She sacked me after i asked her for a pay rise - was on £5k and had worked for her for 2 and half years although part of it was on a training scheme. She has now sent a friendship request 10 years later..

Am tempted to add her just to be nosey on her profile but dont really want to speak to her as she shat on me and my sister who also worked for her. She has now emplyed another youngster to shit on.

YANBU, just don't bother to reply she sounds horrid

Ah the politics of Facebook. I am the same- do I add people I hate could love a bit more so I can have a nosey?? I would say yes.I think you can edit it so that she can only see certain bits of your profile if needs be. How very odd that she is looking for you 10 years later though

perhaps she's found her conscience.

MamaMaiasaura · 02/11/2008 22:44

I had to phgone my sister as couldnt believe it. Am pmsl. Wont reply to her request (if at all) tonight... She was a complete cow. I have however moved nearer to her and wonder if she has seen me up the school.... that could be it.

well i'm sure it would be very satisfying to ignore her request. i think i might choose that route over the nosey one. or add her to your limited profile list so she can't see anything.

MamaMaiasaura · 03/11/2008 21:36

Have thought about it and will not be adding her. Was 12 years ago but she used to reduce me to tears, expect me to work very long hours for very little pay and was a complete cow.

She sounds charming. I wouldn't add her.
If you want to nosey, she might have an open profile that can be seen by people she has friend-requested. You could always have a neb and then refuse.

I wouldn't add her, she sounds charming! However as SmallClanger says, take a nose at her profile, I bet you can see it as she's requested you as her friend.

MamaMaiasaura · 03/11/2008 22:14

tried that - she did limited profile so i dont even get a good nose. tbh though i dont think i care

I have felt less awkward about ignoring certain friend requests by just sending back a polite friendly but SHORT message.

They usually leave it at that, but you haven't been rude.
