To be pissed off with my cleaner for buying me Anti-Wrinkle cream?

[hf128219]

Yes, anti-wrinkle cream for Christmas. Is she trying to tell me something?

Now, are you sure you pay her...I thought the MOD payed her.

LS - where did you get that idea?

Is it the chef who is paid for by your DH's employer ?

Please keep up with the latest MOD news if you wan't to contribute.

lol, I'm lost

A spa break seems extravagant to me- and I'd feel a bit lost on my own in a hotel, if it were me. Some really lovely smellies would be nice.

What about a couple of joints?

Don't be pissed off hf, I think she was probably trying to pick something that she maybe sees as a luxury, which in a way makes it a very special gift. She was maybe seeing it as a bit of pampering for you, which may in her world, be something she values.

No she is not, IMO, trying to tell you something, except that maybe she respects you and values her role in your life.

I lolled at your Book stacking thread. I do some cleaning and am a compulsive pile straightener.

Thank you - that is a lovely post. The towers are still here!

By joints, I take it you mean joints of meat.

I love this op, - revenge of the cleaner for having to put her hands down your loo all year!

don't be pissed off!

Anti wrinkle cream is to STOP YOU GETTING WRINKLES IN THE FIRST PLACE, not because you're a wrinkled old crone. Prevention, not cure.

So, no need to take umbrage.

BTW I thought the deal with cleaners was you were meant to give them a present of double a week's wages in cash, plus token gift to open. or summat.

It could be worse, our regular babysitter bought me a lovely birthday present last January but it was rather spoilt by the "Happy 40th" message...I was turning 36!

Now, presumably it's your usual brand, hf, as this is something your cleaner will beprivy to.

Maybe she saw some in the Pound Shop and thought, Oooh, I'll get that for hf for Christmas.
