Two things today have ticked me off today. First he fish tank today
We are decorating the dining room and the fish tank was on a massive oak book case. So to move the book case means emptying the fish tank. 5 buckets later and it time to lift the fish tank. So OH one end and I'm at the other we lifted it ok but just as we went to put it down on the floor water started poring out my side piece.
So had to rush out and get a new tank. Yet another expense.
My second rant is if my OH doesn't stop switching the dinning room light on and off to admire his handy work then I swear I am going to take the light bulbs out and hide them away.

Grrrr I could scream right now!!!!! The hospital has phoned me up saying I cannot start now on the 17th November because there is not enough information on my reference. And now I have to wait until they contact my manager and find out more about me. Apparently this could take a few week. They told me I need to retract my resignation form, but I have a feeling my manager will not want me to stay.

To be honest I do not want to stay there after they treat me like crap. But I also can't afford not to work.

Being made to feel guilty for not working today. It's my day off and I'm not paid to work today so stop texting me with work questions.
Sympathies Cariann.

Why do shops send out leaflets stating half price toy sales when they have none in stock?

[noviceveggrower]

The little S**t who drove through a very large puddle on purpose drenching my two kids.

Carpets, that 'eat' the little back bits of earrings when you drop one on the floor! Where do they disappear to?

[lottie dolly]

my rant is,have you thought about a magnet,or a newly cleaned out hover,then you can go dust fishing

[Glutton4...]

Fireworks. Again.

[BertieFox]

Hunters on a Sunday who ignore the rule about firing directly in the direction of properties! Was sitting in my new conservatory tending the plants when 'BANG!!' and lead starts raining down on the new polycarbonate roof.

Anybody know where I can get a job lot of land mines to put in the field above our property?

[VolesAteMyPeas]

Toddlers who won't eat! Two hour stand-off. All entertainment withdrawn until dinner consumed. EVERY NIGHT. Why, why, why? I'm not feeding the little bu**er dog food or anything! It's things he likes! I have earache from all the screaming and whining.
Need............wine............n...o.....w...............(whimper).

[alldigging]

Fireworks. Again.

I think they'd moved onto some bigger explosives last night. Horrible horrible noise on and off all evening.

[Hazel at the Hill]

Yes, demolition contractors taking down the old factory over the back, I appreciate that you have a job to do; so I can overlook the noise of the machinery even when in continues on a Sunday.

But would it have killed you to stop for the two minute silence?
