“How can you not have insurance?”
“Because I spent my money on the Clapco D29, the most impenetrable lock on the market today. It has only one design flaw, the door must be closed!”
“I’m not offended”, insists man
A man accused of being called a number of horrid things at work yesterday, insisted he was ‘not offended’ by any of the comments.
Guy Falls from North London was called a number or politically incorrect terms by a work colleaugue, none of which bothered him, even a bit.
“To be honest, none of that stuff is true, it’s just some guy’s opinion” he said. “What he thinks about me says far more about the kind of person he is than is does anything about me. Anyway, he’s entitled to his opinion, and to be honest, what he or anyone else thinks of me is really none of my business.”
Colleagues of Mr Falls said they were shocked, appauled, and deeply offended at the offensive remarks aimed at someone else, and would be seeking compensation from the firm for the distress caused by the incident.
“It’s disgraceful that someone should be treated in such a way”, said a particularly distressed looking individual, as they rubbed thumb over fingertips. “These responsible for those crimes must be brought to justice”
When reminded that the comments offered were just opinion and not fact, the person replied.
“These people are sick. They may be just opinions, but what if people hear them and start to believe they’re true? I think that people should keep their opinions to themselves”
Mr. Falls was later quizzed again about the incident to which he replied
“Oh, that thing. I’d forgotten about it already. Listen, I’ve just put on a brew, D’you fancy a cuppa?”
HR at the firm are preparing a tribunal which is likely to last 3 months, and cost the company in the order of £50,000 in lost earnings. Mr Falls has indicated that he will not be attending.
