My co-worker is a fountain of misinformation!! 5/14 the day has come page 130

[TPCShauna]

It's Monday!!!


She's a little ticked off about the wedding. Seems that no one was that happy to see them. They showed up at the church and the mother of the bride was surprised to see them after the ceremony. (I bet she was)

Then when they weren't quite sure where the reception was, they just followed someone from the church to the recption hall.

Of course they plopped themselves down at a table and she was quite shocked when they had to set up two more chairs somewhere at another table for another couple. Her comment: didn't this place know how to count chairs? (Well yeah, they had the right amount for the INVITED GUESTS!)

And then it sounds like you made your dinner selection when you returned your response card, so when the waitress came around and asked what they ordered, of course they didn't know what was being served. So the waitress tells them that all that they have extras of is the chicken. Everyone else at their table either had steak or lobster tail. She doesn't understand why she couldn't of had one of those selections.

Oh and she wrapped her picture frame in tissue paper and made a card on the computer. Her last comment to me was that she had BETTER get a thank you card for that frame.

Oh dear heavens! That woman is pure evil! That poor, poor bride.

omg.. i have tears... .that poor wedding couple and parents...

 

[lovetoscrap]

Enquiring minds want to know: Did she manage to get herself into any of the formal photos, since they are "just like family" ?????

 

[Eeyore'sthebest]

That poor bride...I hope she has a good sense of humor when she opens that gift!

If I was part of the bride's family I think I would have to forbid any future contact with the nut job!

How do you work with her daily??!! I think I would have been fired by now because I have a problem keeping my mouth shut.

You've got to warn the bride! If she fails to send a note there's a chance she'll be free of your sociopathic co-worker. She *MUST NOT THANK HER*. I have experience with this sort of person, they don't take hints, you must be blunt with them. Bluntness directed at the oblivious isn't rude, it's necessary.

Seriously, this woman has a boderline personality disorder. She's not just eccentric, she's cruel. I am grateful you can laugh at her, and that you share her idiocy with us.

I would ask if you tried to explain why they had to get more chairs or why they could only have chicken but.............I know that is a hopeless cause. I just don't know how someone can go through life being that clueless and rude.

I hope she does get a thank you card.

Dear Miss I,

Thank you so much for crashing our wedding. We were very surprised to see you there as we DID NOT INVITE YOU. Thank you for ruining our seating arrangement at the reception that we spents months perfecting. Thank you for complaining that you couldn't have steak or lobster. We don't know why we would have extras for uninvited guests. Most of all thank you for the lovely dollar store picture frame that I already have several of. I am sure I will put it to good use.

Sincerely,

The neighbors that do not feel like you are family and want to know WTH you were thinking.

Holy crap! Someone needs to anonymously subscribe her to a Miss Manners daily email list. I would have had her removed from the reception. I would have paid someone to be a "bouncer" and explain to her that it was for invited guests only, while physically removing her rude behind from that extra chair. That woman has got some ginormous steel ones, doesn't she?!


Hmmmm, I'm thinking the next time she mentions having any sort of gathering at her house, a bunch of coworkers need to crash it and pull the same kind of antics.

 

[Evil Genius]

OMG!!!

What a fruit cake...So rude...Awful...How do you not strangle her on a daily basis.

I nominate Evil Genius for Sainthood.

Saint Evil Genius, it does have an interesting ring to it!!

Hmmmm, I'm thinking the next time she mentions having any sort of gathering at her house, a bunch of coworkers need to crash it and pull the same kind of antics.

OHHH she has a family thing at her house coming up on August 11th. Anyone want to go??

Sadly, based upon my experience as a bridal consultant, Miss Information's behavior is increasingly common. More and more weddings are now in fact hiring 'doormen' and bouncers to check guests names off of an approved list. Not on the list? You will be shown the door.

It's sad that we've come to this as a society -- that our entitlement idiocy has grown to such levels that people feel they can not only just show up uninvited but make demands as well. This is COMMON.

 

[curlybop]

She actually followed through with it. Wow. I agree with the above posted "thank you " letter. That would be about all she'd get from me if I were the bride.

Somebody needs to quit giving her a bowl of stupid every day.

I'm now picturng a Ms Manners Gentle Reader addressed to MI.
Giggle.

 

[tink_n_pooh]

I've been lurking on this thread for awhile, this is great. I've learned so much from Miss Information, now I need to go out and hire a bouncer for my wedding.

This was exactly what I was talking about... no invitation? no entrance!!! I wish the bride and/or the Mom had the time to call security to escort her OUT!!!

This is a great idea! Definitely show up uninvited, but make sure to bring a bottle of mad dog or 2-buck Chuck as a hostess gift!

Oooo oooh me!!!!! I want to go!!! Give her a taste of her own medicine. How horribly rude of her!

You have to make sure that you LOUDLY complain about everything when you go. Gee that could be fun--sure wish I still lived close enough to EG--it could be worth the drive up!!!

I have a Miss Miserable at work.

We got a letter in from a customer thanking us for all our hard work with her and her party (300 guests!) last week. The manager read it out and everyone was really pleased that the customer had taken the time to write to us - except her. She said "I should think so too!". Umm hello? You're PAID to do this job. All we did was our job. It was nice that our efforts were appreciated by the customer enough that she took the time to write in!

I also had a customer that I needed to sign something, so I grabbed the pen next to me. Standard biro. She snatched it out of my hand and hissed, "NO, that's MY pen.".

I had to go find another pen! There was nothing distinctive about this pen! If I hadn't had a customer there I would have said something immediately. Unfortunately her shift finished and she left before I had finished with the customer, so I was unable to approach her on it. I did tell my manager that I wasn't prepared to be spoken to like that (I am a temp, she is permenant). They apologised on her behalf (which they needn't do) and said that they had a number of issues to take up with this particular employee...

 

[DisGirlAllie]

I think I just broke something important laughing. Oh well...

 

[stitchntiggertoo]

O.M.G!!!! I stumbled on this thread by accident several weeks and I have been floored since I found it, but this recent stunt just takes the cake. I don't even have the words to describe what I think of her and info...
E.G. I don't know how you tolerate her with everyday!

 

[Stacerita]

She didn't get why she couldn't have steak or lobster???? Ummm hello, you didn't get an invite, therefore you didn't get an RSVP card either. And what a biotch to blame the bride for not counting enough chairs. Im sure there was some sort of assigned seating. And how crazy she must be to not realize she wasn't assigned a seat. I would have asked her to leave. I've seen people being asked to leave weddings on that show "who's wedding is it anyways" so its not that uncommon.
