Things you'd like to say, but can't

[Theseus]

You really should not have made me very nearly start giggling when you mischeiviously larked about with the two models. How old are you? Act your age, not your shoe size!

I still do not know how I avoided giggling, but do you realise how badly this would have reflected on you and me, and that people would not have been in the least bit impressed when I tried to explain why!!!!!

That post is useless without pictures

NO, I can't make the 5:00pm meeting.

I leave at 4:00pm

let's have it the next moring instead, say 8:00 when I get in

What! ... Oh, I see you don't roll in until 10:00

I'm making you redundant because you are an arrogant, aggressive, bad mannered little slob who winds up everybody, and I mean everybody. Fortunately your work is slow and shoddy, and your attendance sporadic, so I can justify my decision on your performance matrix form. Also, stop spitting you antisocial scroat.


What I actually said was that the temporary position is no longer required given the downturn in the order book, and I reluctantly etc.....

Just because you drive a car with the word "taxi" written on it does not give you priority in the road over everything else on the planet, vehicular or otherwise.

You really need to think more carefully about what you are doing!

Yes, I know you saw me start to cross the road. I knew that the vehicle to my left was about 150 yards away, and the vehicle to my right was about 70 yards away. So I did not press the pedestrian light control button. Why should I? I knew I would walk across the walk safely and with a margin for error, I had already judged that both vehicles were proceeding slowly.

What I did not realise, is that you thought I was crossing because the green light was for pedestrians. That was your mistake. I had seen you (or, more correctly, registered in my vision that you were there) about seven yards to my left. NEVER FOR ONE SECOND did I think that you would follow me across the road. You had to turn the corner onto the crossing, and you were pushing a pushchair, how on earth did you think you would cross in the same gap as me? Do you know how far those vehicles travelled in those seconds?

Am I supposed to take into account any pedestrian remotely near me, before I cross the road? Fortunately for you I am a very cautious person when calculating my safety before crossing the road. If you had followed someone who was taking chances, I dread to think of the outcome. Please learn from this lesson, and keep yourself and your baby safe.

Of course I could alter the plans for Monday morning, working all week-end while our visitors from Dublin twiddle their thumbs, so that you can hand deliver the coloured up tender package on Monday afternoon and look efficient... no, second thoughts, I can't.

Yes i'd love to work Sundays regularly, no overtime, just standard rate, and spoil my weekend altogether....but as i've already said THREE times in the last 2 months..... its just not going to work. It means i could see my wife for just one full day every two weeks...i don't think so.
It's bordering on bullying (well you can try ).

And i know why you REALLY want me to work sundays, its so you can relax at home knowing the production's covered if anything goes wrong.
And to make it worse, you want me to take two days off midweek, without pay, so i'll barely make 4 days full work a week.
If all that's not bad enough, we've already lost our annual bonus, lost our overtime rates, work irregular hours and days and not had a wage rise for the last two years.

I think i've given enough. I'm old school...push me hard enough, i'll walk, i've already threatened it once in the last year.

Just fcuk off and stop asking me to work Sundays...(its a good job i like my job)

You have blatently lied to me about trying to contact me, why insult my intellegence to cover your amature management practice?

When you have requested dates that I will be at home in order to gain acess and I give you dates allowing access to the property on certain days, it might be sensible to pass this information onto your contractors to avoid wasting their and my time.

I am not relishing having to enter into dialogue with builders who appear not speak a shred of English as to why I will not give them access to the property, especially after ignoring two requests that they put down dust sheets to spare my carpet or that the usual way to enter someone's property is to knock and announce your arrival rather than barge past silently with no warning while I'm getting the family dinner together.

To the girl I was stuck waiting behind in ASDA today, who was the thickest, most annoying human i've ever laid eyes on, please hurry up and sort yourself out next time. I was in a rush, in the 10 items of less self serve line, she couldn't work herself out, let alone the machine. Once she decided she couldn't work it, she decided to mouth off to the workers, swearing in front of some young kids. Once she had scanned everything, she even asked if she had to press 'Finish and pay'... Maybe I'm just grump, but these people shouldn't be allowed outside on their own.

 

[MossCommuter]

To all the supermarkets of the world it's "10 items or fewer" gggggrrrrrrrrrr

 

[Speicher]

What on earth did you think you were doing? (That is the polite version)

I know the High Street is a busy place. Strangely enough the shops need deliveries sometimes, and have no delivery bays at the back. I cannot think of any reason whatsoever that you needed to accelerate past that van at such a speed.

The length of the High Street is limited to twenty miles an hour- is that clear twenty miles an hour.
So when you accelerated past that van did you think you were exempt from the speed limit?

Were you oblivous to the pedestrian crossing that you approaced at such speed, when the red light had been showing for some time, and pedestrians were in the middle of the road?

Did you even notice the lady hurrying to get out of your way, or me looking shocked because I did not think you were going to stop?

And what makes this twenty times worse (expletives deleted) ..... you..... were...... a.....Driving Instuctor.

Think about this very carefully. If I had been less shocked and less certain that you were going to hit a pedestrian. I would have xxxxxxxx noticed the xxxxxxxx name of your xxxxxxxxxxx driving school, and you would be looking for a new job. I will be looking out for you next week, as I assume you have a regular timetable!!!!!!!!

I work bloody hard for my money, so when I decide to spend it in your shop I expect you to place my change in to my outstreched hand, not on the f**king counter!

I also expect eye contact.

Alternatively:

"When giving me my change, don't wrap the coins in the £10 note and throw the package into my waiting hand, as if I've got some kind of lurgy that you are frightened of catching!"

And:

"Stop cackling on your mobile to a mate while you are serving me!"***


*** Doubly annoying because there is a sign on the counter asking customers not to do it!

I particularly hate the way they give you notes, then receipt, then coins, so you have to faff around struggling to undo the whole lot to put away in your wallet while they start immediately serving the next person. It should be receipt, notes, coins.

You narrow minded selfish b*st*rd. Now you have assumed that everyone will again jump to your commands. We are volunteers FFS so b*gg*r off. I will not, repeat will not service your every whim. You never do anything to help out unless you directly benefit yourself, you ignore others' significant achievements and crow about your own. But you are in fact a little pratt in a very small pond and through lack of perspective grown a self image which is way overblown. So s*d off somewhere where they give a sh*t.
