Yeah but I mean, if they had an appointment at 11:00 and they came in at 10:58, why wouldn't they be seen?

If they were there before me then fine, but they weren't.

I was waiting until I had read the whole thread and this was going to be my trivial thing.

When people mention their trivial thing that annoys them before you mention your own trivial thing that annoys you and it's the same trivial annoyance.

:P

People using the word tragedy for something trivial.

There was a guy in the NCT center on Friday, must have been in his late 40s, watching a video on his phone at full blast in the waiting area. My eyes couldn't roll far enough back.

I have to sit in work and listen to my boss scraping every last bit of yoghurt from the plastic tub, I feel like jumping up and scraping her eyeballs out of their sockets

I was thinking about putting this up earlier today as well, colleague who sits next to me was doing the same thing! I went out for a walk instead. Nothing worse than the sound of a spoon hitting off hollow plastic. :mad:

And use a very small spoon, that way it will take ages.:D

There's another one who makes eating grapes sound like someone has taken a wrecking ball and tried to knock the building down

Oh fúck. I was eating grapes earlier myself!

(I try eat quietly though, nothing disgusts me more than noisy eaters!).

I work with 6 women who have all recently bought slow cookers. There is at least 90 minutes of slow cooker recipe talk every single day in work.

It drives me mad. I have heard how to make this curry dish every single day for the last 3 months!

Every minute they talk about slow cookers is a minute they arent complaining they are cold.

It's funny how people get all excited if something gets cooked either unusually quickly, or unusually slowly, but nobody makes a song and dance about regular speed cooking.

It's either fast food or slow food, there is no in-between.

Start talking about your fast cooker (science oven/microwave) that does noodles in four minutes.

No such problem, quite a few are experiencing the big change so they are having hot flushes etc so I get to hear all about that too

Open plan offices and middle aged women, a lethal combination! One such lady who works near me has a sign over her desk "They are not hot flushes, they are power surges".

No.

So called early bird "deals" with supplement charges if you want anything more that boiled potatoes followed by jelly and ice cream. Fancy a steak? €6 supplement. Fish? €5 supplement. Lamb? €6 supplement. Lobster? €10 supplement.

They all seem to be the sharing type which makes it worse. There is another who likes to regularly discuss the labours she went through with each of her 3 kids. Another is married to a minister and described one day how she had been bought a onsie with a cat pattern. She delighted in telling us how she puts the hood up and purrs for a laugh.
