What is hacking you off today?

[OldBlueLady]

The ********s (two of them) that phoned our office at 11 o'clock this morning.

Food bin all over the front drive AGAIN!!! Poxy animals, look all cutesy on the Christmas trampoline advert but leave a right old bloody mess to clear up!

Insomnia. Yay! :sad:

Haven't you got somewhere animal proof that you can store refuse such as an old chest freezer in the front garden?

Good point well made. Is it bedtime yet? :sad:

Invited to a works Christmas meal where I won't know anyone though it'll look a bit tardy if I refuse.

The idiocy of some people I work with. We have an on-line collaboration tool and (because I set up the entire thing) I have been tasked with ensuring every page is identical in format. At the top of each page we have a RAG status for that part of the project. We also write the colour in the little block of colour because one of the team is completely colour blind.

So I have a look today to see that one of the guys that owns one of the pages has decided his RAG status page should be labelled as "Blue"! I then explain to him that a RAG status can only be Red, Amber or Green, hence the name, and ask him to update it. He does, and calls it "Yellow".

FFS.

Did think about the yellow bottle box but it's got too many bottles in!

Don't the Castle Point food bins lock?

The handle can go forwards or backwards over the bin, which is supposed to lock or open it accordingly. Problem is, the night time visitors manage to get it open even with the handle in the supposed "locked" position. Clever little buggers!

And right now, I am supposed to be fast asleep having taken two tablets tonight after several poor nights of sleep. Surprise, surprise and I am wide awake!

I mark the perimeter of my premises the same way that animals do and the rich musk of an alpha male apex predator repels the creatures of the night.

Unfortunately Royal Mail also refuse to deliver to my house.

So I drove into work with Mrs MK and we dropped MK Jnr off at school. On the way to work, some absolute blind gobshite **** of a woman with two kids in a knackered old van pulls out on me and has the temerity to mouth of at me as if I was in the wrong (she was obviously late for school). I had to smile sweetly as I got a lot of silent swearing and arm waving as Mrs MK informed me that her kid is in the same class as mine. I did manage the single finger retort - I do hope I run into the blind **** at some school function. :angry:

So booking as train from MK to Euston in the morning is more expensive than travelling from St. Pancras to Paris. :stunned:

The 'lady' on the train that has just handed her two overweight children a family bar of chocolate each and a fizzy drink.

She is swearing under her breath about their behaviour whilst glued to a phone.
