child, messages which range from passive aggressive to hostile and accusatory.

They're pissed off with me because the kid's still anxious

Neighbour complaining about "Your burglar alarm going off in the middle of the night and waking us up"
Of course we don't have one.
Another neighbour asking me to stop our ginger cat pooing in her garden,
We did have a cat, not ginger, and he (despite encouragement) never went outside.

Snowdrop I told her to take it up with the landlord not me.
She did and landlord was as baffled as me at her complaining about work man noise at 2 in the afternoon.

This is a funny thread,

Friend's DS was furious with her: "why do I have to go to the toilet EVERY day?"

Oh, and whenever a foreigner does anything bad here I must know them and be guilty by association. Any drunken or criminal Brit must be a relative or close friend. In fact, the only good thing about the UK is Mr Bean and Benny Hill, according to country 2.

Parents in my class are routinely furious with me because I can't find unnamed identical jumpers. Don't tell me it has 5-6 in the label. Being year 1, most of them do.

"when my DSis told my DNephew to brush his teeth he grumbled "I have to do everything round here!""

This has absolutely done me, hahahaha. :grin: :grin: :grin:

Well I ballsed up that formatting didn't I?

Neighbour knocking on my door at 5.00am to shout at me about the car blocking her in, I explained that it wasn't my car (I was parked in my space) and I didn't have any visitors, but she insisted that she didn't care and I needed to move it. I shut the door, put earplugs in and went back to bed

My ex boss was (and possibly still is) pissed off with me because he had a second extra marital affair, which destroyed his marriage.

He did not have an affair with me.

My son is pissed off at me because he burnt his own Minecraft house down by accident which in turn killed all his cattle.

We got the blame for the overflowing skip the previous owners of our house left behind.
I used to work in retail. Being constantly blamed for things that I had no control over was really soul destroying.
Oh, and it was my fault the snow on Sunday didn't last and it rained heavily. Sorry ds1.

People are currently cross with me because I caught them cheating at a pub quiz which had a really great prize which they accepted.

"when my DSis told my DNephew to brush his teeth he grumbled "I have to do everything round here!"

DS2 said almost exactly the same thing yesterday. Apparently no one else every does anything.

Not only that people come to me and expect me to know what they want

I don’t have a crystal ball and if I did I’d be getting saturdays numbers 😂

my husband is a tradesman. His boss gave him the phone number of a client who wanted a job done.
Husband said to the client 'I cannot start that at 3 in the afternoon as it will take 6 hours to complete'.

Client was furious and told husband it will only take 1 hour and that he needs to be better at his job. He called my husband all sorts of names.

Husband trained for 4 years and has been doing job for 5 years. I'm guessing the client is not trained as an electrician else he would be doing the job himself?
So man was pissed off as the work would take much longer than he thought!
(Husband did not call back)

I used to work for a Local Authority, I got blamed for:

Bins
Repairs - not being done
Travellers
Repairs - being done badly
Why someone else was given a Council House when it should have gone to her neighbour's daughter - a lovely girl
Potholes
Councillors X, Y, and Z for various reasons
Council Tax
Repairs - generally
Council Housing - generally

Today it was my fault DGS (4) couldn't remember the song he was taught in music and also rain in Scotland - we live in England - but Scottish Granny will get wet and I should know this and stop it apparently.

Teacher so any number of things are obviously my fault:

1. Any trust policy set by the executive team across our trust/ any school policy from our
2. The fact that homeqork wasn't done because they went to granny's the night before. Who cares they had a week?
3. That teenage girl is late for school because she is caking makeup on on the way. Obv my fault and i'm lying because she looked ok when she left the house. The slugs must have crawled onto her eyes.
4. My register being late on because the staff meeting overran so nobody was doing their register on time because we were in a meeting
5. Any government reform or curriculum change
6. Student social media is definitely my fault. Some parents love to know what we are doing about their child and another falling out online. If i point out that really 11pm at night is way outside my remit ans maybe it's worth parents monitoribg social media and phone use then apparently i'm unsupportive because 'well... what can i do really you know...' YES TAKE THEIR PHONES! What do you want me to do? Oh yes, investigate social media, tell staff to redesign seating plans, treat your child as a bullying victim when they are just as guilty of stirring gossip online
