scab moral dilema

Post by onthestella »

Right fellow RM Chatters, bear with me i need some advice on what to do. There is a guy in my office who has been mouthing off for the last number of weeks that he is going to scab again, i know there is always one or 2 muppets in every office.He scabbed the last national dispute as well, one of about 5% in our office who sold their souls. The thing is ill cut right to the chase, one of my best mates is doing a line with this guys wife of 9 years and she told my mate only last Sunday night that she is 12 weeks pregnant and that the child is his. The reason i bring this up, is the scab got into an argument with one of the girls in the office last week, a lovely girl with 2 young kids 7 and 9 years old,her husband unfortunately passed away 2 years ago leaving her without a washer. This young lady was saying why she was voting Yes to give the Union a mandate to argue for better terms and conditions and try and hold onto the ones we have. But the scab got right in her face saying its every man for himself and sod the union ( he did not use sod by the way ) that he had a kid to support. This guy missus works a cracking job in a accountants where my mate also works , the scab has said on many occasion that is a kept man saying she earns twice whats he is on, even though he is F/T and has schedule O/T.
The Question I want answered is should I mention about my mate and his missus when he is driving past me on 4th November?
My mate does not care by the way if he finds out because he is ex forces and all into his martial arts and the scab knows this. Plus his wife is always saying that he needs to grow a pair to my mate. Txs in advance for reading and advice

Exactly how much Stella have you imbibed?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

stay away from this one mate. It can only bring you trouble. Anyways, by the sound of things, he is going to get his cumuppence in the not too distant future. See how he likes it supporting his mrs and a kid on our pay and some statourary maternity pay. It also sounds from your post that she doesn't really like him! :cuppa

No, never tell somebody there wife/husband is having an affair.

It is none of your business no matter how close you are to either of them.

My advice is to back off and let them work out their own lives.
If you do a job too well, you’ll get stuck with it.

What goes around comes around - his life will fall apart (unless he doesn't care to the same degree that he respects his colleagues) without any assistance from you. A satisfied smile on your behalf is all that is needed - after all there are "innocent" parties involved, particularly children, so back off and the eventual fireworks will light of their own accord.

Christ ! What a car crash :crazy:

Stay well out of it. :shock:

If what you have been told is true then working a strike day is going to be the very last of his worries. Just sit back on this one.

The bottom line is that there is a baby on the way that could have his life ruined because someone wants to score a few cheap points.

Stay well out of it, and leave it to the unfaithful wife to decide if the truth really needs to come out.

When he drives past scream at him, whilst pointing and laughing, 'My mate is f*cking your Mrs' and make sure everyone else on the picket line knows so they can all laugh too.

It will be the worst days work he'll ever do :nana
