A WOMAN working from home alongside her partner had not realised he was such an annoying dick in the workplace.
Nikki Hollis was unprepared for the side of husband Steven’s personality that has turned out to be a self-important middle-management tosser.
She said: “I thought Steve was a wonderful husband – kind, considerate, funny. But after finding out what he’s like at work I’m tentatively thinking, ‘Maybe get divorced?’
“I’ve heard his Zoom calls for days now and he’s got this awful nasal voice and interrupts people all the time. He’s started walking around while speaking, like he’s giving a f**king TED talk.”
Hollis said she was sure she heard Steven use the word ‘synergy’ at one point, but was not ready to face up to what that could mean for her marriage and kids.
She added: “He’s just such a dick. I’m honestly not sure if he’s about to be sacked or be promoted. And his harmless banter with ‘Susan’ is just puke.”
Steven is currently oblivious to this marital tension and is turning their spare room into an ‘imaginarium’ from which he will be able to host ‘blue-sky brainstorms’ and ‘inspire-a-thons’.
