[#8312308]

Just a quick rant, but I'm currently sat at my desk with my boss's 5 year-old daughter sat on a sofa behind me playing cartoons on an iPad and 8 billion decibels and I cannot focus. It's distracting me to the point where I'm getting my smelling wrong and getting words the round way wrong.

FFSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

She's just started it over again!!!

Perhaps becoming a Nanny was a poor career choice?

This might be a radical suggestion, but have you told your boss?

Hmm, that is a tricky problem. Have you considered explaining to her that it's quite loud and telling her nicely to turn it down?

What time do you stop for your primal scream break? Sounds like you might be over due.

Go on, let it all out.

They'd have to be bloody good headphones.

Just don't show her your bits when she comes to the gents toilet later.

I am trying to be mindful, problem is, my mind is full of Peppa Pic, screeching cat noises, horse noises, and the sound of sniffing/coughing.

Are you in a Vet's waiting room?

Just be grateful the boss's daughter doesn't actually work there or stand to inherit the company. It cost my boss over £1 million to buy out his ****less son, who now works for a competitor.

You could place an ad on a website to sell her, see how that progresses.

Don't post pics.

Or send her out for some sweeties..

I blame the parents 😆

Why the hell would a ****less waster (I am one of these) have a job if he's got a million squids?? I'd have a quite nice motorhome and lots of visas in my passport.

Drop a nice egg bomb complete with full Dolby digital soundtrack, she will soon move along especially if you follow through.

Can you put headphones on? Failing that just scream and yell at the child until it is silenced. This will assert your dominance or something and the boss will be impressed too.

I've had a radical idea.

Ask her to turn it down as it's distracting you from your work? You are, I assume, the adult in this relationship?

Here's an idea, grab a brew & five mins on the sofa with her & chill out a bit...
I wish something like this would break the monotony of my life at the cutting edge of pneumatics design.

Kids won't be deterred by farting. Mine sit quite happily in clouds of their own flatulence. I would just glare at her until she was too terrified to be in the same room.

Start swearing in her earshot and ideally in her parents earshot. The parent will soon remove the child.
Or fire up the grot.

Or just talk to the child.
