To ask what you wouldn't want your work colleagues finding out about you (light hearted)

[Watchthecup]

I would hate it if my work colleagues knew I collected stamps. :D :D

I don't collect, collect them. I bought a pack of mixed used stamps a few years ago to do an art project and then realised how amazing they were. So I occassionally browse for unusual/nice ones in ebay and the like. I don't know anything about them but my little stamp albums make me happy. :D :D

That behind the dye, my hair is really grey.

That I once rinsed out my knickers and dried them in the staffroom microwave.

Ooh good thread idea!

• That I peruse mumsnet!
• That I desperately want a baby
• That I want to leave my job
• That my husband is a pretty geeky and plays geeky computer games (I dont mind but dont really share this with people)

There will be loads more

The state of my spare room.

Great thread.

That I am simultaneously trying for a promotion and a baby.

That i am on here lol

@DaveCoachesgavemetheclap everything about your post me actually lol!! .... including your name - BRILLIANT!!

That I think my place of work is filthy.

That I think some of them are crap at their jobs, and others are self promoting wankers

That I'm actually quite a nice person really.

That I used to be technically homeless and I lived at the ymca.
I'm university educated and have a 'very important job' so I think people think I'm middle class and well educated, not that I've dragged myself up by my finger nails

I work with dh running our own business. I wouldn’t want him to know that sometimes when he is out during the day I go to bed and have a secret siesta!

That I cuss like a trooper in private.

Also that I post here.

That I'm only there for the money. They think I'm really nice and helpful and passionate about my job. I'm not really it's just a way to get promotion (I am nice but I'm extra nice at work!)

My sex life. I think they’d be very shocked!

That I’m drowning in debt.

That I’m a member of the Conservative Party.

(I joined in March 2019 - specifically to vote against Johnson as it was obvious the leadership was going to change. But I’d rather keep it quiet - especially as my boss is a long-standing member of the Labour Party with a SIL who is a Labour MP)

That I think my boss can be a bully and am marking time until my contract ends in December. The kind of person who fairly regularly tries to blame others for her own lack of organisation, or tell them that she has already given them something (while rolling her eyes) though she has done no such a thing .

That I'm not in it for the long haul, just gaining experience in a different field prior to relocating.

That I actually can’t stand most of them.

@ClemDanFango are you seeking help with that? It's very damaging to mental health to bottle up debt issues.

That I lived in a caravan for nearly a year when DH was made redundant.

That I have shitloads of debt.

That I know the reason why a colleague was unexpectedly seconded to a very distant office...and that she was telling the truth.

My sex life.
And the fact that I am leaving current job is because my current boss is an absolute nightmare.

That my job is piss easy and I'm bored half the time
