What is hacking you off today?

I applied for a new job about 3 weeks ago, and our intranet just tells me "application accepted". It'd be nice if they'd let me know if I'm going to get an interview at least. :angry:

Let me guess, the job is dealing with recruitment process improvement.

Lordy, no. However NR is particularly shocking in regards to that - in a previous role, a job was offered to an excellent external candidate who got so fed up waiting for HR to pull their finger out, they accepted a job somewhere else. :facepalm:

Idiots in charge getting people up 2 hours early just to freeze our crown jewels off waiting for transport:angry:

Agreed, although our washing machine that keeps going wrong is a Bosch. However, I think the reason it keeps breaking is because my wife massively overloads it.

We've had Bosch stuff (Fridge Freezer and dishwasher) and we now have a Bosch Hob and Fan oven. We've got Siemens now for the Fridge Freezer, washing machine and dishwasher, rounding it off with a Miele tumble dryer. Same old business, get the best you can for as much as you can afford and it will normally last longer. That said, we used to have Miele fridge freezer and that died 2 weeks after the warranty did.

Our fridge and freezer are both Siemens too, they're great. Everything else is Bosch except the oven and hob, they're the crap that came with the kitchen and will be the first things we'll be shot of!

Food poisioning on the day of chocolate. :'( Damn Tesco Paella. :angry:

The wind and rain outside. Can't see me getting much sleep.

My 90yr old neighbour who is deaf as a post but yet accuses me of a "whirring sound" late at night, or even when the house is empty, and to compensate turns her telly up so loud you can hear it through the wall, right into my daughter's bedroom and wakes her up. You ask her nicely and she turns into a foul mouth hag. Thank **** I'm moving *hopefully*.

Will be harder to sell. Buyers are often put off by disputes with neighbours.

Yeah, considered that. May have a word with a mutual friend that has known her for years to resolve. Sadly she's losing her marbles.

My Dad lost alot of money selling his house because of a complete **** of a neighbour.

It won't come to that, even if I have to get her carted off to an OAP home. :smile:

I dread the summer as my downstairs 84 year old almost deaf neighbour, knocks on my door when the Ice Cream Van has just been, blaming me for playing knock down ginger, as her door bell ring chimes sounds like the Ice Cream Van, Lol.
The funny thing is I help her almost every day, and she still blames me for something I haven't done. She refuses to change her 30 year old useless hearing aid, that doesn't help.

Just found out that a very dear friend has organised her wedding, to which I am invited, for the 11[SUP]th[/SUP] June, the day of England’s first group game, placing me in an invidious position – do I miss a single game of football out of a whole tournament, or miss celebrating the happiest day of her life together with her friends and family?

I’m sure she’ll understand.
