To think in a professional situation this is the wrong way to phrase things

[Whyyouso]

Office meeting with all the managers. A chair is dirty person x goes to sit on and then says I will get a dirty bum. Aibu to think it’s a bit inappropriate in a professional setting.

@ThursdayWeld

People have bums. Even managers !!

No way! I don't believe that.

😁

🙄🙄

You'll like this op.

Dear me.
Don't ever come into a care or nursing environment.
Someone I look after told me today to shift my arse because he was going to shit himself....... In front of the manager too. We're all still alive.

I much prefer people in professional jobs to be able to have a joke and a laugh. Swearing, discrimination etc are bog no no’s but having a bit of a joke is fab. If you can’t laugh it’s a poor doo!!

Ha ha my boss told me on a call yesterday that he had a ‘bruised arse cheek!’ I didn’t flinch.

@Whyyouso , you really are very easily upset !

You should of taken a clean linen hanky out an d put it down on the chair for them

Good heavens - what is the world coming to?! Most people stop thinking bum is a rude word when they're about 6, OP.

The cheek of it

Next you'll be trying to tell us that they even have to use the 'potty'!

Dirty bum sounds like a mum talking about her baby who has a full nappy .

I can't imagine coming an adult saying it, dirty clothes /trousers make more sense. So slightly inappropriate in a work setting.

Bum is a very normal word here. Not just a word a mother would use for their baby.

Who always speaks factually correct?

I don't think anyone would think the persons skin was going to get dirty.

Please can you explain how it's inappropriate? Because I am genuinely post.

lost Not post

Yabu.

I would probably have said 'arse'

Well, I think it's rude to call the chair of the meeting 'dirty person x' for a start!

You need to ever so slowly unclutch your pearls. Your fingers will be cramping.

OP I have to ask - why were you in a meeting with all the managers? Were you the minute-taker or something? I don't mean to sound rude but you seem incredibly immature...

This can't be real surely. Bum isn't a rude word.

AHA. This would definitely be fine where I work but we discuss all manner of disgusting bodily functions in the office

totally unnecessary and wrong. Obviously the correct word to use under those circumstances is "arse" as any fule kno.

YABU. 😂😂

Get a grip OP it’s a complete nonissue

You've started quite a few odd threads this weekend, are you alright

"I'm afraid my rump may become soiled should I perch on this piece of furniture. Please, arrange it's cleaning forthwith" may have been better. suppose.

In the real world, nobody would care! Are you very new at your job?
