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.

(Any time anyone says anything about their personal life/ something they've done/ an illness:)

Don't tell me, you've been there but ages ago/ have had that too but worse/ have done that but better!

This. A thousand times over 🤦🏽‍♀️

Cats1234567 · 20/03/2024 19:39

I think you are gorgeous! I fancy the pants of you, but I can’t have you, so I just admire you from afar 🩷

Fedup48 · 20/03/2024 19:41

Oh shut the hell up - you’ve droned on and on at least 5 times about the same non-issue. Maybe start dealing with the important stuff you absolute self-centered idiotic princess - get a fucking grip

fgscat · 20/03/2024 19:44

Although you are lovely, you are shit at explaining really quite simple things and thus over complicate and confuse people. Very strange how you ended up in a role supporting learning delivery staff when you can't deliver in a way that is easy to learn from.

Sparklesocks · 20/03/2024 19:47

Despite how busy you claim that you and your team are (so much so that you try delegate their work to others) it’s not really clear how. You seem to spend several meetings on a simple proposal/idea talking the hind legs off a donkey, asking for input from parties not involved, but never actually actioning anything. Maybe if you got on with things and stopped navel gazing so much then you wouldn’t feel so weighed down by your to to do list.

Also I helped out your team on that project after you practically begged me. I took on a large chunk of the grunt work because apparently they were all sooo stretched and stressed about it, but when I sat in your bank of desks they mostly gossiped and took long lunches. They were all relaxed and chatty, if they were all exhausted from their collective workload they certainly didn’t seem to be aware. Maybe they’re not as helpless as you think?

You’re a sexist dick and deserve to have been called out for sexual harassment! You waiting for each female colleague to be on their own in order to question them on if they had been the one to report you makes it so much worse! Saying the manager who spoke to you about it overreacted and anyone who had an issue should have come to you first is missing the point entirely! Backing female colleagues up against a wall, hugging them in spite of them saying no and asking them how often they masturbate (to name but a few events) is sexual harassment!

wow

Oh, and a more positive one from the same workplace - someone who actually DID say it!

Gob on a stick boss said very loudly to our lovely cleaner, “Haven’t you finished vacuuming that fucking floor yet? We’re trying to fucking work!” She started out apologetic, saying she’d been stopping and starting because the phones had been busy and she was worried about disturbing calls. He snapped, “Look, just get the fucking floor finished!”

Something in her must have snapped at this point, because she blurted out “I’m fucking trying to finish the fucking floor, but I can’t because the fucking phone won’t stop fucking ringing!”

The sight of the boss’s face at this little woman, who looked the epitome of someone’s sweet old granny, going all Roy Chubby Brown on him will live in my memory forever 😁

Wow! Well done that woman. Would have loved to be a witness!

FreddieMercurysCat · 20/03/2024 20:02

Do you know what you dramatic bitch, kindly fuck off because I really really don’t give a flying, flaming fuck in a rolling doughnut. Now kindly 0-1-2-1-do-1 you vacuous thief of oxygen & joy.

MyBrownEyedHandsomeBoy · 20/03/2024 20:06

It's after 5. I'm not getting paid now. I'm cooking tea. Stop fucking ringing me.

(But I'm still on probation so I bite my tongue and answer the phone like a twat) 😭

inabubble3 · 20/03/2024 20:07
  1. o do fuck off.
  2. i don’t want you to be my friend (when you feel like it and ignore me full stop the rest of the time). You should be my manager. Also stop being a different person depending on who’s around. Stop creating drama and trying to friend up/ flirt with your staff.
  3. Stop talking about people the minute they’re not there. We can all see it.
  4. Maybe if you trained and supported us we’d know what to do. A group chat is no way to learn a job. Don’t take the p*ss out of your inadequately managed and trained staff.
  5. Maybe just maybe if you treated your staff like people even some of the time you’d retain some of them 🤷‍♀️

Nursing by any chance??

Creatureofhabit87 · 20/03/2024 20:11

Why do you make that noise when you eat? It makes me want to punch you in the fucking face! Constantly slapping your chops together is getting on my tits!
and no everyone doesn’t fancy you… have you seen what you look like?!

bumblebee1000 · 20/03/2024 20:15

I am now retired but if ever saw her crossing a road I would hit the accelerator pedal...!!
You evil nasty incompetent vile useless bully !

Glitz1004 · 20/03/2024 20:17

Where do I start.......

You're not funny like you think you are. You're totally incompetent and if it weren't for me being so organised then so much shit would have hit the fan. You are rude, mean and I believe secretly misogynistic.
You do not safeguard like you should and don't take it seriously often victim blaming. Good job I do safeguard instead of you!
Also why do you salivate so much when you talk to me, it's gross and its also creepy when you talk and speak to the room but stare at me......

MrsWidgerysLodger · 20/03/2024 20:21

You may have been in marketing for 20 years but it doesn't mean you know it all. Your knowledge doesn't seem to have progressed at all in those 20 years and what worked then will not work now. The reason our last campaign was so successful is because I ran it whilst you were on holiday so please take your head out of your arse and stop thinking you're better than everyone else.

Glitz1004 · 20/03/2024 20:24

Oh this one is to a separate colleague from quite a few years ago.

You creep me the fuck out. I so wish unsolicited dick pics were illegal back then because I would have turned you in. So many times I made it clear we were friends and I liked someone else. I'm pretty convinced you also spiked my drink so you could come back to mine whilst your wife and newborn were at home (I'm pretty sure nothing happened but can't be 100% sure)

So glad I spoke to HR although he only got a 1 year freeze on promotion. I hope other women stay away from this low life.

flowertoday · 20/03/2024 20:30

Don't ask people to do things you wouldn't do yourself. This should be obvious, not just from a work point of view but from a decency/ human point of view.
You have destroyed a whole team, and now you work in another part of the same company. What made you do that ? Did you not think of the hurt and stress you have caused others, you could have ruined your colleague's career.
I don't trust you, what will you do next. I wish you would take yourself off elsewhere ( perhaps further up the ladder, anywhere) as I think you are very dangerous.

Bluegray2 · 20/03/2024 20:37

Stop rambling on and on you’re repeating yourself, we don’t need to hear this dribble………...to people who love the sound of their own voice and thinks everyone else does to

And also ….Get to the point for Christ sake!

Boomer84 · 20/03/2024 20:39

Bye bye bitch! You were lazy, entitled, incompetent and thick as fuck!

PauliesWalnuts · 20/03/2024 20:47

Stop fucking shoehorning how much you love Darren Hayes, Savage Garden, Erasure and Darius Fucking Danesh into every conversation and every meeting.

Stop going on every course the organisation offers just to swerve doing some actual work.

And I’m not your fucking mate.

Trinity69 · 20/03/2024 20:48

Phones work in such a way that you don’t need to shout to be heard and no, I don’t feel remotely sorry for you living rent free in your Mum’s house because she’s 96 and needs you to cook dinner and do some housework, you think she’s evil but I’ve seen no evidence of that….you however….

JerkintheMerkin · 20/03/2024 20:50

Your back issues never seems to interrupt your social life, only your working one. We can all see through it.

SarahsHoneydew · 20/03/2024 20:51

Yes, I know you hate your job, you’ve been telling me daily for 3 years whilst doing absolutely nothing about it. Here’s an idea, go find something else and let us have a moan free space in the job that we all actually enjoy

AdultFemaleWoman · 20/03/2024 20:54

You are on social media ALL FUCKING DAY. You take early shifts off sick because you can't handle the early shift work load, you basically cannot do the job you slid into because you thought it was easy. But it's not is it???

Watchthedoormat · 20/03/2024 20:54

Who the fuck do you think you are- looking down your nose at me?
Talking behind my back with your cronies saying I couldn't hack the job. You are nothing but a gobshite.
Who's the one still fucking standing when everybody else is either on the sick or making plans to leave.
Yes, ME.
It's the quiet ones you need to watch.
