Random Irritations

EasyJet announcing boarding 15 minutes before arriving passengers start leaving the plane we are about to board. Muppets.

Almost as bad are the EasyJet customers who join the single queue for check in even though the check in for their flight hasn’t opened.

We joined a horrific queue at Malaga recently and it turned out it was full of imbeciles booked on a flight to Gatwick, who joined the single check in queue despite it quite clearly saying on the departure board that check in for their flight had not opened.

There’s plenty of space at most airports for people to wait for check in for their flight to open. Just because an airline has advised passengers to arrive at an airport early, it doesn’t follow that those passengers then have to join the check in queue. That merely adds to the problem.

Had similar yesterday, I had parked up to grab something from petrol station shop. Parked away from everything as there no spaces to park properly so just parked near the air thing but further down.

Go to leave and someone decided to pull up and park right outside the shop, so it meant having to wait for the person using the pump to finish, pay and leave

People just have no awareness.

You are generous. People just don't give a damn about anybody else?

I felt bad for the lady at pump who rushed to get me out, she had done nothing inconsiderate or wrong

And this is manifest throughout society at every level and in every context. Fortunately there are plenty of folks out there who are not of this mindset, and it isn‘t about caring, it’s about not caring.

And I try very hard to not get irritated by the behaviour and acts of others. Life is just too short, fragile and precious.

Shops that have stock levels on their website that are utter fiction when you turn up to the store

Nope out cycling, only been a week since I was last down a few of the trails and already overgrown with nettles.

That only aids drying, nothing more.

People who hassle you first thing in the morning to do something that you would be doing regardless.

Separate one - people who cry off from activities at the last minute with weak excuses.

People who call you out on a conference call and group e-mail for being wrong. And then when they admit you were right all along, only do it on a solo e-mail.

 

[Dando]

getting a snotty email from one of our placement leaders asking for "full and accurate" policy docs and then adding in the wording of a clause that needed to be in the policy.

someone is getting an email stating that if they'd read the policy then the clause they wanted was already in the policy.

Don't you mean people who've stopped you doing the job they want done because you're on the phone to them?

"Well when do you think you'll finish it?"

"Well it won't be while I'm on the phone to you...."

It's like being in the Fawlty Towers moose head scene

 

[Neilds]

People who, when they disagree with another's persons point of view, immediately start with the name calling and insults. Why can't people just agree to disagree anymore?

The NHS service we got yesterday was just awful

Mrs was worried about one of the girls so took her down polyclinic..

4 hour wait .. so they made us a hub appointment for 4pm (that's a Dr who rings u)

Got home they called to say so sorry we booked it for tomorrow by mistake

Well they called my wife even tho I gave my number

And today .. (4pm appointment) Mrs has had 2 missed calls I have had nothing and they won't call back they said as we didn't answer

That's why I gave my number and not my wife's

Madness

Stumbled on Euronews channel (never knew i had it) at lunch today.. It was news hour. Top 2 headlines
1) War in Ukraine
2) UK draws battle-lines on Northen Ireland.

If someone was watching this cold, it gives a sense that Europe is fighting a war at both flanks.... Silly politicians and headline writers

The woman (Tatum) who does the prize call on the radio (Absolute/Planet Rock) after 4pm is seriously annoying
I know it's random but........
