Something you'd love to say to that one person at work.

[32degrees]

Say it here, see if it helps.

I'll start: you dramatic entitled cow. I am sick to death of your bullshit. Stop threatening to quit, make my year and actually do it.

You have no idea how much damage you caused reporting me for 'arguing on the phone'. I was talking to colleagues who were agreeing with me! You totally misunderstood as they said at the time. I know you got pulled up for it but I no longer come into the office because of you. Not a good time for me either when my husband was undergoing cancer treatment. Thanks for that. .

the problem in our place is he had a job created for him. Management love him and can not see what resentment its caused. He now has people reporting onto him, never managed people before nor any experience in the role he is doing. To listen to him droning on as to how happy he has achieved so much in his career at the xmas part was sickening. Everyone outside our team seems to love him though

I really feel like I need to know more about this one!

Please.Stop.Talking

Heh, I was not on her team, but the same level managing a parallel team.

I had a nightmare staff member, and she was convinced it was because I couldn't manage properly. Imagine how I laughed when said nightmare was allocated to her team.....

In her defence, she did pop in to see me and admit that she too couldn't work out how to get rid of this person. Karma.

To all of them - Your sharing of disgusting videos on your phones and laughing about them and finding more people to show them to, including trying to show me, is the least funny thing ever, and it makes me want to hand my notice in. It is too much now.
😔

you have the personality and face of a cabbage

😂😂

I hope somebody uses that wonderful phrase quoted on MN a little while ago: "the IQ of a Jaffa Cake".

Time to fuck off and retire gracefully you fucking nasty old bitter bastards.

Do we work together?! 🤣

Exactly what I came on here to say! 😂

Listening to you droning on about your granddaughter bores me shitless.

I think I have too! 😂😂

Treat all your team the same and drop the Miss. Jean Brodie act with favouring your special 4 "girls"

Stop trying to take over my meetings. You are no longer in this position. You chose to move on. Move on.

“You no longer have the power to cause me pain.”
After a meeting they called to beat me down, but which I owned and spent 2.5 hours calmly listing their misdemeanours and demolishing their continued attempts to bully. They never bothered me again.

Dear Boss, please, will you stop interrupting me every hour to ask how I am getting on, and just let me get on with actually doing the work. And just because you thrive on pressure and like to do everything at the last minute, it doesn't mean the rest of us have to enable you.

Stop undermining us and taking all the credit for work we’ve all done. You really are a vomit inducing unbearable suck up. Oh and your hair is shit!!

Please stop eating crisps all day- you make as much noise as a horse eating an apple with every one. You're really not a bad person but the crisps start at 10 every day and as soon as I hear your bottom draw open I cringe in anticipation. Also please stop telling me you're putting on weight and don't know why because one day my self control will go and I will scream "Crisps, fucking crips"

Well
There We Are Then

Classic line from a Steve Bell cartoon of the Thatcher era, written on a blackboard behind her back, "Piss off and die". To be said to a particularly nasty bully of my acquaintance.

Hey boss, when I thanked you and said I’d learned so much from you a few weeks ago, I meant that I’d learned resilience. I’d learned it’s ok to cry when things get really bad. Learned to trust in my own instincts and know my own worth, even when I’m told almost every day that neither have any value. I’d learned that people who consistently ignore your boundaries will never respect you. That people who are scared to stand up to those higher than themselves will never protect those in their team. That those whose primary function is to ensure they look good will sacrifice you in a heartbeat. And that someone who puts rigid adherence to policy over compassion and common sense will never find a way to make the rules work for those in their team. I’d learned that no amount of love for my job or those I work with is worth being casually belittled and dismissed every day.

In short, you taught me how not to be a good boss. And I very much do thank you for that.

you are fucking stupid twat that is absolutely clueless and are causing problems rather than fixing them. You make stupid drastic decisions with no discussion with the experts who actually know what they are talking about.

The fact you have kids doesn’t mean you don’t have to do your job. Most of us have kids, everyone else does their work without constantly banging on about it.

“I ain’t Fick” really isn’t the sales pitch you think it is.
