Sorry to create a new thread for this, however

I'd just like to confess that many years ago (when I was still relatively young and stupid), I said some horrendous things to certain posters on here while I was going through a bad time. I saw the red mist. I thought it was clever to try and say the most shocking and 'Frankie Boyle' things possible back then and I still feel deeply ashamed, guilty and apologetic over the comments now.

I'd like to think (and for those who were around at the time to think) that I've matured as a person and am at heart a good, kind, empathetic person who would never genuinely have conviction in such comments. I do hope so anyway.

PS - WeeGord is an amazing person who I'd love to have a beer with.
 
Forget it Scubes.
Over the years we all mature and change our attitudes and responses.

Look ahead to your new job and have a good life.

I wrote something similar on the same thread about something I said in anger to a call centre muppet who wouldn’t (or probably more honestly couldn’t without escalating) budge. Just words on a page. Was instantly remorseful and knew it was wrong. You live and learn

I noticed you initially referred to said person as a ‘customer services monkey’ and now a ‘call centre muppet’.

Might be worth remembering that the north east is home to a large amount of call centres and therefore some people will likely find your use of those terms patronising and / or arrogant.

Yeah I’m not trying to start an argument. No further comment needed, it’s hardly crime of the century obviously, just thought I’d point it out.

Genuinely hope you’re well mate 👍

Was he a muppet for working in a call centre or was he acting like a muppet?

Was more a comment about the robots you speak to when you call a call centre and can’t get anyone who can’t deviate from the norm. See “can’t be arsed” comment above. Hth
 
If I remember correctly someone on here ( the old board actually) said he was asked to do work for outsourcing so he did a load of work for it and presented it to senior management and their reply to it was.....” oh no, we don’t want them to think”!
 
If everyone made a thread about regretting things they have posted, we would need a fmttm sub forum .
dont dwell on mistakes, move on , you can only learn from it 👍
 
Wouldn’t beat yourself up about it, pretty sure everyone has done and said stuff they regret over the years!

I don’t think too many on here take things personally. I mean, why would you ?
