People that have more time off than I get in a year, then moan about it.

Working, as I do, in the public sector I get 30 days holiday, plus bank holidays (8 days) plus we shut down over Xmas and this doesn’t get taken out of my allowance, another 4/5 days.

In total that gives me 43/44 days holiday every year, I usually carry 5 (the most allowed) over to the next year too…

:lou_is_a_flirt:

People who have so much fun at work that they can’t tell when they are on holiday.

Just want to say this is not the case for all us public sector workers.

My dear old Ma’ (she’s not actually that old) is also a public sector worker, she seems to constantly be on holiday.

That said, she has been going through what seems like constant restructuring and relocation for like the last 15 years.

Yep they like to keep us on our toes (anxious) as to whether we will have a job or not. I’ve been through a few reorganisations. On a temp contract at present and the work we do has been panned (nationally the work we do it) so may not be a team that carries on. Anyway. Yes though our holidays are generous there is some rubbisj we deal with but the rest of you go fight for some more and not bring us down to 20 days a year. :slight_smile:

Today the lack of air conditioning on public transport. Air-conditioning on the buses works superbly on cooler days when people keep the windows shut. But on a hot day everyone opens the windows and then no aircon. It’s the same in offices. People don’t appear to understand how it works.

Boilers - they go on the blink leaving you playing Russian roulette with the shower every morning, then you get to the point when you have to get someone in, who tells you that it just needs a new x. Then tells you x costs £450. Then tells you he won’t have until Friday, sentencing you to cold showers for the next few days.

Bastard thing.

People who work in the private sector who moan about lack of holidays but get paid twice as much as me.

Only getting a business class ticket one way to get back and forth to work.

Have to sit in baggage class for three and half hours with only a couple of stewardess’s doling out the free drink.

26mph??

It’s a frigging 60mph limit - why are you driving your own little pace car at 26mph and causing a one woman tailback??

Did she also slow down for speed cameras…is it the Redbridge Road that goes from the M271 to the West Quay area? It’s a 50 limit on it until you get to the West Quay turnoff, yet people still slow down to 30 to go past the speed camera on it!!

Discovering my knackered boiler miraculously decided to produce hot water at some point over night, and then having lulled me into a false sense of security, it reminds me that it is still in fact buggered as the hot water runs out 30 seconds into my shower

Bastard thing

The limit is 40mph now

Fuck off with the mph.

Just spent an evening on a new joiner getting to know the team drinks

Jeez, wouldn’t have hired he/she if they couldn’t do the job. Evening wasted. Thanks corporate cunts!

I hate it when you cut some box tape with your teeth and then get a bit of the tape stuck to the back of your throat and every second seems like your last. I’m sure we’ve all experienced that.

How did you find that out?

All right thinking people should make it a priority to take the selfie stick from the offending party and stick up his/her arse!

I’ll leave you to confiscate this one, SoG
