Managers who mend it when it's not broken and make changes for the sake of it.

Analgesic means painkiller!
perhaps you confused him

Sorry meant opiate based painkillers which I cannot take, he wouldn't prescribe anything else so I paid a fortune for less effective ones in the chemist and I am still very cross!

People who put things on Freecycle and when you go and pick it up its absolutly filthy and only fit for the bin!!!!!

Still Insurance companies..............they 'aving a laff or what ........

[OverWyreGrower]

Paying quite a bit of extra money for next day delivery for something, and getting an automated email at 5pm saying that it was not able to be delivered, with no explanation as to why.....

[Sprocket*]

Having a sore left side of the throat? Why is the right not sore too?

[julesapple]

Four or five craft fairs/ markets a week up until Christmas that we are supposed to take in turns - but he's too busy.

And, unbeknownst to me, someone turned off the chocolate temperer last night to save on energy. Ditto with the central heating...timer didn't come on until 10 mins ago and 12kg of chocolate that should be beautifully melted is still sat in two solid 6kg blocks.....it won't be melted now until teatime so I'll be up all night moulding it.

Not a happy (chocolate) bunny.....

Everything's p***ing me off this week. As usual, I'm behind with coursework... I've been accused of neglecting family, the house is a tip, I haven't done any Christmas shopping and it's usually done by now, haven't made C.cakes or puddings, the house is a tip, my walking boots fell apart and the new ones are taking ages to arrive, the house is a tip... And the weather, and the political situ., are just the finishing touches really

I am ripe for an argument and SERIOUSLY biting my tongue not to engage with the rant at smokers up ^ there

Have a cigarette and a cup o tea

Sounds like your having One Of Those Weeks where you wish the ground would just swallow you up. Horrible! My advice? Stuff the housework, stuff the xmas shopping. Forget it for a day, and chill out. Do something you really, really enjoy. I hate it when I feel bogged down, and it makes it worse when your bogged down and too stressed to do anything about it

Whinge of the day - why is it that I can't sleep for days (insomnia) then have to drown my body in sleeping tablets to sleep, and even then keep waking up throughout the night for no reason at all? And why is it that last night, the first night in a week where I felt able to sleep without nitrazepam, I decide to sleep funny and wake up in excruciating agony with a stiff neck, arm and shoulder at 5am???!!??? I swear someone just doens't want me to sleep.

Why has the left side of my face suddenly swollen up? Very uncomfortable!

[Jonesthespy]

****** moles, and Dave(my dog) who likes to dig and dig and dig and dig, in all the wrong places!!!

[CaroltheCarrot]

Boys who switch their phones off as soon as they leave the house.

Stupid old codgers who dont look and walk straight in front of your car

[binley100]

Lorry drivers who think it's ok to park their mahoosive arctic in our limited bit of road....OH and eldest are still out working and will have nowhere to park when they come home at. He's drawn his curtains and is either in there snoring his head off or has gone down the pub.

[Pumpkin Becki]

A well known upmarket furniture and soft furnishing retailer who told us their delivery driver would be with us between 3pm and 6pm today...where the chuff is he then?!? ...and I took time off work to be here.

PDF files that are an 'image' of the text, rather than 'actual' text, so they can't be highlighted, or copied and pasted. Means I'm having to print, highlight the paper, and then type out the bits I need. Haven't got time for this!!

[Pumpkin Becki]

Well known furniture/ soft furnishing retailer who can't be bothered to update me on my 'Non-Delivery' complaint that I made at 8 o'clock this morning!! Grrrrr!! And, when I rang back (in a serious wiggage) the woman said, 'well, they normally try and redeliver in the same time slot on the following day.' 'So they're coming this afternoon then?' 'Oh, I'd better check... no, they've gone back to depot and we might be able to deliver next week.'

Awesome!! Nevermind that I've taken holiday to be in for them - Double Grrrrrrrr!!!!
