What phrase do you hear ALL THE TIME during your working day, that makes you want to scream?!

[Ilovemychocolate]

So I’m a childminder.
Whilst out with the kids (presently four 2 year olds) I hear “you’ve got your hands full” multiple times a day!
Over and over again, and it’s SO hard to react with a smile sometimes! (But I do obviously)
When I worked in shops it was “printed it this morning!” if someone handed me a fresh note.
So what do you hear constantly whilst working, that makes you scream inside?!

No she sounds brilliant.

educating people whilst getting them drinks/food! Good on her!!

Dentist?

'The art of the possible'

I work in a local authority ffs.

That's disgusting, what do you say?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

your self restraint is top notch!!

Of course it’s always a bloody man 🙄 always laughs far too much at his own wit as well. I can’t even be arsed to pretend to find these dorks remotely funny.

Its so funny you can guess most people's jobs from these phrases without even being told where they work

🤣🤣🤣 so true

“I’ve just come to collect a prescription…”

In a pharmacy, this is a bit like telling an Asda worker you’ve come to buy groceries.

No, people behave for the dentist! I would guess Hygienist

'Has someone done a poo?'
Followed by them walking round sniffing out the culprit

I need a new job

I speak for all women please do say this

You definitely work in a bank don't you?

Are you a dentist?

God yes!

Just a gentle reminder to do xxx. Gaaah

Why do people need gently reminding?

Also hope you are well, when the person likely doesn't actually hope I'm well.

😂how did you guess

No it's not.

you could be there to..

buy over the counter medication
havd a test of some kind
ask the pharmacist something

what would you rather people do/say? Just state their name & address & expect you to get their prescription?

"We are just waiting for approved wording for customers".

In the meantime I'm using my words like a big girl and telling then about the thing (that is already happening) without any drama.

How much do you charge?

What's your availability?

Do you do...?

Use the fucking booking app! I pay loads of money every month for a booking system and website with everything on there but clients still expect to be spoon fed the information. I get messages through Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, TikTok and text messages so its just not possible to keep up with it all. I love my job but hate the admin.

I hope it's childcare not a nursing home!

I have to gently remind people quite a lot.

The alternative wording being Why haven’t you fucking done this, I have asked you 3 times.

‘Can I get…..’ when people order in a cafe!

Sainsbury's?

100 percent
when they mean Yes

Ugh, my sister uses this when discussing her company's business model.
