Got a real scare today :-(


Sarah 350z

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

So today driving to work gave me a right old scare! There was guys out doing road works right outside my work and had cones clearly laid out. There was also a section for people turning right into where I work so obviously I turned down but the guys had blocked it off with cones at the other side which I hadn't seen and there was no signs telling me. I noticed a gap in the cones that I could comfortably get my 350z out back onto the road so I stuck my indicators on and a wee kind lady flashed me out as I started to move off a guy in his 40's came storming over to me howling abuse giving it stacks arms in the air and everything I then @*!# myself and thought had they already done the road which thank god they hadn't so I looked back up at him and said "I'm sorry I got a little confused" his response was "are you f**cking thick what are you doing are you a f**cking retard" and he kept going can't remember what else he said I quickly drove off as he was fast approaching me I honestly believe if I sat there he was for squaring me up. For me being a 23 year old girl that was a scary moment I was shaking for a while after.

 

But I do wonder should I have phoned the police cause that behaviour is just not on!!??

Then I'm with Dblock - he may be the Boss but find the company and complain (they sometimes have a number up on the roadworks signs) or just rant at us lot and feel better knowing not everyone is an arse :thumbs:

Did your boss notice you were upset when you arrived at work this morning ?

 

I think you should ask them to go and make a complaint first thing in the morning on behalf of you and the other staff.

 

There's no need for behavior like that.

He did indeed and only that he was in the middle of an operation he would of gone out there himself to complain

Absolutely no need for that kind of behaviour, if you know the company involved I would definitely complain and get your boss to back you up, can understand why you would have been scared!

 

I was unsure if I was over reacting or not but after all your comments I think use are right as my dad said to me I bet he wouldn't have done it to another man

Bollocks to all that move on @*!#.

 

Go to local gym

Locate biggest 'heed' you can find (probably Neil by now if he's on the roids)

Slip 10 quid

Drive back

Perform same manoeuvre with window down

Invite **** to come and have a chat again

Watch shrinkage akin to testicles being dunked in ice water

 

The problem with people like that is no one ever stands up to them and every now and again the feckless, micro cocked, ginsters eating, public toilet pebble dashing, undoubtedly useless parent, impotent cretins of the world need putting right back in their box.

Holy moly if your free tomorrow morning do you wanna come to work with me?

 

Whenever I was 15/16 ish I wouldn't of had a problem shouting back at him I probably would off squared him up myself but things change and I just wouldn't have the guts to do it now especially being on my own.

 

Gutless yea I know lol

No point dwelling. We all have bad days, you've just been unlucky today. Tomorrow should be better. Worse case scenario, you could always run him over tomorrow. Or bring out a laxative laced cup of tea out for him.

 

Hmm laxative cup of tea now that I could arrange...

Errr gutless.......40 year old navvie screaming at you?! No that's not gutless. Gutless is screaming like a **** at a 23 year old girl who took a wrong turn.

 

Apart from anything in this day and age he could be some sort of psychotic deranged type who ends up killing you for answering back!

 

Lastly I'm about 8 stone wet and far less hard than the squirrel of my avatar......unless you need some form of human shield I will be of little use.

Deffo complain about that, even if he was the boss he'd still be a contractor and that language is unacceptable to use to a member of public no matter what. And if he is just a worker the bosses wouldn't want that image associated with their company. Name and shame them.

 

Alternatively carry a stun gun with you and shoot the next guy in the balls who talks to you like that!

And on the other side...

 

 

Let's say that Sarah drove over something very important in the road that they'd spent the last day or night prepping, or she'd gotten in the way of a very important maneuver that was likely to put either herself or her car in jeopardy. I'm thinking something like a crane about to drop a load or whatever. Perhaps the guy had had numerous people drive the wrong way into a clearly coned off area, and it was just bad luck that Sarah actually stopped and got the brunt of his irritation at the complete lack of awareness from some drivers. We've only got one side of the story here. Perhaps the guy wasn't as aggressive as the OP says, maybe more sarcastic, or maybe Sarah made her comment in a bit more of a flippant way.

 

 

I'm not saying anything like that happened, and I dare say the original story is probably bang on the truth, but all it was was a few harsh words from a bloke in a hi-vis. I wouldn't particularly let it ruin my week, and I'd just stew on it a bit and then carry on with life. I certainly wouldn't bother complaining about it. Next time it happens give as good as you get back, my missus certainly does. :)
