    The 'charming' man who rang first thing this morning and shouted down the phone at me, spoke over me refused to listen to me and threaten to call into the office.

    I was so upset after the call I was shaking like a leaf and burst into tears in front of the MD. I'm annoyed at myself for letting a ignortant jumped little sod get to me

    Trace call and pass details onto Guards. See how brave he is when they call him.

    Per the Bible

    "Ignore him, cos he is only a bollox"

    I think it is somewhere at the back:D

    I know its been spoken of before but I fcuking hate some of the crap on facebook. No i will not fecking share your prayers, guardian angel shiote or 1 like is 1 prayer/cure for cancer nonsense.

    Another thing i'm at it. Gym statuses, going to the gym is the same as using the jacks. We don't need to hear your crap. Fair enough if you've lost a lot of weight over time or have run a marathon, but i don't need to know your fecking training regime.

    The joys of dealing with the public, I remember it well and I think I prefer being chronically ill.:D

    I think if you spend enough time working with the general public, you become more cynical as time goes on and have less time for people with bellendish tendances.

    Exactly. I have a very low bullsh*t tolerance level. The whole 'customer is always right' thing spawned monsters. It allowed the public to treat staff like dirt and get away with it. Businesses need to look after their staff and have a zero tolerance policy towards abuse to staff.

    Some businesses do have signs in their window or instore indicating that abuse to staff will risk in expulsion but in large retail stores, the customer is always right and that a no quibble policy exists.

    Having the same conversation with fifty people. I know they are trying to be nice and concerned but I feel like a broken down record :(

    Just got a ton of verbal abuse and insults shouted at me coming back from the corner shop by teenage pals of the scumbags who got evicted from next door a few years ago for horrendous anti-social behaviour. I don't get the verbal abuse as often as I used to but it's still unpleasant. I suppose I shouldn't take any notice of a 'thing' with a side ponytail.

    Because they blame our complaints about the anti-social behaviour for their pals being evicted. The same reason the people were evicted from the other 5 places they rented since they moved in from Moyross.

    'Thats my boy' ad for car with 'lane assist'.
    Focus ad with 'parking assist'.
    Opel ad with 'downhill assist'.

    Whatever about parking assist, people with limited mobily or whatever. If you need 'lane assist' or 'downhill assist' you shouldn't be allowed to have a driving licence.

    When you're sitting on the bus, with about 8 sets of seats free, and then some simpleton gets on, huffing and puffing and sweating and gross, and sit next to me. And not only next to me, but so close they might as well be sitting on my knee. I'd love to sit on a whoope cushion now, he wouldn't be long moving

    Bappy, you chose the wrong ladette! I am perpetually frozen!

    So there's this really big girl sitting opposite to me on the train. She was obviously in supermacs but she's ordered so much food it doesn't fit on two trays. She's eating taco chips, she has the carton from a burger, she has sauce, she has a big huge drink and a mc flurry, and she's pulling something from the supermacs bag on the seat beside her. I can hear her slurping her drink, and then randomly she does this really weird thing like sucking her fingers and I can hear her do it. My skin is crawling.

    I think she caught me looking at her with a look of disgust on my face, and now I'm trying to do that look of disgust while texting on my phone so she thinks its my natural face

    Now she's eating an aero!!! I don't believe it!! An aero! Shoving it in there on top of her taco chips and her burger and her icecream and her secret in the bag.


    And now salt and vinegar hunky Dorys

    Me neither! :pac: Whatever's causing the "rolling back syndrome" has gotta be chocolate related - my only addiction (sadly). I bet if they test my blood right now, instead of red blood cells, they'll find bleedin' coco pops. In a moment of utter madness, I caved and bought a box, thinking that a treat "for the kids" would be nice. I have scoffed the entire box. All of it. Myself. Jaysis.
