Random Irritations

Nothing personal but this phrase is my random irritation

I've yet to meet anyone who has shown loyalty to any company (they might be out there though but they're as rare as hens teeth) People are generally loyal to their sports team or friends/family but by paying to one supplier over another for goods/services in return is not loyalty in-itself
But do you not think it’s wrong that an existing customer gets a worse deal than a new user?
 
Agree, just went on gumtree and found countless 42" TV's and laptops for well under £100 each. Mr Clayton should've learnt to live within his means a bit more and accept you cant always have the nice new shiney things that you want and you might have to make do with some 2nd hand stuff for the time being or just save up (a lesson most of us learn after our first mistake... but he didn't)
He’s entitled to the new expensive items.......it’s the modern way;)

Absolutely wrong, it would be great if more companies rewarded length of contract in some way (but there's none of us staying with ABC instead of switching to XYZ out of loyalty. Maybe laziness or apathy, maybe even forgetfulness keep us in one place but sure isn't loyalty)

Also lots of people conveniently forget about the discount/special offer/deal they got when they first joined ABC and instead do a like for like comparison on whats happening today or resent that their deal wasn't as good as today's deal etc
But if you do seem to have a raw deal compared to tomorrows customer then absolutely query what can be done and move/switch if it isn't good enough for you
 
Flippin flat pack furniture!

Put labels on each different part, dont rely on a photocopied sheet to try and work out the various bits and where they go!

Here is today's BBC news.
If you live in the back of beyond in the Highlands, Brecon Beacons, Galloway Forrest, Yorkshire Dales or Exmoor it will take an ambulance longer to reach you...…….wow who would ever have thunk that.
 
Putting the recycling bin out at 7am this morning, knowing that it won't be emptied until after 12 and also knowing that 40+ mph winds are due anytime which will topple every bin in the street so when I get home my garden will look like a plastic recycling depot.....
I will then have a nearly full recycling bin which won't be emptied for 2 weeks.....

same here, Highland council insist the bins are out by 7am, but never collected before 9PM

the other houses up the lane put theirs out at night, but if its windy they just blow over and ends up all over the place, though luckily for us the prevailing wind blows it back in their gardens

It grinds my gears..
The bins are too top heavy. Even full it doesn't take much to topple them...
 
Feeling less than up for it today (problems sleeping recently catching up with me) and every task a struggle. Wanting it to be home time and the clock stubbornly refusing to budge. I swear it should be 12.30 and lunchtime by now

Didn't help did it 😩
 
Not quite in the importance as some on here but:-

Karaoke Builder not saving my changes again and again and again etc etc etc. It's driving me insane (at work).
 
when you take the trouble to reply to someones post and ask a question and get ignored, then the OP replies to every other post but yours, i guess i could be on more ignore buttons than i though;)
 
Just cancelled my car insurance with Churchill and they are charging a mid-term cancellation fee of £53:76.
It seems a ridiculously large admin fee.
Is there anyone in the insurance industry who can explain the justification for such a fee.
I probably expected £20-30 fee to cover costs. But not £54.
 
Got on the 17:41 out of Euston hoping to do a quick bit of shopping in Watford before I went home.

It's now 18:35, I'm still on that train, sat motionless about 200 yards outside of Euston Station. Power has been cut to the whole line so they can't even go back to let us off. This my life now - on this train. Forever.
