1. She picks her nose
2. She farts in meetings and pretends its not her
3. She has had 32 sick days in the last six months
4. She refused to give me any extra money for covering her job during her maternity leave
5. She comes over to talk to me while eating something - banana or an apple usually - then throws the peel/core in my bin so it smells all day
6. She eats with her mouth open
7. She gets into work in the morning and goes straight out into the corridor to phone her husband for at least 30 mins, every day
8. She pretends to know what she's doing, but uses my ideas all the time
9. She emails me questions, then copies my answers into a different email so she can pretend she wrote them herself.
10. Today we had our new director visiting, and she managed to introduce everyone else in the office to the director with the exception of me. This is particularly annoying as the director is about to decide who to make redundant.
11. She has armpit hair. I know this may not seem that annoying, but it is when you have to see it all the time.

Anyone got any more??

Sounds like she needs you, lexie so hopefully you'll be safe. Maybe you could BCC some directors into some emails? Swap bins when she's not looking?

Think you should start giving bogus replies to her emails and see what happens.

Also take a dump in her bin and see how she likes the smell of that all day!

Mine breathed and that was enough. I would sue her if I were you 🙂

Only have a poo at work - that way they are paying for your quality 'me' time and you feel like you are getting your own back in some small way...

A brief description of my last boss,

A liar,

i ask him a question, to which i am told to tell the customer something that i know is not true. I also knew that if it came back on the company i would get it in the neck and he would deny all knowledge

A bully,

went round the site shouting at people,

Was a smoker and stank of stale smoke all the time.

He also rigged the sales figures against the reps, to make them look bad.

I walked out....

Sounds like she has an awesome job. Learn from her.

You are the only person in control of your destiny, only you can make your career progress.

My boss is a grade ' A' c@@@

He talks posh, is 'nice' but delivers nothing and has no leadership.

Maybe I'm just bitter working class!

Well they don't know you exist, she did you a favour.

My boss was getting on my t1ts. I sheepishly mentioned something to one of our new directors on Friday night. Boss handed his notice in today, leaving immediately, citing 'family reasons'. Glad I didn't say I wish someone would just have him taken out...

That's perfectly normal. Be flattered that she values you ideas and opinion so highly. The alternative is being ignored by a boss that only listens to themselves.

As for the rest of it, yes that's quite annoying.

Pee in her bin!

Or 'hide the dook' in one of her desk drawers! If you don't know what that is... one of your colleagues might...
