    Do you not have to be more descriptive no? :P

    It'll be descriptive enough when you vacate (or should I say "evacuate"? :pac:) the cubicle.

    Just wondering, Boomers... where are you exactly when you're replying to our suggestions? :eek:

    An article on Facebook from what would usually be a fairly reputable newspaper about this young lad who now can’t get into his village because of the speed ramps. But he had his car lowered, so I don’t know what he’s complaining about? No one forced him to have it dropped, if it affects him that much, just get the suspension raised again :confused:

    Waiting on someone to ring and say what time they're calling in at . Was meant to be last week , I had to ring and ask were they coming , it was a no . They rang Friday and said it would be today , they would ring me first to let me know what time . I'm waiting until four and ringing them .

    TLDR ;
    Time wasters .

    Had a similar experience last weekend. We were expecting an overnight visit from someone we hadn’t seen in years. My mam cancelled an outing she was invited on and I made more sandwiches than Mrs Doyle could on her best day. Mam also bought a little gift for the person visiting. An hour before they were due to arrive they text to say they weren’t feeling well and would call another time. Now these things happen and all but but it was TA’ing nonetheless. Me and mam were half sandwich by the time the evening was out :pac:
    Only positive is as least the house got a good spruce

    Should add that this has happened more than once!

    At least you had sandwiches :D
    This is a "professional " , an expert in their field and rightly so , but somehow lacking in common courtesy and manners .

    Nothing worse! And you feel bad then having to ring and chase it up but yet they don’t feel bad leaving you hanging.
    Hope they show up :)

    No, I think he is more of a Method actor.

    Money just flying out of my account this month, hoping this would be a quite financial week this one, but noooooooooo.

    The computer I typed my uni project on looses formatting between savings and the tutor who will be correcting it has commented on my formatting skills previously, so no chance of her overlooking it.

    Do you know of an app called FB Purity?
    I use it. It cuts down on some of that


    It also tells you when a friend has unfriended you or deactivated their account.

    TA for people asking you questions when they already know the answer - just to see what you'd say. :mad:

    When you're trying to tell someone a story, but they keep guessing the next bit.

    "I met Paddy yesterday, he told me his dog.."

    -"Oh did the dog die?"

    "No, I met Paddy yesterday and he told me his dog is going to have.."

    -"Oh is it having pups?"

    "Ok just fcuk off I'm not telling you now"

    Today's notice: "you are cordially invited to a blood drive" ... "invited" :rolleyes: to give blood on behalf of the company, 'requested" is more like it

    emmm ok when is it? ....Date on the notice: YESTERDAY

    Seriously?

    Those vaguely throaty voiced and overly optimistic people on those phone/bank adverts. Is it the industry standard now?
