    That is a VERY nice bra - I love going into their shop but the prices are eye watering even for me (as a lingere lover)!

    Agree with Sammy on this one - the faster you can get out the better - my job before the one I had now was terrible I felt sick going into to work because my boss was a bully...the best thing I ever did was leave!

    Sammy on your OH - I guess it depends - I know you dont have much time together but if he is working hard all week a quick stop in on a mate on Friday isnt too bad is it - it just gives him a chance to let off steam before he comes home...why dont you ask him for a suggestion of something nice to do together on Saturday during the day? Just a thought...

    Its a complicated situation Becky, me and OH....I really don't mind him dropping off to spend some time with his friend, but its the double standard of the situation. If I did something like that the moody strop would not be worth it. So I have given up doing anything for myself when he is at home.

    Sammy I cant step away from figleaves now noooooooo

    (although I do find it hard to see what the bras on there would be like on as all the models have 'larger' busts and mine are tiny and they all look like they have too much material but it could just be the size if that makes sense!!!)

    I am seriously considering texting my manager and telling her...so she knows what the situation is.

    remind me one day to tell you the story about the woman (who was in the same line of business btw - must breed a particular type of biatch) who used to 'try' to bully me years ago...

    She used to tell me I looked so much better when I wore make up....(when I wore it everyday!) among other snide comments........some quite funny actually...:rotfl: but hurt nontheless

    It ended up in a full on punch up, not sure who won, but she ended up breaking down and telling me she hated me cos everyone liked me and no one liked her....

    I blame his mother! Even his mother blames herself.....he comes from a proper working class family where men are men and women look after the men.....he will deny it but he knows its true...:rotfl:

  • Would it be ok to text my manager and tell her, or maybe call her?
    she was the one that told me my new manager was asking about why I didnt work as fast as the other 2 in my team and gave her the facts. She is backing me up 100% but I dont want them to think I am taking the michael.
