    Mobile phones ringing at funerals.
    Is it too much to ask you to turn it off for an hour?

    Cadburys f**king Roses. They've ruined them since they took the toffee ones out. There's a coffee sweet in there now. Who the f**k wants that?

    Shower of c**ts.

    I turned my phone off for a funeral, but forgot I had an alarm set. Went off when it was really quiet. My hands were all sweaty and I couldnt swipe the screen. I was roaring crying at the time too.

    I ended up taking off the back and shaking the battery out. I looked like an insane person, crying, panicking and shaking it, battery went flying :(

    Felt like curling up into a ball.

    A full hour? are you serious?
    Do you not know how important these people are? They MUST have phones on at all times, it could be Obama calling for advice..........on the other hand it's probably mammy checking to see if they want fish fingers for dinner. Selfish prix, they should in no uncertain terms, be told to fuuck off and come back when they get some manners.

    I saw a clip on some tv programme the other day of a bride taking her mobile out of her cleavage and texting while she was at the altar getting married. After the text she put the phone back down the front of her dress. Seriously wtf:eek:

    Yep, the older I get the more I am becoming like Victor Meldrew. Something that annoys me recently - in supermarkets, people who take things off a shelf and the, deciding they don't want it, put back somewhere else in the supermarket.

    Cold houses. I was invited to and visited a friend and a family member over Christmas which involved overnight stays but left both houses earlier than i had planned because their homes were so cold. Its not that either person can't afford heating, more that they are 'not into' having their rooms too warm.

    My missus does this all the time. F**king annoys the sh!t outta me. When I tell her that some poor f**ker has to go around tidying her mess she just says "That's their job".

    If she didn't have such a good pair of t!ts, I'd give up on her.

    Your wife is a rude cow. My best friend is a shelf stacker and works her ar*se off. It's not her job to pick up after people like your inconsiderate wife.

    People who close their eyes while eating. I'm there eating my grub and looking at what must be your sex face and it's making me sick.

    Why is the iPhone default alarm snoozey time set to 9 minutes. It bugs me. Why not an even number?

    I'm guessing a lot of people do what I do and set up 4-5 alarms 10 minutes apart maybe? Just a wild guess, though.

    No, her job is to stack the shelves with products, make sure stock is rotated and in proper order.
    It just so happens that arrogant idiots like that man's girlfriend has no respect for anyone else, so doesn't think about what happens to the stuff she just leaves behind.

    Ultimately my friend *does* put the stuff back but it's not in her job description.

    Retail jobs tend to have a very vague "job description" for this specific reason, that's why you'll never see "retrieve mislaid product and restore to correct area" on any job description, but employees who do these little things that aren't in their job description, managers notice these things as it separates that employee from the employee who thinks they're only doing what they think is their "job description".

    Sure, it's a hassle your friend could do without, but her efforts don't go unnoticed.

    If it's not part of her job then she doesn't have to do it. I suspect it IS part of her job. Maybe she is just lazy?
