Hoping to cheer myself up as had a crap week!

So I'll start...

This week so far I got called a fing c**t, had a chair thrown at me, had a book thrown at me and been spat at.

Any guesses what I do for a living?

Prison is correct, but not Wandsworth ...

Today I made someone's baby cry, and their parents thanked me and offered me a cup of tea.

This week I've been pooped on, vomited on, and bled on at work. I often hear people screaming and crying, and finally, I get lots of opportunity to practice my catching skills.

Can anybody guess!?

Midwife?

I'm part of the woke, liberal, elite, "blob" that "wokes from home" on our Pelotons while trying to scupper the will of our elected representatives.

are you a journalist or a human rights lawyer

This week I have been to court, hospital, 1 house that was an absolute health hazard and been to 4 different schools...only been sworn at twice.

Social Worker (may or not sound very familiar...🙄😏)

Pretty much work, eat and sleep, no booze, occasionally I play ping pong which is tricky when the whole room is moving up and down several meters at a time.

On a Ship or oil platform ( do they move?)

moggerhanger · 17/01/2024 22:02

I tell people information they don't want to hear, and tell them to spend money they don't have, on things they don't think are going to happen.

clareykb · 17/01/2024 22:02

Yup @SiobhanSharpe and others Social Worker like it most days!

Saschka · 17/01/2024 22:02

It's always the same excuse to avoid getting fines. "I definitely returned them"
