Northener - because they can ?

expatinscotland · 17/11/2005 12:51

Who is doing it with them, tho?

SackAche · 17/11/2005 12:52

Northerner - Totally agree!! And those blokes who work in Construction.... working away from home Monday to Friday. Really worrying!!

DaddyCoolNippingAtYourNose · 17/11/2005 12:53

huh? where do you work? is it loads of sad grey haired dudes pinching bums and shagging their equally heinus female colleagues?

beansprout · 17/11/2005 12:53

Dh is at a conference at the moment

I work fir an event managemnet company and we work for 3 major pharma companies organising over 2000 events per annum. We often do onsite support and attend gala dinners and stuff and it's so clear what's going on, in fact our clients often brag about it.

Unfortunatley some of my colleagues are the woman these men are doing it with

PMSL @ DC.

DaddyCool - absolutely right, sad people shagging sad people. Yeuch.

SackAche · 17/11/2005 12:54

Middle-aged blokes who work away from home and spend every evening sitting in the pub..... pulling anything that will show them a bit of attention. So sad.

It's encouraged sometimes though isn't it. My dh has to go to Japan quite regularly and the bosses there actually send prostitutes up to his room!!! He has made it clear he is not interested but they do it every time! He has to be really blunt with them to get them to leave.

Also, when he goes to Czech Republic with work. The bosses there take him to a naked strip joint with special services available upstairs. He refuses to go in and goes back to his hotel. Even if the bosses are unhappy with him he's adamant hes not going to put himself in that position.

He's a good boy

DaddyCoolNippingAtYourNose · 17/11/2005 12:58

i don't know how they do it. saying that i'm only at these things for a couple days at a time. i fly to US, get in about midnight, attend meeting at 7:30 (..7:30! bloody yanks), chinwag with accounting saddos, go back to room go to sleep and repeat the same next day. how do these guys have the time? even the dinners tend to be together so these middle aged arses must be up all hours.

mommie · 17/11/2005 13:00

i used to go to political party conferences and everyone there was at it like rabbits - it was a standing joke, people sloping together upstairs after late night drinks in hotel bar. Fun if it's you - sad it it's not

mommie · 17/11/2005 13:01

sorry - just noticed we are talking about married men here..... very bad in that case.

Well in this industry sector there is usually a huge social programme with the conference so lots of time for flirting and drinking......

ks - little hint. If he talks to you about opportunities that have been offered or what other people are doing then he is probably NOT doing it. If he is very quiet and says he saw nothing and no-one then he MAY have dont it. Or he MAY have just had a lovely quiet time in his hotel room. You know your dh and you know whether he is trustworthy, it doesnt matter what other people get up to.

northerner · 17/11/2005 13:12

Pruni I'd not thought of that until now. Conjours up a revolting mental picture.

Sachache change your name now please. Can you be rednoseache?

DaddyCoolNippingAtYourNose · 17/11/2005 13:15

pashmina · 17/11/2005 14:13

SackAche · 17/11/2005 14:17

HA! Not changing it so MWAH! Well... might change it to SantasSackAche....

piffle · 17/11/2005 14:17

My dh works away and attends week long conferences and training courses.
Even iwht a woman he had a relationship with before she met her dh and before I met dp.
Never for one moment has it crossed my mind that he might be unfaithful.
