Tattle Turds #2

[Just William]

x Thank you x @GoLibrarianPoo @Bastion @CookieMonsta @Caitlyn130 for your kind words. (I hope I haven't forgotten anyone?)

@Caitlyn130 - bless you, no, definitely not. It also has nothing to do with what has gone down the last few days, although that made me keep away too as I felt sad & anxious about it all & I hate conflict. My feelings are based on what I said in my original post.
Well done taking that little cutie in, I do hope they find the other?

Wishing you, your partner & baby all the best! xxx

@Bastion - I will definitely be thinking of you. xxx I'm not religious, more on the spiritual side, IYKWIM, I'm asking the Universe to help you. (That is my way of ) I'm so glad you'll have a friend with you to take notes because it can be hard to take everything in at the best of times.
I also think the tip to record the meeting is a good idea. You are such a lovely soul & I really hope this meeting goes well for you. + + + + +
Good Luck. If it was up to me those bastards would be fired for the way they have treated you & you would get compensation, from the company & also from them. Sending you strength & much love, xxx

@Autisteuse - wishing you all the best for Monday. You can do this! Baby steps, but hopefully ones that will eventually lead you to a better future where you can find peace & happiness. Strength & much love, xxx

I didn't post on the MT y/day, did a brief post tonight, will lurk, my heart just isn't in it right now. But I'm sure this too will pass.

Love to all you turds, xxx

@Penguin86 My love, how are you?

Hiya I'm just a bit unwell. I have earache and sneezes. Did a covid test and it was negative thank god. I think I've let myself get dehydrated though

@Caitlyn130 thank you pixie has been extra affectionate

 

[Just William]

Hope you soon feel better @Penguin86 xxx

 

[Penguin86]

I feel so awful.
I'm up late because I'm watching the Royal Rumble but I have to keep rushing to the bathroom.

Still dont regret all the shart puns though.

@Caitlyn130 are you taking orders? If so,
can you have a go at manifesting Tom Hardy in my life just for this evening please. I’ve tried to do it but don’t seem to have your knack.

Same please with Sean bean

Sadly enough also Michael portillo would do. No idea what that says about me
@Bastion oh yes def Philip glenister! "Ammed bastards". Wishing you strength for tomorrow would echo recording it I ended up doing that

@Caitlyn130 was just so happy to hear you feeling calm & have options that's made my day🫂gutted about people who "lose" their dogs

@Just William am so sorry you feel down hearted atm 🫂xxxxx

Thought about whether to post this but what the heck been having little wobble what's kind of made it feel worse is I had phone call assessment for my therapy funding a seemed OK then few days ago had call back as they deem me to need long term & they only offer short term they can't help me? Just feels like weird way of saying they can't afford to help everyone which is absolutely fine we all know how bad diff services are all round country. But felt like a knock I would love to go see lovely lady I found again but right now just not financially feasible. So going spend time today really thinking hard about what I need to do to make my life easier & not let mum down in process . Reality needs to be addressed I can't let it all build up again & go even nuttier than I usually am so calm & collected is what I'm trying to aim for.......

Because you can never have enough shart, cheese or mimsy jokes would like to say I'm cheesy. Cheesy like Sunday morning

Love to all turds🫂xxx

Dear MR, have you spoken to your GP? There are other counselling options available via the NHS - that's how I found my trauma therapist. Also, you *can* go back to a CBT specialist if there's a three month break between appointments. Wish I could help somehow! Lots of love to you. xx

 

[Magpierainbow]

@Autisteuse that's useful info thank you. Been doing lot of researching etc about particular issues will go into it another time when I have more coherent reply but am feeling more proactively positive nothing changes overnight & it's all about mindset isn't it. Everything is what it is so I got to change what I can & get appropriate help with stuff to make life easier

Anyway thank you so much will be rooting for you tomorrow also sending strength & positivity would love to hear how you feel if you want to share after you've processed whatever happens tomorrow 🫂

I know, it's crazy isn't it. I've got written notes from HR from the 1st formal meeting showing that my line manager kept apologising for the things he had done to me and also him saying I'm one of the best on the team. My 2nd level manager is particularly unpleasant and spiteful though and I fully expect him to deny all the things he has said and done to me, my favourite being him telling me all his managers hate me and laugh about me in manager meetings . If the senior manager in Mondays meeting says that he denies everything I've said I'm going to be bringing up the fact that all the points I brought up about my line manager he admitted to in the 1st formal meeting, so what are the chances that I was honest about him but made up all the the things about the 2nd level manager? I've also got on the back burner all the disgusting comments he makes about any young or pretty girl ("I've got a tingle in my trousers", "she's got a nice pair of tits" etc) and I'm not exaggerating when I say he's made these comments hundreds of times over the years, he's even said it in front of other managers from different teams and they all say things like "that's just Steve" . Actually, I wouldn't really bring them up as although the whole team has witnessed him saying it many times they just laugh along to stay in his good books and I don't think any of them would admit he had said it for fear of it causing them problems, which I do understand.

ETA - spelling.

"That's just Steve" they say as he slabbers all over young girls. I have worked with people like this, working the room at the Christmas Party being a letchy hole. It's not on and Steve needs brought down a peg or two.

The more you tell me the more it makes my tiger mom hackles rise. The things they have said about you are disgraceful absolutely disgraceful. The environment seems so toxic and if they don't sort this out and take steps to make amends you need to seek outer counsel. This is workplace bullying and harrasment. These men need taken to task because your not the only one this will be happening to. Good luck tomorrow x

Happy Sunday lovely turds! Is anyone else having a Sunday lunch today? I think I'm going to do the whole shebang!

 

[Caitlyn130]

@Bastion god that sounds awful.
I will start manifesting that Steve gets his comeuppance and that the meeting goes in your favour!

@Katie8ee Pub lunch for us. There is a pub at the end of our street which is so, so lovely. You walk in there and everyone knows your name (I'm not in there that much I swear) and you see your neighbours, people you know. It has a great beer garden. It feels like a proper country pub, even though we're (technically) in East London!

 

[sleeptime]

@Bastion Your manager sounds awful, I hope the meeting goes well.

@Magpierainbow I hope you can find something else to get help.

Enjoy the pub lunch @Caitlyn130, make the most of doing things like before the baby comes.

@Penguin86 Hope you feel better soon.

We need Alice back on the main thread, she gives us lot of material to work with when she goes on the rampage!

I hope you feel a bit brighter soon. x

I'm sorry to hear you are struggling. Would the lady you would like to see do a discount or maybe she takes on some pro bono work? I wasn't in that particular field, but years ago when I was in a different job, for every 20 clients I charged full whack to, I would do one heavily discounted/pro-bono. I think it's always worth asking, I'm often pleasantly surprised what happens when I do ask.

I do get irritated when people say that money doesn't buy happiness. In theory yes, that statement is correct. but it certainly helps to buy you some things in life that can make you happy, like a roof over your head, heating, food and help with mental health.

I hope you get what you need soon. Take care x

Happy Sunday lovely turds! Is anyone else having a Sunday lunch today? I think I'm going to do the whole shebang!

Nice Sunday lunch out, roast beef and all the trimmings today. Tastes so much nicer when you haven't cooked it yourself

 

[Penguin86]

Probably won't bother eating today

 

[Ena Sharples]

Is @GoLibrarianPoo ok? Has anyone heard from her?

 

[Caitlyn130]

Is @GoLibrarianPoo ok? Has anyone heard from her?

I just tried doing a search for her username to see when she last posted, but her username doesn't seem to be listed now. Is she still with us?!?!

Are you not feeling any better?

 

[Ena Sharples]

I just tried doing a search for her username to see when she last posted, but her username doesn't seem to be listed now. Is she still with us?!?!

I know she was very upset by the recent stuff, I hope she is just taking a break to catch her breath and comes back really soon.

 

[Penguin86]

@Caitlyn130 think I'm just stressed and anxious on top of being ill because extended family member is back in hospital

 

[Just William]

Thank you @Ena Sharples & @Magpierainbow - I did one post today, mostly lurking & 'liking'. xxx

@Magpierainbow - I'm so sorry you're facing the lack of funding, it's so disheartening. I think @Autisteuse & @Ena Sharples advice is great & I really hope you can get the help you need. xxx

@Ena Sharples - totally agree with you about the old 'money can't buy happiness' BS. It can certainly make life a hell of a lot easier & more comfortable!

Good Luck @Bastion & @Autisteuse tomorrow. xxx
@Bastion - I so hope the disgusting sexist misogynistic bastards who did this to you get their comeuppance.

Feel better soon @Penguin86 - xxx ETA so sorry to hear that. A cliche I know but he's in the best place right now but I do hope he will soon be able to return home. xxx

I hope @GoLibrarianPoo is ok? xxx

 

[sleeptime]

I hope you feel better soon @Penguin86 and your family member is ok. Good luck for tomorrow with your work meeting @Bastion and hope your university can help you @Autisteuse

Found a woodlouse in the house, my daughter has named it Princess Luna .

 

[Penguin86]

@sleeptime I feel bit better. I spoke to them today. I rang my nan (my best friends nan who has been my surrogate nan since i was like 4) to see how grandad was and she said he's on the heart ward on oxygen and they are hoping eventually to get him home with oxygen to lower his risk of catching a bug in hospital. He's 90 in may. Then she said he's got the mobile phone so I rang and spoke to him and he sounded alot better and he's already being a nuisance to the nurses. I had a cry after we got off the phone

My mum always used to call them grummy grumps so that's what we call woodlice. Or roly poly bugs.

 

[Bastion]

Thank you so much everyone for your support. Fingers crossed that the meeting goes OK tomorrow. I'm actually feeling really anxious today so have been trying to distract myself.
Stay safe everyone
