Why aren't there more bins in places/public?
It's because they can't find the bins.....
Because terrorists 'could' plant bombs in them.Why aren't there more bins in places/public?
Well at least it keeps the place looking tidy.Because terrorists 'could' plant bombs in them.
TBF built in sat nav’s are shit and I don’t get why car companies still persist with them. Android and CarPlay and the job is done. Anything without those you need a phone for proper navigation and UXPeople driving cars with their phones attached to their windscreens when their cars clearly will have bluetooth, carplay and satnavs fitted as standard.
You can add People with their phones smack in front of their eyeline in cars too for that matter.

People posting on social media they have done up their house with decorations and inviting kids round for charity donations.
I might be being over cautious but...
They have to. It's to stop people from taping/copying the music.Radio presenters who constantly talk over the beginning/end of records. It's not who I want to listen to ; I want to hear the music.

Not fun working Christmas when everyone else is off but you at least want to feel its not being all dumped on to you.My Christmas rota , first and foremost I really enjoy my job and realise that as an nhs worker we have to do our share which has never bothered me . My rota for this Christmas is late on the 22nd and nightshifts the 23rd and 24th so finish Christmas morning . And back on an early the 27th , I’ve got a variety of shifts in between and an early nye so no essentially the only day off I have is Boxing Day . The wife wants to go to Liverpool for Christmas so are going to have to travel up first thing then come back Boxing Day afternoon . Gonna have to have a chat with someone I think
Ohhh that’s not nice , I remember one Christmas Eve where I was asked to start work at midnight till 6 . I said I I’d compromise and start at 10pm it got to 3am and was told I could go home fucking pointlessNot fun working Christmas when everyone else is off but you at least want to feel its not being all dumped on to you.
One place I worked there was 3 of us in a team. Between Christmas and new year there were 3 days back in the office that needed to be covered, so one day each right? As they both had kids I said they could pick first and I'd cover the day left. Somehow that got translated into them both getting all 3 days off and me being the only one in. I was not happy.
I guess it's just an industry practiseIn 2024? With YouTube being a thing?

Good idea that. The one I hate is when you work somewhere that decides to shut between Xmas and New Year as they have no work but then take it off your annual leave.It unique cos my place is based in Leicester and has a high Asian employee count, but we’re about to trial a bank holiday swap system where people who don’t celebrate Christmas can have another holiday off instead. Nice and woke but also spreads the staffing around much better from a starting point.
Personally I’ve always worked every day over Christmas that I don’t have kids. Love being in when it’s quiet and using the time elsewhere.
Enforced leave taking is a pain.Good idea that. The one I hate is when you work somewhere that decides to shut between Xmas and New Year as they have no work but then take it off your annual leave.
I had one where i had to go on the xmas lunch/afternoon, and the boss took it out of my holiday when i leftGood idea that. The one I hate is when you work somewhere that decides to shut between Xmas and New Year as they have no work but then take it off your annual leave.
Reminds me, at the height of Beatlemania their image was on everything you could buy from coffee tables to rubbish bins and none of it was licenced.Corporate jobsworths.
Went to the M&M store with my nine year old. Getting custom m&ms is her favourite thing in the world so we have to do it every time.
Queued for ages, got to the front, she’s a huge Taylor Swift fan and wanted Taylor Swift M&Ms (no judgement) did the photo thing handed it to the cashier and he refused to print them because they don’t have the rights to Taylor Swifts image.
Along with this, loud music blasting out over the speakers. If I wanted music I'd go to a disco (showing my age!).Kids in restaurants.
I'm very hungover and don't want to hear your little brat having a tantrum cus the beans have touched the bacon, or it throwing cutlery on the floor. Luckily it stormed out afterwards.
It's just development of the frontal lobe. Happens to all of us. Twice.Kids in restaurants.

This appears to be a UK problem. We go to France reasonably regularly, and when we eat out, we are frequently in the company of families with kids, even pre-school age, who sit up to the table, eat the same food as their parents (not some shit with chips and beans), and join in the conversation. Not running around, screaming or using electronic devices! It is so bloody refreshing. Must be something about parenting skills, as i suspect they insist on this at home as well.Kids in restaurants.

I was in a restaurant the other month where the family (parents and 2 primary school aged kids) came in, sat down and all sat on their phones, for more or less the entire time they were there.Ah the old tinny noise coming from phones because their kid can't eat a meal without having an electronic device in their hand.
It’s like the businesses who just make their customer service departments impossible to reach so it’s not worth the hassle of complaining. Just complete acceptance that they’re useless."ring at 8am if you want an appointment"
Why not just fucking book one for people who can't sit on the phone at 8am? Useless cunts.

What I’m saying is I suspect it’s intentional to stop every but the most determined making an appointment because they know they can’t cope with demand.It's dog shit. It's not 1954.
Why not let me choose an appointment online and book it. Then I can tell work when it will be.
I can book literally everything else, why not a doctor's appointment?
