Things That Trivially Annoy You.

TA that a site I frequently order from have changed delivery method from courier to An Post, whose deliveries I’m rarely home for and so it means ill have to make frequent journeys to the depot for collection. At least the courier used to fire it in the house any old way or leave it with a neighbour, which suited me grand.

Spent 15 minutes in the car to work this morning trying to think of a movie title.

My Brain "...Last of the something??..it's the one with Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins!...1994!...the James Horner music!...Tristan Ludlow!....directed by Ed Zwick!....Last something?!?!?....John Toll, won an oscar for the cinematography!...aaaaarghh!!!..." Knew everything about it except the title.

I even started whistling the melody in desperation and still nothing. I refused to give into temptation and look it up. Eventually "Legends of the Fall" registers in my brain and I then come to the firm conclusion that it's one sh1tty title for a movie.

My latest Littlewoods order.
I decided to order a pair of shorts in a sale.
First I selected my size and added to the bag.
Item went out of stock whilst in my basket.
Then I said I'll go up a size and there website went down for maintenance.
I eventually ordered them.
Got a text to say my item will be delivered during the day.(Last Friday).
So, I stayed in to get them.
No, sign of order at I kept of tracking it. logged in after 2pm.
It said return to depot because of being out of time.
Order arrived on Monday.
I opened them and they sent the wrong shorts.

Dial Hard

The way Irish people lose the run of themselves the second the sun comes out. People wearing their summer clothes in March is bad enough but I just passed a bunch of kids playing on a slip & slide. It's fcuking 13 degrees out!

Trigger Happy

The fashion for men wearing too short trousers and ankle socks. Just wrong.

When workers slavishly provide "computer says no" or formulaic responses. Instead of thinking about the bigger picture, showing some inititave and taking a practical approach without breaching procedures. Or offering a solution that protects their employer while still providing a modicum of acceptable customer service.

The text is sent out to you before it reaches your depot so you can make other arrangements,
to a neighbour..(some times the neighbour goes out)
to a local (stamp selling) post office
a day you will be in
to where you work, (usually best option)
local shop.
But that option is only available for a few hours from time you get it.

Yes, I understand you.

For example, I was thinking of somebody working at Tesco and somebody coming in demanding Alcohol at 22:05 or a parent demanding to know about another child results off a teacher.
