To be mortified I just shouted 'fuck off you cunt' at my boss.

Bad day, terrible even. Was in a foul mood walking home from work. Crossing road at a T junction with my head down and a car beeped at me as it turned in to the minor road.
Assuming it was an impatient driver who honked at me to get out of the way, I looked up and shouted at the top of my voice 'FUCK OFF YOU CUNT!'
As the last word left my mouth I realised it was my boss and he was pipping his horn and waving to say hello. His window was down so I've no doubt he heard what I said.
We both looked at each other in horror as he drove off.
Shit, shit, shit.
It'll be ok, right?

Your boss is a class act, OP.

That's great, OP. Glad your boss is normal Grin

hungryhippo90 · 01/10/2018 12:00

I just want to add, OP you’re so bloody lucky your boss isn’t a MNetter. Fucking hell, you’d be hung drawn and quartered!!

GinUnicorn · 01/10/2018 13:02

Fantastic news OP! Wine

Calls boss a cunt....promotion is on the cards.

Absolute legendary post. I love you OP

itchybumhole · 01/10/2018 13:20

Aghh, he did hear exactly what I said. He told my manager that I called him a cunt at the weekend.

Well, he can't do anything to you. And he can't tell you off or anything at work since it's an outside of work incident that has no bearing on your job.

But he can gossip about it. At least that's all he's doing it; having a bit of a joke about it.

bobstersmum · 01/10/2018 13:26

Only just seen this thread but it has made me laugh! I hope all is OK though!

UpstartCrow · 01/10/2018 13:28

OP, you are a legend Grin Star

showmeahero · 01/10/2018 13:32

Hahaha oh OP, this has just made me LOL 😂

itchybumhole · 01/10/2018 13:42

Manager called me 'potty mouth' and laughed. I said something like ' Oh no, who've you been talking to?'
He said not to worry, boss thought it was amusing.

Sounds like your boss is a very decent toe who realised that you’d never react like that unless something was very wrong Flowers

ThanksItHasPockets · 01/10/2018 13:55

Toe?! Type!!!

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 01/10/2018 13:57

Oh I'm glad they all took it in good part and that your worry was for nothing after all. Phew!

Did you explain why you were in a bad way?

itchybumhole · 01/10/2018 14:05

I mentioned this morning to the boss that I'd had some bad news about a family member and was struggling to hold it together when he beeped at me.
I think that might be why I got a cup of coffee.

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 01/10/2018 14:07

Awww, that's nice of him :)

fieryginger · 01/10/2018 14:12

Well all's well that ends well AND it was really funny 😂 you'll laugh about this one day. Glad your boss isn't a knob and bought you a coffee. I like him 😂

TatianaLarina · 01/10/2018 14:35

Aghh, he did hear exactly what I said. He told my manager that I called him a cunt at the weekend.

Told you. He’s obviously a good guy he’s dealt with it really well.

AGHHHH · 01/10/2018 14:43

Aww that's nice.

I might call my boss a cunt and see if I get a free coffee!

KathDayKnight50 · 01/10/2018 15:03

Grin

So THIS is why I've never been promoted. I've been too bloody nice, I have!

KathDayKnight50 · 01/10/2018 15:06

They really need to update that book, "How to Win Friends & Influence People" with a fresh chapter on "Make the Boss your Bitch!"

TinyLittleTextMessage · 01/10/2018 15:10

Its one way to make yourself stand out from the crowd! I may try it myself.
Glad it's worked out OK.
