Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Petty thing that gets on my nerves: my phone thinks I mean "abs" every time I swipe in "and". How often am I likely to need to use "abs" in a text? Why would it choose that over "and". Ducking piece of sit. Andsolutely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 No, men don't bring new babies into the office! Men just bring in a photo on their first day back after paternity leave and spend the next 5 years looking shattered and falling asleep at their desk. What kind of oddball men do you work with? This. I got moaned at by my team (majority are women) at work for not bringing my daughter in just after she was born. The are 2 reasons, 1) I don't particularly like any of them and 2) there is no way I am going on to work when I have time off. f**k that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swarley Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Fuckwits who put their hands out to signal the bus to stop at y he very last second forcing the driver to perform an emergency stop.

Then not even thanking the driver for stopping. Or folk who get up at the stop and make it look like they're going to stop the bus but suddenly think "oh wait, that's not mine" and let it by, forcing you to do exactly what's quoted above. If it stops at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zetterlund Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 News sites and others which have become awash with links to stories such as "This man just wanted to buy an ice cream for his kid. You'll be amazed what happened next" or "A woman took her little girl to play in the park. What happened next was incredible". Just f**k off. If you're not going to at least have a proper headline on a story I'm not going to bother reading it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Ok, you're clearly too honest for that. Are you above making up family members abs having them bumped off in all manner of unusual ways, such as diseases so rare they have no name but need lots of research and awareness campaigns to make sure no one else has to suffer the way your family have? I'm just thinking of you, mate. It's not right that you should miss out on your fair share of the collection pot. Ha. I now feel slightly bad because my Dad died several years ago and my work sent a wreath. I feel bad because the shop they got it from refused to refund it when I brought it back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there's no point making up sick relatives if they're sending wreaths. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swarley Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 He's ripping the piss out of all of you. A true master of the art. Agree with this. There's no way I'd have contributed to his 2nd leaving collection. I remember I was only in my current job for about a week when I was passed the collection envelope for some girl who was leaving to have a baby. Less than a week, I hadn't even met her, why the hell would I wish her well and give her money? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoodless Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Agree with the above. But at the end of the day he doesn't ask for this. It's the middle aged housewife types in the office who also feel the need to send flowers to anyone who's off sick long enough to require a sick line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myself and another couple of colleagues suggested we ask him for the money back the 2nd time he returned. I honestly thought he would have handed the money back, I know I would have. He was only gone 2 months. worst thing was it was an internal move. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
