    The most amazing thing about that clip is how the sound engineers managed to add the laughter track with such precision.

    You absolutely cannot tell for one second that there is no audience.

    Nurses. They all have huge fat arses as well, why I dont know when they walk around all day. But they have a very high proportion of bitches.

    not that high tech weapons arent pretty cool.
    but just sitting down and thinking out how best to fry a human ... fked up

    Maybe they're thinking about HR people when they come up with them? in that case it's perfectly normal thinking ;)

    Teachers.

    I work in customer relations and it's a running joke in our job that when we have a patronising, talk to us like we're sh*t/stupid or both type call, we check the occupation and 9 times out of ten, the person is a teacher. The retired ones are worse.

    It's like they've learned a special tone of voice which immediately implies they know everything, you're an idiot and they refuse to acknowledge you might know more about your own job than they do. You hear it as soon as some of them open their mouth.

    Must be all the years spent talking down to children.

    Lifting heavy patients tends to put meat on the glutes.

    Why do people think that nurses are B1tchs? I admit I met one or two wagons but most of them are sound!

    Nurse's are wagons,the only people who seem to give a damn about you in hospitals are care assistants.

    Most of the nurses I have come across in hospitals have been very nice and were very good at their job. Nursing it is an incredibly stressful profession so I'm not surprised that some nurses loose their cool occasionally.

    *folds arms across self and looks vexed*

    Ahem,ahem...... I used to be a nurse in a different century,in a different world, and I'll have you know I have a beautifully proportional purrfectly nice ass.


    .......you're dead right about them being bitches though, m i a o w

    If I was offered all the property in NAMA I wouldn't be a nurse!

    IMO, you would want to be mad to work in an Irish hospital with all the cut backs and overcrowding. I recently had to take my five year old to A&E and it was a horrific experience, the place resembled a war zone. I couldn't imagine working in such a stressful environment day in day out.

    Head Chefs and their bullying ways

    When I was kitchen porter the ones I met made Gordon Ramsey look a pussy.
    Yeah it's pressure job but we all have deadlines and pressure so why are there so many bullies in the kitchen?

    You'd be sacked in an office with what head chefs can do in "their :rolleyes:" kitchen


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 856 ✭✭✭Karona


    Carers and nurses in old folks homes.

    They torture their patients.... gggggggrrrrr:mad:

    I don't know about HR being evil, but any of them that I've worked with have definitely been a bit...well...loolah.

    Morticia (not her real name, but had a penchant for black clothing with long black hair) use to rock slowly back and forward. Used to get nauseous when she was in the room for an extended period of time.

    Different place, different HR person, nicknamed Mental. Again, rocks back and forward, loved the phrase "Following SOP's" and "Can do attitude," but she's not allowed out in public, as she can't handle people. Gets a bit nervous when anything to do with a wage complain comes in. Tries to organise staff events, which are "packed with fun and games, for team building and bonding." These involve arsehole HR inspired games, which get in the way of the copious amounts of booze we want to consume to drown out the pain. Oh, and dear help you if you bring a member of the "public" who isn't involved with work. She'll watch them like a hawk to make sure that they do not eat a cocktail sausage or chicken wing.

    Door to door sales people wanting you to switch over to Airtricty, Vodafone, Bord Gais, etc.......

    Telesales people (from Sky TV) who ring to ask if you want to upgrade your TV package for the 100th time.


    OP, they are not evil but they are bloody annoying :mad: :mad:

    Not evil in the true sense of the word but I have seen people deliberately sell customers the wrong piece of equipment/service JUST to get the commission and the customer off their phone so they can move on to the next customer sucker.

    Sometimes these cases would come back to the salesperson and they would INTENTIONALLY throw the customer around the various company departments before having to eventually deal with the problem a few days down the line, it being down to their own recklessness and greed.

    So I ask you, if you did that for a living day in day out could you honestly sleep at night?

    People who set up fake charities and put black sacks through your letterbox asking for clothes, ostensibly to send to the poor and needy in developing countries, but really to sell on to rag merchants in Eastern Europe for profit.
    Amoral barstards taking advantage of people's generous nature.

    It means less donations then find their way to proper registered charities like Vincent De Paul or Oxfam. :mad:
