I suppose it's a different category: not a swear word, but you wouldn't put it in an official statement, for example.

Definitely. It is too informal for that. But it isn't something you would worry about the company before saying it in conversation.

"Enmerder" or "pissed off"? If the latter, I certainly would consider the company before saying it, and possibly choose "annoyed" or "irritated" instead.
Thinking about it, I'd be careful about using the former too, as people might find it odd that I was using a French word that I didn't really understand.

The latter.
Ok.
I wouldn't - maybe I don't associate with quite such refined people as you

I had the BBC TV news on at lunchtime while doing other things, and I was quite surprised to hear the BBC reporting the news from France as the President was going to 'piss off' the anti-vaxxers. I agree that it is mild, but I'm sure that it is the first time that I have heard them use it on the news.

Boris usually fobs people off, he just doesn’t say it in public!

I suggest that our Prime Minister has the language skills as well as experience to know what enmerder means, in practice. But this is starting to stray into NACA risk areas.

No more so than self-certification for sickness has always been since it was introduced.A malingerers charter.

I don't think so. We could all go and complete a self cert or even convince a GP to give us a line but we couldn't get a genuine PCR result without having covid and in my line of work, that was the only thing standing in the way of the Monday club sooking a lemon before taking a lateral flow. Not pretty but reality for some.
