Lisa Cuddy Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Yes, the mid-50's is a bad time for women. My step-mother is 50. I sense things will only get worse in that regard. Might explain why she's so condescending however, maybe you look like you need a good mothering?* And all the rest of the stuff Monster said... He sounds like a highly entertaining guy to have about, probably because, rather than in spite of the fact, he's a total arse! I think I look more like a petulant brat to her, to be honest. I tend to be a bit opinionated. You'd never guess, would you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebanda's Handyman Services Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Yes, the mid-50's is a bad time for women. My step-mother is 50. I sense things will only get worse in that regard. Might explain why she's so condescending however, maybe you look like you need a good mothering?* I worked with a bloke years ago that used to find out where everyone in the company drank, turn up(usually in spandex) and boast about his fitness while pointing at us and yelling out loudly to all and sundry: "That's mah mates there". Delightful. Same bloke also grabbed the chest of a delivery woman at the back roller doors one day, so afterwards every time there was a delivery I had to go sign for it. He also introduced himself to everyone, and I mean EVERYONE with the following: "Awright? Ah'm Billy. Ah run. Ah'm fit as f**k!" Including the European Director of our parent company. That was an interesting day. He was also discovered in the Company Secretarys garden at night in full combat gear (including painted face) not long after she knocked him back when he asked her out. Of course, you'll have worked out by now he was in the TA. All of this is far-fetched, but I assure everyone it's absolutely true. he was the most loathsome man I have ever met, but also in some ways the funniest. *sorry about leaving kilt such a massive target. Bet you got many a laugh at him Monster. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie_1888 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Absolutely tremendous!! I have never once stopped giving thanks for being the only person in this office. Never underestimate the comfort of solitude. As for the singing, murder her (imaginitively, don't just stab her or something), then quote the songs she sang to the judge - not a court in the land would convict you. I mean, the Carpenters? What is she, 65? I would consider the Carpenters too cruel to play at Guantanemo Bay for fuxake! ("Starve me some more, beat me unconscious, PEE ON MY ORANGE BOILER SUIT, whatever, just shut that wailing chiffon-clad anoxeric bint up!!!!") The time is fast approaching where she'll ask you to go for a drink after work. This has happened to me, and as I was put on the spot I couldn't think of an excuse, so I went to the pub with my colleague, pretended to go to the toilet while he was getting the first round in and fucked off home. I wouldn't advise this course of action as it leads to difficult explainations later:"Eh.....I was abducted by these aliens, y'see..." Have an excuse ready every Friday beforehand. Good luck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Bet you got many a laugh at him Monster. Oh yes, Indeed. he used to boast about being a Lance-Corporal in the TA, and for days after he recieved the promotion he would go around correcting people that would say something, for example: "Billy, could you..." He would interrupt: "EH! That's LCP Billy tae you pal!" He soon stopped though once I started calling him Loud Clatty Prick Billy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francesc Fabregas Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Billy - I remember there was a thread going about a year or so ago about him, it was fucking hilarious. Monster and ICTChris had some superb tales about their colleagues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
