I don't think AIB know what "brave" means.

Getting up and going to work in the morning is not what it means.

And that girl talking over the ad sounds like a sleepy Bosco.

Brave definitely isn't charging bank fees of 60 euros four times a year. Thieving bastards.

"Shock Horror - National Bank Are Morons"

Listening to that advert I would be nearly sure thats Fiona O'Shaughnessy who played Jessica Hyde in Utopia.

I'm used to having the office to myself until 9 in the morning. I use this for any labour intensive tasks I need to do (no phones ringing or loud people in the vicinity so it's easier) and if it's quiet, coffee and Boards.

New colleague likes to start at 8.30 meaning I have to make small talk before my coffee's even finished.... :mad:

I hate that. You're going to have to slip some equine laxative in his coffee to take him out for an hour or so.

Some people do not understand that some of us are not ready for human interaction until about 15 minutes after our first caffeine!

Did she say why? Is it to get the creases out?:D

There are so many reasons we could speculate about, most likely to get us banned!!:D

Colleague's lovely. But I just want to be left ALONE.....!

I'll talk when I'm ready.

On a similar note, I walked into work this morning wearing my headphones - Afro Celt Sound System blasting away - and as I clocked in I heard someone call my name. I'm quite aloof at work and I don't pay much attention to people around me, but if someone calls my name I'll respond.

I took out my headphones and turned to face her.

Turns out she was calling someone with a similar name to me who'd walked past. :mad:

During the Isle of Man TT this year, Bruce Anstey's Heroic Beard(TM) annoyed me considerably. He's going around with a big "Manly" spacer head on him like Brian Blessed gone badly wrong.

I hate when people over-use their car horns. It's not necessary to blow your horn if there is a string of traffic in front of you. It's not like the force of your horn is going to magically blow the cars out of your way

.

I do like it when there's a wedding and people are beeping to celebrate the happy event, it's nice. I don't like it when two cars are driving around together, beeping back and forth, as if they're communicating in Morse code. And it isn't nice to beep incessantly at all hours of the day and night. Some eejit was doing it at around 4am this morning. I also hate it when people I know beep at me when they see me out walking. It scares the bejeebus out of me!

feckin hayfever, my bloody eyes are wrecked.

having the computer/laptop up on high volume, you're quietly scrolling through a page and suddenly a ****ing random video auto plays and scares the ****e out of you before you even have time to see where it is.

Washing ceilings! :mad:

I wish I wasn't so good at it, because then I wouldn't be asked to wash ALL the ceilings. Stupid droplets getting in my eye the whole time, up and down the ladder, scrubbing like a mad thing square by square, it's so bloody tedious

But at least it's a nice sparkly ceiling when it's done... easily pleased

Is it bad that I was expecting either that or Luton as the answer there?

Ha probably not! Although I flew through STN every 6 weeks for 3 years and nothing like that happened before.

The other airports are ridiculously expensive!

rainbow kirby

Yep, but as long as the overall cost doesn't go over my psychological hard limit (£120 return for non-Christmas flights to Ireland) I'll happily pay the extra to avoid having to fly Ryanair. The fact that I can get a single train home from Heathrow, even if it takes an hour, is pretty damn sweet, and London City is by far the best one to fly out of.

TA'd at the fact that I'm wearing heels that I've never worn for more than a few minutes before for work today and they are killing my feet :mad:

Beeped going through security at the airport today so I was searched. They took my shoes and then this woman started to search me. I wasn't too impressed when she out her hand inside my waistband. They were very rude too. I'm a nervous flyer as it is!

That's terrible! sometimes I think they go a bit too far. A few years ago when we were going through security my four year old ran through to her dad and the security person insisted she be searched. She only had a t shirt and shorts on, there was nothing to search, but they searched her. I was disgusted but we were told that we were going no further unless we let them search. They searched a 75 year old nun that day too.

...later that same day...

I was coming back from my walk at lunchtime and went to clock in, again with headphones on. This time a colleague WAS calling me but I didn't hear.
So I'd gone halfway up the stairs when she tapped me on the back and scared the living SHIT out of me!!!!

Why do I make a tit of myself thinking someone is talking to me , and then nearly drop dead when someone actually does talk to me....
My social ineptitude seems to be increasing the older I get.

That's so bad! The poor little thing. Did they think she was going to whip out a bomb and blow up the airport or something? Ridiculous!!!

My MP3 player battery died and while it's recharging, I plugged the headphones into my phone so I could listen to the radio...

... what song comes on only Beyonce's Crazy in Love.

The "gods" are conspiring against me today. I HATE HATE HATE THAT SONG! :mad::mad::mad:

The phrase 'before your time'. It's seems like the person saying it gets pleasure from being older, the same way kids do between the ages 4-7.

"Ah it's before your time bud."

Grrr.

Passive aggression :mad:

When people would prefer to roll their eyes rather than actually discuss an issue.

Worrrrrrrrrst.

mocha please!

Ould wans with pierced ears, who have been wearing the same heavy tacky big gold earrings for the past century or so, so that their earlobes are practically sitting on their shoulders and you can see the long red line going from where the piercing was originally placed, to where it's been dragged down to, so that it's barely held there by the flimsiest shred of flesh that is about to give way at any second.

I had to sit opposite one of those wans this morning for breakfast. And make small talk. I felt physically nauseous.

Especially for you, old lady this morning ...

Craig Doyle wrecks my head, he may be pretty but he is such a cheeseball. I will stand corrected, but I refuse to believe he has any interest in bikes!
Wonder did that beard of Bruce's cost him any time:)

I'm pretty sleep deprived today. Can of coke in one hand, half empty ketchup bottle in the other. Shook the wrong thing and boom, coke in my face

Sorry, what airport was that again?

* urgently prepares to buy a flight ticket *

Here's a tip, fly from Frankfurt sometime. I was going through security and for some reason, I always set off airport metal detectors. Now I maintain it's the alien implant but nobody ever listens.

Anyway, the metal detector goes off as usual and the blonde, impresive looking German security ladies take me aside and give me a very, very comprehensive pat down.

When they were finished and they gave me the all clear, I was nearly going to pay them.:pac:
