    Call him when he’s on his lunch and leave a message or just send an email and don’t answer when he calls.

    The tide is turning…

    I've said it before and I'll say it again fatfingeritis. I can't bloody type on a phone anymore grrrrrrr

    In work we have two buildings, 400 metres, apart. I offered to got to work from the secondary building in order to avoid close contact with my colleagues ('cos I'm a hero like that) but I haven't been in my real office for 4 months.

    I usually had a keyboard and monitor attached to my laptop, but since then the 'move' I've been exclusively using my laptop and my typing is now atrocious, similar to the fat-finger thing. I mean...it's ridiculously bad! The other day, I had to briefly use a normal keyboard and it felt like debauchery... :pac:

    I work in a public sector office and just like probably every other single office/business on the planet, the last few months have had an inordinate number of emails/correspondence, posters, notices etc in relation to Covid19 yet the girl who sits opposite me and who has been in work every day since the pandemic started and deals with many covid issues refers to it as COVA (pronouncing the 'A' very distinctly) This morning she was asking about a covid payment for an employee and calling it a Cov-AH payment and I asked her to repeat herself 4 times and eventually said 'sorry I have no idea what your talking about' and when she explained, I said 'Oh you mean COVID payment..sorry I hadn't a clue what you were talking about when you kept calling it COVA' and she just looked at me blankly and continued at her work. Less than 15 minutes later she was talking with another person in the office about some news article she had read about Covid and was again calling it COVA...drives me fcuking nuts!!!

    TA'd at mobile phone companies. I don't like the distraction of phone calls or feeling on call , so for that reason I don't court the phone - making spurious phone calls just out of boredom etc.. Partly because I don't want to be on the "receiving end" :pac:

    Anyway, for what E20 a mth I definitely don't get value for money out of the "free":rolleyes: calls and texts to mobiles and calls to landlines.

    My major TA though is that to ring voicemail costs extra - the hungry m"^&er!**%$r! :mad:

    In the words of Joe Pesci (lethal weapon 3 I think~) the mobile/cell phone companies "they fcuk you, they fcuk you, they fcuk you!" :D

    Neighbours ball in the back garden.
    No problem, I'll just give it a good boot back.
    Ball goes high in the air, hits a pole holding up their clothes lines and lands further down back in my garden! Grr!

    Good goalie skills from their clothes line though!

    You should kill her! :pac:

    Wait till no-one else is on the office, then beat her to death with her own keyboard... just remember to wash your hands afterwards. ;)

    Just call it the Chinese virus.

    Just call it the Chinese virus.

    Wuhan flu or Kung flu as president Trump says.

    tie the keyboard to a brush handle so you can maintain social distance

    Drones...

    And the annoying people obsessed with flying them and making pointless stupid arial videos.

    I think I'm going to develop a fighter drone, which can hunt the fcukers down and fire tiny heat seeking cruiser missiles to annihilate them! Or perhaps a drone air defence system, which can take them out from the ground... hmmm out to the shed I go! :D

    I can't for the life of me stay warm at the moment. I ordered an electric blanket and it was supposed to come yesterday but no sign of it yet. Why am I so cold!.

    Was this the box? In which case your watch might've had a point.

    No, true story. The polarisation apparantly works that way.

    It does actually indeed work, my friend.
    But the question is.. How will I get used to reading side ways? :D

    To thine own self be true

    The stupid man that cuts the grass here keeps wrecking my flowerpots with the strimmer. He's shredded dozens of them, often damaging the plants, too. Does my head in. :mad: Would it kill him to watch what he was doing?
