😠 The Little Annoyances Of Everyday Life (Part 1)

Going to the cup final is not “unneccessary expenditure”. It falls in the camp of emergency expenditure, like having to replace the boiler or fisxing your car.

Good luck finding another job

This one is quite a big annoyance. Kenneth Noye has won his appeal to be moved to an open prison. This is the guy who got away with knifing a police officer to death in his garden and also stabbed a guy to death on the M25. A nasty piece of work who should never see the light of day again. Absolutely ridiculous decision to move him to an open prison.

That is not an annoyance its a bloody disgrace

Could any body tell me what rights a prisoner should have in the jail they are kept ?

Let’s face it if all jails were built Identical none of this open jail shit .

You got banged up because the court found you guilty. You spent X hour locked up X hours eating and X hours exercising.

No TV No Internet No telephones.

Visits once a month.

If you are lucky they move you to the closest Jail to your kids/ second wife.

What is wrong with that?

Oil workers do it all the time.

Went to collect a parcel. Forgot passport (I don’t have a driving licence). I have a purse full of stuff with my name on. ID card with my photo on. Back home to get passport.

Ithe annoys me as I have ano email and barcode for said parcel. Surely that is enough.

Was this from the Post Office?

Jobs worth that is

You do not legally require a Passport or Driving license so other form of Identification can be used i.e. Your ID Photo card. I would have argued the point until they gave me the parcel to shut me up.

Benefit of living in a village… they just goiveit to you without the card, let alone Id!

DPD pick up shop. A pharmacy in this case. I once argued in the Hobbit when I was 30 as I had nothing on me to prove my age. Eventually they took my council ID as I’d have to be over 18 and legally allowed to bloody buy a drink in there. Cannot remember how I got home.

Apologies to @dubai_phil who got the spoken version of this rant.

If you’re one of these parents that takes infants to festivals, you can fuck off.

I love Glastonbury and the attention it pays to kids. Not only is there a tremendous amount for them to do that can also be enjoyed by the adult folk, but the nippers have an entire play field dedicated to them. Kids under twelve get in for nowt.

One of my regrets is not going earlier while I could have benefited from that. I would not have taken either of my children to the festival had they been infants. My bro is recently returned from Euro Disney after taking his two nippers. The youngest isn’t even two yet, and he regrets taking him along. Firstly, because it made everything harder, but also because there was no real benefit. His youngest nipper will not remember it.

As redundant as it turned out to be, at least my bro’s nipper stayed in the warm and had a civilised roof over his head.

Not so at Glastonbury. People will wheel their infant kids around the place in little carts. The kid will never remember it. To my mind, it’s pure self-indulgence on behalf of the parents, putting their kid in unnecessary jeopardy so they can see fucking Coldplay.

Twats.

Plastic mancs at work

I have had a parade of them in and out of my office this morning to have a gloat.

Some of them are dangerously close to being unemployed come lunch time

Shoes not being water tight in the torrential rain whilst in Dagenham. Totally living the dream this Monday morning.

Verbally abusing the boss is surely good enough grounds to fire a few.

Grandmothers that when they see a sleeping baby insist on poking it’s cheek and tickling his feet to make sure it’s still alive.

It’s only just gone down. Leave it alone until he wakes up. Then clean him and feed him if he needs it.

that will be called exercising the freedom of speech thing which we are meant to have you’re still not allowed to fire them.

Manc fan saying “Well that goal that wasn’t given, makes up for the offside goal that won you, your only trophy”!

Knob!

It’s annoying when any old twat can publish articles that masquerade as journalism. Look at this from footballtransfertavern.com in an article about two players Saints fans wouldnt be sad to see leave:

Pied was a player who was seemingly much loved by the gaffer Claude Puel at his previous club Nice.

But for one reason or another it just simply hasn’t worked out at the Saints for the French defender.

He’s not really featured and it’s likely that fans would rather see the wages put to better use to land a first team regular.

The 28-year-old right-back undoubtedly does not have a future at St Mary’s, and the Saints here in the Transfer Tavern really would not be too bothered if he departed in the summer.

“For one reason or another…” - are they referring to his kneel igament injury that has kept him out for the whole season? Idiots. I couldnt even be bothered to see who the second player they named was.

Going into work early to bag a desk with an actual screen that works. Usually takes 15-20 minutes of that and setting up. You’d think they’d want me to actually do work.

Why would you not have your own desk and screen and then if it fails call IT to replace it?

How could anybody expect you to work when you have to sneak in and basically steal a desk?

A mate took his 8 year old on holiday to the US. Stood looking at the majesty of The Grand Canyon at sunrise…turned to his son and awestruck said, “Look at that son” his son looked up at him and said, “What?”

Disneyland…he enjoyed…the rest forget it. :lou_eyes_to_sky:

When you key manages to go through the key ring loop, but when you try and get it out, can you fuck!! Then you are stood on the doorstep for 5 minutes, trying to get in your front door!!
