Zero Tolerance.......

cannotlogin · 10-03-2019 01:43PM #1

Think the world has gone a bit mad lately and we are indulging every little snowflake going, can't say anything negative for fear of being labelled racist, sexist, bigoted etc.

So who is on your zero tolerance list.

Mine:

1. ISIS returners - you go join ISIS you forfeit all rights to return

2. Teenage Scrots - if we can't punish the child as they are underage, punish the parents who should have more control over their kids

3. Femists/International Women's Day cheerleaders - we live in Ireland, women aren't oppressed - come back to me when there are gender quotes for mechanics, blocklayers, binmen etc.

4. Social Welfare moochers - if you can't provide for yourself, take what you get. A Foreva home with 4 bedrooms is not for you.

5. All things Kardashian

6. People who move car mirrors - if you have to move my mirrors to park either your driving is ****e or you should park somewhere else!

Probably feel most strongly about number 6! :-)

agree with everything bar post 5 and 6
5.. the Kardashians can be safely tolerated(ignored) think of them as an extra tax on the stupid
6. its good sense to fold in your wing mirrors in case someone who is bad at parking knocks them off

dxhound2005 · 10-03-2019 01:53PM

If wing mirrors weren't supposed to fold, God would not have created a folding mechanism.

7. Usage of “snowflake” while moaning

the_pen_turner · 10-03-2019 02:21PM

i agree with everything except no 6. i presume you mean adjusting the angle to get a better view. that can be handy sometimes. i often turn out my mirrors on the motorway to reduce the blind spot. you couldnt drive like that normally but its very handy on a motorway

I would generally agree except for number 3. Have a conversation with women with some responsibility in the workplace and a man in a similar position, polar opposite experiences.

Same goes for simple things such as going to interviews,etc.

I once moved the wing mirror of a badly parked luxury SUV and accidentally caused the stupid thing to fall to the ground. For the benefit of easily-trolled posters on here who will inevitably get hilariously annoyed about an apocryphal anecdote from a stranger on the internet, about something that may or may not have happened to another stranger's Range Rover Vogue, eighteen years ago, I would like to add that I moved it with my foot. Several times. In both directions, before it eventually dropped off and shattered on the ground.

I am a woman with responsibility in the workplace!!! A job I got before quotas, female bias etc., the same job available to any man/woman who had a similar skill set, experience and was prepared to put in the effort.

Ihave conversations with friends and colleagues with resonsibility all the time but I'm not sure what you mean.

People who mix up their and there.

Might want to move on from that story, dude. Don’t want to become the Boards equivalent of a barstool bore; boring people to tears recalling something you once did when you were a young fella.

OP maybe you should take all that to the TA thread.

"Traveller culture"

Get an education so you can not be reliant on the state from cradle to grave

Control your emotions, stop getting involved in life long feuds, actually you probably do it out of boredom due to having no education required to get a job

Also include zero tolerance for "Traveller culture" apologists

I find that if you are assertive automatically you are seen as being a "bitch" or "on your period" (this was said in an email sent by mistake to a family member). If you are nice (just generally pleasant) a lot of men think you are giving them the go ahead to hit on you. My partner is also in a managerial position and we have found that we cannot take similar approaches with staff and colleagues as they are interpreted in completely different ways.

I have personally been asked during interviews who was going to look after my children when I am in work. My partner has never been asked anything similar. Have been told by a man during an interview, that my job entailed more than "looking pretty" and still offered me the job which I obviously rejected. He seemed puzzled also by the fact that I wanted to go on to do a masters degree (earlier on in my career).
Had my personal space grossly invaded (moving my chair from across the table to beside the person, and hand placed on my leg. He proceeded to give me his personal number "because I didn't need an interview, the job was mine"...and I could go on...

I was just going to say littering out of car windows and, possibly, also mention texting while driving because some young wall-eyed wagon nearly crashed into me yesterday doing same, but...er...I feel I'm not giving it my all now.

Aren't you lovely?!

No it doesn't happen often at all, just annoyed when it does considering it's unneccessary 9 times out of ten.

If I have a lot of baggage it's news to me but whatever you think! ðŸ™„
