‘My colleague advised me I used to be boring on the Christmas Social gathering and I am mortified’

A girl says she desires to give up her job after she was advised her colleagues thought she was “very boring” at an workplace Christmas get together.

The mum stated she was on her greatest behaviour for the occasion as she had solely simply joined her firm and had a historical past of “getting too drunk”.

Taking to Mumsnet to ask if she was proper to be offended, the mum stated she had stayed together with her colleagues for the entire evening even going for drinks afterwards underneath “a lot of pressure” which noticed half the workforce go away and half keep.

In her put up, the lady stated she had loved her evening till she was approached by a male colleague.

Her put up learn: “I went on to the bar and had a lovely time dancing and chatting. Until one of my male colleagues came over and said to me ‘I’ve been discussing this out and we think you’re nice bit very boring’.

“I used to be so upset and offended and advised him to naff off principally. I then went and sat down to assemble my issues to depart at which level he came to visit and tried to have interaction in dialog.

“I told him I was hurt and offended by his comment and he claimed he’d said nothing of the sort and I’d imagined it. But other people heard him say it.

“He then stated I’d made a mistake, no apology.

“Full blown gaslighting, he was obviously annoyed I’d pulled him up on his rudeness and when I was leaving he hit me ‘accidentally’ twice on the head with his coat.

“I’m so harm. I really feel like resigning.”

Almost all of the responses to her post said the man was being an “a**gap” and told her not to let him ruin the evening or put her off the job.

One commenter replied: “Honestly this bloke feels like an fool, was he drunk? Either manner there’s no excuse for his behaviour however I believe resigning is a bit drastic. He will most likely really feel like a proper idiot within the morning.”

Another added: “A***gap will probably be a**holes, smile and nod and stroll away. He most likely will not even keep in mind what he is stated.

“The best form of revenge is success, definitely not worth resigning over.”
