As yet, still waiting for B to pay the remaining £11.

Start invoicing her with interest!

SchadenfreudePersonified · 14/10/2019 14:03

I love MN Cheeky Fuckers . . .

They are the Gift That Keeps On Giving . . .

She will try to order on Friday.

Obviously you will tell her to bugger off.

There is a minuscule chance that she will then get her purse out. As she wafts away the moths, blinking in the unaccustomed light and flying clumsily into filing cabinets etc poor things, and hands you her actual cash for this Friday's lunch, you can stick it in your purse saying "Cheers - that brings your debt down to £5.50. (or whatever). When that's paid off and you have cash for your sandwich, then you can order lunch again - but as with the others, it's a pay first eat later arrangement now. Your paying at the end of the month just doesn't work for me . . . "

This person sounds like an utter bellend

Lulualla · 14/10/2019 14:04

I can't believe this is onto a second thread. How hard is it for someone to just pay the £35 they owe! She likes to make life difficult clearly.

Saddler · 14/10/2019 14:05

Tell her to pay you up to date and up front for Friday as you say. If she doesn't make sure you stand by what you're saying and don't let her order under any circumstances

MadameButterface · 14/10/2019 14:05

Jigsaws

😂😂😂👌🏻

Agree

harriethoyle · 14/10/2019 14:05

Chong a dong has made me roar...

earlynightneeded · 14/10/2019 14:06

I've followed the old thread from day one. And I'm such a sado that this has made my whole weekend 😂😂 it's about as exciting as my life gets.

Cheeky bitch. I'd just never let her order again whether she pays up on time or not. Tell her to bring in a poxy sandwich!!!

Whoops75 · 14/10/2019 14:06

Yay thread 2

I bloody knew she would pull some crap like this. I’m a bit mortified for her!
Full payment in advance or she can’t order.

Wonderland18 · 14/10/2019 14:07

Glad you got some cash back! Finally!

MadameButterface · 14/10/2019 14:07

Hope op is properly going to credit where she got the side splitting genius turn of phrase in the thread title from.....

Honeyroar · 14/10/2019 14:08

How about doing the lunch club today while she's not there!

Bunnyfuller · 14/10/2019 14:09

Sounds like B has Dong for lunch on Friday.

Does she like fizzy drinks?

(It’s my old lady had a baby withering womb getting me confused.

Where’s that nice nurse on the other thread?

tempnamechange98765 · 14/10/2019 14:09

She clearly has a bee in her bonnet about you getting this money before you "need it" (which is wrong!) and is making a point. What a knob!

DarlingNikita · 14/10/2019 14:11

She's a twat paying £24 and leaving you short.
I would take great pleasure in saying in front of everyone that on official HR advice, the lunch arrangement has to stop, because of HER actions.

WhatTiggersDoBest · 14/10/2019 14:12

I think when she gives you the £11 it necessitates a victory dance after all this nonsense.

StroppyWoman · 14/10/2019 14:17

The barefaced cheek of only paying £24!

crochetmonkey74 · 14/10/2019 14:18

what does the chong a dong thing mean? I think I missed it on the other thread (over invested)

Windydaysuponus · 14/10/2019 14:19

I am betting cakes for all that her resignation is on a desk by Friday....
Obviously I expect the cash for the cakes up front.....

ohfourfoxache · 14/10/2019 14:22

I wouldn’t include her in any future lunch orders on principle. What a fucking nerve Shock

Sagradafamiliar · 14/10/2019 14:24

Chuck them some salad for their lunch from now on. Wet lettuce Fridays.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 14/10/2019 14:24

Shamelessly placemarking
What is this delicious lunch that costs £5.20 after a discount?

SerendipityJane · 14/10/2019 14:25

.

GreenFingersWouldBeHandy · 14/10/2019 14:26

She's making herself look like even more of a twat for not paying you the full amount; that's just insulting! And bizarre. Staying tuned for when she's back in the office tomorrow...

Sagradafamiliar · 14/10/2019 14:28

Now then jigsaw don't piss on everyone's chips. They were very expensive, including the discount.
