@WhileMyMeringueGentlyWeeps

Jeez when the last colleague left my work I got a card for them that said Congratulations!
That’s nice dear.

Don’t get how it fits in with the OP seeing as the person hasn’t even left and will still be here until September.

Your op is barely a sentence and it does not include that information.

MaMelon · 14/07/2021 21:31

Oh well, that gives you plenty of time to build your ire at their rudeness to a right old froth.

Shock Jeez OP you really need to work on your people skills!
Would you like some smelling salts? You seem very easily shocked.

Generally it's funny but quite sad they feel that way although I guess most people look for alternative employment because they're happy in their job.

OP if it's you that's leaving, good luck in your new job. If it's not then if everyone at work is like you I'm not surprised they're leaving.

Grin you had a heart attack when your colleague said “dirty bum”

MaMelon · 14/07/2021 21:37

Not as easily shocked as you who finds something so innocuous ‘rude’.

MaMelon · 14/07/2021 21:37

Dirty bum?! I missed that post Grin

Bargebill19 · 14/07/2021 21:38

Now it makes sense. They whole heartedly wish they were going much earlier than September. And you op are jealous ?!

EspressoDoubleShot · 14/07/2021 21:38

How very droll, I like it

PearlNextDoor · 14/07/2021 21:39

@TheViewFromTheCheapSeats

I once got a leaving card saying ‘you’ve made the right decision for your colleagues and this company’ 😂
Another gem 😂

OP had another thread outraged that their colleague was so unprofessional for saying they wouldn’t sit on a dirty seat because they’d get a dirty bum.

Are you jealous she’s leaving ???? Last night you put a post up about your shitty management.

“MotionActivatedDog” can’t quote you but are you ok hun? You’re literally talking out of your bum on this one. I have no idea what thread you’re talking about never mind being the one who posted it.

TomForddr - if the above is true, are you sure that the workplace with real life colleagues is the place for you?

catfunk · 14/07/2021 21:44

Ha I'd think it was funny

I never posted that. You were the one that said you loved to sniff seats though. I distinctly remember you posting that.
