I am part of a Charity committee and I was nominated back in as President after a two year stint a few years back, but now the powers that be decided that any office bearers have to do a training course. I worked my backside off on the course for about a month before submitting it ahead of taking the Presidency back on. It was sent back to me within quarter of an hour of Emailing it away and it was torn to bits.

"In a word - tit" was one comment. "Did you write this while you were pissed?" was another. If I take something on I throw my heart into it and give it my all, so that hurt, especially when I was President in the past and the Charity was in the best place it had been in for years (not tooting my own horn there - it is just how I work) It is close to folding because of all the Covid lockdowns and all that and my plan outlined in the course - which I was nominated for by the guy who has ripped my work to shreds - was to recover the Charity post Covid. It was compared to "Something you would find coming out of the back end of a dog"

I worked with the guy and made changes but I soon realised that he has a view of how the Charity should be working and wanted to change my ideas into his and let me be the scapegoat when it backfired. I took great pride this evening in picking up the phone and withdrawing from the nomination. I love the Charity but it isn't worth the hassle. Sadly by default now it means he will come in as President so I hate to think where the Charity is heading.

Sorry Tattlers, rant over.
Sorry to hear this, to be honest stepping down will probably be for the best, carrying on would probably have been soul-destroying in the long Most charities these days even the small ones are changing into money-making machines and the actual charity purpose is a front. I have seen this happen over and over again with the small charities now following the steps of the large ones. Any person who tries to do what is best for the people/animals/place the charity is for, normally gets a kick in the face.

This is why I now only give directly to people in need

The responses you received are inappropriate and unprofessional. Did you call the sender of the email out on their childish responses?

I wonder if the person who wants the president position was trying to bully you out and is going to use your ideas anyway.

I don't have a porch where it was supposedly left. If they didn't get an answer from either me or upstairs, they could have (as everyone else does) knocked on the window.

I went swimming this morning, As I was stood at the mirror brushing out my long wet hair after my swim, the lady beside me, who I see in the pool occasionally and just say 'hello ' to, turned to me and said 'You should get your hair cut'.
And I'm not even joking. What a cheeky b1t(h. I was rendered speechless.
PS She herself has what I think is an ugly grey short-back-and-sides. Although I would not dream of saying so to her. I have manners.

What the hell, how is that any of her business in the first place? You should have asked her if she was taught manners. That's so rude!

My selfish neighbours playing loud music through the walls and slamming doors past 11pm when they know I have a two year old in bed. At least knock and say what time it’ll end because that’s what gives me the most anxiety…

When a regular tattler posts they won't be posting for a while due to an 'urgent issue'. Then you see their usual/identifiable posts on other threads. Hmm 🤔 we're not stupid. You know who you are missus 🙄🤨. Thanks for letting me rant. I feel better now 😚

I feel your pain. I've had it all my life. Its constant. I get a high pitched ringing, that comes in waves. I also have a hearing impairment and when I was little I failed every hearing test, the consultant thought I was faking it because my results were so erratic but it's only looking back now that I realise that the frequencies they played me triggered my tinnitus and I was responding to the ringing in my ears, not the sounds in the test!

Which brings me on to my grumble... I'm waiting for a referral to the ENT department to see about hearing aids, they were supposed to be in touch a month ago but I've still heard nothing and have yet to get through on the phone!
The ENT department in my area currently has a 3 year waiting list 😭

Arrived at mil's . . And there, in her kitchen, is a frame of various photos of partner ( her son) with his ex wife on display. . Ok, I get her grand children are in some of them . . But its not ok IMO. . Im sick of it tbh, we've been together 8 years now . . Get some bleeping new photos OR display these in your bedroom where I dont have to see them
End of rant 1.

Rant 2

Been out to a social thing I dont usually attend
I know the people involved but would usually be working tomorrow so wouldn't be there. .
Chatting with someone who is asking me questions and generally socialising. .
Im answering, and she suddenly ignored me and involved herself in another conversation.
Like, HELLO??
I left pretty soon after this but how fuckin rude . .
I really dislike people today, and will probably stay home tomorrow now.


Grrrrrr to everyone and everything today

Today my friend and I went to our local pub for first time in 2 years. £11.75 for 2 drinks?? WTF! We do not live near London so it was a bit of a surprise (shock). Prices haven't just crept up, they have went up like a rocket 🚀🚀😫

My brother. Or actually, myself. Urgh. Bro needs a new website. Deal was, I add him to my hosting with a WordPress site, show him the ropes a bit and he will create his own content /structure.

Well guess what. Mr Helpless who taught himself everything about photography (which is go3s over my bloody head with ISOs and whatever) is too lazy to learn a bit about bloody WordPress - np coding, just clicking a few elements together and adding a few pictures), and now I'm stuck with the whole thing.

Hate that my boundaries are so weak when it comes to family. I should have said No in the first place. 😡

Oohh yes I'd like to rant. My neighbour really annoyed me last night. Her and her new boyfriend that she hasn't been with for long started screaming at each other at 2am. He ended up storming out because she was doing these ear piercing screams and I guess he couldn't handle it anymore. Once he stormed out, she kept screaming and screaming then banging and smashing her place up. I could not take the crap anymore, at 2am, I want to sleep! I ended up phoning the police to do a welfare check on her because she did not sound right and smashing her flat up too. The banging was unreal. Police came within 10 minutes and then an ambulance and they shipped her off to hospital, probably to do a mental health assessment. She came back early in the morning from hospital and all was nice and silent until the next night, her boyfriend was back and they were back at it again!! Arguing. Just not at stupid o'clock this time. It's tit like this that makes me glad I'm single 😅 Thing is, she only just kicked her long term boyfriend out the flat she was living with and a week later, she has a new one and they don't stop bloody arguing! Take the hint girl, stay single for a while! Stop being so noisy, I hear everything! Next time they argue, I'm gonna blast the heaviest metal to top volume.

Bank card keeps getting declined. Off to the bank to find out why. There's nothing on my file explaining why. I've now got to wait for a new one to come through.

And now to change my details when the new card comes through.

I was supposed to be going for food and drinks with my friend this evening. I text her a few hours ago to let her know what time I should be back from an appointment and she’s replied saying she found out yesterday that she has to go to a family thing this evening instead and was “literally just about to text” when I did. Is it just me? That’s rude as tit isn’t it? If you knew yesterday, why didn’t you tell me then when I would have had time to make other plans? 🙄 Clown.
