Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

When you go into a shop 10 or 15 minutes before their advertised closing time and the assistants have already cashed up and are standing with their coats on ready to leave.

This assistant. Is he a P&B regular?

Pete is right, the construction industry is shite, and that's coming from a suppliers point of view. Customers who think the have the God given right to phone orders in at 4pm and want them first thing the next morning, even though Other customers have been promised their deliveries first. The sad thing is, the bosses always end up pandering to their needs, leaving me and the other lad rushing about to change everything. Then there's the ones that call in at 4.30, wanting to add on their orders, which by this time are already made up on and are loaded on the trucks. Try as I might to get out, there's a distinct lack of decent jobs on the go just now.

What merchant do you work at, Philpy? I'm needing to call in an order this afternoon, about 4ish.

If, like me, you enjoy a podcast (surely the #1 beast pastime) you'll have heard the ads for 'square space'. On evey ad, no matter who is voicing it, they can't pronounce domain (as in domain name). They say.... Freedo Main name. There's clearly something sinister at work, like some marketing guru has worked out if you slightly mispronounce something it will stick in your brain. I fee used, dirty and violated.
