Random Irritations

The said interviewee when asked a question has a pre determined reply ready and does not answer the question. This was in evidence more than normal today with the response from the lady who was questioned

Please answer the question
One of the great frustrations of modern times.

On your first point, I really like the other morning presenters who were there before kay burley and also covered her absence. Far better than her, who I can't watch.
 
Anal Americans on a Mazda forum complaining that when they close the door on their new CX30 the noise the door makes is not solid enough. Why did you buy the car then. Surely they didn't climb through the window when they went a test drive.
 
Wimbledon scheduling hurting the potential chances of the home player

Again. Every flipping year. Ok so they want the public to be able to watch the match after work but not at the expense of the player surely?! She won't be on before 8pm despite the optimistic schedule saying 4.15pm!
 
My 2 girls are 22 and 24 and I worry when they go out.

This latest stabbing away only 5 or so miles from my house.

Last week I went into the Sainsbury’s in Hornchurch, about a minute before I got there a young girl was stabbed in the car park. A crowd had gathered and people were calling out for first aiders, I have done a few 1st aid courses but did not have the confidence to walk over. Luckily others did. The guy who did it was in a car but the public had surrounded it and were stopping him leaving. Really shocking stuff. Hit me pretty hard I have to say.

Postive tests in the england crciket team, whole squad in insolation and a new squad selected. Positive test in the Scotland football team, no isolations amongst players or staff but 2 of the opposition isolated. Somthing does not make sense there.

Scotland haven’t got 11 decent footballers so them trying to get a second X1 out will be like trying to put an octopus in a carrier bag
 
Another fatal stabbing in London

2 weeks ago whilst watching telly about 10.30pm I heard lots of people screaming outside (window fully open as our flat turns into a sauna in the summer). Looked out and saw around 10 people running back and forth fighting on the street about 50 yards away so called it in.

Didn't see the stabbing itself but yeah, one of them stabbed and died. Had a detective knocking on the door last Friday to take a statement. From what I understand, there were 2 cars involved, with one of them trying to basically ram the other car and steal it.

Scary stuff.
 
My Mrs is using a new system at work that requires creation, reviewing and updating Word documents. The docs are stored in SharePoint and are created using Office 365 Word. She is really struggling with Track Changes and reviewing and accepting changes.

She gets very confused by the Admin support girl when she asks questions as I'm not sure that she really understands Office 365 Word herself and isn't good at explaining things to such as my wife who has very little experience of Office. And I am getting very frustrated and irritated trying to help as the Track and Review change interface looks completely different from what I am used to. In truth I have no idea how to do some stuff that I have found simple in the past - and there are change markups/indicators that are new to me and that I cant clear.

Has the track changes interface changed - can anyone point me to a simple guide. I've tried looking on-line of course, but as I don't know what I am looking at I can't be precise enough with my search engine queries. It's driving me nuts.
 
Is she using the web or desktop version of Word as there are some differences.

The web version doesn't have the same level of features.
 
Being CCed on emails about things I have absolutely no interest in at all.

I'll raise you, internal emails, but adding in numerous senior management (who have no relevance or need to be in the email), I assume in an attempt to either make themselves look clever/important? Not sure. Richard Heads the lot of them!

web. That may well be why ity looks so different. Though I am sure I used to use Office 365 Word and it looked different - pretty much as desktop Word has always looked - would I have been using a desktop Office 365 version of Word even though I know that Office 365 is cloud delivered (can you tell I just used Office and didn't think much about it :) )

There’s a guy in my firm like that and if we tell him we can’t get any quotes he will always say “but we’re Marsh we should be able to get quotes in anything”
