If that is the recent thread on a dog chasing other animals, I bowed out of that one because I became fairly sure the owner just wanted the poor thing PTS and was working around to that the whole time. All that rubbish about the vet saying he should be euthanaised and he is a "hunter" etc. I don't believe any of it. It should have been called "Irresponsible owner seeks absolution for f.ucking up dog and then wanting him disposed of"

I don't buy half of it. Suddenley there is a very serious illness mentioned which is dropped in to try to make anyone feel bad for saying anything negative. The poor dog and sadly there are many more in similar circumstances with muppet 'owners'. Doesn't have the 'energy' to erect a couple of baby gates :rolleyes: I don't know why people come on seeking advice when it is clear that they have already made up their minds what they are going to do. I'd imagine the only reason she posted was in the hope that someone would see the thread and offer to take the dog off her hands:mad:

I always assume it is a Pm. Love getting them.
Was wrongly infracted once and nearly closed my account at the horror. But getting a PM 'alert' from a thread that you followed in 2008 is a bit annoying.

I rarely get pm's some are nice and some are queries about medical procedures I had/will have and the poster looking for advice /reassurance which makes me feel useful and helpful

I get infractions from time to time (I always think they're bs but the mod is just doing their job)

When you have to wait for a toilet cubicle to become free and you know the person who eventually comes out and you have to do a little awkward chat all the while knowing why you are both in there. And then you have to sit on a seat that has been warmed by their a*se.

Where is my empty presctiption pad, I need all the steroid cream or ointment I can get my hands on. The oul eczema is being a b*tch. :pac:

It is en route, in the meantime, apply a bread poultice. And don't call again without an appointment.

Another TA, sick people annoying me with their little problems. Coughing and spluttering all over my reasonably clean surgery.:D

Something similar that also annoys me, when people overuse your name, finishing every sentence with it. Is it just me or is it a bit weird?

Yes, especially if you have just met them, or they have seen your name on a form, or you have given your name on a phone call. Stop it!

Giving that simpleton of a vet 85 euro for him to tell me the dog pulled a muscle and to give him calpol. Now I have to bring him to another vet tonight for a real diagnosis.

That face though

TA by Thick fookers who can't understand basic directions. Where I work is a little out of the way most people ring and understand the basic directions I give time but there's always one thicko who doesn't understand and you have guide over the phone to the front door.

Vel · 24-02-2015 04:57PM

When you engage in a quick check to make sure your fly isn't undone and someone sees you do it.

TA that after weeks of being very quiet at work I am now about to get busy and stressed again. But am not mentally ready for that change.
I just want to go back to bed.

I want a duvet day. A day to myself where I can turn the heating up full and take to the couch with my duvet and watch an entire box set. I want a cooler box on the floor beside me filled with ice and two bottles of white wine. Viewing will only be interrupted to throw a pizza in the oven or fill up a plate with cheese and crackers. Doze off then at around 9pm. Bliss.

....requests 1 day annual leave... :P

Me too, I feel my eyes glaze over when someone is giving me directions. After the first sentence all I hear is blah blah blah, yet I nod and agree as if I'm listening. A TA of mine is I still have trouble distinguishing left from right. I dread anyone asking me for directions. I will know right well where somewhere is, but I won't be able to tell you, and I have to look at my hands to see which is left or right to tell them which turn to take. I have to try remember when you hold up your left hand, your thumb and index finger make an L shape. I'd say I've made people wish they had never bothered asking me !

That's actually pretty common. I always felt like a dope not knowing my lefts from my rights (again look at my hands) but in work I ask people to use their left/right hands to stretch for me during threading and so many people get mixer up

The last three times I've decided to take a 'lost day' - drop everyone off, town for a fry, walk/swim it off on Curracloe, 'nice' lunch and cinema for the afternoon before collecting everybody at hometime none-the-wiser - something has come up. So I've ended up minding a pukey daughter or running around town on errands. So annoying.

I'm the same.

I also get into a mad panic when someone stops me for directions. Start getting the left and right mixed up and just generally getting myself in an awful flap. I've sent a good few people the wrong way unintentionally. Now I tend to tell them to go straight ahead and ask the next person they see

I stopped once to help a group of lost looking tourists pouring over a map. Big mistake. I just couldn't place them on the map, nor where they were looking for. I eventually had to stop someone else walking past to help them :rolleyes: I stood with them for a couple of seconds while this guy helped them to get their bearings and then realising my uselessness to the situation silently slunk away like a usless pr1ck

Reminds me to book a 'me' day off soon.
Sleep in. Head to Rathgar for breakfast and newspaper.
In to town.
Wander around the shops. Lunch in powerscourt. Pint sitting outside the Bailey- watch the world go bye for a long time.

That's the thing - I always keep schtum but it's like she has a sixth sense for when I'm planning any kind of frivolity and steps in to nip it in the bud.
