choffer Posted July 3, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted July 3, 2018 Getting pelters from some do-gooder in the office for having a shop-bought bottle of Buxton water on my desk. How could I have missed the memo saying that they'd banned single-use plastics from the office for this week?!?!? (The fact that the same bottle has been on my desk for weeks, having been refilled from the tap countless times is none of her business.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mottaloo Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) I just popped in to one of those nail/beauty salons in the desperate attempt to buy a female friend a birthday present. As I walk in, 6 or 7 bleached blonde heads turn around, all the cackling conversations stop and they just stare at me, 17stone unshaven bloke in shorts. I say " haha ! I feel a bit out of place here !"......silence....not a flicker. "Canna help yoooo ?" asks Barbie no.1 "Erm...yeah do you sell gift vouchers ?" "Maz.....where's the vouchers ?" Maz (aka barbie no.2) : " in the drawer, 'chelle" Barbie no.1: "how long do I put it for ?" Barbie no.2 : "6 months expiry" Barbie no.1: "erm...so...that's...erm....?" Barbie no.2 : "just put 31st Dec 2018 !" So Barbie no.1 manages to write it out, puts it in an envelope which i immediately take out to check the dopey bint put the right amount. A simple transaction that should've taken 2 mins took over 5 and all the time the other staff and their punters sat gawping at me, chewing their gum in bovine like synchronicity. Perhaps I'd interrupted their love island debate but honest to god, they did nothing to change my mind about the reputation such a profession's staff generally has !

HanoiVillan Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 They've also done you out of 3 days of value of their product (well, 2 assuming they aren't open on New Year's Day) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post lapal_fan Posted July 3, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) Meanwhile, on Mumsnet.. "So I was at work today and this big, fat, baby bird looking bastard comes ambling in through the door, with bits of his lunch smothered over his fat chops and fingers and he asks Chelle' if we do vouchers for his no-doubt fat fingered girlfriend.. I try and get him out the shop by arsing around because the mere sight of this disgusting mess is putting my other customers off. In the end I just made something up to get him out because his tit sweat started to drip on my floor. Urgh.. go back to your council house you blob. Maz XOXO" Edited July 3, 2018 by lapal_fan 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimTort Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I went to a wedding last Saturday and heard one of the funniest Villa-related play-off final stories I've heard in ages, told by the best man. But a) I didn't record it for sharing and b) can't post it here. It was lavatorial in nature and involved a broken zip fly. Why do the best stories get told in the wrong places?

Xela Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) These once every four year fans coming out the woodwork now the World Cup is on. The News showed some of these fan parks and there are people there, mainly young women, who look as though they have no idea what is going on or why they are there! Still, makes for a great selfie or Instagram post! /miserable bastard Edited July 3, 2018 by Xela 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am out of likes so i couldn't leave a HaHa But trust you, you made me laugh out loud and then MrsVM wanted in on the joke innit. So I just explained I was laughing about scat with Xela Cheers for that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
