Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

Teenage restaurant bar staff.

Actually that's a bit unfair on them, so I'll direct my minor rage in the direction of their management who can't train them.

Which lagers do you have?

Dunno, I'll need to ask.

 

What wines do you have?

Red and white, I think.

Which type of red?

Dunno, I'll need to ask .

 

Do you have non alcoholic drinks?

Dunno, I'll need to ask.

 

Somebody please teach them the basics.

Overheard at a football hospitality suite. What wines do you have? Answer...both.

I don't know what's worse someone expecting a choice of different reds or whites at a low level football ground or the staff limitations.

Another was my mate bringing his 18 year old son into our local old man's bar. Asked what he wanted and answered,"what do they sell"?

I remember when wines were black and blue.

People that get other people to be their “talking piece” and hide behind other people rather than addressing problems themselves like an adult.

My friend says this a ridiculous take.

Your friend it correct. My grandad always said to me “Sometimes the things that you’re scared of/worried about are thing things you need to do”you’re never going to get very far in life if you have others doing your dirty work and you don’t face your own battles.You find a lot of these people that hide behind others don’t ever mature in life as my gran would say “if they’ve been breastfed there whole life”
