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 I think they are a bunch of ignorant morons and I hate them all.
That they are as thick as pig shit. Each and every one of them and I have zero respect for any of them.
'Management' are a joke.

That important meeting in.my calendar for Wednesday mornings is my son's swimming lesson.

I make up the time elsewhere, before anyone starts!

What I wish they DIDN'T know is that I care about my job, so when they CBA yes I will end up doing it instead. Gah.

That I don't really like animals or see the point in pets. They all blab on for hours about theirs and I think they would see me as the devil if they knew the truth.

SpeckledyHen · 05/10/2019 18:01

That I’m a millionaire.

Rockbird · 05/10/2019 18:02

That I'm doing a psychology course (only OH knows about that), and part of it involves it's use in the workplace, so I know when management are bullshitting me.

Neverender · 05/10/2019 18:08

I find my job easy (like stupidly so) and get paid £60k+...I think they all think I'm on about £35k

ClemDanFango · 05/10/2019 18:30

Rainbowknickers · 05/10/2019 18:42

On an 8 hour shift I spend about two hours of that hiding in the lav
I used to sleep on the streets
I have debts
A huge clothes habit
I snogged my bestie on my 21st birthday
I’m not a huge fan of other people’s kids and think babies look like boiled frogs-I did point this out once and they all thought I was joking
I think the teens that hang around are nice kids once you take the time to speak to them
That my boss is a huge wanker
Our drivers are creepy
The dog once chewed the gusset off my pants-and they snapped on shift so I had to go knickerless for 9 hours

EddieVeddersfoxymop · 05/10/2019 18:48

That I'm not the outgoing, confident, cheery person they see daily. I'm so introverted, preferring my own company and that I go home totally "talked out" after being in the office. I'm very good at acting the part.
That....and my piercings that are not visible!

Oflawrence · 05/10/2019 18:51

That I can get a babysitter for the Christmas night out....but I dont want to!

chocafrolic · 05/10/2019 18:54

That I lost a good 7 years of my youth at raves and living a nocturnal life with all that that entails. I’m very respectable now 😁

Snoopdogsbitch · 05/10/2019 18:56

That I think that loads of them are shite at what they do- there are exceptions who are wonderful, but most of them are disgustingly average and sometimes downright terrible.

That I act all motivated in the meetings about the latest shmizzle then bin the resources and do what I've always done.
