    I’m in trouble again.

    That woman that complained about my use of bad language in official e-mails (I used the term ‘gagging for it’) has accused me of ‘encouraging juvenile behaviour’ in some of the staff at one of my client’s. This is because a couple of guys burst out laughing at her in the preamble to the morning meeting and ‘made gestures’ during her presentation.

    The story that has gotten back to me is that before their meeting got underway they were having a chat and mrs snotty nose was trying to sound cool but being grandiose by talking about having a roman shower with her husband this morning. Two guys that knew about the paraphilia meaning openly laughed at her. During the meeting they were making slight gestures about being sick.

    After the meeting she has gone to the boss and complained about ME! I am a bad influence on them.

    Boss called the guys in and apparently told them that they had put him in a difficult position; he had trouble not laughing himself. I know that he hates her and wants her gone so nothing will come of it.
    How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

          Perhaps she was lifting the veil on their early morning activities

            What she meant, I presume, was at her home they have a 'walk-in shower' and this morning she shared it with her husband.

            Mmmmmmmm.


            But why is it my fault that she made a fool of herself.

              Obviously without your corrupting influence they would not have dared to fail to treat her with the respect and deference she so clearly deserves

                no. I've worked with similar pretentious twats.

                The best one was, at the top of her voice to impress the IT Director
                "There's a high class delicatessen near my house that does this wonderful salad with pomegranate sprinkled on the top, really is delicious"

                It was only moaning about this down the pub later that a friend chimed in with

                "high class delicatessen my arse, she means 'Spa'"

                It was of course too late then, but would have been superbly witty and cutting and career limiting if thought of and delivered at the time.
