Money bores!!!

[Greedo]

Just spent a lunch with one of these.

Met with a couple of Mrs Greedos pals. One couple are great and really like them. The other is her best friend who is a great girl and very fond of her and her new boyfriend of a couple of months who she herself has told Mrs Greedo she's not too sure about.

I had the pleasure of sitting next to this clown, as normally I like that and meeting new people. I'd never met him before

This guy however was something else. During a couple of hours in his company he told me all un prompted I might add as no one else at the table is remotely like this in any way:-

How much he earned
How much his last bonus was
How many times he's been promoted
How much he spent on his last holiday
How much profit he made on the sale of his flat. (stays with his parents at the moment, though)
Type of cars he's owned in the past.

As if I give a shoot!

He also asked me during this lunch:-

How much my business turned over last year
How much was my house worth (he's never seen it but knows roughly where it is)
How many people I employed and what was my monthly wage bill
What car did I drive

All of which he was told in as polite as way as I could to f*ck off and mind his own business.

What a w*nker of a guy. You could even see Mrs Greedos pal rolling her eyes and cringing.

Don't think he'll last much longer!

Does my head in, people that focus on that stuff, or want to talk work/business when that's not the point of the occasion.

Yet you seem to think we should know so much about your life....

What you wear
How many guests you have for Christmas
When you go for lunch
When Mrs Greedo goes shopping
etc
etc
etc
etc

I would have thought you and he would have got on like a house on fire

Wow, I felt that one from here, and I thought I'd been a bit harsh to Greedo some times

I know, the irony is almost delicious....

That's hardly money orientated though fella. You must find it semi interesting old bean as you always reply

I might need to have a wee chat with you soon regarding the PM's a couple of weeks ago. Will have a better idea in a couple of weeks though!

I didn't realise you felt that way about me

Yes, it's very boring when someone tells a bunch of strangers about their wine collections, expensive watches, paintings, selection of rare whiskies etc, isn't it?

 

[MacB]

I really must get into Cafe more, far more vicious than P&L

Oh, I don;t know:

Clothes cost money.
Guests cost money.
Lunch costs money.
Shopping costs money.


And so does the subject of our PMs

No no, when you do it like that it's scitillating. Just banging on about money is sooooo vulgar. Or something like that.

Frankly, Greedo, I think you've just had a taste of the way some of us feel when we log on and find you've been busy again.

 

[Over The Hill]

Is it not down to knowing the price of everything and the value of nothing?

 

[rich p]

Oh, delicious irony!!!

Don't be too hard on Greedo, you lot, I don't know what time he put the kettle on yet
