...but something/someone already managed to pi$$ you off.
What/Who was it?

here's my little rant:

I was standing at the bus stop with some woman. I was trying to fix my backpack and didn't notice that bus was coming. She stood up[was sitting on a bench] and when passing me to waive the bus sighed loudly and looked at me rebukingly.
What did she expected??? that I'll stop the bus and than ask the princess if I may carry her into it?!

Well, at least I'm feeling better now

Last Wednesday getting the bus to work I managed to arrive just as the bus was pulling away (early). In spite of the fact that I had my arm half way in the closing door the driver still decided to take off.

So... what, she was annoyed that you didn't get up to wave the bus down and blamed you for it passing you both?

Dave!

I'm not sure I follow... Why would she expect you to stop the bus? You sure you didn't do something else?

Nice story Aseth but it probably would have been had you held onto it til Monday. Fridays a day for happy clappy stories to get people in the mood for a fun filled weekend.

Pighead can only speak for himself but that story hasn't really got the old chuckles rolling. Have you any stories about talking dogs or friends slipping on banana skins?

Aseth

She sighed loudly just while passing me and you should see the look of disapproval on her face. I know it sounds weird but can't really find another reason for her behaviour.
I myslef don't really care which bus I take, place I live they arrive every 5 minutes. But don't know why someone expects from me[just because I was standing at the edge of the road] that I'll wave the bus? Certainly I don't carry a little board with 46A on it

I'm the only girl in the office and my boss is really patronising. He has spent the morning checking everything that I do, even though I'm,by far, the most competent person working here.

He never listens to the questions I ask. Instead he answers the question that he has decided to hear for himself. It's like he expects me to ask something stupid so he pays no attention to what I actually say and then tells me all about something else that I'm already well aware of. Very annoying.

Yeah but women are inclined to have mood swings and might fcuk up more than men

Wow, and that annoyed you enough to post here about it! You must be pretty sensitive if you're still pissed off about someone sighing at you and giving you a look :rolleyes:

No one pissed me off. Love your life

Eh, i don't get, were you not at a bus stop? Don't buses stop at bus stops

Anyway, I was eating some donuts for breakfast and I managed to get lots of sugar inside my shirt... but it's Friday, middle of the month which means I'm due my bi-monthly delousing this weekend, so happy out!!

some of them don't bother unless you stick out your hand, there might be multiple routes at that stop or the bus driver simply hates everyone.

I figured it worked that way too

This is early morning for me but those planks at the deli counter in eurospar any time I've gone in for the lunch it's just been a complete waste of time. I stand there with the rest of the folks on they're lunch waiting for service, eventually they come and nothings ever ready for lunch. They make no preparation for the lunch time at all. It doesn't dawn on them atall that the lunch time will be busy and they should at least be at the counter to take orders. Then the food you get is pure muck.

Luckily Mace opened a proper deli and I don't have to suffer that place anymore.

I wonder does anyone ever describe themselves as by far the least competent person in their workplace. I'd say in terms of competency i'm about 4th. Pretty reasonable I think..

Would bi-monthly be twice a month, or once every 2 months? Im not trying to be pedantic or anything, just now the question is in my head

[Deleted User]

Bi-monthly = every 2 months.

Twice a month = fortnightly (approx).

Even the dictionary gets confused

And Meriam-Webster's is the same

And here is the Oxford expert explanation.

I always took it as every 2 weeks.

i figure shes been watching you from afar for several weeks now and is just dissapointed she didn't work up the courage to talk to you and so sighed to herself in frustration. Heck she's probably writing a PI thread right now

Eh, are you sure she just wasn't pissed off about the bus not stopping, rather than at you?

I wouldve always thought once every 2 months, now I know better, well at least something positive has come out of this thread,

blah

Maybe she expected you to throw you coat down on the path to keep her shoes clean and put the rucksack on the curb as a step up onto the bus. And maybe throw yourself in front of the bus to make it stop too.

It appears that periods of time are the exception to the rule according to here. Also, biannual means twice a year, but according to the link, the general rule is that bi- usually equals every 2...
