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.

I can't moan about work but there is something.

Most of you are bullies.
Most of you are liars.
Most of you are entitled bitches.
Most of you overreact.
Most of you over exaggerate.
Most of you dont see that your the problem not your over half.
Most of you expect too much.
Most are drama queens.
Some need parenting classes.
And some stop using kids and babies as an excuse not to clean your home.
And stop using SEN as an excuse.
And some of you are controlling and somewhat abusive its not your other half its you.
Oh and no one has ever had to claim benefits or had a baby under 35 .
No surprise who this may be.

If you have to work 6 days in the office to get out of the house and away from your wife, you really need consider ending your relationship, not trying to gaslight me into thinking I should also be working 6 days a week. I already work a 50 hour week in 5 days - I refuse to do any more and actually quite like my husband!

Are you talking about us? 😭

Waitinggame42023 · 19/03/2024 17:23

I'm 12 weeks pregnant (which you're aware of) and am trying my hardest to balance work with my unpleasant symptoms.
I'm just about managing not to take time off, so the least you could do is give me clear fucking instructions about what tasks you want me to do and without moving the goalposts, as I don't have a crystal ball.

You could even try giving me some projects appropriate to the grade and field I was actually hired for, and let me crack the fuck on with it. But you know, maybe that's too wild.

Itsallfunngamesuntil · 19/03/2024 17:24

You effing two faced narcissistic lying tight- fisted manipulative areshole bitchface who also plays the victim mental health card so well. Every opinion is fine as long as it tallies with yours

Wouldnt trust you as far as I could throw you stupid lazy shortarse effer

NillyNoMates · 19/03/2024 17:25

You’re ruining people’s lives, you silver-spoon princess.

socks1107 · 19/03/2024 17:29

If you stopped micromanaging me and gave me some actual work, and stopped collecting and running around your 21 year old son ( also clearly micromanaged) you'd get your weekend back as rest and not be doing the whole teams work because your a control freak. I left that job after 12 months. It was sole destroying and she was an awful manager

Sharontheodopolodous · 19/03/2024 17:29

Your a top of the tree manager

So bloody manage-do your job

People walk all over you,your too busy bending over and sucking up to the top bods to notice

It's a piss take-half need sacking and the rest need to be listened to-we tell you what needs to get changed but you just walk off while we are halfway through

I told you that the work odd-ball is following women and girls home/acting Oddly round them/watching porn on his phone (even though that's a sackable offence with anyone else)

Stop laughing,you've had so many complaints and do something about it-he'll end up in prison

The teens that stand around chatting-get them to do some work instead of it falling on me and the other hard workers

Stop promoting your favourites-they are meant to be doing a job but they don't and you turn a blind eye while blaming us

Don't just give anyone a job because they are related to someone and then act surprised when they are lazy

Stop speaking to your non favourites like shit

And while we're at it-i start on time and i leave on time

Not half hour after my shift-not even 5 minutes

Bang on time,I'm off home and tough if you don't like it-calling me a liar about my health issues doesn't really lend itself to any goodwill from me

NotThisAgainSeriously · 19/03/2024 17:31

It’s not my fault you didn’t get the role and I did - it’s because you’re untrustworthy, sneaky, creepy and underhanded. You lie constantly and have been caught out so many times. You lack the discretion, integrity and professionalism for this role, which you’ve demonstrated over and over again. None of the senior leadership like or respect you - you don’t know it but you’re one incident away from a PIP. Your insincere and weird attempts to buddy up to me are cringe-worthy and embarrassing: we both know you’ve been told by all your managers you need to rehabilitate your relationship with me after all your BS when I first joined. It’s obvious you hate women, especially women senior to you and it clearly infuriates you that I’m on the leadership team and you’re not. I see you skulking about my LinkedIn profile because you still can’t believe I got this role, and I know you’ve told several people it’s only because I slept my way in to it. You should be so ashamed of how pathetic you are. You also look like a used condom when you wear that suit.

Puffalicious · 19/03/2024 17:33

You narcissistic cow. You have single-handedly worsened the experiences & life chances of so many children with your laziness & incompetence. You're only still here because you know how to work the system with your fantasy illnesses & made-up 'work stress'- you don't fucking know what stress is.

Everyone knows you're a fucking joke, but a dangerous individual so no-one tells you.

I know you're threatened by everyone who's good at their job: that's because you're a narc.

ohdamnitjanet · 19/03/2024 17:36

Dear trustees, please do fuck off and stop interfering in people trying to earn a living.

swimlyn · 19/03/2024 17:36

No, I'm not interested at all in last night's soaps, and by the way your smoke breaks mean you do ~15% less hours than everyone else on the team.

Suffolker · 19/03/2024 17:40

If you’re going to consistently be first to help yourself to the birthday treats, and go back for seconds (or thirds), at least have the good grace to bring in something for the team to share when it’s your birthday. It has been noted (repeatedly) but no one’s got the balls to say anything (including me)

CactusMactus · 19/03/2024 17:41

please stop pouting and flipping your hair about on zoom...

gavisconismyfriend · 19/03/2024 17:44

You’re an idle misogynistic prick. Take some fucking responsibility and do your bloody job, it’s not that hard. You’re an arrogant fucker, your female colleagues are not your unpaid admin assistants. You think you are superior to everyone else but actually no-one respects you and your self-aggrandising attitude just makes you look like an arse. Please leave!

fightingthedogforadonut · 19/03/2024 17:45

For the love of God, talk quieter!!

Elvis1956 · 19/03/2024 17:47

To 2 managers...both some time ago.

I don't care that you were sending emails at 1am...we lesser mortals don't have access to email outside of the office yet. And have you thought it's perhaps not a great idea to be sending emails at 1am, then getting to the office at 7 and expect me to already be there. Perhaps you need to look at your work life balance. Perhaps it's the reason why your partner left you. Oh and they will still make you redundant however hard you work....and they did.

Please please stop boasting how organized you are. Stop trying to micro manage the unimportant parts of this presentation, no one cares if the fucking background is blue or green I've changed it 5 times already. Actually understand the figures I've given you and realize that money is pissing out of the door. Learn how to do an attachment on an email it's not hard and I've shown you and 4 of my colleagues have shown you...every single day for 6months...we know you know and it's a power thing. Oh and stop shagging the other manager...it's been going on years and they've shagged every other manager in the office.

HateMyNewJobSoMuch · 19/03/2024 17:51

What the actual fuck is wrong with you?

Why do you pretend to be so professional and amicable when everyone knows you are an absolute NIGHTMARE to work with. So much so that people have been taken off of projects you work on because they simply can't tolerate you.

When I warned you a project was going to shit because the person in charge of it (your BFF) was waaaaaaaay out of their depth and unwilling to take my advice on board when I've worked in that specialism for over 20 years you laughed and said. "It will be fine". Then it wasn't and you have the NERVE to act all faux surprised and say it's all my fault? THEN you wonder why I'm not all smiley happy with you?

Also - note that people talk to each other. We all know what you are saying about us.

InSpainTheRain · 19/03/2024 17:54

Stop shouting into your headset and overplaying your role on every freaking call. There are hundreds of desks in the room, no one needs to be convinced how hard you work because we don't actually care. You don't sound clever, you sound screechy. For me the best 2 weeks at work last year were the ones you spent on leave.

greenleader · 19/03/2024 17:59

Stop wasting time and oxygen with vague platitudes about how we all need to work together to deal with this important problem. We know that; this is a fucking trouble shooting meeting! We are up to our arses in alligators and need alligator management ideas. If you have some then speak the fuck up, if not then fuck the fuck off.

Notateacheranymore · 19/03/2024 18:01

Thedogscollar · 19/03/2024 11:21

For Christ's sake shut the hell up I don't need a running commentary on everything you've done, about to do or have to do.
I've got my workload you've got yours just do it. I'm not interested😩

Do you and I work in the same office?!?!

ThereItIs1 · 19/03/2024 18:03

Please please PLEASE shut the fuck up, bugger off, and never acknowledge me again. You were demoted from this position because you were incompetent. It isn't MY fault that I've been given it, I do NOT need 'helpful pointers' from you. And NO ONE GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOUR FUCKING ENDLESS STORIES JUST GET TO THE POINT ALREADY. And I'll say 'oh my god' if I want to, Jesus doesn't give a shit.

(phew... thank you OP, that felt good 🤣)

ChaToilLeam · 19/03/2024 18:05

You are making no friends with the condescending way you talk to people or the constant flood of emails you copy everyone into and the trivial meetings you invite everyone to.

Plus you micromanage to a ridiculous extent and you are making yourself ill with all the extra unnecessary effort you go to.

Just STOP. But you won’t be told.
