We have had to work through the pandemic our lazy big boss shielded and was doing his minimal work at home, had to come in because his assistant was suspended for suspected sexual harassment. While the boss was in made a racist comment and got sacked. The guy that was on the harassment charge got away with it and has been promoted. You could not make this shit up

When he was eighteen an overweight ugly female gave him a lift home just before they got there she pulled over and gave him a blow job in the car, he had great pleasure in telling everybody at work including a colleague that was sleeping with her (he told the bloke that she had said that his cock was bigger). She then sent him so nudes which he shared with management. Honestly there is a story a night at this place.

I used to visit an outlet that employed an introducer who was basically a 50 something fruitcake who dressed like a porn star. Customers complained about her - she looked ridiculous

then she sent an e mail to a junior sales guy inviting him to visit her in a meeting room and had a video attached camcording her with no knickers on

He complained and then it got escalated to the franchise director. Unfortunately this chap was a sex alcohol and drug addicted nightmare. I had to meet him the week after he assessed the situation at the work place

He said he wasn’t getting rid of her - he did t see the fuss but thought he might have at least got a shag out the visit, but was disappointed as she looked like a right old trout so couldn’t be bothered

Wasn't this agreed some time ago by the EU (well before Brexit) to minimise electrical waste?

Personal Trainers that put 'PT' after their name on social media.

Up there with the twats that put 'BEng, MEng CEng MIET' after their name on LinkedIn

....to be fair, I think a Chartered Engineer has probably done a bit more than a few star jumps to earn their letters.......

I don't use PTs or Linkedin by the way.

I guess I’ve worded it wrong. I don’t mind the tributes, it’s the failure to admit that it was Liverpool fans to blame.

Outside of a work setting, anybody who uses their qualifications etc. is a right pompous cock.

One of my neighbours used to sign his emails MA (Oxon) ffs!

Oh yeah I'm not saying that, it's those that have to list every single fucking accreditation afterwards, or at all. Let your CV do the talking

The beauty industry is notorious for letters after their names some of them need a separate card just for the qualifications, I know one lady who has loads of them hasn’t stopped her being a twat though.

There is also a trend inside my works for people with PhDs to give themselves the title of Dr in their signature, even though it's the civil service and we don't care one iota that you have a PhD.

They really shouldn't. Technically, it's Dr. Wisdom but it seems so pompous, especially when it's not a medical doctorate - you wouldn't want me stepping forward on a plane if you'd had a heart attack! I once fell out with one of our stakeholders (for wont of a better word!) who insisted on calling me Dr. and refusing to use my first name, even when I asked them to. In the end I snapped and told them it was a horrendous affectation that was embarrassing, and totally irrelevant.

They weren't happy after that.

Now obviously there are times when it might be relevant, but don't use it until it is... which is very rarely these days!

I suppose I should also add in the annoyance, people who treat you differently once they find what title you have. I mean, just decide if you like or hate me, think I'm competent or incompetent based on what I *do*!

Hard disagree. If I’d finished my PhD EVERYONE including my kids, and my missus in bed would be made to call me Dr. That’s half the point of it.
