Mumsnet #87 Send Nudes.

Someone complaining that her manager has banned vest tops from the office. The vest in question is a raggy old t shirt with the sleeves chopped off. No wonder her manager banned it cos she looks a bleeping mess.
This thread has made me laugh. I'm a senior manager in a university and I wear vest tops to work. My boss who's the COO comes into the office in shorts and flip flops when it's this hot. The OP does look a bit of a scruffbag though.

Where do Mumsnetters work? The 1950s?

This post from the dreadful thread about summer looks that you'd ban.

Unless she's preparing the food with her actual a, what's the issue?

It wouldn't bother me. I'd rather people preparing my food had their armpits covered but most of the time I don't see the person preparing my food so they could be a fully nude Oleg from 2 broke girls for all I know. Also if I'm honest with myself and uncovered armpit is probably the bottom of gross scale after my food has been reared, grown, picked, slaughtered, processed, packed, shipped, stored, prepared, cooked and served.

She has since added that this photo was taken of her wearing the offending vest on the weekend and now she's wearing it to work? I hope it's been washed in the interim, if not I think we may have solved the problem, it's not the sleeve length that the manager is concerned about but that she is a minger.

M&S vanity sizing quote - I ordered some stuff from M&S and it was huge!

And another - Their size 10 trousers literally drop off me, and I wouldn't say I'm small

Well M&S size 12 fits me perfectly and I’m a perfectly decent size in my option!

@Brandshinynew .., thanks for the message on the last thread. This has been going on for 4 weeks. Just been for a mri scan.

My walking has improved but still a lot of weakness and numbness. Had to use a wheelchair for the appointment today (pushed by dh) as the car park is huge and it’s also a trek to radiology.

I had the dreaded 5 days of steroids 2.5 weeks ago, almost sent me round the bend 🤣

How are you doing? How long has this been going on for you? Take care
I was diagnosed 16 years ago. Im struggling with the heat atm my speech is slurred and I can't actually walk today. It will be better tomorrow when temp is a few degrees lower.
Ive had symptoms for 20+ years. But Dr's weren't interested. It took optic neuritis and losing my vision to get them to take me seriously
How long you been dealing with it x

Same. I suspect my first attack in my late teens - but it took until a bout of Marty Feldman eyes for doctors to take it seriously. A dentist and an optometrist had already figured it out… but of course being large, northern, poor and a woman…

The climate may be a bit rit in the north of Scotland - but the temperature is kinder for me. OTOH the wind does a number on facial pain. 😢

I didn’t think I’d ever be able to walk again but a neuro physio put me right in under a month 😯 - all paid for by the MS Society - so worth seeing if you have one in your area. X
