As if mumsnetters didn't already panic and lose their minds about enough pointless tit, apparently everybody should be keeping their GCSE certificates in a fireproof box

I can’t remember the last time I was asked to show qualifications at a job interview. I think it was when I was a new graduate. After a certain amount of time, all an employer cares about is the experience you have. Not what you got in your GCSEs in 1994!

No, you just have to do a best guess at which limpet hit the “report post” button when you told them to get a grip of n a variety of threads.
You just find you can’t log on… 🙄 because even the bleeping mods don’t want confrontation.

edit: they go NC with their users.

Where’s the power-trip in an automated email saying “we’ve closed your account due to breaking our rules”?

Far more mean girl attitude with having someone (getting banned the first time) emailing and saying “hi,I tried to reset my password but I can’t log on” and a PA reply…

first response would make you flick the Vs at the screen - second is designed to humiliate.

The thread about the poster who binned the wedding invite she just received from a bride, in front of said bride is quite amusing

OP not accepting that she was rude and said well I put the details in my phone so why wouldn’t I throw it out

Fair enough but not straight away and not in front of the person who gave it to you two mins ago 😂

It makes me think she couldn't stand having this superfluous bit of card in her house one moment longer than necessary. Oh, the clutter!

I really want to go to France, but am worried I might bump into to many mumsnetters. How do I keep them away?! Tell everyone in France uses loo brushes?!

Don’t worry, not many of them actually go there because they don’t leave the house. They’re just relying on the few that have been there to tell them how thin all the French women are and how fat all the tourists are.
 
What's the point of everything in a fireproof box?

There are two scenarios if my house burns to the ground.

1) I survive, either by escaping or not being in. I simply replace everything.

2) I don't survive. That is what a will tracing service is for.

I do have everything together, but that is for ease and order. Certificates are all in my National Record of Achievement., which is far more useful than a firebox and was given to me for free.

Anyone find any more out?

Last I read was that she was claiming that she wasn't going to be a drama queen about it, but co-worker had been shirty with her all day having arrived late. It was far too much drama, and what on earth is the job that you commute an hour to and work 12 hour shifts every day? She talked of a 'shop floor' but then also production department and packing department.

Oh and something about tuna sandwiches whilst she sat in the back seat because it was safer.
