Walter Mitty's and the fake persona they try to show..?

Just seen on FB its someone close in the families birthday, had a click in his profile and what he claims to have been previously employed as... Ex Corporal RAF Police, Ex RAF Firefighter, Ex Civilian Firefighter, Ex long service Royal Engineer & Uni Grad.... Now working for the MOD...

When in fact they did do 2 years at Army foundation college Harrogate and came out of the RE after 4 years post Harrogate service at 22years old but did none of the rest and does not work for MOD but in fact works in retail in Yorkshire. People like that really boil my piss

People that walk along the street watching videos on their mobile. Pay attention to where you are going you knobgobblers.

Also people with zero spatial awareness or awareness of their immediate surroundings. Not walking directly in front or or across someone is really, really not that hard.

I hate commuting.

mate we got one at work .. its really hard to deal with him

he is a complete fantastist

he has admitted on FB in a long post that he lied that he was injured in combate when really he was in the navy 6 months and had an accident.. so he used the injured in combant to get better treatment!

1/3 of my room is ex forces

they cant stand him

I personally cant stand him because I feel he trying to buy his way into peoples good books and comes accross smarmy

we said we didnt want him up here when we found out about his past but apparently it doesnt matter that he is a proven liar and a theif

People like that annoy me so much.

I've experienced that myself, first gym I ever worked in was a young lad working there claiming who he had served with and where he'd gone. I said not a word to him till one he walked in changing rooms and I was just getting changed and he saw the rather large tattoo on my ribs of my cap badge he went white as a sheet as he knew that it represented the exact brigade he was giving it large about, I just smiled at him and said maybe cut the BS because some of us have really been there. He never mentioned it again and I didn't have to openly belittle him in front if his little friends.

Problem with this guy is he has been on that walker Mitty site

Admitted his lies on FB
And now still comes out with the odd BS tale about how he lost his leg

Thank God he failed the training for my job id hate to have to deal with his lies about the job.. you would be thinking your dealing with something major then find out an hour later it was something so minor and he made half it up

Unfortunately there are some 'still serving' I've come across more than a few fantasists - some at a very, very high ranks in all three services where they often become as bad as the politicians (if not worse) but trade on and hide behind the "officer and a gentleman - so don't question my integrity" tab. :mad::mad:
