This day needs to end.

Was sitting at not my usual desk awhile ago, this desk is positioned in such a way that none of my colleagues can see me while I'm sitting here.
Anyway, I'm minding my own business working away, when I decided to put some hand cream on. The tube was nearly empty so I had to really squeeze it to get some out. It came out with a loud squelching noise which I didn't pay attention to.
Next thing I hear sniggers from neighbouring desks, and in a matter of seconds, the whole office is roaring laughing. It takes my innocent mind about 30 seconds to realise they all bloody think I farted out loud.

Just now, I was walking to my desk with a cup of coffee, when a random ninja aggressive sneeze came out of nowhere and the coffee went flying. Colleagues near and far looking at me as if I'm an idiot.

Can I go home now??

I've just had my leg cracked by a bike pedal. On the train.

Where it ain't meant to be!!

Then the ***** of an owner goes "watch where ya bleeding going eh ???".

I hate people sometimes.

Have a meeting tonight and I'm in no mood to go. What's worse is that I'm the chairperson so I have to pretend to care.

Pedestrians with zero spatial awareness.

In the space of thirty seconds today I witnessed:

A woman casually gossiping on her phone taking her time to cross the entrance to a car-park (I think she even stopped in the middle of the entrance for a brief second), despite a courteous driver allowing her by with a row of cars piling up behind her coming off a roundabout.

And then some other oaf crossed the road with her blinkers on and basically barged into my path without ever noticing me.

Bit of manners/common sense wouldn't go amiss on some people.

Back pain again because I overdid the heavy lifting again. I'm an awful eejit!

TA'ed at all the complex, high maintenance, turbo diesels that were sold to people post 2008 which were totally unsuited to their usual driving and which will end up being scrapped prematurely as uneconomical to repair due to turbo, dmf, egr, dpf, adblue and other expensive to repair technology which was required to try force a square peg into a round hole in the first place!

I live near a bus terminus, so I can see when the bus should come. Often, the driver just drives straight on from the terminus, ignoring the 10-20 people he has seen on his way. He should drive around a square, with 3 stops, before resuming the direct road from the terminus. That bus will be empty, and the next one will be crowded!

I buy some stuff on the Internet. Sometimes the deliver is by An Post. Often, I have been at home on the delivery date, and nothing happens. Next day, I get an email saying delivery failure when I know we were there.

Is it just me, or do all Public Service company drivers feel they can mess the public around? Bus, rail, luas, all Public Service drivers. Private company drivers do not behave in this way.

Will they ever learn

Presumably they are learning but not from the right people!

Bird feeder time can generate a host of TA's

The Starlings bully all the smaller birds away

The Sparrows fighting even though there could be a spare feeder

and to cap it all I see a Jackdaw on a feeder today

The jackdaws and the magpies anger me!! They scare everyone away and then they break my bird feeders hanging off of them! We don't have many starlings here, just the occasional one, however, we have lots of bullfinch and they are my faves!

My TA is people standing at a zebra crossing but not using it. There's a secondary school on my route home with a zebra crossing right outside it, which is excellent, however, the parents still encourage their children to cross the road anywhere so the children can jump into vehicles in the middle of moving traffic. So the zebra crossing is great but the children stand at it, chatting to each other and then all of a sudden will just decide to jump out onto the road to cross so literally everybody is driving so slowly up that road and impeding traffic at the roundabouts at both ends of the road. I was taught to fear the road as a child, don't cross without looking, don't cross without making sure everyone has stopped, don't cross unless you know they've seen you, always cross at pedestrian crossings. Now, the children just seem to do whatever they want.
I get very annoyed by parents encouraging their children to jump out of cars in moving traffic and run across the road, as they do so without looking because they trust their parents to guide them.

People who sit outside supermarkets in their cars. I usually end up parking next to them and they just sit staring as I get out of the car, lock it, go onto shop etc. What the hell are they doing?

Yep, that's me too! Sometimes I'm unwell (or lazy) and don't feel like going in so I sit in the car as well.

Sometimes I just want to sit in the car and talk to myself but I can't because of the person in the car beside me so I have to sit there and pretend to be extra normal.
I suddenly become hyper- aware of all my body movements.
