Random Irritations

Being woken by the dog barking like crazy at 5.30 this morning, went down to investigate and found a Fox standing on patio table with the dogs favourite red ball in its mouth! He looked at me then nipped over the fence nicking the ball! Dog charged around the garden for about 5 minutes then just laid on the grass distraught!
That will teach him to put his toys away when he's finished playing with them:)
 
Recruitment Agencies!
I have taken the time to put together an accurate and honest CV that lists my skills and experience, so why do so many agencies contact me about jobs that I clearly do not have the skills to do?
OK, one or two gaps in technical skills may not be a problem, but some of the roles are way off the mark of what I am capable of doing.

Stop wasting your time, your client's time and MY time!!!!

Used to annoy the hell out of me, as an employer, to receive CV's that didn't even come close. I then told the agencies that if they sent me a CV that didn't pass the criteria of qualifications and experience they would be dumped. To be fair, only one agency got dumped. All the rest got onboard, especially when I told them I'd already dumped one agency for doing it.

It just needs employers to be very firm with them.
 
Clouds.

I set up my telescope yesterday evening, looking to get some decent images of Jupiter and Saturn. Just as the sun was setting, in rolled the clouds.

What's the difference between a Kia and a Jehovah's Witness?
You can close the door on a Jehovah's Witness!
 
People who think planting a tree 400 + miles away is going to capture the carbon their private plane, yacht, Bentley emits. Keep lecturing the rest of us, ignore your own advice but hey it's okay because you planted 2 saplings in the Highlands :mad:
 
My FiL, who suffers from dementia, invited two Jehova Witnesses into the house. Not sure who was more shocked, them or my MiL who was taking a nap in her armchair!

Hot Jew vanishes ............................... anagram of Jehovah Witness.
 
The factory staff are in the next door office this morning doing a re-packing job. Having to listen to their chat is mind numbing and deflating. I've had 15 minutes of why the world was better when kids could be whacked by any passing stranger, why rulers should be allowed to be used by teachers to crack pupils, why hitting kids generally is a good idea and will solve most of the problems of today :rolleyes:
