Random Irritations

[Slime]

Being bitten on the leg by a spider.
They may be small but my God they pack a punch.
Jan 15th strikes me as a bit early for my first bite or sting of the year.

And so did Elvis...

Me too. It's great for my blood glucose levels as well. People like me are why we don't have an NHS.

People who walk along with their mobile phone in the palm of their hand with it in on loudspeaker and having a conversation. I'm really not interested in listening to your conversation.

Try "accidentally" bumping into them and watching the panic on their faces as they lose control of it

Three hours on the phone to Indian call center for eON trying to explain their bill of £500 for one month's electricity in a new property is wrong because of their incorrect start readings. Multiple hang-ups or just stuffed on hold.
One call back from English complaints team and issue resolved in five minutes.

Not trying to stereotype but the evidence here was unfortunately all too clear. And three hours of my life on a phone headset I will never get back. But I did clear a bunch of levels on Candy Crush.

I had a similar issue with Scottish power. Told me I would be waiting 48hrs and 37minutes for one of their operatives. Tried again and it was still in excess of 40hrs ... so I cancelled the standing order and strangely they called me.

That's probably the main reason I left TalkTalk. Too long on the phone to people in another country who could only follow a script and often couldn't resolve the issue.

Being lied to by new members.....

So nothing big was actually coming?

I’m shocked. And disappointed

That is my world with HSBC business banking right now. 0 marks for customer service.

HiD has just bought a new electric toothbrush

People who lecture us on climate change when they are frequent fliers.
Like David Attenborough this morning.

Probably be sending a message to the dentist to tell him the condition of her teeth

And it will soon be auto-sending emails re-ordering new heads at high prices. Just like my flaming printer keeps trying to do !!!

Man Utd faffing around over the transfer of Bruno Fernandes, but that's just the Utd way.

JUST PAY THE MONEY!

You know how much Attenborough flies about these days? - rather than do his commentary as voice over...

False equivalency. If one person makes a flight and influences two people not to make a flight, that’s a net positive. Scale that up to the number of people the likes of Attenborough or Thunberg actually influence and of course it’s the right thing.

Glad it wasn't our Tash

I'll have another go while the iron is still hot.

Work shy colleagues who duck and dive all day (and go on endless fag breaks) to avoid actually doing a decent days graft.

Off subject, but some English (all British Isles, actually) actors do excellent American accents. Peter Sellers could do about a half-dozen various American regional accents. These days, so can most of them, actually.

I have no idea how Americans actors do with your various accents as I wouldn't be able to tell as well as you.

Any comments?
