    A team member lost her baby. I’m not a doctor but as I understand the infant died in the womb and was delivered dead. She of course is heartbroken and regularly cries in work. :(

    Another team member who everyone hates is pregnant now and she tells us all not that we care and also asks questions about pregnancy to the first girl which upsets her and then she cries. Oh that wagon knows exactly what she is doing

    Evil and cruel

    That wan is a fücker. How bad minded would you have to be to deliberately ask the first woman about pregnancy stuff knowing full well what she had gone through.

    overspending and not seeing where all the money went, but realising all the little purchases added up.

    TA: me. I can be a total berk.

    Using a new debit card at the shop to pay for a few groceries, forgetting my new PIN, failing all attempts to enter what I thought it was and having to give everything back and walk out empty handed...
    Embarrassing to say the least!!
    And I had €20 (more than enough to pay for what I wanted) in cash in a different bag that I forgot to take with me this morning (back from a trip abroad) so I only had Hungarian currency on me!!

    The bus stories reminded me of the bus from Dublin Airport to Galway i was on two weeks ago.
    Bus wasn’t all that full. I usually head towards the back but all I saw was a foot on each of the second from the back seats, and some guy on his own at the back. Basically trying to reserve himself 9 seats but anyway.
    He starts playing golf interviews really loudly on his phone. Then makes a few calls with this Ross O Carroll Kelly accent. and tells them he’s just popping in on the folks before the sesh. (Hate the word folks).

    Those citylink and gobus services are excellent and great value but they’re getting worse. Regardless of what time of the day it is, someone always brings hot food and crisps. It’s as if they skip lunch to have a special bus picnic. And reclining seats should be banned. Or if you hadn’t showered that day you shouldn’t be let on.

    Hate, hate, hate that.
    It is the height of inconsideration.

    TA'ed that even though it is simple task to gently close a door behind you, many people slam doors without considering the implication of that thunderous slam to those around them. It is anti-social and ignorant.

    Not TA'ed that door slammers will be offended by this post.

    I read a tweet from a complete stranger the other day, she was announcing the results for her doctorate,
    the same grade I got for my dip, they are rightly thrilled with their grade.

    TA, that Im not as happy with my achievement as that person is, or the fact that the educational labels I lived with a million years ago are still lurking at the back of my mind.

    While I was on study leave, we got a floater at work, their job is to cover for who ever they can during the 24/7/52 work cycle.
    I asked her yes if she would cover for me for about 2 hours next week(separate dates), she wanted to know why(tho not really necessary)

    I came across her comments in 'The Book' that she would be unavailable on x and y as she was covering for BB, who was unavailable as she was dropping her dying dog for a groom and teeth cleaning along side 5 frowney faces.

    TA, as its her job to cover for staff, why they judgement what I do to keep my terminally ill dog comfortable in her last weeks?

    Knew I would have no wifi so downloaded the last episode of Happy to watch with beers after sending the kids to bed however it turns out I did not download it at all. Have plenty of Duggie and Luna Petuna but no Happy. :(

    btw the weirdest show you will ever watch but strangely entertaining.
    Weird being that even describing the show makes you sound like a sexual deviant.

    To the moron who thought it'd be good to rev up his motorbike with farting, souped-up boy-racer-like exhaust not once, but eight times, at this hour of the morning, thereby waking the whole estate: thaaaaaaaaank you, I'm sure your balls will drop soon, then you won't need to do that again to display how much of a man you are. :mad:

    Similar.
    Was woken up about 6am on a saturday morning by this constant rumble, my brain wasn't awake enough to comprehend what it was (a boy racer idling on the street), it went on for ages, waking me up more and more until I realised what it was. Eventually I heard a neighbour shout "Would you fùck off!!", car immediately leaves and doesnt return. These boys aren't so tough.

    Turned out it was a car, not a motorbike (those exhausts should be banned), and the "boys" in question are well into their 30s. :mad:

    Probably a bit more than a TA:

    What's the craic with the sparse use of ultrasound on women with gynecological issues?
    I had yet another trip to the A&E last night because I have prolonged heavy bleeding (I have hormonal issues) and since I'm a woman at child bearing age it's standard to rule out I'm pregnant. Unlikely but what's 100%.
    When I rang care doc they told me to go in because I am passing big tissue clots and I might have a miscarriage I don't know about.

    Anyway it's my turn to see the gyn doctor and am led into a room with an ultrasound in it. She explained to me what my bloods suggested, had a talk about how to go on from there, gave me a prescription and sent me home.
    She was nice and understanding but my point is: why would doctors not just scan the lower abdomen of women experiencing a myriad of uterine problems?
    Where I'm from you get scanned for everything to make sure nothing is missed, hell I had scans for UTIs before. It's like trying to fix a fracture without having an X-Ray.

    I'm quite disappointed on how slowly women with ongoing lady issues can't get the care they need simply because the whole process is awkward. There's no gyn I can ring, I have to go to the clueless GP who refers me on and the hospitals don't care.
    You'd think that abdominal scans would be standard for these problems because the equipment is literally right there in front of them and it's not a complicated thing to do.

    Plumber is coming over because there's a leak coming from the ceiling at my parents' house. So what's the problem? The same plumber came over to do some work on my boiler in my apartment the year before last. I drunk texted him afterwards that he was a ride and he never replied. Someone please tell me that he's forgotten by now? I could die of shame :pac:

    Hunky Dorys went from 150g to 135g about a year ago. Soon those share bags will just be size of a what a normal bag of crisps should be. Multi pack crisp bags are just a disgrace, can easily eat 8 or 10 in one sitting.
