On a similar note when people call children, "smallies" or "little people". I don't know why but I've an irrational dislike of those terms. It's like oh here comes Darby O'Gill and the little people. They're not leprechauns like and you wouldn't call adults big people or largies. Don't see what's wrong with calling them children or kids. The other two terms make them out like they're a novelty act in my head I think.

Have you tried taking an antihistamine. I get the little beggars as well, but when the first one appears I'm on the Citrine.

When someone leaves you on read for 22 hours and when they finally reply, you accidentally open the message 19 seconds after they send it. F*ck sake.

Big huge moth flying outside my room and it's distracting me, but I don't want to close the door because there's a nice breeze coming in.

Genuine dilemma (no I will not kill the moth, moths are harmless)

Badly Drunk Boy

I got in to work an hour early today so I can leave earlier, only to find a heap of boxes (deliveries) piled up on my desk. I hate when people put things on my desk but these boxes weren't even for me! Stoopid warehouse people!

Last Tuesday morning was worse when I was greeted by an oily vacuum pump sitting on the desk. :mad: What's wrong with people?

Not a fan of Irish names, but Cathal has to be the worst. And what makes it even worse is when people pronounce it "Cottle"

I've got a big moth in my house too. She is distracting as well, but she is far from harmless

You know those people who escalate everything to your manager when you push back? Very TA'd by those.

I work with someone in marketing who's supposed to support me in closing business with my target accounts. Except instead of helping, our weekly meetings are an exercise in me updating everyone on the account, her interrogating me about the account and her suggesting things that aren't helpful at all. I give feedback, she emails my manager. I push back on meetings because I have to prioritise an important client call, she emails my manager.

I wish she'd realise it doesn't work, it just antagonises me more to have to answer questions from my manager about the whole dumb thing and more importantly, this project doesn't help me, I know my accounts and you know Marketing, it's your job to show me how this isn't a waste of time.

TA'd by rude people and by Sales turning me into an asshole.

Sent a spreadsheet to a group of people in work a week ago. Kept seeing queries over the next few days looking for the information that I sent. Sent it again yesterday to try and clear up the confusion. On a call this morning, and get a chorus of 'Oh, I don't think I got that mail.' Read your fcuking emails and stop annoying me on a Friday

Trivially annoyed that people on an Irish website make blanket statements like ‘not a fan of Irish names’, but I wonder what the reaction would be if I said I wasn’t a fan of ‘Nigerian names’ or ‘Syrian names’.

And no, my name is not Cathal.

On the way home from work - A person decided that the spot before a busy t-junction was an intelligent place to pull in and let people out.

The novice driver holding up her phone to speak into it. Surely her passenger could have held it up for her?

The Pharmacy.
I rang yesterday and ordered a prescription.
Told them I'd call on my way home from work.
It would be better for social distancing and be handy just to pop in and out.

They said it would be ready for me.

So I call in today.
Cue the assistant searching down the back for about 10 mins then comes back and says it wasn't done and for me to hang on while they do it.
Another 10 minutes.
After working all day with no lunch break that last thing I want to do is stand in a shop for 20 minutes

An post is really bad at the moment have been waiting for a registered letter for 23 days now, numerous phone calls to them and filling in the missing form, it has now becoming not trivial but infuriating.

Beg to differ, posted a parcel in a Dublin area circa 1530 Thur.

She was in the hands of the addressee in Donegal at 0930 Friday.

RTE comic relief. And why does it need so many presenters? Only on for a couple of hours.
