    I'm annoyed with......TIME....or more the fact of how quick it goes.
    Sitting here inside in work and reminiscing of being younger and me and my siblings playing on my dad's back during the summer, only feels like yesterday. In the blink of an eye it's gone from having a strong dad who played with us to a frail father who we now look after.
    My parents are living by themselves now, gone are the days of they having 7 children with them and the home been a hive of energy. It seems to have happened in a blink of an eye.I grew up with 5 sisters and 1 brother in a 3 bedroomed house, laughs...fights...tears...but 9 of us always there, now we very rarely spend time together, our own families have taken us over but it doesn't stop me from thinking of the great family time we had when we were younger and sometimes wishing we could go back to those times.
    I'm 48 now and before people tell me I'm still young I know that but that does not stop the time going too fast. I've 3 chicks and when I look at photos from a few years ago I can't stop thinking of how the time is flying. I'm watching my chicks getting older and I'm dreading the time where I can't carry them on my back, hence I'm always messing and playing with them, cos I dread the day when I look at them and realise I'm not able too anymore. It's not right that it's going to fast.

    Dam you Time!

    Apologies for the rant folks...move along now.

    I know how you feel I started a thread on the exact same topic a few month......no, must have been last....eh.....no, I was sure it was just there a little while.........oh, it was 12 years ago :eek:

    When you’re stuck behind the slowest driver in history and think “ah it’s okay. I’ll be turning right here in a second and be rid of them”. And the second you have that thought they indicate right. Every time. EVERY TIME.

    And another driver related TA. I was coming home from town earlier, down country roads and there was heavy fog and I couldn’t see for dust. There was a car directly in front of me so I just said I’d follow them. I knew there was a left turn that I needed to take coming shortly so when they indicated left I followed them on the turn. Turns out they were turning into their house and I only realised this when I was half way in their drive way.

    They say they use the recordings for 'training and quality purposes'. There is no way they use any of my recordings for quality as the quality is always muck.

    So must be for training purposes.
    Bad training.

    Company A fcked up my husbands birthday present by sending me the wrong size.
    Now, Company B have fcked up his Christmas present by taking 4 weeks to process an order. They only started processing it when I emailed them to ask about the hold up. I thought I was doing so well ordering it in November coz it was coming from the States. I am beyond raging.

    POA

    Who the fupp advertises something for sale as POA? I'll assume they're either a chancer trying to get above market value for it, or a clueless moron who doesn't know it's value. Either way, I won't be buying off them.

    I was reading about controlling price information to inflate prices during the week. Too bad we're in the Internet age and information isn't hard to come by. They might all be listed as POA in Ireland, but there's loads available in the UK with clear pricing.

    I got bothered by a family member because I didn't go visit my cousin and his girlfriend in their new house since they moved into it 2 months ago.

    He works all morning and afternoon and she works in the same school I work in, which I do in the late afternoon til night time - so, essentially, our schedules are not in sync, so I can't visit anyone, really.

    I live and work in Waterford, and my fiancé lives and works in Kilkenny. Every weekend I spend my time up with her and has been this way for 8 years.

    Anyway, so yeah, I get lectured that I haven't visited them yet etc. etc.

    I texted him yesterday and asked him for his address.

    And this is what the messages comprised of:-

    Me: Well [cousin], what's your new address?
    Him: "I'm living in [this address], call up the weekend if you want.
    Me: You around Friday? I'm in Kilkenny at the weekend - - - - (which he already knows, my whole family know I do this, it's not a secret)

    Him: I'm out Friday evening/night. Leave it til over Christmas if you want

    Me: *thumbs up*

    And this is why I don't organise to meet up with people. I have a schedule that suits nobody - I work from 4pm, and it's within that time frame that the majority of the country finishes work, or at least my whole family. I work the latest hours out of everyone.

    They all seem to remember this until they want me to be somewhere or do something when it really doesn't suit, timewise - only then it's "he never does anything for ya"

    F*ck the lot of ya. When i move to Kilkenny within the next 7 months you'll forget I even exist.

    Tell'em to fuck off, what do they need you to visit for, are you a priest that's gonna bless the place or what?

    Needless packaging.

    I bought a box of fudge in Dealz. I open the mid-sized cardboard box, and I find a plastic bag in it. Inside the plastic bag there were 10, yes 10 pieces of fudge. The box and the bag could've held easily three times as much.

    Such an effing waste!

    I just witnessed a grown woman snarkily return her coffee and ask for a new cup because the staff spelled her name with a "G" instead of a "J" (her name was Jillian).
    Oh to have such little to be worried about. I almost envy her.

    The person working should have said

    "sorry about that, let me get you another"

    before handing her a cup that says 'CúNT'

    Some of the Dublin buses have two doors, one for getting on and one for getting off. The one for getting off is purposely located in the midsection of the bus so those getting off don't clutter the entrance and whole people waiting to board wait for people to get off. The second door is to prevent this crack. So anyway....on a packed bus today, not one person used the second door to get off, but instead choosing to trail through people standing, taking for.f*cking.forever there for delaying the bus. People from downstairs walking right past the exit door. Like wtf are people thick!!! There is announcement telling them this and everything.

Sit up straight, Put your legs down, stop fighting with your sister, use a fork, that's disgusting, eat with your mouth shut, why is there food all over the table, you ate this loads of times before so how come you don't like it now, stop shouting, use your fork, stop eating like a pig, rinse and repay ad nauseam

    TA when you reach the point on hols when your stack of laundry is larger than your stack of clean clothes. We just got here FFS. I am not mentally ready to deal with home again.
