You know the way when you are going for an interview for a new job they say you should picture your interviewer naked?

I had to be the interviewer this morning and had that thought stuck in my head. Freaked me out that she was visualising me butt naked.

I thought that there was an unwritten rule (actually, now that I think about it, there probably is also a written rule) about discussing abortion in the workplace. Politics, religion, abortion, the rules of the road, diet and exercise - these topics are sure to get a big row going, and you really don't need that stress in a workplace that is stressful enough already.
I just had to endure 2 colleagues discussing how Leo is a disgrace and then a radio interview that was done a couple of weeks ago during which abortion was discussed. NOT APPROPRIATE.
I'm all for a healthy debate but abortion is something that is rarely discussed rationally and the workplace does not benefit from irrational discussions.

Puzzled about what caused a drastic change in attitude towards me, when nothing had changed in my attitude or manner, waiting in a hospital this am it struck me that the "Adult" closest to these young people has form for bad mouthing people behind their back to control the narrative.

This person had a life-changing illness a dozen or so years ago and had changed this behavior when she saw what side her bread was buttered on, raging I forgot that she was like that and hadn't put up the appropriate defenses to protect myself.

I expect you to get 1000 likes on this post because this has to be one of the most annoying things ever!! My husband does this all the time so I'll be doing my grocery shopping on the laptop, have a quick glance in the fridge/press and see the packaging off of something and think there's some left but there fucking isn't:mad:

Wut?!?

I don't have a Chest Infection. I don't have a Cold. I don't have that extreme 'Flu that's killing people. I have a bit of everything and it's pure annoying. :mad: I wish I would get an outright Chest Infection and be done with it, or a dog's dinner of a Cold, and at least then I would know I have a Cold and could retire to bed for the week. But I have neither and a bit of both at the same time, and it's a major p.i.t.a. I'm not smothered with a runny nose, I'm not hoarse with a chesty Cough. I still have a really bad Cough, but it isn't a sniffly sneezy thing, and it isn't a hoarse chesty thing. It's likely the beginnings of a Chest Infection, - it's a catchy raspy hard-to-breathe, dry horrid tickly cough, with a Sore Throat to add to the mix and it makes me want to gag and retch and heave... Yayyy... :rolleyes::(

Spent the whole day bringing the kids in my class to port-a-loos. A huge novelty of course which meant they ALL had to go. I used so much hand sanitizer, my skin is going to fall off.

NO! I am standing up against this comment. I use the tiniest smallest amount of milk in my tea, the amount of times some inconsiderate so n so will throw out the last drop. It mightnt have been enough for you but it was enough for me aaarrrghhhh!

We have fairly decent IT security in work, but every now and again you’d always get one of those ‘Russian Wives’ spam emails, which you’d spot a mile away and just delete! A Trivial Annoyance if ever there was one!

Now we’ve got some super spam finder killer type service going which identifies the dodgy emails before they get to us!! Great, TA dealt with!!


New TA: getting an email from the super spam finder Every Time it detects and withholds a spam email!!!

So 1 annoying email replaced by another!

Our one sends us a mail when it finds one, then sends us reminders as well!
And to manage them you need to open another tool in a browser although the options of what you want to do are in the original email.

The use by dates wearing off of spice/ herb jar lids. Also that I rarely use enough of any of them and end up throwing them out.
When it isn't clear on packaging if it is recylable or not. I turned over a plastic raspberry punnet to check if it was and of all things there was a dishwasher symbol on it , WTF

I'm so sick. Proper fcuking miserably unwell. Have been on and off for ages and finally when I spent Sunday night choking I decided to go to the doctor to see if I had actually got an infection. I did of course, throat and chest. Throat is particularly bad apparently. Today I think I now also have a sinus infection.

None of that is my TA though. I'm sitting here in serious agony wondering how long it's going to take for my Nurofen cold and flu to give just a tiny bit of relief.

TA I realised I never actually took them

My wife is worse .. she uses up almost all of a packet of something, but leaves the tiniest amount behind, 3 or 4 leaves of salad, half a slice of ham, etc. and then hides it at the back of the fridge where nobody can see it until it's way past its use by date or gone mouldy.

Booked an appointment in the doctor for 17.00, arrive a few minutes early at 16.50. Not seen until 18.20.

I'd say it's a regular complaint but doctor's "Next please" policy instead of calling out a name is very irritating. There's nothing stopping people without appointments just sitting in the waiting room and going in ahead of me. If they were there before me I'd (and I assume most people) wouldn't challenge their right to go next.

I've to go back to the doctor tomorrow and will for sure be bringing a phone charger with me for the wait as my battery went last time.

Nose hair!!!

It grows at the rate of rhodedendrons in Kerry! I trimmed mine, along with eyebrows and ears a couple of night ago.
This morning it looked like There was a tarantula trying to escape from my nose. I need to upgrade to a diesel powered trimmer.

If it would only grow on my head.

Let them all grow long enough, and you'd have yourself a comb-over.

I tried trimming it once and the prickly ends irritated my nose for days after. Plucking only for me. Though that can make your eyes water. Funnily enough they only grow in my right nostril.

Got a new computer in work. It's a top of the line macbook pro. It's also my first proper experience with mac. That means that I'm googling stuff like "How to lock a mac" And when I find it's the "Command, option, eject" keys I'm googling "What's the eject key"

After a week I'm used to it but I'm still unable to lock it without it going to sleep which means I can't go to lunch and let it run stuff by itself.

Set a hot corner, put it to something like Start Screen Saver. Should lock the screen but prevent your Mac from going to sleep.

Also means you'll then be able to lock your screen simply by moving your mouse to the desired corner, e.g. top left.

System Preferences, go to “Mission Control” and click the “Hot Corners” button in the lower corner. Configure from there.

If a password isn't automatically required after screen saver, go to Security > General and there's a check box there where you can set how long after screen saver is triggered do you require password - immediately, 5 seconds etc.

I'm sorry in advance for this.

If you are eating, best you skip this post and move onto another thread.

Ahem... here goes.

In the men's toilet in work here, there is some bloke who uses the toilet and leaves one (always just the one) lone, singular, pube balancing on the toilet seat. It has happened on a number of occasions now.

Would you not wipe down the seat after you use the loo? What kind of barbarian am I working with here? I mean, he is one step above the basic animal on the evolutionary scale.

I can also tell you the guy is not one for personal grooming given the length of it.

Every time it happens, I lose another little bit of faith in the world

When you change gas provider it asks for a reading, you give it you get the welcome pack with T's&C's...
30 days later they email you asking for another, but cant seem to give it online or by phone (robot) a few days later got another request looking for a reading, so rang again waited for a person, got through, I hadn't been changed over...HOW, I got the welcome pack, got an account number, was asked for a reading..

10 days after being connected, (took 40 days from initial date) I had E50.68 taken from my account for it, for 10 days service?

I rang them again, "It's the service you signed up to, fixed monthly payments"

NO I didn't, it's not mentioned anywhere in the plan I signed up to, it says bi monthly billing and variable direct debit.

The answer.... gotta love this.....You get bi-monthly billing, but pay E50.56 monthly, to off set.
WTF does that mean?

Got E50.56 taken from my account again today, Still haven't received one bill from them yet.

Time for another phone call and a rant methinks.

Should be easy enough to set up a rule in Outlook or whatever email client you use to automatically move all emails from a given sender and/or a given subject line to a specified folder.

When you read a conversation someone thinks you're never going to see and see yourself being called a whore and accused of cheating and having your lips done so you can suck harder. Wouldn't mind but the person who said it looks like she was set on fire and put out with a shovel.
