Hot tubs full stop. Don't get it at all. Why do I want to sit in a warm bath in the garden...

Our’s is a cold tub 10 months of the year. We float bags of ice in it in July/August to cool it down. The alternative is to stay in, in the afternoons as it’s often in the low 40’s.

Beer, book, music… why not…

The data protection and compliance recorded cobblers at the start of nearly all contact centre calls adds little value, increases wait times and is a right p.i.a.

Aaargh.
We've got a client who insist we play a message when the call is answered, that message is longer than the agreed SLA for answering the call, and the client insists the timer starts when the call is connected and the message starts playing :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

And when you pointed out the "challenge" of meeting the SLA, what did they say? 🤣

For those who aren’t aware of her, she is an ‘influencer’ who sleeps with loads of students and puts it on her various channels. She is claiming to have broken the record for having sex with 1057 men in 12 hours - 1 every 41 seconds!!! Her parents must be so proud

I wouldn't want to be the fact checker on that claim but I'm questioning those numbers 🤔. Even though it's cobblers, it's done the job. No doubt this is on various social media pages, people will be googling who she is.

Very sad though, everyone involved ( however many)

She'll be left with a bit more than a random irritation after that. 😵‍💫

If she was a bloke he'd have been stoned in the street.

We've found that MiL, who has mild dementia and is in a care home, likes doing jigsaws with us when we visit. So we buy a lot of jigsaws. This one was delivered by Amazon today...

Their packaging is crazy. Think you need to tick the "it's a gift" box to avoid this? I ordered some pillows. They came in a huge box with brown paper protection paper everywhere. Also ordered a stoneware dog drinking bowl which came loose in a box - in about 50 separate pieces. I had to return it!

Agreed. The size of the packaging in proportion to the contents in too many cases is ludicrous. Its quite disappointing when householders are making great efforts to be "eco friendly".

I believed every word you said until you got to 1 every 41 seconds. That’s 1057 show offs.

Did you keep the box for the dogs?
