Tell 'em you're a Liberal Democrat that likes cats and you always throw your *** ends (no pun intended) out of the window.

That should start the ball rolling.......

My solution to Work confrontation....

agrro aimed towards me
Me: "f**k off"

Somebody comes to me with a problem:
Me: "are you too f**king stupid to do it yourself, why TF are you working here?"

Customer complains:
Me: Sorry sir, but you seem to be confusing me with somone who gives a s**t, now f**k off!

Supplier screws up
Me: What the f**k? If you guys had two brain cells then you'd qualify to work in a McDonalds. But no, your not even that clever. So I have f**king put with you p**s poor excuse for human beings. The order has the part number, so how f**king hard is it to take said item off shelf with the same number and put it in a f**king van??




I won't deny I haven't used these before. Being a "people person" was never listed in the personal qualities on my CV

I did this course a couple of months ago. I had to politely push someone away when they "got in my face". He was about half the size of me and I think I pushed him a bit too hard

and you couldn't even get that right either could you

you downright lied when you said you bought something off him on ebay and then you lied again when you said the mods told you that you couldn't post the 'receipt' up.

Ironic or moronic - you decide!

Why use the ebay crap in particular then? Why not something more obviously "ironic"? Or why not just tell us what you supposidly bought if it was all a big joke anyway? And why say the mods warned you when you could just have said you were simply being ironic? It all smells of ****, and strongly.

Yep sorry Paul, this was either a gross misjudgment or you've made a false accusation which deserves an apology. Rich and Anna are decent people - just because they quite legitimately hold a view of Mr Galloway doesn't mean you can launch a personal crusade like that. A lesson learned i'd hope, if your version of events is true.

THEN get them to handle what follows
