I currently work and have worked shifts for the majority of my working life but a 3am finish? That sets you up for trouble in BST.

With you on this I get home about 3:30am and they are just starting and after I have had a shower and head iff upstairs I can hear them and see the sky starting to get lighter.
Not sure if it might help but some people stand a stone owl in their garden and this keeps most birds away.4:12am today I was woken by the fuckers. Closed all windows but could still hear them. Ended up going outside to study where the noise was coming from (and make sure there wasn’t a nest in our roof/guttering!).

Every idiot in the company feeling the need to say goodbye every day on Teams. As if that wasn’t bad enough we’ve now got everyone replying to each other individually, it’s like the bloody Waltons.
Also people announcing they’ve finished for the day when I’ll be working for hours.

Its made up really easy to see who is a management suck up. Although disappointingly it seems there's only a couple of us who aren't.Similarly, I've noticed at our place a distinct increase in positive stroking, so that every progress report given, whether it's a less than startling work and / or has no obvious value outcome, gets a chorus of "really great update", "great news" and "really excellent", when it's very less than excellent or great.
The idle sods who leave rubbish behind after a day out. On the Bank Holiday weekend, the local council cleared 25 tons of rubbish from Bournemouth beach. I just can't get my head round the attitude of people who do that.
Seems to be a influx of people adding him/his and she/her after their name on social media and professional profiles
FFS why?

Used to have this view with Fag breaks - was at least 40 mins in the day not lunchtime - muggins here answering their phones - guess those lazy ones are working from home creating pollution for themselves but taking longer !The school run but not for the normal reasons. Not because of the traffic chaos it causes with parents thinking its a total free for all or the fact that I live less than 500 metres from a school yet see people loading their kids into the car every morning to drive them the massive, unwalkable, distance.
The thing that annoys me is how, since covid started, it has become acceptable for people at work to just say 'school run' twice a day and disappear for an hour a time. Fair enough that people had child care to deal with when they suddenly had their kids at home all day but what's different now to pre-pandemic? That's basically a day and a half of work a week people are missing.
If I disappeared from work for a couple of hours a day to take the dog out I'd pretty quickly be getting a told to stop.

Used to have this moan about folks who moaned about those that took fag breaks and then returned to continue wok, whilst others were still hanging around the cooler/canteen or else sitting in breakout areas discussing work or else surfing on the internet. Interestingly, smokers were usually the type that delivered whilst the others were still designing their email signatures, arranging their desks and moaning about folks who smoked.
Always managed between 8-10 a day while doing my 22000-25000 step day.

Having a tug that many times can be bad for your health - you know repetitive strain syndromeAlways managed between 8-10 a day while doing my 22000-25000 step day.
You lot need to get creative, I have 2 half hour toilet breaks a day, 2 40 minute breaks, about 10 I go for a wander for about an hour, then at 2 I have a coffee break. My boss spends 8 hours a day in his office watching YouTube or sleeping.
Alright for some! I might have underestimated the time some people are taking on the school run. Started work at 8am today, supposed to be a team meeting at 8:30am but someone was missing as they were 'on the school run' which they got back from at 10:25am!!!Currently sun bathing
You won't be sending a begging letter then?Old fuckers and lottery tickets + scratch cards in Tesco’s , stood behind some guy just now, pissing about with checking lotto tickets and picking every other fucking scratch card, so I left and went a picked up my few bits, paid for them and came back to the kiosk, the same prick was still stood there fucking about! Wtf can possible take 10 minutes when doing this??? Boils my fucking piss!!!!
You know what really fucks me off similar to this - people at the check in/bag drop counter in airports. Honest question - what the fuck are you talking about? Like literally what is the conversation you are having which means it takes ten minutes? Do people still just walk up to the counters and ask what tickets they have available and buy them?Old fuckers and lottery tickets + scratch cards in Tesco’s , stood behind some guy just now, pissing about with checking lotto tickets and picking every other fucking scratch card, so I left and went a picked up my few bits, paid for them and came back to the kiosk, the same prick was still stood there fucking about!

I walk up (on the rare occasion im not allowed to check in online or have to drop a bag or whatever) - passport ready, any tickets i have ready, ready to put the bag on the thing, done. In about 2 minutes. Is there something im missing? Genuinely, is there something that other people talk about or a part of the process that im not involved in...i'd love to know if anyone knows
I get disproportionately angry at that shit
I'm seeing loads of people with the green lanyard around their necks. The ones that make you exempt from wearing a face mast. Half of them are just fat. It's all a blag, ain't it?
As soon as they made it self certified and said you couldn't be challenged if you said you were exempt it was obvious what was going to happen.I'm seeing loads of people with the green lanyard around their necks.
