If they said “its a pleasure to announce I’m leaving”

Slightly surprised at the comments. I would find it shockingly rude. Also unprofessional. And potentially hurtful to colleagues she is leaving behind.

Why are so obsessed with me?

It’s ok- OP was amazingly able to tell exactly which thread I was talking about and provide a speedy link to it despite not having a clue what I was talking about Wink

Bargebill19 · 14/07/2021 22:06

Ummm I’m not the op. @MotionActivatedDog

Bargebill19 · 14/07/2021 22:07

Oh bollocks. Sorry

MotionActivatedDog · 14/07/2021 22:07

I know- I was responding to you!

MotionActivatedDog · 14/07/2021 22:07

Xpost!

TopBlogger · 14/07/2021 22:08

Are you saying they are the same poster @MotionActivatedDog or have you made a mistake?

Bargebill19 · 14/07/2021 22:10

No it’s me. I made the classic mistake of not reading all the op posts and the thread had moved on a page.

Bargebill19 · 14/07/2021 22:12

@TopBlogger. But I’m still not the op.

TopBlogger · 14/07/2021 22:12

Sorry I was asking if Dog thought this OP and Whyyouso were the same poster

MotionActivatedDog · 14/07/2021 22:15

Yes I think it’s the same person.

I thought the same.

Depends on context and how it is said and the relationship they have with colleagues and/or management.

@Bluntness100

The truth is some workplaces are a pleasure to leave. And some workplaces habe some right arsehole colleagues so saying to them it’s a pleasure to leave would be one of life’s little joys. It’s the polite way to say “fuck you” on the way out.
I was leaving a job after being bulled unrelentingly by the Director and two other staff. I took great pleasure in telling the Director to fuck off in front of all the other staff at my leaving tea. Rude yes but it was worth it to see her face. I followed that up with a letter from my union threatening legal action. Revenge was very sweet.
HeyDemonsItsYaGirl · 14/07/2021 22:20

I'd be delighted to leave if I had a colleage as touchy as TomForddr.

FrangipaniDeLaSqueegeeMop · 14/07/2021 22:22

Would you like some smelling salts? You seem very easily shocked.

Oh the irony of the OP saying this to another poster 🤣🤣

NormanStangerson · 14/07/2021 22:24

I have no idea what is happening here. I love threads when the OP’s an arsehole though 😂

But presumably if they’re pleased to be leaving, they won’t give a shit? And you’d have to be pretty paranoid to be upset if a colleague said they were pleased to be leaving - why would you take it personally? Unless they said ‘I’m leaving because you’re a total bitch and you’re ruining my life’.

It was the second result on google Confused it wasn't hard to fine

I’m so confused as to why you are obsessed with saying this is me? I work from home for a start and not been inside an office since March 2020.

Would you find this rude? Colleague leaving?

Definitely you who posted this one.

Bargebill19 · 14/07/2021 22:46

Op. You’ve not been inside an office since March 2020. So how do know what was said as per your original post? If you weren’t there.
