    Why would I look for another job? By the way are you in a family business did I hit a nerve with you?

    Nope, we have no business. Father worked in a Factory, I work for a financial institution, brothers work for International companies and sister is a nurse. Never had a family business.

    It was your sweeping generalisation and the use of the word 'despise' that more than 'trivially annoyed' me!

    Anyway you're entitled to your opinion so I suppose we better move on!

    I grabbed a bottle of what I thought was ordinary bleach from under the kitchen sink yesterday and cleaned the kitchen sink and draining board with it, I was wondering why the smell wasn't that great, then I realised Mr P had put the toilet gel under there instead of in the bathroom. So now the sink smells like toilet block. :(

    No I don't like the daughter but that's just because of my principle on this issue. How many family business workers pounced the streets looking for work or got rejection letters? How many will suffer workplace bullying? How many have to worry if they are late for work? None none and none. It's pure and utter laziness for a grown man or woman to just accept their mammy and daddy's businesses as heir own and plow on it shows no backbone or character in my view. My boss said to me few weeks back "watch your times" when i was five mins late after dealing with a sick child and I instantly spat back "Mary (for argument) comes back from lunch half an hour late twice a week, you gonna say anything to her?" It was like I spat at him he didn't know what to say or where to look but fcuk that I'm not putting up with rubbish like that. Family employees find your own way!

    Both my parents were teachers. I still resent them for not leaving me the school.

    I'm sorry to hear that. Being stuck in a cinema full of ankle biters with sticky hands is my idea of hell.

    In work, the toilets are located outside our offices. We share them with the company on our floor. You need a fob to access our offices. I lose the plot when I go to the toilet, leaving the office door open, only to come back 3 minutes later to find the door closed.

    Every. Single. Time.

    Why, in the name of the sweet baby Jesus, someone would close the door is beyond me. This means that every time I have to go for a piss I have to bring my fob with me. >.< Half the time I forget it or chance my arm. Leave door open, go to the bathroom as fast as can and return to find the door closed, yet again. They're like ninjas with the door closing! I half think someone does it on purpose just to spite me. On a few rare occasions I've been lucky enough to return to an open door.

    Fcuking fobs and fob access, biggest load of sh*te ever!

    When you order a sandwich at the deli counter and the server assumes you only want one thing and quickly moves on to the next customer before you've had a chance to order something else;


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,866 ✭✭✭Fat Christy


    People who don't put weights back on the rack correctly.....or just don't put them back at all.

    People who take your weights without asking, especially if you are trying to do sets of something.

    People who come up to you in the gym when you are doing something and ask you how long more you will be using such a thing.

    Anti-protein people who tell you you'll get fat from drinking protein shakes. These will be the same people that starve themselves for a month in order to lose weight. Or worse the fatties that stuff themselves with crap food and then lecture you about taking protein.

    I hate you all, you annoy the sh*t out of me!

    Well capable people who haven't the hands to wipe their arse.
    People who can't keep their mouth shut.
    People who can't put their phone away for 2 minutes.

    Just in an awful humour today, and that is not even funny.
    I didn't say people wipe their arse with their hands, I said they haven't the hands to wipe their arse. Big difference.
    In other words.
    Adults who can't do anything for themselves.

    They're standing opposite each other, aren't they?

    "Selfies" have hit a new low, now they're having other people take pictures of them taking pictures of the other person. It like they are now taking pictures of someone else, which is contrary to the whole idea of...

    I don't think I can do this any more, this whole living among people thing, I think it's time for early retirement to a log cabin in the Rockys with a grizzly bear for company. We can eat fish or something -

    Wrecks my tits that one.

    'Would you like you're panini toasted? Of course I fricking do, it's a panini. Then when I bite into the thing it's only luke warm and the cheese isn't even remotely melted. It looked like it had only been threatened with toasting.:mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,341 ✭✭✭miezekatze


    Really persistent door to door salesmen and especially chuggers that won't take no for an answer. Just got the second one in two days as I came home from work, they annoy me so much! I told him at least 5 times that I'm not signing up and he just kept trying to guilt trip me and asked me to justify my reasons for not wanting to sign up. I almost had to shout at him to leave. Maybe next time I'll just sign up with a fake name and bank details, be easier.

    I was just coming home, we entered the driveway at the same time. Same thing happened yesterday. Both times I said from the start I'm not interested but just couldn't get rid of them.

    I can never read Daily Mail stories on my phone and they're linked all over the place here! When I click into them, I can see the story for about 2 seconds before a menu drops down on the left hand side and covers the whole page. It doesn't go away when I scroll. Annoying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,006 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    When the Supermarkets or Boots etc.ask me EVERY time "have you a loyalty card?"

    No I don't. I wouldn't give them a smidgin of my personal or shopping details, and I don't care how many feckin points I might have now. Then they ask would you like to sign up.... GRRRRR. NO THANK YOU.

    And if I DO have a loyalty card, sure I will just hand it to you obviously. Wrecks my head.

    Get away from me now!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,006 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    Just don't answer the door

    Ha Ha. Our doorbell broke about two years ago. Never bothered fixing it. Those who need to get in have my mobile number, the rest can go scratch.

    So, no Election canvassers, door to door peddlars, Jehovahs, beggars, chancers, and so on.

    Bliss.

    When you organise a party and do so through facebook events, and the exact same people could never be arsed RSVPing either way. Three times running and I'm close to just not inviting them next time round.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 8,867 ✭✭✭eternal


    I lost the back of a gold earring and now I can't hoover because it will be gone for good. This is why I prefer cheap stuff cos when it breaks or you lose it, then you don't mind.

    Crows building their nests in the chimney so you end up with a very smokey house and have to sit in the car until it's gone :(
