My ex boss who was shagging company owner who thought none of us knew about the affair, but we all did because she told us in great detail. Bloody bitch who undermined everyone and slagged us all off. She lost three assistants in a year says it all

I work in media, at one newspaper I was at was a woman on the commercial side who was so rude, didn't acknowledge the 'little' people and if you held the door for her she just sailed through it with no acknowledgement, giggling and whispering about others during training. She well and truly thought her shit didn't stink. She was very pretty, and so got away with it as a lot of people seemed to lust after her, and I saw her be very charming to many, but she made me and others feel like crap. She was one of the reasons I left, she moved to another paper now and I hope we don't end up crossing paths again.

A customer said to me after serving her " I bet you wished you had paid more attention at school so you didn't have to do this job"

Noel Fielding - He's a nasty human

An ex friend’s devout, churchgoing mother. 94 years old and an utter cunt.

My FIL, he is a horrible racist old man who hates that he is just not relevant anymore. Was delighted when my DH didnt pass an exam to be promoted as he would have been a higher rank than the one FIL retired at. He refers to black people as "darkies" which I hate & frequently says nasty things about my English heritage (he's scottish) but when he found out that actually my family is from Germany he decided I was acceptable. He is forever going on about how rich they are, and they are very rich but through a mix of family money, excellent luck in the housing market and my MILs shrewd stock market workings.

I hate the man, I get a literal visceral reaction when I hear him speak. His whole tone if voice is always one of he knows more than you, even when it's in a subject i definitely know more about.

Now as we're not young, twenty somethings navigating our way through life & making mistakes along the way. But rather almost 40, good jobs and mostly have life under control he hates it as he has nothing to laud over us other than his money.

Vile vile man.

Another was in my BIL, text book narcissist and a racist to boot who taught his kids to be racist. No one shed a tear when he killed himself a few months back. He was a bully and a woman beater and hated that he had lost control of my sister and we found put afterwards he was a peodophile and about to be found out.

Ex best friend. Shagged my then husband behind my back while listening to me confide about about my marriage problems. Used me as childcare while she was supposed to be working, was really off shagging one of her clients.
Incredibly manipulative, selfish, arrogant attitude. Throwing herself at every man that looked at her then whining she was a 'victim' when they tried it on. Lied about EVERYTHING. In fact her ex husband once said to me 'How do you know when Ruth is lying? Her lips are moving.'
After she shagged my then husband she felt so guilty she moved away and in with the next bloke who looked at her while telling me 'you're not the victim in this, I am!' (Er...how does that work then?)
I really think there was something pathological going on. Never met anyone who thought so much of herself and denied any responsibility for anything.

My NDN bitch !!
She took a instant dislike to me when I moved in years ago mainly because when I first moved in I told her ds to not kick a ball on my car and walk into my garden past my window to collect said ball .
Anyway after that she actively encouraged her ds to torment me kicking the ball etc . I admit I reacted back by shouting at the bitch but of course that's what she wanted so I then ignored her , if she got her son to do anything I'd ignore , if she stared me out frequently when I was coming home I'd smile at her .
Her ds was/is evil he really loved the fact his mum was encouraging him and I know he made stuff up as sometimes when I'd walk down the street he'd stand staring at me I'd ignore by that point but then I'd see him walk back speak to his mum and she'd stare at me so he must of said I'd said something to him.
I'm not sure if she's just one of those parents who can't see what a twat her son is but she definitely had it in for me and definitely encouraged him.
Anyway like I said I smiled at her or if I did need to speak to her I was so nice. it worked she gave up and her ds grew up .
Her son a couple of years ago police came for him sirens blazing etc was great wiped the smirk of his face.
I see her in the garden during lockdown looking sad , do I feel sorry for her no. !!
That was quite therapeutic. Grin

Sharron Davies. Appallingly rude. I was at a riding school I hadn't been to before. She was standing in the yard with two children. I said I was new there and where was the office, please? She looked me up and down, shrugged her shoulders and then completely ignored me. She does have a bad reputation here (Cotswolds) and I think she may have been miffed because I didn't recognise her.

IdblowJonSnow · 23/05/2020 13:40

My mum can be rather rude and entitled. She has some narc traits...
One of the last managers at my last place of work was so nasty and manipulative. Hated me because I could see right through her. She made my working life miserable and I left in the end. Cant help but think she must be very unhappy to behave like that!

Nosurveysneeded · 23/05/2020 13:41

Some of the people on here who are really horrible to others.

Not had it personally directed at me but some are quite nasty to others. MN's has opened a whole new world of rudeness

RingPiece · 23/05/2020 13:51

My soon-to-be-ex neighbours. On the surface, a respectable polite couple in their early 60s; in reality, a pair of absolute cunts.

They chuck their dirty toilet paper (shit-covered) and used waxy cotton buds out of their bathroom window into the garden of the neighbours on the other side. They've denied it. No one could make their shit covered toilet paper land in that particular spot unless they actually climbed over the wall and placed them there. Dirty cunts.

Since lockdown, we have their disposable masks and gloves strewn around the street blowing in the wind (especially today-very windy). I've watched them rip them off after they've come back from shopping, open their front door and hurl them over their shoulder without a glance as to where they've landed. Filthy cunts.

They tip their hoover contents out onto the pavement when their bin is but a metre away. They particularly like to do this when someone is walking past so it blows into their face. Reason? It's too dusty for their bin. One neighbour stuck a picture of Dusty Bin (3-2-1) with a red cross through it onto their bin. It's still there. It's small but it's still there which is good. Ignorant cunts.

They shout and scream at each other throughout the night waking up half the street. Noisy cunts.

A new neighbour was moving in opposite and unloading a small van. The woman approached her and just said, 'Fuck off. We live here.' and went back inside her house slamming the door behind her.

They are cunts. They are moving soon. Good luck if they choose to live next door to you. We've heard they've set their sights on Bexley or Bromley. You have been warned.

I also used to work with someone who would put her cigarette butts into people's opened and unfinished cans of drink when she returned to the office after one of her many fag breaks. She 'just couldn't help it. Ha ha ha.'

Boireannachlaidir · 23/05/2020 13:54

Whilst Barbara does sound horrible @AgeLikeWine there's nothing she could have done to stop being menopausal so not sure why you mentioned that? It will happen to all of us women eventually.

whatshebininagain · 23/05/2020 13:58

My BIL's MIL. The type of nasty vindictive individual who'd never do someone a Good turn if she could do them a bad one. Thankfully we didn't have much to do with her apart from BIL''s kids' birthdays etc but when our paths did cross she was vile, lots of snide remarks about me being a "snob" because I was at Uni (which I paid for by also working almost full time). She hated DP as he was staying with BIL at the time and she'd wanted to move in with them after her 4th marriage broke up!

I think she'd been disappointed in life and took it out on anyone she perceived as better off than she was. She even told her own GD that staying on at school was a waste of time and she'd be better quitting and getting a job washing dishes, WTF?

I always said she'd poison herself with her own venom. She's now in a nursing home in her mid 60s with severe dementia. I'm sorry for BIL's wife and kids as she's still their mum/Grandma but not for the woman herself.

Karma.

ChipsyChopsy · 23/05/2020 14:01

I'm related to a few. Unfortunately I have a natural tendency to believe people are actually nice deep down. But I'm not sure how many times someone can show you what an utter bastard they are before they are no longer 'in a bad place' and become 'bad person'.

Ginfordinner · 23/05/2020 14:03

Geoffrey Boycott. He is a very rude, arrogant man who treats everyone else like his servant. He has a bad press anyway, but in RL he really is rude and arrogant.

UrbanHarridan · 23/05/2020 14:23

The ex partner of a friend, is the most vile, misogynistic, spiteful person I‘ve ever had the misfortune to meet. The sort when you’re first introduced your spidey sense tells you “this one’s not right, stay away from them”. I’ve seen him systematically bully and belittle everyone around him but surprising, they let him????!!! I refused to be bullied, openly challenged him and paid for it, he tried to sully my name, spread rumours, made me feel so uncomfortable at events we were both attending I’d have to leave. Never have I met someone who made my skin crawl and feel so horrible, I’ve wanted to run from their presence. I pray I never have to cross paths with him again.

cologne4711 · 23/05/2020 14:34

Blimey Burleybob! Murdering your secretary takes "rudeness" to a bit of a new level.

Even if a woman is menopausal they can act in a professional way in the workplace. I don't think the fact she was menopausal was relevant actualy, she just sounds horrible.

Two female lawyers that I have had the misfortune of working with

I think lawyers are right up there with bullying work colleagues. Not sure why - I once did a course where everyone did the Myers Briggs thing, and there was a wide range of personality types, but it certainly does appear to attract some really horrible people. I think it's stressful and stress makes people do things they might not be very proud of on occasion but that is different from being horrible day in day out. I've worked with for and with some pretty horrible lawyers. I don't think any of them are doing time though!

Quite glad to hear Sharron Davies is obnoxious as I think she's a rubbish TV presenter! I've no idea why they get her to do painfully stilted interviews at swimming meets.

My aunt. She’s a cunt.

My sympathy, I have one too.

SiliconHeaven · 23/05/2020 14:38

My grandmother. I believe she was a genuine sociopath. Completely self centred and lacking in empathy. Gave my poor grandfather an awful life. I think it was only him that stopped her from being a serial killer. She did manage to kill my mum prematurely though.
Died a couple of years ago aged 99 from Alzheimer’s. The staff in the nursing home used to say ‘ah, bless her’ and it made my blood boil.

CocoCorona · 23/05/2020 14:45

2 people.

First is my brother who is a narcissistic shit. A real charmer infront of other people but a complete and utter evil piece of work if you know him well. He’s a serial cheat too but covers it with pretending to be religious.

Second is someone I work with. This one is a complete loud mouth and text book obnoxious. She blamed all Chinese people for the virus, she hates brown people, black people, Muslims, Jews..basically anyone who isn’t her. She makes issues over small things and starts rolling her head and eyes and convulsing like the world will end if something doesn’t go her way. Horrible woman.

ComputerNikki · 23/05/2020 14:45

My former boss. She used to make very snide remarks:

  • ‘Breaks aren’t compulsory you know’.
  • Remarked to a colleague after I’d gone home after finding out my father had unexpectedly died - ‘Well, we’d all like to go home wouldn’t we?’
  • When leaving (at my finish time, I worked part-time) - Don’t worry about us, you go ahead, we’ll all carry on’.
  • ‘Why can’t you move your DC’s to a school nearer work?’ (I lived 20 miles away and she’d employed me knowing that). She changed her tune when she had a DC though.

Bitch.

@Bergamot17 I thought I was reading about my own mother!

blueglassandfreesias · 23/05/2020 15:03

A woman who ran the nursery I worked at in my early twenties. She bullied me until I became quite ill, threw things at me, trapped me in dark rooms, ignored me and then gave me a bad reference.
I went to university and got a degree and am now in a well paid career. I still see her around town sometimes and she looks as miserable as ever.
