I'm intrigued, what is your profession, I'm guessing you work for Irish Water All jokes aside I can understand because I work for an organisation that wouldn't be that well liked either so I've gotten to the stage of not telling people where I work

Those nights when the duvet cover just clings to you.

Having to decide to not book the 3 days away because the money could be needed elsewhere. It really sucks, I was looking forward to it because there won't be even a slight holiday in 2 years but couldn't justify it.

I'll spend my days on the decking out front dipping my feet in a bucket of water and if I feel frisky I'll visit the glorious beaches of Courtown.

selfish commuters who dont give a crap about anyone else but themselves. For the crowded luas they will lean against the poll and not move down the aisle etc etc.

Nothing worse . I ended up taking the duvet off the bed in all the heat and put on a big throw that I would usually use on the sofa. I keep waking up wound up like a fcukin mummy in it

We'll get to my TA in a bit but this!!! Limped on to LUAS this morning hoping to get a seat - and there's a lanky streak of cow p**s STANDING in front of a seat!!!!

Why ??????? If evil thoughts work he just be slumped over his desk ...... now. **THUD**

My TA. In a bar in Manchester on Friday, asked for a pint of Stella. They brought me some Spanish garbage called "Estrella".

Told them they had it wrong. "But it's about the same". No, you will bring me what I ordered!!!

Not usually THAT person - but it's like ordered Chateau Lafitte 1992 and getting told "well this dog pee wrung out of a tramp's bobble hat is about the same...."

I work part-time in a museum during the week, and there is a fella with autism and other needs that comes in for a few hours every Thursday and Friday. Basically under the pretense to do the odd job here and there, but it's mainly seen as a good way to help him stick to a routine.

Anyway, he was in the last day I was on, and while I understand his condition, he does get in the way on occasion. One of my colleagues went down to get some office supplies just at the same time the other fella went down to Starbucks for his usual morning visit. Came back with an extra large blueberry cheesecake frappucino. Technicolour brilliance.

Anyway, my colleague returned with office supplies and in the meantime the frappucino was placed on a shelf directly below the trajectory of the till for the cash register. Of course, I never noticed the positioning of said frappucino (the shelf is sort of out of your line of vision) and when I opened the till to sort out the receipts, it knocked over and spilled EVERYWHERE.

Cue wild animation from the fella saying I should have moved it (although my work colleague was quick to point out that he shouldn't have left it there to begin with.) and me not only having to clean up the whole mess but also having to shell out €5.40 for a replacement. You'd swear I had killed his cat or something.

Not alone did the place stick of dairy for the rest of what was a warm day, but the area of the floor was filthy when I came in this morning. This is why I don't drink coffee! But on the flip-side, I gained a new-found appreciation for those who work in that field.

I am in a job three months and received an invitation to a going away lunch for someone that is leaving. I think I spoke to him once and he's not on my team so I declined. I'll sign his card and wish him all the best but I didn't want to go to his lunch.

My TA is my manager ringing me and texting me when I was in the canteen asking where was I and why wasn't I going.

I don't get paid for my lunch hour and I honestly don't see the issue. I never accepted the invitation in the first place. It's not like I accepted it and never bothered to show up

I've no doubt this will be said to me at a later stage hmmmmm

Now you have it. Why do girls want to look like auld fellas in their 80's?
TA that as time passes it gets harder and harder to buy a normal pair of jeans or t-shirt what with all the stupid new styles that are taking over.

The boyfriend jeans I like(there are a few kinds) are loose fit around the legs/thighs and I assume the bum. Similar to men's trousers without the tapering below the knee, I see on my girls, b/f jeans are torn at the knees and a bit baggier. But that is in comparison to the skinny jeans that are popular atm.

TA that I can't get the only kind of jeans I should wear with my 'curvey' figure anymore.

At my wits end trying to find a banking type institution that will pay my c/t's, has atm card and let me do in branch(NOT online/phone) transactions:mad::eek:

Fucking Irish fucking rail.
We're 30 minutes into a 2 hour, 10 minute train journey and there's 15 people standing in our carriage alone. The train was just outside Kildare when the button was pressed to display names above seats so there's anger in the carriage. I'm fine in my seat because I booked it but I'd say 3/4 of the people in my carriage are sitting in someone else's seat.

I just listened to a statement on the radio given by Irish Rail to Conor McGregor's father because he got too many coins out of the ticket machine at the Dart station. Is this real life?
My train was 15 minutes late departing on Friday evening, the train yesterday was a shit show, this sort of stuff happens regularly and ticket prices are absolutely scandalous, I could go on... but Irish Rail have time to issue a statement to Conor McGregor's father because he's Conor McGregor's father.

Took a taxi home from work this am, had a nice chat with driver.

When he pulled up outside the house, I handed him 10e for an 8.50e fare, was never offered the change, even tho I would have been happy to tip him the difference, had I gotten it back.
