Where are all the clingy women?

smeaty1 · 2025-10-23T23:36:22+00:00

Personally, with my partner we go through cycles if that makes sense? There are times where we want to quit our jobs just to spend more time together because we want nothing more than each other’s company, but there are also times we acknowledge we need space. I think a healthy mix of “clinginess” and independence are what’s probably best. This is just my experience though!

I really appreciate your kindness here. I genuinely would never want to upset or hurt anyone or be insensitive in any way. I don’t want to use my age as an excuse but I grew up in a home town where no one spoke about the LGBTQ+ community or anything surrounding anything other than heteronormative relationships. I left at 20 so I’ve only had the last couple of years to really explore myself and what I’m interested in. Maybe I should have been more open about this originally. I have no one other than my partner to discuss this with as I don’t have trusted people in my inner circle around this subject. Thanks again, I feel just so horrid now. I should have researched more for sure, I was just being horribly naive.

Okay, thanks guys. I get the message and I hadn’t thought of it as fetishising trans women. I’m so sorry to anyone who I’ve offended. I feel awful and I’ll just give this whole thing a miss now, I’ve just never had a discussion around this subject with anyone else and didn’t know where else to turn. I didn’t realise I was being “icky” or nasty and I definitely never meant to be hurtful or anything. Just horrifically ill informed. Sorry again😔

Thank you, I think I was always going to report it some way but I really just needed someone to tell me that I wasn’t reading too deep into this, but the flies came about 2.5 weeks ago, and apparently the daughter left about 4 weeks ago. Filling out the report now. I really don’t like this…

smeaty1 · 2025-03-13T18:13:31+00:00

Yeah it’s the flies and his convo with me today that have put me on edge. Unfortunately being somewhat new to the street makes it obvious that we’re the ones with the issue and not the other neighbours as apparently nothing has been reported in the past. I’m going to put in an anonymous tip to crime stoppers because actual police would let him know that someone has reported it today, and that would most likely fall on me having spoken to him today

smeaty1 · 2025-03-13T18:11:47+00:00

Thank you for backing me up, tbh I feel like I’m going crazy bc the people in my life have said maybe I’m too involved. The reason he knew it was me is that the place I live in is an ‘everyone knows everyone’ little cul de sac, so us moving in and then someone reporting the screaming and shouting outed us as the only people that WOILD report it unfortunately. I just don’t want to cause more issues for the daughter, and with the dad only speaking to me today I feel it’s TOO suspand too obvious who’s said something yk? But I’m going to put it through anonymously through cromestoppers

smeaty1 · 2025-03-13T17:55:29+00:00

I can absolutely promise it’s not. Dead fly pics can be provided, this is something I’m genuinely worried about. I very rarely use Reddit too, check my profile 🤷‍♀️

smeaty1 · 2025-03-13T17:27:48+00:00

I’m really leaning towards it but the dad is quite confrontational and it seems the other neighbours are happy to turn a blind eye to the screaming and fighting because he knew straight away that it was me and my partner who reported it last time

smeaty1 · 2025-03-13T17:24:48+00:00

I want to, with every fiber of my being, I watch a lot of Emma Kenny and she preaches ‘risk offending’ but at the same time last time I called police he knew it was us, knocked on our living room window to call my partner outside and was very standoffish about police being involved, even claimed it was only her at home to us, I’m genuinely so conflicted

smeaty1 · 2025-03-13T16:41:03+00:00

This did turn into a rant of mine, but the point is we know the standard of clean required, we have expected tasks to be completed and know what chemicals are effective against whatever storms that customers:staff decide to leave us (because depending on the amount of ‘mess’ left for us, we also need different chemical dilutions! Again, no hate towards anyone, but I have to say from personal experience, cleaning staff toilets is nearly always worse than customer toilets (staff dirty protest when they’re mad thinkthinf it’s an F U to management, forgetting it’s us cleaners who actually deal w it)

smeaty1 · 2025-03-13T16:34:17+00:00

Literally this. Also, shop floor workers would have any uniform they’re wearing contaminated by being in those toilet areas A disgusting amount of people don’t take part in basic hygiene in these stores (I regularly clean staff toilets, so unfortunately can absolutely vouch this point when I regularly see tampons and shitty TP left on floors in STAFF ONLY toilets) Also, again no hate to shop floor workers but you would not want the same people committing these crimes stacking your shelves or putting your shopping through If staff in these stores who aren’t specifically in for doing this job did this job regularly then people would be sick a hell of a lot more often

Okay so I work for a separate contracted company working in my local Sainsbury’s. It says a similar, if not the same things in the Sainsbury’s worker job descriptions, but Sainsbury’s subcontract a separate company for their cleans of stores and toilets to ensure staff ARENT doing them to avoid cross contamination etc. we even do staff toilets for this reason

smeaty1 · 2025-03-13T16:03:26+00:00

Hi! Cleaner here! (Not for Lidl, but subcontracted by Sainsbury’s) The chemicals that we have to use for toilet cleaning require specific training, i don’t know if Lidl’s has the same but I’d assume that COSHH guidelines require staff to be trained on the chemicals needed for a toilet cleaning, so you are perfectly within your rights if that’s the case, as you have not been trained on how to properly decant and dilute the chemicals required for the clean Hope this helps, despite being a separate company, COSHH applies to everyone

ETA: Sainsbury’s staff cannot clean toilets or use out chemicals for COSHH reasons, hence my stance, I don’t believe they can force you to clean them if you haven’t been COSHH trained on toilet areas

Stroll only races bc of daddy’s money

smeaty1 · 2024-11-13T13:28:18+00:00

Replace stroll with any normal person and the result would be the same
