you would turn left here, except you can't as they've blocked off the left hand turn

You turn off the slip road off the ring road I think? I usually park there as it's cheaper.

When you buy an alarm clock and you have to set the time manually after a power outage. It's 2025 FFS.

An electronic device is supposed to work without power?

 

[SBAndy]

Settling down for an early night only for the little one to start coughing that much he eventually makes himself sick in the cot and you have to bath him. Cheers mate.

No it's meant to set the time automatically and remember my alarms

See also mullets and what I’d call a pedo tash. Or that fucking ugly fringe haircut on women:

Essentially the Aussie rugby team!

Longford and holbrooks both at a stand still because of roadworks. 0.5 miles in 35 minutes so far.

Somebody thought it was a good idea to close one road while the next one is already heavily hammered with road works.

Completely gridlocked

Pretty well the same up the Foleshill on match nights

The attention seeking wankers out for "strolls" in the middle of the storm in Ireland. Oh look how "hardiest" we are.

Hope a roof slate pings them on their bonce.

Taking the dog for a walk over Brownshill green / coundon and the amount of human poo in the woods! I assume it’s human unless people are taking their pet bears for a walk! Atleast pick the thing up you filthy bastard

Wtf

 

[ccfc922]

Probably said this 100 times, but the fucking idiots who go near the CBS on matchday then moan about the traffic.

Surely they know when the games are on even if they're not into football?

Rain affected?

What do you mean? People taking shits in the woods because it’s raining?

No washed out now so hard to tell.

Oh. Nah, looked like it had been there a few days! Always see it by the Road entrance to Amazon, coundon wedge road

Mostly its homeless or junkie types

Yeah that's the ones I'm mainly on about, just can't get my head around it.

I'd understand get there for 3 and do your shopping, gone by FT but not coming out when 28k people are trying to leave an area.

Doing a Self Assessment Return, FML.

Again, Sunday League football thinking it's Premier League.

Even more are all over Tiktok filming games like they are in the Premier League, players doing choreographed celebrations and stuff.

It's weird.

People at work calling an email a “note”

People in supermarkets who take whole weeks worth of shopping into self checkout. Limit it to 10 items.

What about in the supermarkets that have removed traditional checkouts and replaced them self checkouts, ie most of them? They want more customers to use the self checkouts hence the bigger packing areas.

 

[fernandopartridge]

People referring to some work as a 'piece'. "I'm doing the Manchester piece". Get fucked.

You sure they are on about work?

I’ve never been to a decent sized supermarket that has removed traditional checkouts.

this too. The worst of the corporate jargon. Where did it even come from?

Another one “let’s take this offline” when they mean let’s take it off this call, but talk about it in a separate call. It’s not offline then is it?!

 

[Nick]

Maybe not removed, just having 1 or 2 people staffing them is another issue though.

Go to the Tesco at the Ricoh on a Sunday, barely anybody working on checkouts.

Same at the Asda near me, now only 2 actual tills. Wouldn't be so bad but there's never any staff, or at most one person, covering the never ending errors on the self checkouts so its just a huge bottleneck of people stood there unable to do anything.

I've had people (my Director being a prime example) saying "let's take this offline" (meaning an online meeting) in an in-person (i.e. offline) meeting. Beyond ridicule!

 

[ccfctommy]

People who call you on Teams, out of the blue.

Am I supposed to answer you? In a crowded office!?

The Northern supermarket - Booths ? Has put people back on the tills - too much thievery

The management of supermarkets think that staff are wasted sitting at checkouts waiting for customers when they could be stocking shelves so they think they can do both and then they can try to cut the number of staff required.

I did see some senior police bod saying that the supermarkets should stop complaining about the rise in shoplifting if they won't employ staff.

Waitrose and Lidl have no self service machines that take cash (at least in the branches I've been to) so you just get long queues at any till where they take cash and the self service tills are under utilised.

It's weird because it's the same machine so they have to have actively removed that facility. if they've got staff to empty the ones that do take cash it can't be that much more work to have them all take cash.
