Surfer_Rosa Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Well the woman who was behind me stopped to check I was alright, and her young son compared it to a bit in "The Transporter or something". I think he was just trying to make me feel better...Personally I'd class it as utterly shite, but then it is my car, so I'm strugglong to see it as anything better.

Nev Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 One can imagine.I don't drive myself but my dad had what sounds an ace accident a couple of years back. On a back road, a car was coming the other way, so he hit the brake to scrub off some speed. The car didn't like it, hit a verge, slid along the road on it's side before hitting the verge in the passing place on the other side of the road and righting itself.The boy coming the other way stopped, and said "Well, that was spectacular". Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 I hate the word "audit" at work, and how it means a whole manner of shitty boring things. I'm currently having to take note of every item of furniture on three floors, and make extra special note if a chair has been moved from one desk to another, as this is just completely unacceptable!I also hate posters about "tackling" issues, and then there's a picture of a couple of footballers, one of them committing to a sliding tackle. Fuck you and your tacky graphic imagery, you cunts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 It actually annoys me more than it should when someone mentions how they apparently just spat tea all over their computer screen/keyboard/desk/parents at something funny on the internet. I just don't get it. How did you even manage that? There seems to be quite a high number of people who take a sip of tea at the very moment they read a funny. If this is even true, I feel there is a lack of oral control all round. No matter how funny I find something, I can usually keep control of any liquid in my mouth. I think I keep in mind how expensive my laptop was. I don't want to soak the innards of my computer in saliva and hot drink from being a chuckling tit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Jo-D Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 NO ONE IS FISHING FOR ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!I like a bit of fishing which remoinds me of tv tonight!!I hate the word "audit" at work, and how it means a whole manner of shitty boring things.

Fuck you and your tacky graphic imagery, you cunts.I also hate Audit at work, not only do they seem to appear at the worst possible time of year (normally year end) it also means you can't just get on with day-to-day work without people hassling you all the time, even when you are trying to eat your lunch....should really just start talking with mouth full and cough food all over them, should make them think twice the next time.We have Motivational pictures all over my work, they suck!What is really annoying my just now tho is that "118 247...blah blah blah directory heaven" advert that is on tv/radio ahhhhhh SHUT UP!!!

KittyCat Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 My current pet hates are being unemployed due to a previous manager being a dick and pretty much forcing me to quit! Also, applying for jobs and then the company not getting back to you, even if it's just to say you've not been sucessful. It's just common curtesy to reply, even a quick e-mail would suffice.

KittyCat Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Well if he forced you to quit, are you doing something about it?Lodged a formal complaint with the agency I was employed by but thus far, I've had no response. I don't think anything will happen but I've made the situation clear to them, etc.To be honest, from the sounds of things, he's getting his comuppence as other members of staff have walked as well.

Agency workers tend to get a shitty deal, but I'd pursue a constructive dismissal case on principle, if only to annoy the cunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agency workers tend to get a shitty deal, but I'd pursue a constructive dismissal case on principle, if only to annoy the cunt.Yup, I doubt anything will happen. I mainly made the complaint out of principle. To be honest, I wouldnt waste the time and effort on a constructive dismissal case. The cunt just isn't worth it. The temp that was sent in as my replacement has already walked. Haha! The place has the highest employee turnover rate I've ever seen.

Soda Jerk Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Since quitting my job, due to it being full of strangely unprofessional crooks and cowboys, I too have had to take a paycut now I'm back into the temping field. Sucks bad. Especially not getting paid when I take afternoons off for interviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittyCat Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 This is happening a lot just now. In fairness to the people dealing with the vacancies, it's horrendous just now. I was told by one of the agencies that they're getting as many as 100 applicants for one position in IT... and that's specialist. I hate to see the figures for more general roles. Yeah, it is understandable but none-the-less, rather annoying. Yeah, one of the jobs I've applied for had 120 applicants I got told. It's pretty crazy.
