Things dat Trivyully Annoy You (part whatever) *MOD WARNING IN OP* NEW

Yup, happens all the time, and it's the height of ignorance on behalf of the seller.

For the first time in my life I asked to speak to a manager. I always give people the benefit of the doubt (having a bad day, don't know what's going on in their life etc)

However, on we go ....I was in the supermarket. I was buying an item we use a lot of so I always try to take from the back of shelf (stock rotation and all that)

I moved the front item out of the way to get the back items. A woman was stacking the shelves beside me but I wasn't in her way, she was about 2 foot away but her stock trolley was blocking the shelves so I was squeezing past it.

So anyway I moved the item, took my item put it in trolley, went back for second, third and fourth item . I was returning to get the fifth and final item when she put the original item back in its place, which I removed to get my fifth item. Well she lost the head at me over doing that.*

This was the third or fourth time she's had some sort of strop....If I see her stacking the shelves I usually try to come back later.

So yeah I complained as I seriously doubt I'm the only one she has done it too. I also don't appreciate being given out to.

* yes I've worked in retail too and I know it's annoying when you've everything faced off and a customer comes along and ruins it, but 1. The whole purpose of the supermarket is for customers to take stock off shelves and 2. I always face off the products if I've moved them....I sometimes even face off products as they've been stacked arse ways 😂🤣🤣

Looking for a multi-pack in a local shop, I could see as I came it was on the very top shelf way out of my reach. I asked the person behind the till to get it for me(given its proximity to the till and what used to be H&S) I was told I would have to get it myself as they were too small to get it.

I must have looked annoyed as once I was at the side of the counter I tried to reach up they said if I couldn't get they would try. But I could stand on the edge of the display if I wanted to.

So when I got it down, a crack was made about how much taller I am than they are( like a half inch and twenty years older) then it was at the top end of my budget and I started to get those shooting muscle strain pains. Ta

As the staff member smirked at me giving me the item, I fired off an email to their HQ about how unsafe it was to force staff to reach so far over their heads to reach stock without the proper equipment to support them in doing so. They emailed back, giving me a rundown on all their safety measures in place that week, Was in again a couple of days later, no sign of any of the measures mentioned in the email and I still had the muscle strain from reaching so high for such a long period of time!

*Obv I could have told staff to f off and get it themselves but I wasn't in an emotional space to deal with a hissy/spiteful member of staff or delay while they tried to find a member of staff who was better placed to get an item which was 6 feet off the ground.

Went to look for vol au vent cases in three different shops / supermarkets.

two out of the three shops the young fella and girl I asked, didn’t know what a vol au vent was…

first….he looked at me like I asked to walk into his house and asked piss in his washing machine…

second place, girl hadn’t a clue…

third, knew what they were, went off to check with a colleague… “ sorry, we only get them in the lead up to Christmas “

what the thundering fûck is Christmasy about vol au vents….? and how would anyone working in food retail not know what they are 👀

It's very funny when Irish people are triggered by small things like this.

On my way to the bus stop this morning, as I was approaching the main road, a smoker appears suddenly and starts spluttering, coughing and spewing on the footpath. It was revolting. To quote Alex in A Clockwork Orange, he was being “a b@stard with no manners, without a dook of an idea how to comport himself public-wise”

That I did connections, but made a balls of copying it 😡

Plugged my phone in to charge Yesterday and it wouldn't charge.

I noticed a burning smell slight smell.

I bought a new charger and it wouldn't work.

I then remembered I had a charger in my room. It didn't charger but I got a terrible burning smell and it the connector was roasting hot.

I need a new phone.
