diegomarahenry Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 A woman at my work is reasonably dense, Continually gets words wrong, like Pacifically/specifically, electrical/electoral register etc but she went on her first city break last weekend and has spent all week telling folk she was in Madrid but pronouncing it Mad - ar - eeeeed in a faux-Spanish accent that is making me feel violent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pisses me right off One of our top management team has been doing a presentation "roadshow" over the past couple of weeks. I have been setting it up for him, and standing in to make sure everything goes alright. He starts every presentation with a little bit of information about his life, "I have been married for 32 years, in fact last week was our anniversary.... the wife said you get less for murder" I have sat through this joke eight times and on each occasion I have watched one of his staff laugh uncontrollably each time. ETA, it wasn't Gem. Edited October 8, 2018 by LondonHMFC 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsimButtHitsASix Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Water cooler delivery guy turnt up before I started today. Asked how many bottles of water we needed for the cooler (ye know the big ones). They usually come once a week and we don't even bother getting on each week unless it's summer. Lassie working said "fourteen" think we'd go through fifteen litres of water a day or something. Came in and the office is fucking filled with these fucking huge bottles of water. I never even thought much of it, they can just sit there til they're being used, but now estates management are wondering why the water bill for the hospital is twice as much as normal. Absolute melter of a woman. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Never understood the need for water coolers.

I always fill from the tap and some "wag" must always comment on this. Had arranged a meeting last week and had 15 attendees coming in from across the country - took some milk from the fridge for their tea and coffees and then around an hour into the meeting someone came barging into the room and claimed the milk whilst saying "thats the bottle that has to remain in the fridge" and swapping it. Complete fuckwittery. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The water tastes rank. The fact it even has a taste troubles me. It is still drinkable tho and, if ye pour it into a bottle and leave it in the fridge, it's cold enough ye don't notice. When our water cooler was fucked in May I had my staff moaning that it was too hot and they needed something to drink and got right in the huff when I suggested tap water. One of them even put in a complaint to hospital management :/ He is a dick tho 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is she an amputee? Because that's the only reason why changing the water bottle would take more than one person. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
