    Have an exam coming up.

    Got an extra lesson today, because it's real soon.

    Meant to be an hour, so I put an hour and a half in the pay and display yoke.

    And hour and 37 minutes later I arrive back at my car to find some guy taking photos of my car. Well, my car and the big yellow clamp on one of the f*cking wheels.

    €120 gone, just like that.

    For f*ckin f*ck sake.

    Edit: I wouldn't be so angry if there were no other spaces, but the place was half empty.

    I can't stand those stupidly annoying lists on Facebook - those ones that say things like "these are the top twenty names of women who are going to get married/get pregnant/have quintuplets /become a serial killer/join the nunnery/win the lotto/go bald and tubby in 2020!" All of the names in the list are fairly common. Cue a bunch of eejits tagging their friends and "oh yu knw it hun lol" responses.

    I got clamped in our own parking space and my fella got so angry (he wasn't the angry one usually) he put a bar into the U part of the lock and beat the lock with a sledge hammer til the lock popped open. Then he took the clamp and lock and used their popped lock to clamp the sign saying clamping in operation. The clamp was removed and heard no more about it

    1. People who come over to my touchscreen laptop, touch the screen and wonder what happened there.

    2. Eejits asking eejit questions at meetings and holding us all up.

    It's a TA cos I can't figure it out...

    Just got a leaflet in the door from Iceland (the shops), now a quick look at Google maps tells me the nearest shops are 81 and 85 Km away. I believe they sell mainly frozen and chilled foods. I can't see many people from this neck of the woods going that distance for frozen stuff.

    I got one before from them announcing shop in Galway about 110 Km away..

    More recycling

    i get this all the time from a hardware store about 45minutes drive away
    can they not see that they are wasting their time and money. if you were to drive you would pass 2 local creameries, 3 hardware stores and a b and q. its not like they are selling anything that any other shop wouldnt have. every half decent shop would have them. stuff like a garden hose real or fold up table all for the same price as every where else

    those fold up tables are 50 euro everywhere i look. at least twice a year i get spma in the door offering amazing offers and deals on maybe 50 items. one is always thos tables with the special one off price at 50 euro .
    it really annoys me. they are trying to fool people.
    they are shooting themselves in the foot becasue i see that the deal is a lie and it tarnishes the other offers. they could be genuine but i wont buy it from there on principle

    "He's with the angles now"

    "Oh she's such an angle"

    "You must have an angle watching over you"

    I like to think that people are moving away from traditional religious beliefs and realise that mathematics is the answer....but no, people are just idiots.

    I'm TA'd that women don't make an effort when I deliver their post in the morning. I expect full hair and make-up, the sexiest lingerie imaginable, and have a Triple, Venti, Half Sweet, Non-Fat, Caramel Macchiato in your hand as I approach your door.

    Are you actually genuinely a postman? You should do an AMA!

    I'm tad that my post man hasn't bothered his hole bringing my post yet.
    I'm waiting on the courier to make an Asos delivery.

    Regular subscribers to this thread will know how UTTERLY FUKING IMPATIENT I am and I can't hack this waiting business. I was actually standing on the street like a weirdo waiting to see if i could even see the post man off in the distance. There has to be techniques to stop me needing things yesterday

    Ummmm have you ever read The Precious Present? It's a short wee book, I'm sure it's available online. It's a good place to start!

    I'm sure you weren't looking for literal advice there but it's just what I thought of when I read your post. :o

    Fupping Amazon being a bunch of fupping plebs and delivering my order to "my neighbour Steve at 162" - I DON'T KNOW ANY STEVE AT 162 AND I'M PRETTY SURE HE DOESN'T EXIST.

    Bloody morons.

    Are the postman and your courier two different people? Cos Asos come by Fasttrack/Parcel connect who tbh deserve a TA thread of their own.

    This hayfever thing is quite literally wrecking my head.

    My eyes feel the size of watermelons. I'm snotty and spotty and disgusting. My ears are ringing and I just want to get out of my body for a while.

    It's not cool. Not cool at all.

    I'm not a pilot, but I was actually only talking to someone the other day about when I used to audit aircraft leasing companies. I actually know a ridiculous amount of useless information about aircraft and engines, and swaps and splits and substitutions, and operating leases versus finance leases, etc. She was stunned that I knew all about it, and it's not something I'll ever work in again. Isn't it funny the information and experiences we gather in life? And all so irrelevant and useless really!

    I'd be more interested in an AMA from a postman than from a pilot! :o

    No reception again from Three. They are a waste of fcking space. You cannot hear anyone on the other line and they will say, oh it's your phone and all this. How come my phone works fine sometimes then. Fcking cants.
