    Permit is ripped, I'll be picking up beads from the necklace for a week and all the chords on the air freshener have snapped. It's as if they got annoyed at them being there and ripped them off because a single chord was still dangling from the mirror.

    Contemplating sending them a very not so nice message once I've calmed down.

    Fcuk that tbh. I'd properly rage at that. I am a professional lawyer and genuinely think I'd get you off murder if you killed the borrower.*

    *You'd still get done for manslaughter which is approx 4 years but in this case, possibly worth your while.

    There's a spider after taking up residence by my bed, he is resident behind the nightstand. I tried to move it but he scurried away so I am now stuck sleeping neck to neck with Mr Spider for the foreseeable future.

    That's terrible!
    ...they gave you a perfect reason to never let them borrow the car again, regardless.... if they are willing to disrespect something as simple your do dahs, can you imagine how they would disrespect an entire car or the rules of the road, if they got annoyed? No thanks!

    That genuinely, GENUINELY, p*sses me right off.

    when I'm watching, let's say, the news and they go to a break and when it comes back on the newsreader says 'welcome back'. what do you mean welcome back? you are the one that went off, I was here all the time, I didn't go anywhere!

    Similar to when your in a shop waiting to pay for something, card/money in hand waiting for the cashier to scan through your things.

    They announce the total with the phrasing "thats €5.23 there when your ready". What do you mean when Im ready. Im clearly ready and waiting.

    There's nothing more annoying than knowing that your interview is just to cross the t's and dot the lower case j's so that someone can be promoted internally.

    Nope. It's not as if there was much hanging there, only three small things and my permit. I hate when people have too much crap hanging, those fluffy dice etc..
    Anyway I text them how annoyed I was and a photo of the mess and said is this the respect you have for my car? You won't be getting it again. They text back and said it was "illegal for me to have those things hanging there and they did me a favour".
    So if it's "illegal", tell me, and I'll remove them myself. Don't take it upon yourself to rip my things in my car and throw them on the floor.

    Even more annoyed now, tbh.

    I assume this was a family member coz if it wasn't' I'd probably never speak to that person again. They did you a favour? F*ck right off. So rude!!!

    TA'd about everything to do with traffic. Slow bus drivers, people not merging properly, turning right in the no-right-turn lane, changing lanes without indicating, ignoring red lights, walking out in front of the car, oh I could keep going.

    I know it was warm and sunny earlier and its probably just me but Im sitting in the back garden and I'm freezing.
    There's a bit of a chill in the air.

    TA'd by people on "diets" who shun a slice of birthday cake for fear they'll gain weight.
    It doesn't work like that!

    I have a few colleagues like that. They eat porridge for breakfast, salad for lunch and they always turn down birthday cake. And they appear to put on more weight.

    TBF it is about getting into a mindset. A piece of cake there might lead to a few biscuits there and then the next thing ya know.... Not everyone is like that but some are :)

    TA I got some sauce on my tie at lunchtime - bringing it to a dry cleaner is an admission I should be wearing a bib!

    Dublin - the traffic, commuting, difficulty in getting anywhere. Just having to go there for courses of any consequence. The cost of accommodation is prohibitive even for the couple of days.

    The course is really good and I'm enjoying it (I think) but unfortunately my attitude after 3 hours sleep, a 5am alarm clock and an hour walk each way to and from the station, is less than stellar. I am questioning my sanity in signing up there's a lot of work ahead.

    Why would you need a firefighter to start a fire. Aren't they meant to put them out :D


    TA the bullsh*t some people spew on this site. And more TA for the poor bastards who believe it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,589 ✭✭✭DoozerT6


    Slightly more than TA'd with my job at the moment.

    I feel trapped.

    If you have vaseline and cotton pads/balls. Slather them with the vaseline and you've homemade firelighters. There'll be no firefighter to help you light it though! :)

    When you get a free tea in McDonalds (from the 6 stickers) but they refuse you a receipt.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,633 ✭✭✭✭Widdershins


    TA at the people who have to complain about the same thing that's bothering everyone around them. Everyone else shuts up and gets on with it. Same person complaining about trivial things like having to eat sandwiches (that his missus makes for him, and they look fine) for work lunch every day and how sick he is of bread, saying this to a colleague in a wheelchair, whose wife left him and whose mother recently died in sad circumstances. The look of ''well you ungrateful bastard'' on his face was interesting.
    Maybe I should delete this, and tell sandwich man about this thread.

    My wireless headphones that I loved so much have broke and I have a 500 kilometre round trip to do on Saturday


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,073 ✭✭✭Rubberlegs


    My TAs are all laundry related:

    1. The birds that I lovingly chopped up fat and broke up bread for crapped on my washing.
    2. The teenagers sheets are stained with make up and nail varnish.
    3. I went to take the towels out of the tumble dryer this evening to discover I hadn't turned it on. No dry towels and no way am I listening to the dryer for the next couple of hours.

    My TA is selfish bullies. Not so trivial actually, but those people who can make you feel worthless and awful with one word
