    Yes. But it doesn't have the same effect when you work for yourself.

    LMFAO!

    I called one of my bosses a "patronizing bastard" with that mean "don't f*ck with me face" once. It done the trick and scared him. He never came near me again but a few weeks later one of the other managers in the place sacked me over something petty.

    Where i use to work a manager's wife was pregnant. My girlfriend was pregnant at the same time. He asked me one day "seeing as your not married will you be going to England for an abortion". It took 3 people to drag me off him after I'd punched and kicked him unconscious. Quit the same day.

    Nope, but told my boss one day that she was more or less useless.

    Took me awhile to come back from that.

    I knew a guy who worked for Hertz in Cork Airport for about 6 months.

    Did the interview, got the job - all was rosy. Do you have a full driving license? - "'Course I do Boss - I'll bring it in on Monday". After being asked countless times he eventually got pissed off with the job (moving lots of new expensive cars around the country) and stapled his provisional license and his uniform to the Bosses door, with a little FU note.

    Legend? sounds like a tool!

    So, he lied about qualifications for a job to get it, then when asked for evidence of these non existent qualifications he got all indignant and quit. But not only did he quit he was an as'shole about it and also left his provisional behind (that'll show that boss).
    Sounds like a right hero alright :rolleyes:

    I have also told my current boss that I would burn his house down with his family inside if he used any jobsbridge people to replace workers he had just laid off.

    Are you a scumbag?

    Just over 2 years ago, came head to head with my boss who although we never clicked, we learned to tolerate each other well until this day, we were rubbung each up the wrong way all day so not only did I call him every curse name I could think of bit decided to make a scene and storm out. Was well embarassed when I realised I had left my handbag and keys behind me and had to go back in and get them. Not a proud moment

    No, by daytime I'm a mild mannered janitor but at night I patrol the mean streets of this broken city as The Avenger.

    This one time my c*nt of a boss asked me where the toilets were. I told that ****er to go down the hall, push through the second door on the left and it's just past the motha****in' water fountain.

    Taught him a lesson or two.

    He never asked again.

    That reminds me of the time my boss asked me how my progress was going with this project I was working on. Well, I tore him a new one. I told him to **** off and stop cramping my style and asked him to step outside (once I clocked out of course) to sort it out like men if he wanted.

    I then proceeded to have anal sex with him while my co-workers cheered me on.

    He was actually decent enough about it afterwards and called me to apologise.

    The boss's niece texted me a few days after the incident and agreed that he was an overbearing pig.

    I worked with someone whom I got on well with until she was promoted to office manager. We had a flexible attitude to what time we would go to lunch at as long as it was between 12 and 2pm and only was an hour. I was working away and even though I would usually go for lunch at 12.30, because I was so wrapped up in what I was doing I didnt notice that it was about 1pm. The "boss" hadn't gone for lunch and was on the phone so I waved at her to let her know I was going. When I came back in just before 2pm she called me into her office which was only really a thin divider wall from the front of the public office and started shouting at me that she had been meant to meet a client at 1.30pm and because I wasn't there and the receptionist had gone for lunch, she couldnt leave. She had not told me about this meeting and I was really shocked.

    A woman had come into the front office and was chatting at the reception when the Boss started going mental at me and screaming more and more about the fact that she was "the manager". I very calmly said "I may not know much about management but I do know its not appropriate to scream in your staff's face in front of clients." I got up and went back to my desk and she followed me still screaming at me so I packed my stuff into my bag and told her I wasn't going to be talked to like that and left.

    The boss from head office rang me about an hour later to beg me to come back and they would sort it out and I said there was no way I could work with a witch like that. It helped that this was a Thursday and I had my letter of resignation printed out with the intention of handing it in the next day to work 2 weeks notice so got a bit of a holiday too!

    Drunk at Christmas party told my boss she was the biggest living bitch i'd ever worked for. Listed everything she'd ever done what I thought of her and what the rest thought. Next day in work she appoligised to us all!! It lasted a month of her being nice then she reverted back to being a bitch. One busy day we were out the door with work and she started on us I snapped said it all again walked out! Owner rang next day asked me back moved her to another department. It has made me a better manager I would never talk or treat a nyone the way she did

    Many moons ago, i was working For a Large Department store in South Dublin, in the furniture section. the head of the company's nephew was working with me there putting together furniture for display. It was leaving cert results day, and he was off, I was trying to build a King size bed, when one of the managers* came over and was started hasselling me and was like "why isnt this done yet?!?" (i'd just started it)

    Told her to **** off and leave me work in peace for while


    to which she wimpered a reply. "i'll... i'll check up on you when your done"

    needless to say, never got hasselled again :pac:




    *absolutely lovely girl, see her in town the odd time. One of them people where the companys their life,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,360 ✭✭✭Wompa1


    Yeah. Worked in a toy store. The Nintendo DS Lite was going on sale, we had been taking pre-bookings for months. We had told everyone who was too late to pre-order that they were free to come in on launch day at 2pm to try and get one that wasn't picked up.

    My boss ordered us to start selling to people an hour early so I told him to F**k off and refused. Didn't get fired but also didn't win the argument. Was just told to ensure we kept an eye on the list of pre-bookings and to stop selling to general public if we got down to only having 50 or so left

    More like a fucking eejit than a legend if you ask me......Did he have to go back to ask for his licence when he realised he needed it the next time.

    Either that or your mate is making shit up. He got a job with a car hire firm and got fed up when he realised he had to move cars from A to B........hmmm

    Had an accident in work a year or so ago.

    Ended up talking to the PIAB about it. When the job found out, the HR manager of the company pulled me into a meeting with no witness. Proceeded to accuse me of lying about my injuries and exaggerating my medical reports for money (how I could exaggerate them when three doctors wrote them is beyond me!). Cue me telling her to shut up until she'd calmed down. This píssed her off, so she told me she'd be refuting the assessment and not allowing it to go ahead. 'Right so, píss off and I'll see you in court,' says I.

    3 days later, the company made me a large monetary offer. :pac:

    I didnt tell the boss to f**k off, I only poured a pint of water over his head. And it wasnt for a joke and he wasnt happy and all I could say 'ah are you all wet' - thats when I was younger and bolder.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,188 ✭✭✭✭Galwayguy35


    Only on one occasion when I was blamed for something I didn't do, it takes a lot for me to loose my temper but being accused in the wrong really grinds my gears.

    Told the manager to f off and stormed out.

    I was lucky though as I got another job soon afterwards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,547 ✭✭✭Agricola


    Had a complete twat of a boss when I was around 17. Manager of a supermarket, he was a real David Brent type but actually malicious with it. He actually grabbed me by the arm a couple of times and marched me over to whatever aisle spill or other international incident needing sorting. He took his job as seriously as a brain surgeon. Oh, how I wish my 30 year old self could have met him.
    Sadly he was moved on by senior management about a month before I left myself so I never got to shít in his desk drawer, or whatever it is all you rebels do in this situation!

    "Go fück yourself, you fücking rhinoceros" I believe we're the words I used, before I made my permanent exit from the kip. Cutting a long story short, big fat vile daughter of the companys owner, and one lazy cünt to boot. I was doing her work and my own because she kept fücking off on shopping trips and hitting the hairdressers. Not that it made any difference to her appearance. She was so fat she'd put dent in a bus but her layers of fat would ensure she walked away unscathed.

    Anyway, she probably got an earful off me that day that everyone else was afraid to say.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 550 ✭✭✭Erper


    well...

    instead of f+++ off i used " take a walk and leave me to do my job"
