    I’d expel it into a tissue from my pocket and throw the tissue in the nearest bin, or wrap in another tissue and put in my pocket until I found a bin.

    My best colleagues and I have an understanding between us. You're a (unt, I'm a (unt, we wouldn't piss on each other if we were on fire however we work well together. Now, what do you need.

    nosey people. But the brand of nosey person ( I know one of these ) who guards every sliver of information about themselves like the fûckin 3rd secret of Fatima yet.. they are always proactively trying to stick their oar in to uncover information about others and their business.…..sometimes slyly and tactfully other times not so…

    "Add" obviously wasn't cool enough.

    I think Jamie Oliver started it.

    I always have a pocket sized pack in my pocket, plus backups in my backpack if using one and jacket if wearing one.

    You start bringing them with you. There's no reason whatsoever you should inflict your phlegm to others. Plus, there's a reason why it used to be illegal to spit, when TB was rampant.

    If this is happening to you on a regular basis, then I suggest you see a doctor, because this has literally never happened to me once in 42 years, nor to anyone else I know.

    Woke up before 9 am to a cloud of turpentine smell in my landing, ta1 so then I had to go around the house opening windows to let it out and avoid it getting into clothes etc.

    Holy hell! its just after 9 am on the weekend, how much of this stuff do these ppl consume? if this were alcohol, I would wonder if they had a problem.

    Ta2 they'll probably be at it all day now, so I get to freeze to avoid a worsening allergy headache/cough, Ta3 Sib saying they cant smell it(which may be true, but can smell dirty ppl!) but refuses to put the fire detectors up again.

    The top sheet of my candy stripe heavy sheets ripped down the middle and the cost of repairing it was more than a new set.

    Was rummaging around in the hot press and found an unopened top half, the owner gave me the ok to use it. I've had it for a few weeks now, ta that they are different colours due to use and aging and seeing the difference in colour each am is ta.

    You should always carry tissues. They're handy if you're out and about. You might have to take a dump and discover that there's no toilet roll.

    In your example, if I didn't have them - I'd swallow the phlegm rather than spit it out.

    People who deliberately spit on car windscreens (has happened to me a couple of times) are even worse.

    massively overslept. Didn’t wake till 1pm… after a week of broken and crap sleep it was needed but I have to go out shortly and, meh, already feeling like I’m playing catch-up.😅

    After the cold snap everything is manky dirty.

    Went out this morning in a clean car and came home in a car that looked like a diplodocus with diarrhoea had been hovering over it.

    Same with taking the dogs out for a walk or leaving them out the back to do their toilet business. I have to clean their paws, legs and bellies every time I bring them back into the house

    It used to happen to me , especially if I was out in the Cold in the fields . Easily cured by blowing your nose into a hanky . A septoplasty ? cured it for me

    I stupidly did a bit of DIY in the dark and now I'm going to have to see it in the morning!

    At work we don't really have a phone charger for the work phone. So, we've to use our own.

    I charged the phone Yesterday.

    Got Into bed last night and my phone was on 10% and I realised I left the charger plugged in ar work.

    I couldn't charge my phone and I was thinking the place might burn down.



  • Posts: 4,229 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Very annoying.

    What about just charging the work phone at home?
