Mum dubbed 'petty' after refusing to buy colleague a £5 M&S chicken meal deal

A mum who refused to buy her colleague a meal deal from Marks and Spencer has been dubbed “petty” and “unprofessional” by critics.

The woman, who described herself as a “lone parent and broke”, has told of how she decided to pop out from the office for a walk to "stretch her legs" when her colleague, who she doesn't like, asked her to pick up a meal deal if she passed a shop.

New to that particular office, the mum refused to buy a meal deal when she realised the only nearby shop was Marks and Spencer, where a sandwich deal would have cost around £5, the Liverpool Echo reported.
