You can shove your ****ing professionalism up your ****ing **** you useless ****. I didn't send someone a P45 whilst they were in intensive care having given birth two months early you useless ****. You did."
Whereas what I said, through gritted teeth, was "Yes. I'll speak to her. I'm sure I can sort things out."

So, when you receive an email from higher management headed "Reorganisation Proposals" at 08:00 on a Tuesday, what part of of you thinks it's a good idea NOT to circulate it to your staff, but to wait until all 3 of us on duty at the time are out of the office sorting out counterfeit goods for the whole morning before taking a 1/2 day's leave? Why also did you not bother to mention it at all on Wednesday or Thursday?
Why the hell do we have to wait the other team manager comes in two and a half days later to find out about this? Were you ever going to let us know or where you just going to sit on it and hope it goes away like you do with everything else that requires you to make a decision you useless piece of ****?

FFS, stop looking at it from every angle, stop endlessly inspecting the tip of the mig nozzle, put down the sidecutters, stop trimming back the welding wire, again, stop looking at it from every angle...AND JUST TACK THE FREEKING THING 
ONE tack weld, just a little piece of stainless steel thats sheared off and wants re-fixing. Id have had it done in seconds....literally. Youve spent two minutes poncing round and i havnt seen a spark yet. FFS JUST WELD IT !!!!

So you want me to help you with the e-commerce web site that you asked me to build yet you gave the job to someone else and you don't know how to use it properly?
Oh - it isn't finished yet?
You don't know what it will look like because you have not seen any draught designs?
You don't know how much it will cost only that it will be cheaper than the cost of the last build?
You're not getting documentation?
You haven't had any meetings with the chap who's building the site?
Oh - and he's difficult to get hold of and you want him to finish the job as quickly as possible?
You want me to sort it out as a favour because you're short of cash?
Yes I could help you but my original quote +10% is the new price.
No pay - no way.
What I really said was:
I will only take over the project once you take delivery of the web site and I'll provide all the missing materials and support at my original price.
You can't afford to pay twice? Then ask your chap to provide them free of charge and see how far you get.

Neighbours... Your respective children, who are playing quite happily in their respective gardens, are not deaf. Their every microsecond of play does not need to be micro-managed. They particularly do not need to be micro-managed at similar decibel levels akin to a small jet aircraft taking off.
Just talk to them. Normally. Why on Earth do you need to use loud voices when you're stood next to them? Others would like to enjoy their gardens without hearing you booming at your children for several hours a day. Just speak normally.
Thank you.

So let me get this straight... we have been bought out to the tune of £130 million, and you're telling us that the new owners have 'absolutely no plans whatsoever' of making any changes?? hmmm so which farking tree do you think we just fell out of? I would rather you treat us with a little more respect and tell us what the plans really are, I would then in turn have a little more respect for you you lying shoot.

It's my universal experience that if a company is bought out, and a manager / director says 'No plans to make changes / reductions in headcount / redundancies' then revise your CV ASAP. You're shortly going to need it.
Apropos of which - look around your department and work out who's obviously the first one out.
If you can't spot them - it's you!

Now that actually does need saying.
What I wanted to say our lovely friends who are staying with us with their 6 year old son:-
"No, we're not lucky that our daughters just like fruit and veg. We worked at this from the day that they were weaned, and so 6 or so years later they've come to expect that every meal will include veg or fruit and usually both. Of course, given the choice their staple diet would be pizza, chips, sausages, ice-cream and chocolate which seems to be all your son will eat, and at times meals would have been immeasurably easier if we had, but then who said parenting was ever easy? Grow-up!"
What I actually said was:-
"Don't worry; I'm sure it's a phase. He'll grow out of it"
