    Things that annoy you

    I think countdown clocks are fantastic. They have them on the traffic phases in India, so drivers aren't tempted to jump the lights as they know their turn will come. Doesn't stop the roads being utter chaos though!!

    The Apprentice 2018

    Looked like Camilla had developed an allergy to her nuts with those lip fillers- ugh! Maybe she got the idea from lying on the massive inflatable vagina at the bodybuilding show! As for the fear of showing Sabrina’s arse or cameltoe, don’t get me started! They were happy for the model to do it!

    All of these, and local authorities who have no fucking clue how long it takes even old people to cross the road at a set of lights. The set on Warwick Road in Kenilworth near the Earl of Clarendon pub are particularly bad. Even wobbly old duffers are about 30 yards away by the time the traffic...

    You’ve probably heard how quickly an entire cruise ship can go down with something like norovirus. The same can happen at work!!

    Things that annoy you

    Sure, there’s ill and ill! If you have a case of man-flu you could quite possibly do a Day’s work but going to the office or wherever would both make you feel worse and risk passing it round the entire workforce thus incurring their wrath and reducing overall productivity. If you can’t manage to...

    Things that annoy you

    In my view, that is absolutely the right thing to do, as per my earlier post.

    The Apprentice 2018

    If interviewers treated candidates like that in the real world, they'd be up before an employment tribunal quicker than you could say nut-milk!

    I think indicators are possibly exempt, by some quirk of law!

    Things that annoy you

    Spot on! Reduces the overall output of the office, as well as pissing everyone off when they go down with it. If you are in a job where people are able to work from home (accessing work systems from a work-provided laptop, or their own home PC), then they would still be able to be productive...

    Things that annoy you

    Ikea last Sunday morning (about 12.30 or so), there were most of the self-service express checkouts open, but if you had anything more than 15 items or anything sizeable, there were TWO out of the TEN operator tills open. Queues were mahoosive!

    New ‘City’ flag

    But apart from concrete, what DID the Romans ever do for us?!

    New ‘City’ flag

    It wasn’t designed by the council, but by listeners of BBC C&W, so that might tell you something about the standard! I think it’s *OK* but don’t like it being so similar to the Council branding and the building society. Would’ve preferred an elephant and castle on a red and green background but...

    Things that annoy you

    I think the most infuriating management-speak bollocks is when you're in a meeting and the Director says "can we discuss this off-line?"!!!! How fucking more "off-line" can you be when talking face-to-face FFS??!!! Our directorate has a "business update" this afternoon, so doubtless i'll be...

    The Apprentice 2018

    I was wondering if they knew in advance that they’d have to pitch to the Co-op. They were never going to order the stuff more suited to Ann Summers! Thought Sabrina looked best in the pyjama scene with Lord S at the start....

    Things that annoy you

    “Can I have...” is absolutely correct, Tommy, and is what the “can I get” brigade actually mean! I’d like to flag up (use of which I’ve realised may itself enrage some of you) the increasing adoption of “gotten” instead of “got”, even among seemingly otherwise sane English people! Americanising...
