Things That Trivially Annoy You.

Simple bathroom etiquette:

1. Squeeze the toothpaste from the bottom of the tube.
2. Put the cap back on the toothpaste after you've used it.
3. Replace the toilet roll when you've used the last of it.

These things annoy me when they aren't done.

This is why I refuse to share a bathroom with anyone I'm not related to or sleeping with.

People who mumble down the phone while on loudspeaker & standing approx. 15km away from their phone and then get highly affronted when they are asked to repeat themselves.

My keyboard is old and the 'N' has totally disappeared and the 'M' is on it's way out. I can touch type but it's still a bit of a TA

Red Cross hard sell .I get an envelope with two Christmas cards to use , two sheets of Christmas wrapping and a full sheet of labels with my name and address on it to use .
That is so I am guilt tripped into sending money in the prepaid envelope .Well I won't because I don't want my donation wasted on sending multiple envelopes to multiple people with this wasteful nonsense

Surreptitious

I'm having the day from HELL. I missed the postman by a minute and he left a sheet for me to collect my package so I went up there only for them to tell me he wasn't back yet. The time on the docket was illegible. Traffic is a nightmare and I popped into the shop to get something, by the time I got back to the car two vans double parked and blocked me in. I asked one of them to move and he ignored me. I was 20 minutes sitting there until one driver eventually let me out. And I still have a shift at work to put in yet.

I've received multiple versions of this type of thing over the last few weeks, seems an awful waste of resources.

Look at it this way - the name of the charity is probably written on the back of those cards, so if you send them you're advertising for them.

They're all gone to the recycling bin, mostly unopened.

I had ONE job to do for my college assessment and I bowloxxed that up, now I have to wait a few days for it to be cleared!!!!!!
I was given clear instruction as well as those in writing, so I would NOT do the exact thing I did.


So sick of myself now.

Two things:
How is it that in Poland they switch on the Xmas lights and do the Xmas markets on Dec 1st and we (or rather our traders and business interests) feel the need to switch on lights in mid Nov?

On flight home, pilot announces various places that we are to be flying over on route back to Ireland. Woman across the aisle whinges to her OH that we are going miles out of our way. I somehow doubt she's an airline pilot or flown anything bigger than a child's helium balloon. Go on up to the cockpit and take the controls off him, love.

Ran out of coffee beans this week as my amazon delivery is now 2 weeks despite saying it was despatched. Went to Tesco to buy 1kg of beans for approx one third the cost of 6 x 1kg of the same beans on amazon. Self-service tills not working so had to join main queue. Join shortest queue of 3 - all with full trollies. All 3 look at me and see I have 1 item. Did any of them ask me would I like to go ahead as I only had 1 item? Did they f*ck. C*nts.

I'd like to say I'll never let anyone ahead of me in future as some sort of revenge, but no, I'm too polite (despite the use of the C word above....).

Too much. All getting too much. 7 moves in 1 year. Job move. No access rights. So much work to be done. Colleagues trying but too busy to help. Feel like crying this morning.

So a new pub in the city has come out with names for their cocktails. One was called 'Our Wee Sambo'. Apparently there was an uproar on social media because Sambo is a derogatory name for a black person. What?

So the pub have had to come out publically and say "oh no lads, that was a typo on the menu, it's actually called 'Our Wee Samba'."

As far as I'm concerned a Sambo is a sandwich. Samba doesn't make sense at all. ****ing social media warriors, saving the world one cocktail at a time. :rolleyes:

Deep breath NG.. Go with the flow. You can only do what you can and it takes a few weeks to really settle into a new job. You've escaped from the "coven" in the old job and "thumper", give yourself a break and try to relax. x

In the 70's sambo wasnt exactly acceptable in The Netherlands, because of above reasons. So when i moved here many years ago and saw it used for a sandwich it was confusing for a few seconds.

But nowadays you can bet some dipstick will take a picture and put it on twitter, whether it is totally out of context or not.
