Lavenders_Blue Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 The people at work who apparently took an innocent comment I made in a confidential meeting, and decided to snitch to a colleague that I thought she wasn't doing her job properly Result: 2 upset employees - one who thought some young upstart was trying to tell her how to do her job, and one confused and upset person who can't work out how a general comment made about no-one in particular (not a nasty comment either) suddenly turned into a direct attack on that person and their job. Yep, you're going into 101 (whoever you are...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tutti Frutti Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 My uncle. Each Xmas, I make cards for family and friends (takes me ages!) and donate the cash that I would have spent if I'd bought them to a topical charity, rather than my cash lining shareholders' pockets. I've given to allsorts including cancer charities, medical charities,m mosquito net charities, bought 100 hot school meals through Oxfam and, last year, BHWT. Only to get a stinging email from him MONTHS later complaining that, even though they spend ages carefully choosing me a card, I couldn't be bothered to do the same and buy them a card and to think about that the "next time I put a stupid chicken charity before family". Uh? IN YOU GO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 OK, starting with something a little dull: Soap dispensers that overshoot your hand and get a sticky mess on your skirt/trousers/t-shirt or miss you entirely and splats on the floor. Did I mention MIL? Think I did a few times. Mum - she's already in and I hold the key to her cell. OH - It's all my fault we can't go on long outings because I wanted the chickens. If I remember rightly they were my 50th birthday present from him and we both wanted them. Not to mention that I wasn't able to choose my chickens - DD chose one, he chose one and I had last picking. Plus he was happy to hatch chicks, he is happy to eat the eggs, he was happy to eat the one boy from the hatching and he was happy to adopt some more because we were already looking round to add more anyway. He's going in head first. And MIL because she's an Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Speckled Hen Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 I think it's a good idea to dip one's OH in just quickly now and then to give them some perspective. A view of Bedlam (considering who us lot have put in there already) occasionally, lets them know how wonderful life with us really is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Cling film. Particularly the stuff that either doesn't tear or only tears part of the way across so that the rest stays on the roll and renders the rest of the roll useless as you can't ever find the end and get it to work as a roll again properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patsylabrador Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 The man (aged mid forties I reckon) who was aggressively letching, a young teenage girl this morning as she crossed the road.
