Later tonight I'll take our 10-year old for our nightly walk to give the wife a bit of alone time. Have a good day there pal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As above it just me telling folk to get a grip. i'm a work then play sort of guy. Do what you do, just do it right on my watch, when you walk out the door, I don't give a shite (if you have outside problems, speak to me), probably the the best boss you would want. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Sat down for lunch with her yesterday, which we don't usually do, and there was a gameshow on the telly. She asked if I'd seen it before and i explained that i'd once seen about a minute of it. Spent my whole lunch break explaining that i didn't know how the game worked because she kept saying "What do they have to do? I said what do they have to do? Don't shoosh me- I'm only asking what they have to do" every time the estate agent looking gadgie started explaining anything. Apparently Echidna was a wrong answer but not impossible and that's a good thing. No idea why. Future lunches will be in front of the computer while i "work" i think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it'll be worse and she will repeat herself facing away from me (if we are doing the shopping or something and she is walking in front while I push the trolley). Like, evidently I couldn't hear you the first time, hence the reason I asked you to repeat yourself, so fucking turn round and speak a little louder when you say it again I had a deaf flatmate for a while. He’d lost his hearing at 16 so he still spoke really well and both his parents were hearing so he’d gotten excellent at lip reading. This unfortunately meant half the time you forgot he was deaf and he needed to lip read you and would go about your business while in conversation. ‘mate, what you up to on Sunday’ ‘probably spaghetti bolognaise I think’ (‘huh?…oh f**k…) Never wanted to correct him because it was your fault, not his, but it did mean you’d have about 12 different conversations in the space of one conversation 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
