I hate being here. I want to cry; murder; leave.
I have been moved today to work with another team. It is pure hell. They don’t know that I speak Italian and thus don’t know that I understand when they swear at me. No one should be called a whore within 2 minutes of meeting their boss.
I am usually very strong and very professional (you have to be in this banking business) but today I just want to run away.
Oh, and I haven’t eaten or drunk anything yet and I’ve been here since 8am.

They are a bunch of shits, don’t listen to them. *big hug* I hope you have a master plan to get out of this crappy team - or is it temporary? Cheapy x

PS, get someone to ring you on your mobile when you’re in front of your boss this afternoon, and launch into a stream of fluent Italian. Then give said boss a Paddington Bear super-hard stare.

Indeed - bankers are frequently a bunch of bastards (phew that’s a mouthful) - just be safe in the knowledge that they have no morals or values worth sharing with the plan and as such they will be reincarnated as slugs…

Thank you dear people - you’re all lovely.
They are indeed (well my boss) bastardi.
Two groups have come to light in my team (of 60) - the majority who are lovely and a small few who are undescribable. Only one of the unspeakables is Italian, and yes it is my big boss. The other guy is English and when I said “Oh you are one of the good guys!” He said “No I am a fucking bastard.” Quite.
What a day… only 40 more minutes…

Just remember Bobble, every day is a day closer to the day you turn your back on the place for good - and a reminder (like you need one!)of why you left the low-life business in the first place. I haven’t missed a day of it since I shut down my screens and walked out seven years ago. Neither will you.

Ah Bobble, that must be truly frustrating. I understand what you are going thru. Whenever I get upset at work and think or KNOW that someone has given me a bad remark in another language, you know what I do? I swear back in the only Tagalog that I know - the bad swear words, and I say it to their face with a smile. Of course they wonder what I just said but well, here is where I apply the principle “eye for an eye”. Hope things get better for you. You are so creative .. and you work at a bank?
