Minor Rant Thread part 7

[Glutton4...]

Now, you all know I've been waiting for a form. In the post. I was told it would take over a week. Last Thursday, was the three week mark, and I lost the plot. Not being able to trust my gob to be polite on the 'phone, I sent an email, complaining that I thought their service was sh!te, and that I really want that form and asked for them to get their collective fingers out and sort it. You get the picture?

Today, Postie delivers me an envelope from them! Happy happy, opens envelope...

Yup, you guessed it - a ruddy "We're really sorry to hear you have cause for complaint, please be assured we are taking this seriously..." letter!

STILL NO RUDDY FORM!!!!!!!!!

I REALLY REALLY want to PUNCH someone!

Companies that can't put a form in the same envelope as the apology letter............

[Glutton4...]

Trust me, BM - They are in receipt of another email...

I'm actually sooooo cross, I'm totally calm - and that's crosser than ruddy cross, I can tell you!

Hey, guess who!? I haven't been on this thread for, ooooh, must be... minutes!

Just had a text from chum at stables; remember the Nutter, who rode her horse on the road in the dark? She went out, last night in Hi-Viz gear all over her and her horse - think Blackpool illuminations on four legs!

Unfortunately, it all belonged to my mate. She used it without asking, has damaged the horse blanket and ripped the coat. Both items were nearly new, used about a dozen times at the most. My mate, understandably, is upset. Like many horse-owners she's not rolling in money. She saved hard for those things, and bought the best she could afford.

Doing well today - I'm now mad on her behalf, too.

Glad I am not in G4's company to day.

My rant..... public servants who lack the where with all to make an informed decision and can only read from the script

Just had a phone call from my MinL. My sister called in to her shop today. She's bought a pattern (£7) and it's for a little girl's sundress with full skirt. We have only the one wee girl in our family - so sundresses for my great niece. MinL tells me each dress needs 1.8m of 150cm wide fabric. My sister has bought one metre of four different fabrics, saying it's ok, Jules will make it work.

Thank you for the vote in my confidence, but I can't get a dress that needs 1.8m of fabric out of 1m of fabric no matter how clever you think I am.

Oh, and by the way? It might have been nice if you had asked me if I could make the dresses before you bought the fabrics....... Because, depending on how I feel, I might have to say no.

Just waiting for the phone to ring now.......

I'm baaaaaaaaack!

Update on the selfish c*w at the stables - she has DENIED using the gear! This, despite the fact she was seen by at least two of us.

I am calm. Really. But I do want to thump her.

Impatient people who are so angry they start seeing things in the dark.

If you want to watch tv then that's okay but don't keep turning up the volume or rewinding on the tv coz you are not paying attention when using your laptop or reading the paper.

"Oh I missed that let's go back 20 minutes"

Forums that have problems and take forever to load and then white page as you've posted a reply

I keep getting adverts for Egyptair saying I can take 2 pc's 46kg baggage allowance!
Why would I want to take 2 pc's on holiday?

[VirginVegGrower]

Schools and THEIR targets in addition to their fancily dressed up days off. Skiving eejits
